> .300(300 weatherby) is a hunting round really. bit more grain, packs a nasty punch in the 3-600yd range. My dad has two 300’s single bolt action, and a double barrel breach. I’ve shot both of those guns and they’re a hard hit to the shoulder. there is a .300 Rxx cartridge that’s supposed to be good but I’ve never seen nor fired it. Something with different grain count and fast burn powder.

People say it’s accurate to 1000yds but that’s REALLY dependent on the rifle and shooter and at that range inst going to have nearly the punch. If I had my choice though, .308 all the way. rounds can be found EVERYWHERE as it’s a standard NATO round, 7.62x51mm. I’ll go to garage sales and see misc .308 stuff for 50 cents a clip. I have all the crap here to reload .308 as well. Probably have 50lbs of clean brass here in the basement, dad likely has primers and rounds around here as well. 1/2 our rifles here shoot .308

Look at the ballistics for a 9mm vs a 40 cal using a good round such as a gold dot hollow point. While you’re at it check out recoil and the time difference it takes to get back on target. Bigger isn’t always better.

I’d like to sell my current 12 gauge and get a much better one.
The Tactical 2 is on it’s way, shipped out today thank God. I just took a pic of the .300 WinMag compared to a .223/5.56 round. Huge diff, especially in length.

Yea I know, but I was quite surprised. It’s been a while since I shot anything bigger than a .223, so the .300 WinMag will be quite nutty. The rifle should be here tomorrow. I have 20 rounds right now, with another 240 or 260 on the way.

$50K+ for a GE M134, and a used turret mount at that??? :crazy:crazy You can buy a far better Dillon Aero for $30K less(with military/LE endorsement of course).

Nice! I was looking at those today. I’m not sure what I want. I guess I will have to hold a bunch to see what fits the best. I thinking a .45 ACP would be good to start with. Or go right for the .50 desert eagle :ohnoes

What a complete violation of your 2nd amendment! No offense but I wish you were in a life or death situation that required a pistol during this past year or shit even in the next 2-6 weeks. 1 year is a completely unnecessary amount of time to approve you. Not IMO it just is.
