Using a target bullet on game works better because the people who "design" game bullets talk a power of shit. You can't beat a lead core un-bonded to a thin copper jacket. I would use ELDMs (as a...

A word of caution about the BTs. I used them in my 300WM and they were great. Accurate and deadly. I tried them in my short (16") 308 and they weren't so good. Still accurate but a tad harder than I...

Greetings Superdriver, Sounds as though you have a long throat. Mine has and shoots flat base projectiles better than boat tails, from sub Moa to Moa plus. The point of impact does seem to move...

44.5gr 2208 gives me 2680 fps from a 20" for the 169ge TMK. Obviously work up from below but try that load. SAAMI spec. 0.5MOA and doesnt feel like a 308 to shoot. Very soft.

3-9x is a bit "old school" now as most manufactures use a bigger zoom range than 3x. Nothing wrong with them but 2-10x is also worth a look. Bushnell Elite 4200 2-10x is good for the money as are the...
