    This has to be a visiting space ship of sorts. Exodus 19:16-18 On the third day, when morning came, there was thunder and lightning. A thick cloud was upon the mountain, and a very loud blast of the ram’s horn went out, so that all the people in the camp trembled. / Then Moses brought the...

    CWD safe to eat or not?

    I have had a read through the thread and this paste below reinforces my choice of NOT eating anything remotely prion. Note 'no cures...goodbye $800 bucks' Prion diseases are caused by extremely resilient misfolded proteins that resist conventional sterilization, requiring specialized...

    Should I rebarrel my .338 WMag to the `64?

    I have been hunting with my 9.3 x 64 Brenneke for a few years (comm `98) and it is a calibre that is a real hammer,so much so that I got hold of a Pac-Nor 9.3x64 mm barrel recently that is threaded for a Winchester. Now I have an XTR Mod 70 in .338 Win Mag and I love the `64 AND Winchesters so...

    358 Norma Magnum

    Perhaps we could crank up all the other comparo cartridges too. There is a bottom line with all of this and its the energy/fp`s realised that does the job.

    358 Norma Magnum

    As an owner of such for many years I am not surprised at all. It is one of the great undervalued calibres and often never heard of. Others talk up other calibres at will and hardly ever mention the .358NM. I use a 9.3 x 64 also and as your chart attests the 35 is also a hammer in comparison.

    Load testing the 9.3 x 64

    K95 .both quoted calibres are under the radar of many hunters and many don`t know of them at all. Both before their time and both are hammers. .the 358 compares to some awesome calibres as its awesome itself.

    Load testing the 9.3 x 64

    I have shot a few sambar with both .358 and .308 Norma mags using Hydros,they are devastating killers. I shudder to think of what the 9.3 x 64 would do. I have mentioned this previously the .308 NM drove a 180 Hydro from a starting point an inch from the freckle the full length of a sambar hind...

    300 mag info wanted

    I think they are earlier than the NA ammo Bob...but then i dont uckn know either. The other thing is that 308 ammo isnt the same as 300 mag ammo. The 300 is more robust.
