I have bigger and smaller calibers, but hands down my go to rifle is a 700 Classic 30-06 with a Leupy 3.5x10 Vari X3. If I can see it I can hit it. Nuff said

Both shoot sub MOA in my Rem 700. Thanks

Which would be the better 243 win bullet for speed goats and mule deer, the 100 gr Nosler Partition, or 95 gr Bal. tip? Appreciate all comments.

What about the 100 gr Nosler Partition? I have been shooting the 95 B. tips at paper on our local range, also punching paper with 100 gr Sierra Game Kings. I bought a box of 100 gr Partitions to load for whitetails this fall. Yes, I know I should be shooting my 30-06, but it has downed many...

Sierra's 3 rd edition reloading manual lists their 250 gr Game King with 70.2 gr of IMR 4350 as max, and as the preferred hunting load. They also list 67.4 gr of IMR 4350 as the accuracy load. I reload 70.0 gr with the 250 gr GK. Don't know anything about the Bergers. Bear2

Thanks TeddyB, i will take you up on your offew after I get a new Leupy scope. Bear2

live an hour north of Detroit. Good idea though. Is it open to the public? please advise. Thanks

I am a pretty good rifle rifle shot. Shoot even in the winter and most times I am the only one there, aside from the range officer ofcourse. Only problem is there is no place to practice beyond 200 yards, and then there are few 200 yard ranges here in Michigan. I shoot mostly at 100 yards...

Thanks for all the answers. I shoot both (700 Classics) equally well. I will go with the 338 & 225 gr Nosler Partitions with 73.5gr H4831. Scope is a Leupy Vari X 111, 3.5x10, and I will stay under 300 yards. (I had 35 rounds left of; 165 gr Nosler Partitions after a caribou trip to Northern...

Question Which caliber for elk in Utah this fall? Probably will not shoot over 300 yards, being an eastern whitetail hunter. Remy 700 in 30.06 - 165 gr Nosler Partition Remy 700 in 338 - 210 or 225 gr Nosler partition Both shoot MOA. Thanks in advance, and appreciate all opinions. Bear2

For hunting purposes, I only shoot Nosler Partitions, from my 243 up to my 338. They usually group under an inch @ 100 (if I do my part) and stay together. Sessions at the range Nosler BTs, Sierra Match or Game Kings. Bear2

Have been out of touch on the West coast for a while, what is the latest on ballistic fingerprinting? Can not find any stores or the big catalog houses that have any primers.

Thanks, I am a long time Remmy guy, but I did have one Savage 99 EG in 250/3000. Loved that gun. bEAR2

Bowhunthard: Are you talking the 250 as a 22-250, or 250 Savage? Bear2
