    Isn't the blunt snout Speer 70 grainer just about perfect for bambis?

    Hey. I'll bet somebody here is a competent machinist who could go into business part time doing this.
    I don't believe I would go that route. Today they are all the same. Colt eventually did change their system. Most people end us making complete rifles rather then having a ton of uppers. The bushing is still the best way to go.

    That one oughta work....the Sierra #1395 65gr GameKing spire point boat tail over 25.2gr H335 is a stone killer out of mine out to 380yds (laser ranged). At least that's the longest kill I have with it.
    An old Cherokee was teaching his grandson about life. "Inside me two wolves fight," he told the boy.
    "One is evil - he is anger, envy, greed, arrogance, self-pity, resentment, lies, false pride, and ego. The other is good - he is joy, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, generosity, truth and faith. The same fight is inside you - and every other person, too."
    The grandson thought for a minute and asked,"Which wolf will win?"
    The old Cherokee replied, "The one you feed."

    Beats the pants off the 458 SOCOM, not that the 45 Raptor doesn't do that too.
