thanks....ended up gettin a franchi i-12 the benelli was pretty banged up

Quick question....If I trade my 870 express in on a benelli montefeltro will I be disappointed? I plan to shoot mainly skeet but I do some turkey hunting which is why I am afraid I might miss my 870. Also does 399 sound like a good price for the Benelli? It is in good working order but has...

Midways got the SP's for 12 bucks on special I am going to give them a whirl

thanks, will do some tinkering maybe try the partitions or something comparable that might be a little cheaper..lol you are right, there are a lot of variables to think about when trying to develop an all purpose round for yotes, zombies, what have you

Thats an idea but i was under the impression the vmax was not suited for larger game...am I mistaken because that round shoots well for me and suits my budget

I guess the idea of having ammo stock piled that is reliable and dynamic sounds appealing as I reload for several other rifles that consume most of my time. I have only tinkered with varmint rounds for this rifle...but it is a combat rifle in nature, I guess I like the idea of having one rifle...

money is definitely a concern, how would spire point type bullets perform??

That seems pretty light, its up too the task though?

Been loading 60 gr. hornady vmax for critters etc in my stag 16" AR, but I am looking for a round that would perform equally well should the need ever arise for more serious situations. Any suggestions for bullets that would translate from a plinking/varmint round to a defense round? The idea...

Thanks, I will keep that in mind, lol. I am shooting a minute a deer now so I will try to relax. Had no idea that 180 gr bullet would move that much at 200 with a 10-15 mph wind

whoops, yes 2", hope this wind dies down soon so I can see if thats my problem. Deer season starts saturday, need to get dialed in

there was a very strong cross wind today, if the wind speed was variable that could account for the spread in my groups at 200 couldnt it?

my grandpa bout a rem 700 adl varmint for 450 at dicks today. has 26" in heavy barrell and decent trigger. Good shooter for the money, sale last till saturday. have .223, .308, and 22-250 in stock. Comes with a scope too but it is junk

I have been shooting consistent .5" groups @100 yds but cant get a group at 200. Groups at 2 are scattered and inconsistent about 2' at best. I am shooting a heavier bullet than I ever have ( 180 gr. Nosler BT 43.6 gr Varget, rem 700 varmint sps .308 26" barrel 1/12 twist) and was wondering is...

.308 Hunting Load Solved. I finally got some free time to tinker with load today and I am pleased to say the least. Thanks for all the input guys. I ended up picking up some 180gr nosler balistic tips and tossing 43.6 grains of Varget behind it. It shot about an inch with all loads I tried...
