    Woodleigh 30cal 165 grain picture

    This is what worked in my Tikka T3 Stainless Lite in .30-06 SPR and Woodleigh bullets in 165 to 240 gr PPRN. Target squares are 1", so, if you do the math with 100 yds being the zero distance................. Good luck and stay safe!

    30-06 mono bullets?

    I have tried Barnes bullets in my rifles. They performed well and as designed, with good accuracy in most rifles. I say good because, for the most part, I could achieve MOA. For the most part, the best I could achieve was 1" to1 1/2" groups with them, plus a bunch of copper on the lands. I have...

    416 Rigby Sell Me On It

    Have not gone to Africa yet. Once my financial situation clears up, I should be able to go, but that could still be a few years away. Otherwise the 416 Rigby is ready to go with some 410 gr Woodleigh softs and solids. Also picked up some Norma Barnes 400 gr brass solids from an estate sale for...

    .45 ACP recommendations

    Been reading this for a minute. You say you are a shotgun and rifle guy. How accurately do you shoot those weapons? Do you shoot them better because they fit you? If they do, then pistols are the same. What is comfortable in your hand and proper grip, should shoot best for you. You also...

    6.5x55mm for Plains Game?

    Interesting, maybe some of the laws are beginning to change. However, I am looking to hunt Namibia, Zimbabwe, and/or Tanzania. Last time I looked, minimum calibers in those countries were 7mm for plains game. Good hunting on the PGs. My heavy load for the 6.5x55 SE is a 160 gr Woodleigh PPRN...

    6.5x55mm for Plains Game?

    Love my Tikka T3 SS Lite in 6.5x55 SE. I reload all of my own ammunition for it using VihtaVuori N550 and VihtaVuori N560 as powders; bullets ranging from 85 gr to 160 gr from Sierra, Hornady, and Woodleigh. Everything that I load for that rifle shoots at least MOA using a 3-9x40mm Nikon...
