Why are you writing an article about something you seem to know little about ?
I have tested over 100 different loads in about 200 different T-99 rifles . Yes I have used the H-150 in about 25 different loading . Overall it is the best bullet for the T-99 for accuracy . The...
For those who got into this late , the purpose was to see what bullets could be used for long range 7.7mm Type 99 shooting . Since there are really no readily available .311 bullets that would be...
No , at my Shooting range close to the house . I am headed to the ranch Fri for the weekend . I have a big herd of hogs running around . The does are due to drop fawns soon and I need to keep the...
Rifle used was a T-99 Nag S-4 . Berger . 308 190 VLD bullet . First load I-4350 52.2 c CCI-250 , OCL -3.225 Velocity 2625 FPS 5-shot 100 yard 2.8 . Good round holes , right to battle...
There will be no group results posted as this is top secret !!!!!!!!!! I will post results as soon as I get time to shoot . I may have to alter the powder charge as the small bullets with less bore...
They do not have to expand to stabilize , all they have to do is grab enough rifling to get a good spin. Hopefully the real long bullet will stay straight in the bore .
I found some .308 195 and 210 VLD bullets in my supplies . I will figure up some loads and get some loaded up for testing . I doubt the T-99 has enough twist to stabilize any more weight than the 210...
You sure do not ask easy to answer questions . Military rifle bore , chamber , throat dia and leade sizes can be all over the place , so there is no set answer . T-99's are the worst , it seems each...
It is a little more complicated than that. First it will depend on when your rifle was made , early rifles have larger size bores and will shoot best with different bullets than late made rifles . ...
I have never tested any of mine over 300 yards . The 150 sp fb is not going to be a real good bullet for real long range , poor BC . If you are wanting to shoot 650 + , you are going to need a heavy...
First I would check the groove again on your T-99 , Your .3115 is really tight . Great if it is . The best overall Bullet I have found for T-99 shooting is the Hornady .312 150 sp , shoots the best...
All I can say is ouch ! I wonder if the original owner also wrote his name in his underwear ?
The military 7.7mm Arisaka bullet is right at .310 and the groove can be between .312 to .316 [ same for most .303's ] . The average WWII British .303 bullet is about .3095 . Both are bore riding...
C&R broke two by using the wrong bullets and loads in their handloads . They broke them by not knowing what they were doing , not the rifles fault .
After test shooting many different loads in over 200 T-99 rifles , I found that bullet to be about the worst for accuracy .
I was typing while listening to my wife say something , so the one group should clearly not be .09 but .90 . Plus the other spelling errors . Yes , single loading for accuracy can be different than...
The first mistake for military rifle shooting for accuracy is trying to duplicate military loads . The 220 load for the Krag was pick for pine board penetration , not accuracy . Another problem is...
Mine is a pleasure to shoot . I plan to take it buffalo hunting one day .
If you do not mind , could you give us a little run down on hunting in Italy ? What regions , what game , what rules ? Also how do the anti-hunters mess with you ? Luckily in Texas we have laws to...
Are you talking about hunting in Italy ? Or just everywhere .
The 6mm Rem has always been her favorite , always goes back to it after trying something new . We had used 100 grain bullets for a while , but I wanted to try the 80 grain at high speed . It shoots...
Got two more hogs Fri night with a Marlin lever in 35 Rem . Wife showed up for the Sat hunt , we saw nothing good . We split up for Sun morning . I heard her shot . She got a nice 8 pt whitetail...
Liability is a major problem for land owners . Anybody can sue for whatever reason now days . I know of a case where a guy was hog hunting , fell asleep and fell off of a low platform he was sitting...
Ovidio , you are always welcome to invite yourself hunting here the next time you are in the USA . It is the start of Texas deer season as of Nov 4th , so I was really just deer hunting . I just shot...
