Re: Loading Flat Nosed 30-30 bullets

I am a 300BO with lead bullet "virgin" also. While I have been using hardcast lead for my large diameter chamberings for quite some time now,I have never expieramented with them coming outta my BO. My weapon is a single shot,so it will be somewhat easier not having to consider mag length o...

Re: Handi Optic?

On my Handi,using the scope base that came with the gun,I need at least the Burris Extreme Tacticle rings that are 1/2". These rings come in 1/4 incriments. 1/4,1/2,3/4.and 1". Even with this height I still have to position the scope(scopes eyepiece) appropriately. I will probably end up i...

Re: Hog/Deer Bullet Choice

Thank you sir. You must be the "goat farmer" correct ?? I appreciate all the above intel from all members. I will be gathering all my.....uhhhh..."associated equipment" and will start reloading for this new chambering in a week or so. I have a brake coming and some brass from a g...

Re: Hog/Deer Bullet Choice

I also have found some good comments re. the Barnes 110 black tips. However.....they are nowhere to be found and some of the sights aren't even allowing backorders. I do already have some 125gr NosBalTips and have had good results with them outta my 16" 308Win at 2800,however was wondering what...

Hog/Deer Bullet Choice

I just got a new NEF Handi chambered in 300BO. My application will be hogs and deer at 150yds at the most and will probably average 80yds. I want to stay super and will not add a can. I am set up to reload and was wondering which bullet ya'll would pic for this app. Seems that a well made bullet of ...

Re: Nosler 125gr or 110 Vmax?

Quite some years ago the 125gr(.308")NosBalTip's got a bad rep because(IMO)people would try to drive them too fast. I had a buddy that used to load them for woodchuck in his 300 H&H Mag. Ka-Blewie !! BUT.....even though this bullet has a poly tip it still has a pretty thick base. I find the...

Re: AAC Handi-rifle

Picked up that Handi 300BO this AM. Looks really great. Spent the last couple of hours going over it. Took off buttstock to see if the stock bolt was torqued. It was. Took of the forearm and opened the bbl channel a bit. Put shims over the forearm/bbl attachment point to "float" the bbl fo...

Re: AAC Handi-rifle

These little guns are very appealing to me for all the reasons mentioned above. Yep...I have my AR's in other chamberings......however a single shot BO to me is the way to go.

Hopefully I will be picking one up tomorrow. --- pruhdlr
