375 Win is available on request in custom loadings. We recently did 300 grain loads for a forum member.

Mike Rintoul

I cannot provide a recipe because my insurance prohibits that, but I will share some ballistics for you to ponder: 260 gr @ 1100 FPS will be 3"-3.5" high at 50 yds to be dead on @ 100 yds. 260 gr @ 1700 FPS will be 1.75" high @ 50 yds to be dead on @ 100 yds. A 250, 260 or 265 grain b...

I showed this to the kids and in doing so realized I did not congratulate Ricky. So, CONGRATULATIONS RICKY!

Mike Rintoul

Wow, I wonder if good shooting ability is hereditary. That little guy has been hunting more times than a lot of adults. I remember you told me the turkey story, and earlier this year the dove. I hope his luck continues, but what makes you think it's just luck? His series of hits are becoming more co...

Mike Rintoul

I recommend you call me for load data. I am prevented from publishing it in public forum due to insurance and other legalities, but I am happy to provide them for you (I can disclose them to an individual). I can match the load to your rifle and intentions too.

Mike Rintoul

Very tricky, Joe. I feel silly. When I first saw the photo and quickly read your blurb I thought - bad thoughts. Then I saw that there is more to the story linked by others. When I went back to your post I see you put a question mark in your title and "...or so they thought" in your blurb....

Mike Rintoul

Starting them right!

Mike Rintoul

I can't move too fast, bad back problem. I'd expect to have a fair chance to shoot an animal as many times as I could or needed to. If it was hit and heading towards inevitable escape I would expect the PH to shoot to help prevent it. You pay when the bullet makes contact, good hit or bad. In the la...

Mike Rintoul

Nice gun Mike.

Mike Rintoul

We are usually at SCI but this year I will be at SHOT for the first time, and since they overlap I can't do both. We will have all our Extreme Ammo available including the .32 ACP (just completed)! We will have some Safari Ammo and a variety of other stuff too. I'll be in the Law Enforcement section...

Mike Rintoul

I have a 45 Colt Bond Arms 2 shooter, so I can see why you didn't want to be without one for long! Good news on the recovery of that one.

Mike Rintoul

I have a Wild West Guns Marlin in 50AK and I'm having a modern '71 converted to 50-110. Ballistically, I can load them so close that no human nor animal could tell the difference except on paper.

Mike Rintoul

It's nice to see something older than me that still works right!

Mike Rintoul

Hey Huntress - is that you I made the ammo for? Well, for your daughter? I didn't put the name with the face and moniker. Next time just say it is Huntress and I'll know who you are! Glad it got there and produced a smile!

Mike Rintoul

I've received a couple of e-mail inquiries and I appreciate them. Here is a minor clarification. The ammo is available in .375 diameter and up but does not include 375 Winchester. While we have custom loaded some heavy bullets in this caliber I have not field tested them and I don't consider them ad...

Mike Rintoul

rjohns94 - Joe pretty much got it. The 450/400 can be loaded any way you like. Do you have a 3" or a 3 1/4"? pathfinder09 - the 45-70 Safari consists of a 405 gr Kodiak @ 2000 FPS and a 405 gr Punch bullet at 2000 FPS with the same point of impact. By the way, ANY Safari Ammo can be ordere...

Mike Rintoul

New ammo with premium bullets in .375 caliber and up - including classic double rifle cartridges!

Mike Rintoul

I had trouble getting lethal penetration on a giraffe using a 500 Linebaugh with 525 gr lead bullets. The giraffe hide is 1" think and elastic-like in many spots. The meat is stringy and grainy too, like cordura. There's no way I can believe a .22 would make it far enough to find an organ or an...

Mike Rintoul

I've worked with several outfitters to arrange a convenient and cost saving deal for forum members only throughout 2010. Book your hunt with TARSPORTING.com, or an outfitter that will accept a package on your behalf. Purchase 2 boxes of Grizzly Cartridge ammunition. Let me know your outfitters name ...

Mike Rintoul

Congratulations to your youngster! That is a special hunt with a special rifle. Two deer in a season with a sentimental value of astronomic proportions!

Mike Rintoul

All 5 made me laugh! I can just imagine what took place to make him conclude each of them! Words of wisdom for sure!

Mike Rintoul

My oldest daughter is that age. God Bless that whole family!

Mike Rintoul

I apologize that I don't know you and haven't followed your testing, but I need someone to test the .400 Nyati!

Mike Rintoul

Hey Joe, sorry I missed this post earlier. As soon as I read half of it I knew you were going to say the Woodleighs were droppping like a rock. That's your 22" 86? There are really three things happening. First, the rocket effect. This is the amount of gases exiting the muzzle. The gasses are t...

Mike Rintoul

Nice deer. This is one caliber I have yet to load commercially because it works so well as is. I am experimenting with different bullets and weights but I doubt I'll improve performance for what it is used for now. At best we'll offer an option for using this caliber on something a little stouter.

Mike Rintoul

I think Mr. Murbach was first to cite this right and the Greenhill Formula was also mentioned. I will add something I always say that I have learned through experience - A bullet is going to do what a bullet is going to do!

Mike Rintoul

I like the lion story and the warthog story. I am guessing either Jerry was being reserved or you were reporting an edited version of what he was really thinking both times!

Mike Rintoul

Good post, Joe. I think Jerry was one of the real modern day rifleman.

Mike Rintoul

Happy Birthday! Is it still inpolite to ask a woman her age? I think 13, is that right? The reason it is important is that you have proven to be mature beyond your age and you are a role model to other young people your age. You and your parents should be proud!

Mike Rintoul

Now there's a guy I would have loved to hunt with! My hat's off to Uncle Jerry for telling it like it is, keeping it real and maintaining a realistic perspective! Joe, get him to write a book - I'll bet he's full of fascinating stories.

Mike Rintoul

I don't do the gunstock duplication, my son Peter does. His shop address is 337 Park Way in St. Helens, OR 97051. You'd have to discuss it with him, I have nothing to do with it and you can't tell your adult children anything!

Mike Rintoul

Ok - after consulting with the legal team here is the deal. The guy that is turning the bullets for us (Dave) made a back-door deal to sell the bullets to the GI company. They had ammo loaded, I do not know by who at this time. This is a clear cut patent violation. Supposedly, the ammo is being reca...

Mike Rintoul

Sorry about the website - that's another project I've been working on. The prices range from $34.95 and up for a box and the ballistics would be very similar to our other loadings with the same bullet weight in cast. Please call or e-mail info@grizzlycartridge.com or specific info.

Mike Rintoul

The current Etreme ammo expands at handgun velocities and will work at rifle velocities. To be clear, I have a new bullet for rifle like 444, 308, etc that was tested earlier this year. It was called the Hexonic Rocket but that may not be it's final name. It is a hollow point with an octagon cavity ...

Mike Rintoul

Get a spandex cross draw bandolier holster custom made and get a 500 Linebaugh. .22's are for soda cans and mice.

Mike Rintoul

We load a bunch of ammunition pursuant to contract, under other brand labels for various companies. Leave it at that for now.......

Mike Rintoul

The bullet is the new Etreme bullet that we designed and produce in house. It is all copper and will be CA legal. In my first post I specified 44, 45 and 357 for leverguns. The reason is that the Extreme line of our ammo was originally designed for self defense purposes. The 44 Magnum bullet will wo...

Mike Rintoul

The new Grizzly Extreme Ammuniton is legal for the CA condor zone for next year and thereafter. I apologize for not getting it out in time for this year. It has been proven to perform great on deer, hogs and other animals up to 200 lbs and out to 125 yards, depending on caliber. The 44's, 45 Colt an...

Mike Rintoul

Hey Mike - I have a Bond as well and it is a great gun. You grips are a lot nicer than mine, so I may have to get me some.

Mike Rintoul

Ms. Lindsay -

When you get your own rifle, have your Mom give me a call and tell me about it. I'd like to give you a short supply of custom made ammunition so you can keep up the good work!

Mike Rintoul

50-110 in a M 71 for me from me. With 10 kids and now grandkids I don't pass out too many guns for Christmas. Maybe if the Oregon Lottery comes through for me.

Mike Rintoul

Mr. Madman, I was talking about Joe! What got into his soup? Well it does seem the provokative questions get the most in-depth replies and tend to be some of the longest posts, page wise.

Mike Rintoul

You can load a conical bullet to velocities in the mid 800 fps range without blinking an eye in a Ruger OA. I think that is ample if you are confident and accurate at a known distance and don't exceed it while hunting. Limit yourself to a range where you are accurate and you have velocity and energy...

Mike Rintoul

Yeah - why bother (after you shot the Big 5, most of North America's game and been to Europe with yours) when you can shoot a 50 Alaskan in a Marlin or Winchester.

The rain in Texas must be affecting the drinking water.

Mike Rintoul

Lately I hunt everything with a 500 Linebaugh converted Ruger Redhawk 5" bbl.

Mike Rintoul

Try using a good dose of Grizzly Cartridge Co. ammuntion in one of your big guns. That'll do the trick!

Mike Rintoul

Good job, Young Lady. A lot of adults would have quit early on. Your persistent is admirable. I look forward to your version of the story.

Mike Rintoul

I like the fact that you guys waited patiently and got your client very close and personal with the animals, and especially that you were not afraid to instruct him to take a brain shot, even from the back! That makes the hunt much more memorable and highlights Joe and Chris' skills as PH's. Good jo...

Mike Rintoul

Will they be coming to Oregon and how many peaches do I need to buy for a family of 12?

Mike Rintoul

We have developed a new loading for 375 centerfires other than the Winchester. The 350 grain Northfork expanding bullet and solid was researched extensively by Joe Riekers. He wanted a 380 gr bullet but Northfork had issues with the length. Joe got on me enough that I became convinced and I in turn ...
