[QUOTE="SDMF, post: 411125, member: 412"] Load, tinker, new bullet, tinker, new powder, tinker, seating depth, tinker, new lot of brass, tinker, new stock, start over, tinker, bed the stock, tinker, everything is just right, pop the bipod on, POI changes, tinker, gonna use a yolk on the tripod instead, shift scope back to original POI/POA, tinker. Rifle/ammo are now tuned as one can make them. Set up some steel and practice practice practice. Get the dope-chart and actuals correlated and you're as ready as you can be. Morning of the 2nd day, shoot your quarry (in my case, deer) @ 50yds........ Just a short synopsis of a few variables one can change and the rabbit-hole gets deep in a hurry. Regarding the Badlands bullets. Accuracy came easy, I've got loads worked up for .308 175 BullDozer II in 300Win Mag, .277 140 Super BullDozer in 270Win, and .257 95 BullDozer II in 257Wby. I've shot exactly 1 animal, a Mule Deer @ 50yds w/the .277 140's. Entrance/Exit looked just like a Barnes. Caliber in, golf ball out, nothing but goo in the chest. The deer ran about 30yds and died. I'm going to continue to load, shoot, practice, and hunt with them to get more data-points before I really form an opinion regarding lethality. Accuracy however is a non-issue and was easily obtained. [/QUOTE]
