    SOLD/EXPIRED Hogue Pillar Bedded vs Full Bedded

    I am just order from Midway Hogue full bedding black for $209. My other questions would be should I glass bed the action or barrel, from what I understand this is normally done for wooden stocks. I guess I'll shoot it a few times and then decide if I should glass bed.

    problems reloading 300 win mag

    If the gun is a bolt action and you are shooting the new loads in the same gun you only need to size the neck, using a neck sizing die. This improves accuracy since the cartidge is custom fit into the gun. I've reloaded both 375 HH and 300 Win Mag using and not had a problem although when...

    Bullet BC's

    In the Nosler reloading guide they only list a 250 gr. Partition Spitzer bullet they don't list an Accubond at they weight. They do list a 225 gr. 200 gr. 180 gr. AccuBond for 338. Perhaps that's why you can not find the numbers for the 250 gr.

    Caliber of Choice, 30-06

    For deer I prefer a 270 using a 140 GR AccuBond. However I shoot 180 GR with my Benlli 30.06 with great results.

    Another night hunting question

    I schedule my night hunting during the full moon. It is plenty of light to shoot varmints and hogs as long as they're not in the shade. It has been very successful for hogs. I use Leupold VXII scope and Ziess 10 x 40 binoculars.
