    Need suggestions for the .224 Barnes 62-grain TSX BT

    I'm still "tweaking" the loads. John convinced me to switch to the standard primer instead of the magnum. I'm headed for the range on Sunday to let my grandson try out the AR with some R-P bulk FMJ's. I just want the brass so I can work up some loads with CCI 400 primers using H335, Varget and...

    Best coyote riffle

    I started out with a .222 bolt action, but went to an AR in .223 because of the ability for a quick second shot in case of a bad hit on the first round or multiple targets. I shoot a handloaded Hornady 53-grain V-max bullet. If you don't handload, the factory 53-grain Superformance rounds are...

    Trapping Question

    That doesn't sound like any problem at all. What are you targeting? Read Section 475 (d)...Traps may be used to take nongame birds and nongame mammals only in accordance with the provisions of Section 465.5 of these regulations and sections 3003.1 and 4004 of the Fish and Game Code.

    Need suggestions for the .224 Barnes 62-grain TSX BT

    OK, here's the target for the 62-grain TSX using 25.0 grains of Varget...just over 3/4" group at 100 yards. Not quite as good as the 50-grain VG group, but acceptable.

    Boots

    Rocky snake boots. Lightweight, comfortable and waterproof. Where we hunt, I wouldn't be without a pair.

    In the meantime, here's the latest 100-yard target using 23.4 grains of H335 and the Barnes 50-grain Varmint Grenade.

    Thor muzzleloader bullets

    We were deer hunting when this bad boy walked out at 96 yards. Spine shot put him right in the dirt.

    LP, you just solved my dilemma! For some reason. I was looking at the MPG's, not the TTSX's. John, can you get me two boxes of the 55-grain TTSX's? Again, THANKS LP!

    Where can I find gunpowder?

    Inland Empire? How about Bass Pro in Rancho Cucamonga?

    Need suggestions for the .224 Barnes 62-grain TSX BT

    The reason I went with the TSX is because of the boat-tail design...better B.C. I'll go with a FB design if I have to, but prefer a BT.

    Need suggestions for the .224 Barnes 62-grain TSX BT

    I tried to work up a load for the 62-grain Barnes TSX BT in my AR using H335 but it wouldn't pattern. It seems that H335 works better for the lighter bullets. Barnes suggests Varget or Reloder 15 for the 62. Anyone had any luck with something else? Suggestions? Thanks

    Coyote hunting on Camp Pendleton

    One of our club members (active duty USMC) was up deer hunting on Pendleton this past weekend when a coyote walked out into the open and got whacked! There are a lot of dogs up there.
