Re: resizing 7mm-08 brass to .260
Thanks. Just because they were all that was on the shelf; I started with the Sierra Matchkings 107 gr. Some seemed to shoot real good, then I will get some flyers. Have some 120gr. Sierra Game Kings; will try them and see how they do. Also have an 8lb jug of H4350, so will try to work with that.

So I held it; looked it over, and thought this is something that somebody has done some work on, but ran out of money or something. It is a Rem 700 stainless barrel and receiver th...

Re: Low Recoil & Big Distance...?
I very well appreciate you guy's advice-- I also preach the same thing. I have tried the 1000 yard shots with .50BMG; 30-06 and now my .338. And this was the FIRST time of any consistency.

I had my chest waders along, but there was no way I was going to attempt a crossing because of the speed a...
