Agreed big buddy B, it's more the idea than the money, cut hay with a crook on halves one year, i spent money bush hogging that field the next year not to do business with him, i'll spend extra to avoid thieves on principal, idgas about money, hate greedy someb's, just checked, my 8 twist will spin the 180 hornady as well as the 168 LRX, that Barnes at 3200 fps should be a hell of a bull saw!
Yes sir. Same here Gunner.
I have a bunch of those 168 LRX's myself. Not sure why but I haven't tried them myself. I'd bet a buck you'd get them up over 3100 quite easily and I am sure they'd carry some serious attitude at distance.
You bet, and drill a hole in a bull from the last rib forward out the shoulder, i may have to try to find some, i can load the 3.6" in the old H&H mag box.
Without a doubt. Mine is set up the same. I think I can get out to 3.610" or a bit more in mine.
I for one will continue to use partitions when I hunt elk. I’m thinking about using a smaller caliber than I normally use on whitetail and if so, I’ll be using partitions.
To me partitions are the bullets all the other premium bullets are trying to equal.
As far as SPS being closed due to the state’s COVID law - move to another state SPS.
Bugger, ain't nothing wrong with them, but I don't believe they do anything any better than a bunch of others that are costing much less these days. While I haven't had major issues getting them to shoot, typically they aren't the most accurate in any rifle I own. Plenty good though 95% of the time. I have used a bunch of them and will continue to use what I have stocked up on.
