7mm Rem Mag Memorial Build
Zeke-BE replied to lancetkenyon's topic in Rifles, Reloading and Gunsmithing
With your tinkering with the ELD let us know. I would only say Ive seen just a few people have commented on here they work for them. The rest say they can't get them to work, or it takes alot of work to make it happen. I have one more load development with my 300 win mag and if I can't get a load on that Im switching to something else -
7mm Rem Mag Memorial Build
Zeke-BE replied to lancetkenyon's topic in Rifles, Reloading and Gunsmithing
Come on guys we all know Lance is bored! -
If they can shoot a 7mm-08 a .270 130 grain would be great! Elk 140 grain. A little more ump behind the .270 with not that much more recoil.

243 is a great youth gun, but if you are planning within the next year to go elk hunting buy a 7mm-08. If it was me I would just get both

What ammo for quail
Zeke-BE replied to MULEPACKHUNTER's topic in Small Game, Upland Bird, and Waterfowl Hunting
I keep 3-4 high brass 5 shot in my pockets for January. For when those guys are 80 yards away and not flying, can't get any closer, I have shot one on the ground before. Usually you can see them and they can see you that far but not running I have had times that they gave me enough opportunity to switch out my round. (Shooting birds on the ground goes against my code, until Januray ) -
I hate them! Once while bow hunting in Aug (stupid time) slipped down rocky hill and well enjoyed the ride down until a heard a rattle snake at the bottom of the hill and I couldn't stop because it was so steep. I had to use my bow to dig into the side of the hill to stop me. The worst one while quail hunting it struck at the barrel of my gun i leaped back and fell back on the down side of the hill and the little SOB starting slither right toward me. The only time I screamed like a girl after puberty. And just this last weekend while out shooting I almost stepped on 2 of them. No rattle until I stopped myself and walked back it notice me.

I love my cabelas Euros (made from Meopta I believe). Right there with Swaros! I bought a Athlon Cronus 4.5-29x56 scope and the glass is top tier! I needed a 8x binos as well and the glass on my scope was so nice I took a leap of faith with the 8x. Well those Cronus 8x are right there ( i would say equal) with my Cabelas Euros. So look into the Athlon Cronus spotting scope I think its 1400-1500. Athlon is keeping prices down to get their foot in the door with the big wigs. If its truly about money right now look into the Cronus. But as Lance and Big Browns have said those Meopta look fantastic.

CWT group effort Wildcat Rifle build
Zeke-BE replied to Zeke-BE's topic in Rifles, Reloading and Gunsmithing
Never thought of RL22 or 23. It would be great if I can get my 4th and 5th shot to group in my next 3 shot grouping with close and exceeding 3200 fps I would be happy. Even if I can get a load with this Ill still try out velocity with RL23 and hybrid 100V which I haven't heard of. -
CWT group effort Wildcat Rifle build

Funny!!! The exact opposite for me I tried many powders when I developed the 140 gr load for my lightweight 7mm-08 AI. There were some real surprises during the testing. I'm sure the 20 inch barrel was responsible for some of them. I am getting ready to start powder testing with 168 gr bullets for an elk load. The bullets have been on the shelf for over 4 years. I normally hunt elk archery so it hasn't been a high priority. I checked the Hodgdon site for 7mm-08 data and Hybrid 100V showed the highest velocity. Interestingly, it also shows the highest velocity for 140 gr bullets in a 6.5-06. Have you tried it yet? I have not yet. Going to see what H4831 does first. I have high hopes for it -
6.5-06 AI or .280 AI? What would YOU build?
