[@craigjentsch]

I am one of those 1/4 bore guys. I still love my 25-06 would love to see the 25 creedmoor get SAAMI approved. Great podcast

[@flyingirish31]

Bullet Central has always been excellent customer service for me also. Very interesting about his experience. But I haven’t had to import/export.

[@carlLackey-qk8sd]

Good stuff!

[@JamesDevine-r9w]

12 minutes in...haha.. hilarious watching Piet keep it together with the delay, must be sooo frustrating 😂😂

[@IMPACTSHOOTING]

the worst part was he was breaking up so bad, i could only hear about every 2nd word :-)

7mm saw !

Hornady doesn’t make phenomenal ammunition. And it never really did. 😂

[@MTCKIE68]

Clearly, you didn't listen to what he said. 🤔 He's talking about their bullets. He reloads his ammo, everything. Everyone knows the Hornady brass Sucks and isn't good quality. But their bullets are in the top 5 easily !

[@flyingirish31]

⁠he said “their ammunition”. Then he said he doesn’t buy loaded ammo though. You clearly didn’t listen. And their bullets are not high quality either. Save maybe A-Tips. I’ve weighed ELD-Ms with more than 5% variance in weight. It’s not a good company for components either.

[@MTCKIE68]

@flyingirish31 Actually, he said cartridges. But he only uses their bullets. OK ! Whatever you say about Hornady, you must be a hatter ! Their stuff isn't "professional grade," or perfect, and most people know that. But it's just fine for regular folks. Especially the bullets. It's funny how you are watching the company whose ammo and brand are using Hornady 🤔 🤣. But I guess you believe that it's smart to talk negatively about the 2A community manufacturers. Instead of explaining what they are best suited for.

[@flyingirish31]

@@MTCKIE68 not a hater. They just aren’t truthful about the quality of their components. I actually like A Tips for comps. They are a great marketing company and their recent chamberings they developed with GAP are excellent. But their “cartridges” and their components save A Tips are not being produced for very good QC. And the outright lie about their BCs on everything. They probably inflate them more than anyone in the industry. And I watch a lot of things. Nothing funny about it. But it does speak to the bias of the interviewer…so thanks for bringing it up.

[@MTCKIE68]

@@flyingirish31 So like I said what they make aren't for you or folks like you. They are geared towards the everyday people who don't need exact perfection. You do realize their employees use the same bullets in competition and are doing just fine. I guess you think Berger, Lapua, Peterson and others are perfection when I know for a fact they aren't. They all have imperfections and nothing is exactly the same that's why they have lot #s. You can look online and see Fclass and Bench Rest shooters sorting brass and bullets from those 3 mentioned companies. They want exact perfection. So for less than 15,000 people in the United States want perfection 🤔. Interesting why you even run your mouth to begin with. Nothing factory is as good as handloading and everyone knows it. I'm Damn positive you can't shoot like Piet in competition or hunting !! And for the record I'm not a Hornady fan and don't own any of their reloading stuff. But I'm not the one talking negative about the company. You must be a liberal 🤣.

Man I was going through some 22 creed info with 16" barrels an guys are getting 3700fps with a 53-55 grain vmax... im selling the 22-250's

[@flyingirish31]

Ok this guy is just a shill. Not Pieter. The host. Here’s the deal with barrels, it all depends on runs of steel. Beyond how to cut a chamber correctly and how well its rifling is lapped it comes down to that. You cannot be brand allegiant. Have to follow the steel lots. And factory ammo, particularly from Hornady is terrible. I’m so sick of podcasts like this and their podcast making excuses for poor QC.
