    Double Lung Hit that goes 1.5 miles??

    Reason I ask is I had an experience last fall where my go to broad head had new blades. The steel was crap and folded over. They must of found a cheaper substitute. Cow elk was center punched and just kept going. Both lungs had a hole but it didn’t cut. Took her about 45 min to expire...

    270 140gr accubond loads

    I love those powders but this seems slow for a 270. I don’t load for it but do load a 280. That uses the same powders to push a 160 accubond that fast. 6.5 Creedmoor or 7mm08 with the 140 are topping near there. That 270 case has quite a bit more capacity. Have you reached pressure...

    Explain this one to me.

    Lot change, remember they went thru new ownership a while back. No way of knowing what got changed. Thats why we always seek the same lot #.

    Explain this one to me.

    My go to is this for Barnes, it has never failed me. Book max minus 1 grain. Load them up to max at .2g increments. Keep moving up till a pressure sign is reached. Shoot these over a chronograph, don’t care where they hit the target. Take the two that are closest in velocity safely...

    Explain this one to me.

    My jumps are all over the place with Barnes. I’ve got one at .120 and one at .30 with the same box of LRX. I’ve always gotten them to shoot well but each one is very different.

    Explain this one to me.

    Start from scratch with a book load. Safe load in one gun is not necessary a safe load in another. You’re wasting time and components.

    P_ham Rem 700 makeover

    Thanks, N555 is your best friend with the AI. Mine shoots the 127 Barnes LRX at 3120fps.

    Explain this one to me.

    Every rifle, bullet, powder, and primer combo is different. You can’t compare it to anything else and expect it to be the same. You start from scratch on each rifle.

    Double Lung Hit that goes 1.5 miles??

    That’s pretty wild, never seen anything similar. What broadhead were you using? What do the blades look like after the shot?

    I felt like I was in a good place to live up with Duke winning. That hurt but still moved up to 7th.

    P_ham Rem 700 makeover

    Pierce Engineering built it as part of the original build. It was quite a bit bigger when I went to pick it up. They threw it in the lathe and turned it down more and mailed it to me.

    P_ham Rem 700 makeover

    Just thought I would share this here. Did a makeover on one of my favorite rifles with Paul. It’s a 260 Ackley that has been my go to for a while. The original build was a trued action, Lilja 3 groove 8 twist, Trigger Tech independence, and B&C sporter. It functioned fine but I hated the...

    Michigan pulled it off but all those missed free throws…. Gonna be hard to win a championship without them.

    Big ol Burban

    I have a tuner down the road that for it all. It’s not worth it for me to get into it for as little as I do. On this one I had a ECM that I had had previously had tuned for this motor. So it was just a swap. I can get it scheduled for the dyno and get the correct VIN ECM updated later.
