    Let’s talk about the 243win

    I assume there was not a exit?

    Let’s talk about the 243win

    That’s awesome to hear and the 80 TTSX will be loaded in my wife’s rifle next season. Ran out of time and money this season. I had the partitions on hand loaded them to max and they shot really well. But can’t find them anymore and all my other rifles are loaded with coppers.

    Bullet Failure?

    Did you figure out what twist your rifle has?

    Good I like the passion. I just wanted the 243 to get some love!

    That would be straight lightning on deer.

    Let’s talk about the 243win

    There really seems to be a trend that heavy is the only way. I think the 1:10 twist has crippled the 243win compared to the other 6mms. Unfortunately the two I bought are the 1:10s. But I’m ok with a lighter bullet going stupid fast.

    Let’s talk about the 243win

    With today’s new 6mms shooting heavy bullets is the 243win even relevant? I think it is but it’s not talked about anymore it seems. Recently picked up two tikka compacts in 243win for dirt cheap. Pulling the barrel on one and the other went to my wife. I have to say impressed with this rifle...

    250 Barnes tez

    I’ve used them on deer with two pellets of white hots. Bang flop. Can’t speak to elk but I’d probably go to 3 pellets for a little more range or power.

    Ruger American Ranch - Which Caliber?

    7.62x39 is the obvious choice. Cheap plinking ammo and 123gr TSX w/ 29.5grs +/- more or less of an unknown powder = 2500fps at the muzzle. Deadly on deer. Naw 7.62x39 is my favorite of the ranch rifles but probably not the best these days. What did you end up with???

    First deer hunt of the year tomorrow

    Well? How’d it go?

    Looking for suggestions on a new caliber

    25-06 is a deer cartridge. But my choice would be a 7mm08. It’s a fantastic cartridge.

    Introduction to Muzzleloading

    I agree. My CVA really like mag shotgun primers.

    Introduction to Muzzleloading

    I don’t load powder or anything. But I pop a couple primers to fowl the barrel. I’ve noticed I get better first shot accuracy if the barrels dirty.

    Introduction to Muzzleloading

    Go buy a cva(I really like the wolf), some white hots, some Barnes 250s bullets, some primers and a kit with patches bore butter and cleaner. I clean my barrel every three shots during sight in. Store clean with a little bore butter. Wipe barrel out then pop a couple primers to season the bore...

    .308 win bullet selection for new reloader

    I’ve got a pretty accurate and spicy load using the Barnes 130gr TTSX and BL-C2. 3150fps.

    A Proper Sheep Rifle

    Never hunted sheep and probably never will but I’ve always thought a Tikka in 6.5PRC with 127LRXs at Mach Jesus sounds right to me.

    Lever Monday...post em up

    Nope it’s a 30WCF! 😉 same thing. Last I had it out I was working on a spicy load using leverevolution and hornady 140 monoflexs. Velocities we’re looking good.
