brokfut,
I am curious who told you that your not going to decrease your velocity using moly coated bullets.
I have been using moly coated and Dansak (similar) coated bullets for about 5 years now. I Dansak coat my own. If memory serves me correctly I use 4 grains of powder for every 2lbs of...

650 yards? Wow! For shooting an elk that far I think you might want to consider a 338 Ultra Mag or a 30-378 Weatherby. Even then I think it would be too far. 400 yards is do-able, 450 yards MAYBE, but I'd save the 650 yard...

I just returned from a Sportsmans show about an hour ago. I talked with several outfitters/booking agents and land owners in South Africa. All of the ones I talked to offered various "packages" for various game but they all had one thing in common, other then the hunts were all in South Africa...

Deerslayer,
The 3 week stint was back in 1991 when I was a BIT younger and a LOT thinner.
I have some time yet before I have to make a decision if I am going back this fall or not. The buddy I went with last year has offered a return this year. Depending on my schedule I may go back this...
Oak, Deerslayer and others,
I guess I messed that up. I didn't mean to be negative in any way, shape or form
I surely didn't mean to imply that CO has tiny elk or they don't have elk that can grow some nice racks.
It is so different from the regulations back here that its all somewhat...
Hello All,
I don't want to get into any battle over who, when, where, why or how BUT I do have some input
Seems to me if the selling of additional tags doesn't/didn't accomplish CO's harvest goals then making the seasons longer may work better. I elk hunted last fall in CO for elk and the...

Not to be overly nosey, but what cartridge are you talking about with regards to the 338...

shaky, I didn't mean anything by saying that your bullets resembled the Barnes Triple Shock, just stating what they look like. Do you offer any specials on some test bullets to see how they perform? I would be interested in the .25...

I haven't seen the bullet your talking about.

I used to use a 180gr BT in my 300 win mag. They do shoot flat and accurate.
Since I now make my own bullets, I use them. I would look kind of silly not using my own bullets.
Here is the load I use in a 300 win mag:
159gr EXP Groove Bullet
79gr of Rel 22
CCI-BR2 Primer
Norma Case
3.505 OAL...
Hello all,
