    338s Are A Great Caliber

    I think it has something to do with accuracy of the long 250 gr. homogenous as opposed to lead-core loaded at the max pressures Weatherby usually loads to

    338s Are A Great Caliber

    I do agree, Whelen is much milder on the shoulder. Weatherby is more practical for me personally because of where I hunt most often requiring longer shots

    338s Are A Great Caliber

    huge fan of the .340 Weatherby. 230 gr. oryx and 250 gr. partitions are absolutely devastating on big, tough plains game

    Do not pity the dead. Pity the living, for about half of them are idiots and the rest of us still have to live with them!

    I keep thinking about that very thing. Have we ever tested at anything like these levels for any kind of flu? A sense of proportion matters

    Eight Hot New Cartridges

    I second that thought about the 6.5 Grendel. I have a lovely CZ 527 in that caliber and, honestly, it is one of my favorite rifles. Superb accuracy and easy handling for just the use you describe.

    Buffalo Hunt in the Northern Territory Australia ended very badly

    I admit, I don't know all the regulations regarding Australian bowhunting ,re. carrying firearms, but going after buffalo without a backup gun seems like madness

    Juneteenth??

    I doubt it will work though. All the sociological studies show that black people fear crime more than cops and anywhere from 2/3 to 3/4 support and want more police protection. And the continuation of shutdowns in Democrat run states takes away the increases in employment and overall standard...

    Juneteenth??

    The revisionist historians here in the US prefer to exclude the totality of the world history of slavery in order to use it as a political cudgel to force their preferred agendas.

    Eight Hot New Cartridges

    Dovetailing off what Bullthrower338 said, the European market already had the 8x68mm S which apparently gives similar results so the international market mostly ignored it. Charles Askins and Craig Boddington notably endorsed it's capabilities but it still didn't get enough traction.

    Eight Hot New Cartridges

    My prediction: 2 of those will "catch on" and become standard loadings (for a time at least), the Weatherby and Nosler will endure as primarily proprietary ammo with devoted brand fans, and the rest will fall to some level of niche/specialist/handloader following

    Norma discontinuation of Barnes TSX in .375 H&H (Factory loaded)

    Norma has been scaling back a lot on many of the larger caliber and "Safari" offerings. I noticed that pretty much all of the African PH line is on clearance and listed as discontinued most places I buy. Loaded 375 and 416 are still in current production however but they look to be changing up...

    I am shocked! SHOCKED! Well not that shocked. There is a school of thought that implies that a number of heavily in debt, democrat run states view this as a once in a lifetime opportunity economically collapse and completely bankrupt their states and blame it on Covid instead of themselves.
