Hi Gents/Ladies
My name is Michael (MikeTango
). A brief background of my history with firearms:
- Introduced to shooting and hunting since the age of 5 by my father.
- First deer I hunted was at the age of 7 (Springbok)
- Since then I have hunted around 12 different furred game animals for a total of 84 kills to date, all of which we process and make our household meat from.
- Father gave me my first rifle when I turned 18 (.270 Musgrave 24" sporter barrel)
- Started in the realm of reloading at the age of 21 (10 years ago) im the pursuite of better accuracy etc.
- After 8 years of shooting my standard 270 win Musgrave I re-barreld with a 28" 1:8 wist heavy varmit contour to be able to gain more velocity and stability from higher BC bullets for long range shooting.
- I compete in monthly local hunting orientated and long range competitions with my 1:8 wist 270 win to push the limits of the cartridge.
- I would like to share my experience throughout my testing and hunting with different loading techniques and result on a variety of bullets like 140 gr Berger, 145 gr ELDX, 140 gr TMK, 165 gr ABLR, 175 gr TMK.
