.308 win bullet selection for new reloader
I’m happy with 165 HotCor. It’s the middle of a Speer HotCor bullet .30 cal lineup that works for me: 130gr FP for 7.62x39, 165gr spire for .308, 200gr spire for 30-06.- Benfromalbuquerque

New Mexico Outfitter Draw Set-Aside is Toast -Finally !
No telling about no outfitter tags reducing outfitter poaching just yet. I want to think there are more honorable poachers who would rather not bring clients down with them. The reality is that if an illegitimate “outfitting/guiding” operation does this they are looking at: five years...- Benfromalbuquerque

198.4. Closing in on 190 now or 2005 where I’ll reassess. I actually feel like running again which also correlates with 21 years ago. That sonofabitch, Surgeon General, might have been right after all.- Benfromalbuquerque

FIFY. I’ll even posit that right between AA4350 to 4831 burn rate is where you belong. Because your new gun will likely bughole 140gr mono just like its predecessors in the 6.8 and 7mm iterations.- Benfromalbuquerque

Once Again, I Live on the Prairie, Where Buffalo Roamed !
That right there is why artificial intelligence cannot become human. It is the abstract of our imprecise yet powerfully accurate minds that pulls in memories of all the senses and expresses as spoken word in print.- Benfromalbuquerque

Lyman Sonicore Suppressors???
That’s awesome! Finally bringing European suppressor prices to the USA. It’s made in CT too so no hangup on imports. In my experience, anything Lyman is great value and I’m sure these will meet that legacy.- Benfromalbuquerque

New Mexico Outfitter Draw Set-Aside is Toast -Finally !
Raul Torrez was the municipal attorney for Albuquerque prior to assuming State AG. This man does not take action without purpose. Torrez will likely land in the graces of our next governor if he’s not the gubernatorial elect himself. In these times when inflation is nuts and people distrust...- Benfromalbuquerque

New Mexico unit 51 setting my goal too high?
I’ve been in The County and yeah, 95 to the end, bang a left. Suppose I could haul deboned quarters back to a butcher here, would be faster. Your three posts out from messaging.- Benfromalbuquerque

Are you living up that way? It would be a major expense, only hunt of the year thing for me. Though there could be a processor that ships so that would cut out a 2500mi drive back.- Benfromalbuquerque
