Re: 2019 hunting ammo
Agreed. I think the 300 blackout is a cartridge you have to think about. I think a good analogy is the .243 when it first came out. There were varmint bullets and deer bullets depending on which bullet was used could vastly change someone opinion of the cartridge. I’m still going to pick up a box of...

Re: 2019 hunting ammo
I get all that for sure but I disagree on some of your points. The .308 and .30-06 with pretty much any “big game hunting” will reliably expand out to 400+ yards which encompasses a vast majority of hunting so the “average” hunter probably doesn’t spend as much time thinking about bullet performance...

Re: 2019 hunting ammo
Well that’s rather disappointing. I still might pick up a box and try it out.

Re: 2019 hunting ammo
I’ve found 2100 FPS. The 120 tsx starts at 2150 and is 1780 or so at 200 yards according to Barnes data. So I was extrapolating from other 120 grain bullets. Testing is needed but these are significantly cheaper than the Barnes too

Re: 2019 hunting ammo
I reached out to federal about their copper bullet. It’s their bullet and has a minimum expansion of 1800 FPS which should put it right at 200 yards. Just FYI

2019 hunting ammo
So I’m hoping to get my 300 out for for this years hunting season after my cycling issues I had last year. 16” pistol gas. So I’m planning on picking up some ammo. So the 110/120 tsx and 125 sst are well established (can’t seem to find any sst is stock and I don’t reload) how are the 150 fusions? Ho...

Re: Weird grouping issue
I think I may have figured it out i tried a spikes st2 buffer. I was able to shoot the below group (assuming the pics work) with hornady 125 hp (any idea how these work on deer? Max range 200 or so yards) still need to try some 110 blacktips to fully trust this. But these groups are encouraging http...
