    6.5 prc with eldx on game

    Been thinking about loading eldx in 6.5 prc. Was wondering if anyone on here has any experience with this combo. How did it perform on game? Thanks!

    300wsm Bullet Selection

    In a world where ammo is hard to come by, I might be in search of something that I can’t get. Like most of us here, I’m looking for a good round with above standard terminal ballistics and a relatively good BC. However, I do realize you usually give up one for the other. Ideally I’d like to...

    .300 Win Mag Bullet Length?

    So I'm configuring a D.O.P.E. card for field use for my Mossberg Patriot .300 Win Mag. I'm using Remington Core-Lokt 150gr. and I'm having a hard time finding the length of the actual bullet, not the overall case to tip length. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    External Ballistics Experiment

    This has been a thought I've had for a while. How much does the density of the air in front of the bullet affect velocity, trajectory, and accuracy? If you could reduce the air density in the barrel in front of the bullet would it make a measurable difference? I feel it would. I want to...

    Hunting without trajectory validation up to 600 meters possible?

    First of all: Why does someone even ask something like that? In many European countries, there is no possibility to train long range shooting very often. Most shooting ranges have 100m and 150m targets. Of course, there are some shooting ranges with targets up to 1000 Meters, but they are...

    Poi variance

    Hi All: Today I saw something that I have never seen before while zeroing in my 7x08 for my upcoming Javelina hunt. With this caliber I've always hunted and shot in competition with bullets weighting 139gr, 140gr, 150gr and 168gr, nothing lower. I developed a load a few months ago for some...
