    Nosler Ballistic Tip 140gr

    I was pressed for time before I left for my hunt, so no time to get Peregrines in time and do load dev with them. I managed to get a box of ELD-X and they shot bloody well on paper and steel as I didn’t take 1 shot in the field on my hunt! I think I would be asking a lot to take down a Kudu bull...

    Nosler Ballistic Tip 140gr

    The latter applies to me, so explosive bullets on small game (or any for that matter) are not what I need.

    Nosler Ballistic Tip 140gr

    I did some introspection into the early hours of the morning, along with shopping around and came to the finding this morning that Nosler supply in SA is a bit iffy at the moment along with a lot of other brands of bullets. Hornady/Berger/Lapua seem to be the only bullets consistently being...

    Nosler Ballistic Tip 140gr

    Some good information coming through - thanks. I’m desperately trying to find some 140gr Accubonds as they’re seemingly the most recommended for my application. That said, I’m not opposed to getting 140gr Interlocks for the sake of the soft point and availability though I have zero experience...

    Nosler Ballistic Tip 140gr

    I’m really not looking (at this point in my life at least) to hunt animals further than 300m. Oh and correct on the .264 caliber.

    Nosler Ballistic Tip 140gr

    Hey y’all I’ve got a box of Nosler BT 140g at home - currently the only “hunting” bullet besides a Nosler ABLR 120gr which is not going to work for a variety of reasons so we’ll omit those from the discussion. I’ve worked up some test loads which I’m going to go fire off soon in lieu of an...

    Liver Anyone?

    “Just because” is why I’m doing this, ha! I’m all for taking vitamins supplements and eating a balanced diet, but if I can then heck, why not?

    Liver Anyone?

    I’m onboard with the sausage making idea. I’m looking to do the same sans liver this year. As for capsule dosage, I’m not too sure about that yet, I’m sure a similar dosage to the beef liver capsules would work but I’m really not qualified in any way to make that call. If it’s a case of liver...

    Liver Anyone?

    I’m local to RSA so no worries there.

    Liver Anyone?

    To your point, just off the coast nearby me there were white sharks being washed up with no damage other than a big chunk of their gut missing. Turns out the sharks were being targeted for their livers by orcas, and it was consistent with every shark that was found on the coast. Pretty wild!

    Liver Anyone?

    I can vacuum bag the liver at the farmhouse and take them home.
