Well, I'm what you call a certified rifle nut. I got into it late in life, since I didn't have anyone to show me the ropes. I pretty much thought myself how to shoot and later to reload. I came here in 1983 from the Philippines and became a naturalized US citizen 20 years ago. I'm 53 years old and happily married to a wonderful wife and blessed with a daughter who is now 19. I live in Southern California since I came to this country.

I like to hunt and fish and shoot every chance I get. I love longrange shooting discipline. I own several rifle both custom, semi-custom and factory also. My primary long range hunting rifle is my Model 70 Laredo LRH chambered for the 300 Win Mag. For extreme longrange shooting I use my 338 Lapua Ackley Improved. For median range, I use my 308 built on a Model 700 Remington short action. I recently built a 6.5-284 Norma as a dual purpose rifle, both as a big game and varmint hunting. I also own a Weatherby Accumark chambered in 300 Weatherby Magnum. It will be my main big game rifle to replace the 300 Win Mag which is currently with my smith to be re-barreled. I also own several dedicated varmint rifle which you're going to hear more in the future Grin

Thanks Sean and Sam. I use Exbal and I'm very happy with it so far. Which ballistic program is this that you're talking about?

Regards,
