300BlkTalk

I don't have any personal experience with copper bullets, so I'm reluctant to comment. I picked the Hornady 110 Grain SP because I figured it would expand well enough. Given that it's really a varmint bullet made to be fired from a .308, it performs in a satisfactory manner (in my opinion) at 300BLK...

Great work and thanks for posting. Can you tell me what variety of Hornady bullet you used? It's their standard (plain) cup and core bullet, Hornady 110 grain sp in 30 caliber. The Hornady number is 3010. It's listed as a varmint bullet, but I like it for the 300BLK because it expands satisfactoril...

I had hoped to post some video, but apparently the SD card came loose in my DVR. I thought the DVR gave an alert when it didn't have a card, but in this case the card was there, just not fully inserted and I didn't get any warning. So, no video. DANG! I hunted a 'sort of' new spot over the recent we...

I'm not an expert at all, but if I understand correctly you're having difficulty chambering a round when you've inserted a new, fully loaded magazine into the weapon while the bolt is closed. I can't say definitively what is causing the problem, but that can be an issue. The fully loaded magazine do...

I looked for a sticky on this, but didn't see one.

I can't claim to be an expert, but that's pretty much what I do.
There are probably YouTube videos on this topic.

Fat must be part of it if it's not to be like sawdust. I write that for what follows. I find 25% to be about right. I think that's a good number. A friend gave me a book on wild game cooking, and there's a chapter on feral hogs. For sausage the author recommended 25% fat, with 20% as the absolute m...

I use Hornady 110 grain SP bullets for hogs, and when an occasional coyote has made an appearance in range, they haven't walked away.

I like the SP's because they're relatively cheap and they work well in my application.

Maybe not real big, but she's still a plus one in your scoring column!

What's your objective? All I do is hunt hogs. I don't do much target shooting, and I don't go after deer or other game. For hogs, I use Hornady 110 grain SP bullets. They're a little cheaper than the VMAX, and seem to work as well for my purpose. Here's a recent video where I took down a 165 Lb hog ...

I've learned to lock the bolt back, and then insert the magazine. Otherwise, in some instances when the bolt is NOT locked back before I insert the magazine, the pressure of a fully loaded magazine against the closed bolt doesn't allow the magazine to fully insert. It may catch and stay, but the top...
