Hunter-Habib,

I am with you on 220 grain Remington Core Lokt bullets, at .30-06 velocities.

Cheers,
Velo Dog.
 
Most memories has to have been made with my K-31 in 7.5x55, it's been everywhere. From the big woods of Colorado to the small thickets of West Virginia, it's done it all. So my favorite 30 cal is the 7.5x55, hands down.

Second has to be the 30-06, of which my favorite is the Model 70.

30-06 is my work horse. However, 300 Weatherby is my sports car that I take out for drives on special occasions.

Just wanted to say thanks for the excellent customer service. Ordered some 9.3x62 brass and the delivery was a little short. An email through your website Contact Us link was replied to the next day with the tracking info for the correction. Good pricing coupled with great customer service will see returning customers every time. Thanks again!

Made it to Augusta Georgia yesterday for a meeting, hunt bookings are looking good for 2026 and 2027, had a great time on our Alabama safari shot a rutting deer at 200 yards with 7mm PRC near Huntsville and then headed on to Butler Alabama and semi guided my first deer ever shot a very nice broken off 8 point with hunter there and spend a few days on 1100 acres hunting preserve awesome place!

I am righthanded, so not interested in the rifle, but I have a 375 RUM and 350 gr bullet loading data is very hard to come by. If you could reply with information regarding your loads I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you, Ray Boone, Leavenworth, WA
