    Magpro and temp sensitivity

    I know temp sensitvity has been tossed around a lot. I understand the Hogdo powders do well over a range of temps (although I only ave mostly IMR). But how do the accurate powders, Magpro specifically, do over big temp spreads. Ill be working loads up in summer for hunting in October. Hoping I...

    Bored with .223 (.22 cal in general) for varmints/preadator hunting

    Let me explain....I dont think there is anything wrong with .223/5.56 for a varmint rifle. I am just wanting more. More range and less wind drift and long range energy for coyotesis what I am looking for. And possibly to use on antelope and maybe even mule deer at shorter ranges than my main...

    Leupold VX-III great price + what was I waiting for?

    Went into LGS today not intending to buy anything. Had a look at the scopes as I was looking at them last night on-line. I wanted a BDC style scope (Nikon BDC or Leupold B&C) Didnt really like the Nikon and the round reticle markers. Figured the VX-III was WAY out of my price range as they list...
