Long time Hunter/Shooter/Reloader Just Finishing Nathan's Books

Hello,

A little introduction. I've been shooting actively for almost 30 years, hunting and reloading for the last 20. I've been on a few forums...reloadersnest and canadiangunnutz. I've shot about 20 big game animals, the farthest just shy of 400yds. I shoot and load for 7-08, 350 Rem Mag, 303 Brit, 30-30Win, and 223 Rem. I've been checking Ballistic studies for info for a few years now (maybe as long as 5?). I live on the West Coast of Canada and work in the high Arctic near Greenland. My schedule is 2 weeks at work 2 at home. I fly about 6,500km each way. I try to shoot every time I'm home aiming for twice a month.

Lately I've been frustrated with my shooting and got the urge to buy a new rifle as a cure-all. I've also been wanting to support Nathan so I bought the book series. I read several books while flying to and from work and I feel like it has already saved me piles of money.

When I read the books or articles on the website it has directly correlated to my experiences and gives the reasons for the outcomes. I've had deer do long dead runs and deer that are basically DRT with the same rifle, cartridge, and bullet. Nathan's insights have exposed the reason why.

I'm looking forward to rebuilding my shooting from the ground up since as I've been reading I can see and understand the mistakes I've been making.

I'm very excited to begin putting these methods into practice.

Willy

Still chuckling.
