    Nosler brass.

    Is clean brass more accurate at distance?

    Nosler brass.

    I don’t even clean my brass anymore. 🤣

    Nosler brass.

    I did that when I first started reloading. I never noticed it made a difference, so I haven’t done it since.

    7mm-08 powder start

    Thanks for the info. I only develop loads at my normal hunting temps and never shoot in the summer.

    7mm-08 powder start

    For those that have seen temp issues with Big Game, what were the details? I’ve been shooting it for several years now with no temp issues.

    Start and finish with Big Game. Wake that 7-08 up.

    New guy rain gear question???

    A rain suit is pointless for me. I prefer to use a SnugPak poncho for my western hunts. It keeps me and my pack dry and allows for the most airflow. Works very well for me.

    Ramshot Big Game Powder

    I don’t know. It’s been pretty easy to get for me. Maybe you should try something different, if what you’re doing isn’t giving you what you want. I didn’t waste my Big Game powder on my 120 grain NBT load. I got 3000fps using Varget and that was the speed I was looking for and called it good.

    Ramshot Big Game Powder

    I’m getting 2850fps from a factory 20” barrel in my 7-08 with 140 grain Accubonds.

    Pin distance

    For a 3 pin, 30, 40, and 50. Unless you have the slowest bow in the world, there’s zero reason to have your top pin closer than 30 yards. I shoot one pin set on 30 yards and can shoot 0-40 yards without touching my dial and still hold on the deer.

    280 AI load

    I want all the velocity I can get. 3 grains is alot. Some will come on here and say, I’ll take accuracy over velocity. I haven’t found it difficult to get both with any of the rifles that I load for. Again, if you’re satisfied with it, then chrono it and hunt it.

    280 AI load

    If you are happy with it, then use it. Personally, I wouldn’t be happy being that far from a max load. Also, I would verify velocity with a chronograph.

    Beginner Guide to Reloading - What equipment did you upgrade early on?

    Get an electronic powder dispenser and and scale combo. A balance beam scale is the worst thing ever invented. I would quit reloading if I had to go back to that slow and inconsistent piece of crap beam scales. A prep station is very handy. No worry about a tumbler, it’s definitely not...

    Hunt a crappy unit or stay home

    I’d be hard pressed to hunt a bad area just to be hunting. I’d pass on that every time. I get to hunt 6 months out of the year, already. I’m not gonna waste my time and money on a bad area.

    Who is shooting an arrow over 600 gr?

    I’m holding dead on my target. The trick pin is like 12” low or something like that.

    Who is shooting an arrow over 600 gr?

    Heck no, I don’t do the trick pin deal. That has never made any sense to me.

    Summer Solstice, here today and gone tomorrow

    Yep. Summer sux. Seasonal depression is real. 🤣

    Summer Solstice, here today and gone tomorrow

    I hate summer. Getting dark at 5pm can’t get here soon enough.

    Who is shooting an arrow over 600 gr?

    For context: I use a single pin sight and I set it up for maximum point blank range. My setup allows me to get 0-40 yards while still holding on hair with my pin set at 30 yards. I halved my distance(15 yards) cause I knew this would be the peak of my trajectory. I picked an arrow weight...

    Where do your priorities lie? A (minor) reloading dilemma...

    Neither is your practice loads. Lol
