So what powder did you find gives your best groups?

Yeah I use those electronic Axil ear plugs and they work great but I still get a good crack through them.

I finally got to try her out today and was really surprised at the recoil. Not nearly what I was expecting. I only shot the cheap S&B rounds that are 255grain at 1759 but I was still expecting more violence.

Honestly my 'hunting' with it will likely be carrying it along with a rifle in case I do get a close shot especially at a hog. I'm in south GA and unless you're looking specifically for long shots most everything is 150 or less, most probably being under 100. If the accuracy is there I'd like to...

That's crazy I've never heard that about one chamber being better than others but it makes sense. Thanks

Hey guys I'm about to get a 7.5" 460 XVR for my birthday tomorrow and I'm digging around for accurate loads. I've got 8 boxes of the cheap S&B stuff to play with and get brass. What have yall found to be the most accurate for factory and handloads? Does anybody have one that's honestly capable...

I agree with Nyati in that I love the 338 but when I was asking my ph about what to bring I was trying to talk him in to saying "338" and he was firm on the 300 or 30-06. I used the 300 to put down my Wildebeest, that is claimed to be a tough animal, in less than 50 yards. In his words almost...

Hoytcanon did you chrono that load? What was the velocity?

I know the srh isn't a top shelf gun but I didn't know it had that many problems. I guess by the time you put enough gunsmithing in to it to make it right you could just buy a bfr or FA

CoElkHunter what kind of accuracy do you get? I know the 454 is a 150 maybe 200 yard cartridge on deer and pigs, is the srh capable too? I've got a blind set up in gonna put a bench in for my daughter to use so I can put a bag in there to shoot off of.

Oh a 475 Linebaugh Redhawk! To bad there's no way to affordably convert a 44 to it.

There are several Toklat specials on GB list i looked. They are cool just look a bit funny to me with the short barrel on the big frame

That is exactly the same gun in looking at but without the porting. The 9.5" barrels are hard to find. 450 Dakota I'll be hunting deer and pigs with it and just shooting on my home range. I have no reason to carry other than when I'm hunting. I'll likely scope it unless I can figure out those...

I like the 480, if they still offered any ammo for it I'd love to have one. I'll be reloading the 454 but at least i can get some factory stuff to have a base line to start from.

Hey guys I'm looking at a SRH in 454, I've wanted a 454 for years in a double action. Are there any years that are better or worse than others? I'm looking at a 9.5" barreled target grey one, not crazy about the grey but 9.5" are hard to find. I understand the target grey only came in the early...
