Hello Brad! Thanks for the info. The box claims they are going 1950fps, from a 20" barrel. While I did not shoot for groups, they were so accurate that I just walked them in to zero with this Williams Receiver sight. I will test their drop at 200yds my next trip to the range. I just had my left...

I like to set my peeps sights at 100 with the bullet hitting +2" high. I have no personal info as to how hard or soft this Barnes 255FN is that I'm using, Buffalo Bore Heavy 38-55. Not too worried about it being a hard bullet as .375 cal still cuts a big hole, like Cast almost. I'm thinking rig...

I wouldn't have shot even a buck after shooting hours, ha

I like to use the "Twilight" apertures when hunting, especially in the woods. Out in the desert, plenty of light. I found that I could see a close mule deer well enough to kill it awhile after legal shooting hours. This was on my last hunt with a Mod 336/30-30, about 11 yrs ago! I always c...

I used TAC under the Barnes 160TTSX from a Hawkeye SS 338 Fed, 22" barrel, it was going an average 3007fps! Thtas 7mm Rem Mag territory! I never hunted with it, though my SIL did with the 180 NAB on mule deer. Another friend uses a Tikka 338 Fed and the 185 TSX factory ammo on elk & mule de...

Hey there, New Guy here. I have had this 1978 94 Big Bore, .375 since I bought it new off Gunbroker, back in '99 or '98. I never hunted with it, just shot it at the range, out in the desert at rocks. It always shot very well with the 200 factory load and the 220 Hornady/R7 handload I played with. I ...

Hello fellows, new guy here. I grew up in SE Texas and started deer hunting in 1964. I was an 11 yr old so my single shot 20gr was my "go to" gun, #3 buck. The Model 94 Winchester was the favorite levergun in our club, followed by sporterized military rifles then the Model 740, 742s. I saw...

Thanks pard, found an article, good read. Of course, I'm not going to make up my own 300gr bullet like he did, ha. I just got in two boxes of the Buffalo Bore Heavy 38-55 255fn ammo and it is very well made stuff! If this rifle shoots it well, I'll just stick with it for now. Its been about 8 yrs si...

Just haven't figured out the search feature or something. Was looking to see how to get to the Archives, searchingfor Paco Kelly heavy 375W or 38-55 loads? I have some BB Heavy 38-55 255fn ammo coming.

I tried the Search feature but no results, I have to be doing something wrong I guess. anyhow, was searching for some articles/archives with the above info? any help? I have a Mod 94BB, I have some Buffalo Bore Heavy 38-55 255fn ammo ordered. If it shoots well,I'll take it hunting this fall.
