RE: browning a-bolt
ORIGINAL: trophytaker308 what i got is your 243 is shooting a tiny bullet thats why its a hair 3 inches flatter ,and the energy is stomped in a mud hole by the 7mm-08,and what the 270 is 3 inches flatter and what 100 more energy,that little sort action 7mm-08,is still king...lol...its ok,you will come to know its wrath...lol...ha,ha,ha... also the energy from the muzzle is greater than the 7mm-08,wonder if we made the 7mm-08 3000 fps from muzzle.....(IDENTICAL)...dum,dum dum,dum.....wa laaaaa....lol whats your 243, shooting a 80 grain pee wee bullet,try it with a cor lokt 100 soft point ,and lets see.but it still has not got that,how do you say,ENERGY....goodday....lol |
RE: browning a-bolt
all,that makes a big difference,..lol..try with the 100 grsince thats the closet we can get to a 140 7m-08.

RE: browning a-bolt
The 100gr Nosler Partition actually shoots flatter dropping 46.1" at 500.
|
RE: browning a-bolt
TRY THE 100 CORE LOKT...AND THEN SEE IT FALL OFF THE CHARTS,BUT I DONT THINK THE 243 COULD SHOT A 140 GRAIN BULLET LIKE A 7MM-08 IF THEY WERE EVEN MADE.YOU WILL FIND SOME BULLETS THAT WILL WITH A 100 ,BUT NOT ALL WILL..

RE: browning a-bolt
Not gonna argue with ya anymore. The 7mm-08 is a good cartridge. When I bought my Tikka 243 I was tryin to decide between a Browning A-Bolt in 7mm-08 or the Tikka in 243.
I end up gettin the 243 because I do alot of coyote hunting, and there aren't many good choices for varmint bullets in .284. |
RE: browning a-bolt
THAT DIDNT COME OUT RIGHT ,BUT THESE ARE EQUAL,AND THAT IS PRETTY IMPRESIVEFOR A SHORT ACTION WITH A 140 GRAIN BULLET, CAN STILL SHOOT AS FLAT AND FLATER WITH SOME AMMO THAN A 243 100.IT REAINS ITS WEIGHT AND ENERGY REALLY WELL,AND THE 243 JUST DOENT HAVE THE ENERGY AS THE 7MM-08,SO JUST GIVE IT UP,BEEN DOING THIS TO LONG,AND I KNOW TO MUCH....LOL...4 REAL!I CAN PULL SOME COR LOKT BALLISTIC UP AND SHOW YOU,AND ALSO SHOW YOU MORE,IF YOU NEED FOR ME 2....THE 7MM-08 IS A BETTER CALIBER ANY WAY YOU LOOK AT IT...PERIOD......!

RE: browning a-bolt
The thing is, Remington Core Lokts are JUNK. I haven't bought a factory round in 10 years now. I've been at this game for a while as well ;)
|
RE: browning a-bolt
I agree with you rammer core lokts are not the best shooting bullet. You cant win with this guy. Not saying your right trophytaker, whats the next caliber your going to outshoot with the amazing 7mm-08,maybe its going to be the 7.21 (.284)tomahawk wait that wouldnt work they dont offer core lokts. And by the way you cant know to much about guns

RE: browning a-bolt
Calm down guys. We all have our favorites. But to answer the guys question. The Abolt is a great rifle. Very reliable, very accurate and the detachable clip may not be the fastestbutis well built and you will not ever have a problems with it. I own 3 abolts and they are the kind of rifle you will pass down from generation to generation.
