    Micky Duck liked post by Pommy On thread : Matches with hunting bullets
    I used to do that but have kind of stopped and tend to do a bit more research on the specific bullets I'm considering. Manufacturers know that BC sells, so there's been a bit of a push towards...

    How far do you shoot? It's good to anchor goats to avoid the death screams. I found my 1:12 really started struggling to do that past 200m because the light bullets are really slowing down. 1:8...

    Lyman 50th is the best all rounder I reckon. It's largely brand agnostic. The most important bit, if you don't have a mentor (and even then if they're just going to teach you their bad habits), is...

    Hermitage liked post by Pommy On thread : 300 wsm vs 300 win mag at 22 inches
    If handloading, probably the 300WM. It's got more powder space for extra horsepower, pressures being roughly equal. In factory ammo, pressures are not equal, WSM is loaded hotter closing the gap...

    Micky Duck liked post by Pommy On thread : Full length resizing 7mm Rem Mag problem
    Sounds a bit spurious. Almost like they're trying to get you to buy their shell holders. Whether you adjust the height of the die or use a different shell holder to adjust the height of the case,...

    Normal. When the brass is formed at the factory, that body-shoulder junction is going to be a little rounded. When you fire it, it'll pop out and form to the inside of the chamber (mostly). This is a...

    I got a smaller ES using magnums. Didn't make much difference to velocity. Velocity dropped to 2760-2790 in a factory 24" barrel. No info on anything shorter sorry.

    Micky Duck liked post by Pommy On thread : 300 Win Mag or 300WSM?
    There's not a lot in it in terms of performance when comparing factory ammo. The WSM uses less powder and has a more efficient case design, sure - but it's also loaded to higher pressure and that's...

    Moa Hunter liked post by Pommy On thread : Long Range Shooting and TBR
    The way I've had it explained to me is that TBR doesn't account for the bullet having to push through the LOS distance of air. An uphill 600m shot might have a TBR of 550m but the bullet's still got...
