    Federal Power Shok 400 Legend

    I usually like power shoks in most cartridges I have but I’m curious if I’ll get the same performance at a much slower velocity especially if I push the .400 to 200 yards or more.

    Federal Power Shok 400 Legend

    Hello all, I have recently gotten a savage 110 in 400 legend and was looking at good ammunition to try through it as a 200 yard and in deer hunting rifle. So far I’ve only tried the 215gr Winchester power points and planned on trying the federal power shoks but wanted to hear if anyone has used...

    Versatile Riflescope Recommendations

    I have been looking at the trijicon accupoint 2.5-12.5x42mm since it seems like a perfect fit but the price is definitely over budget for me right now. I’ve given the 3-9s a look but would like a little more higher end magnification.

    Versatile Riflescope Recommendations

    I have a Bergara b14 wilderness terrain in 7mm REM mag that I would like to scope up with a versatile hunting style scope. I am trying to find a scope with a min magnification of 2-3 and a max around 12-15. I’m also looking for a second focal plane and an illuminated reticle since I have a bear...

    Eldx vs evostrike

    Evostrike Infomercial I realized I should’ve posted this originally since the evostrike is a somewhat obscure loading. Its one of the only videos that gives info on the evostrike.

    Eldx vs evostrike

    I have found similar results from gel tests and reviews/forums from the eldx but the Norma is questionable for me because the front half on the evostrike is meant to be frangible. I would like to start reloading for the rifle but I don’t have the gear yet and am not sure where to start. If you...

    Eldx vs evostrike

    I generally like Norma’s bullets but this one is rather unique in that it’s two pieces of tin held together where the front is supposed to fragment while the back pushes through. It’s left me somewhat mixed and the lack of ballistic tests and field use stories makes me question performance.

    Eldx vs evostrike

    This past year I picked up a bergara b14 wilderness terrain in 7mm rem mag as a do all type of rifle. Unfortunately it is very ammo picky and only shoots 2-3 loadings at that sub moa guarantee. The two that it really likes is Norma’s 127gr evostrike and hornadys 162gr eldx. The gun does prefer...

    6.5 PRC vs .280AI

    For elk the 280ai seems like a better choice especially since Barnes recently released a 152gr LRX in factory loadings for it.

    Mauser Caliber Ideas

    Used to use an 8x57 for deer hunting in the north east and found it to be very adequate for the 100 yards or less shot opportunities.

    Looking for suggestions on a new caliber

    I think .308 would be a great choice for deer with the option to go bigger but I think your 338 would cover the bigger stuff anyways.

    New 30-06. Thinking about trying copper.

    For versatility I like the 150gr coppers which should be sufficient for everything you plan to hunt.

    Norma bondstrike

    My dads Sako loves the ammo and I’ve seen a couple tests with them which performed well.

    Tell me about your obscure cartridge

    Mine is the 8mm Mauser which I know is pretty popular outside the U.S. but I’ve found ammo limited to ppu soft points and fmjs. I took one of my first deer with it and found it to perform very well for under 200 yards.

    Guidance on choosing a new barrel or new rifle

    For under $2000 and at the right places for under $1500 you can get a Sako s20 which shoots lights out.
