    Shot a hind a few years back. When butchering it, recovered a bonus bullet that had broken its femur previously. It was resting up against the bone encased in scar and connective tissue. The bone was...

    What made him pick AR2207? It's completely the wrong powder for a 7mm08. Much too fast burning. There will be "an amount" which would be ok to use. But it's going to be small. And it won't give...

    "I think it can handle it" probably isn't good enough in this instance. Copy/paste from BAT's website: "Action body is made with a combination of Aircraft grade billet 7075-T6 Aluminum and...

    The Mini comes in 450 Bushmaster. That's based off of the 284 Win case and has the same .473 head. So it'll have a 308 bolt face. That said, the bushmater has a pressure limit of 38,000psi which...

    I've helped out a couple of people who had gotten the GameChangers. One in 6mm and one in 7mm. They were fussy bullets in both - extremely sensitive to seating depth, far more so than powder charge -...

    I'd say it's a bit too slow. Iirc, it's a tad slower than 2208. In my experience, the slow for calibre ball powders with light bullets burn like coal (which isn't great for consistency or accuracy)...

    If you can get yourself a redding body die, it's possible to run a loaded round through them just to nudge the shoulder a touch. They might not make one for something so unusual though.

    I find them alright out to maybe a couple hundred metres - though it depends on how good your eyesight is. Beyond 200m, I don't feel comfortable that I'm getting a precise enough point of aim. ...
