I decided I wasn’t happy with the reloder 23 load as it was so compressed and a real art to loading each round to get enough powder in there. I have a heap of 140 eldm and managed to get my grubby...

I've found the 140 ELD-M to be excellent jap medicine in open country. Load them just over 2,800 fps with RE-16 for .5 MOA. Get 2,900 fps with the same bullet with RE-26 but want to keep barrel wear...

Tnankie, Given your in Australia and chasing Sambar or Fallow are your main deer species you want a .30 cal to cover both. A 7mm mag is ok but a .30-06 or .30 mag is what you want. Unless...
