Hello all, I've only posted a few times, but have a question. I recently pruchased a .223 for predator/varmint hunting. I've heard some good things about the Hornaday VMax type rounds and figured, hey, I'll give'em a try. Well, they group really well (read REALLY well, the 40gr ones BTW) but I got to wondering if they'd anchor the coyotes properly. I guess I could go with the 52gr BTHP (I've loaded a batch of those as well) but why fix what ain't broke (accuracy wise)? Any opinions??? TIA MarinePMI P.S. Jim Saubier--If you're still interested in the single shot plans send me an e-mail with your snail mail addy. I'll send a photo copy of the pages (can't find a dang scanner to use!!!). Sorry I haven't replied sooner, work's been kinda hectic lately, eh? Modified by MarinePMI at Wed, Dec 26, 2001, 22:32:17 |

I would think that the 40's would be great. And the most important thing is hitting them where you are intending to - which is good since it is your accuracte load. I sent you an e-mail with my address for the plans - I look forward to the reading. |

Okey Dokey Jim, I'll drag the book into work and run some copies off. When you get them, maybe you could scan and post here? I figure there may be some enterprising individuals here who may be up to the task/novelty of building their own rifles from scratch. Thanks again for the input! MarinePMI |
