Awesome video! Thanks for taking the time to make it.

Thanks again Mark, It's great having access to those with experience. It saves a lot of time and money making up loads that might be marginal at best. The heaviest Berger I have on hand is the 185 VDL Hunting and Match. I was playing with rounds for the 1000yd matches at Perry. Never made it...

gun)Thanks again MtnaRflmn, I'll give that recipe a try in my pre'64 model 70 Win. and see how she prints out. I have a selection of Berger bullets but they are more for target than hunting. Just another good reason to go to the gun store! :o)

Saying hello from S.W. Ohio. Just starting to coyote and varmint hunt. .17HMR, 22-250 and .308. Any and all advice appreciated. Really appreciate your site.
