Not necessarily, the abrasive aspect of the powder if allowed to follow the bullet and ‘funnel’ into the throat is just as bad as the...

I'm running H50BMG powder in my Nosler which is an Extreme powder. Not sure where it sits on the burn temp scale. Which N100 series...

IMO a Norma case would be so overbore you would be burning a lot of extra powder for little to no gain. My 26 Nosler throated to...

I have a 28” 338 Norma Improved that I hunt with a suppressor on. The length isn’t a problem as long as you are hunting open country but...

Sierra 175 TMK.

Interesting, I own three. Several of my friends have bought Tikka's in various calibers and all, just like mine shot sub moa right out...

I rarely shoot over 14x even out to a mile on targets. For hunting I’m usually in the 8-12x range. On heavier recoiling rifles, you...

Hate to say it… but I’m much more dubious about the integrity of the Scope than the Rifle. I bet the Leupold went tits-up.

Anything, literally anything else. Sleds are the bane of all things holy in this world. Id rather rest on a ****ed off badgers lunch...

Barrels are cheap, get one for each powder 🤣 Once all three are shot out compare notes, and you'll have a great starting point on...
