Jeff; I’m c close friend of Benny Arego (Hot Springs, AR). He turned me onto my Sako TRG-42 27.5″ barrel (.338LM)specifically it was Eric Poole who wrote an artical “quest for cold bore accuracy” that caught my attention and search. Crazy Benny via John May at Wilson Combat turned me onto Benny over a year ago. I’ve successfully “doped” data to 1500M at Ft Benning using Seirra MK-BTHP with BH Gold. Woould really likek to know the propellant or similar perfomer in case you’ve “blended” a reciept. I get <.5MOA at 500M and the weapon's zero is 300M. No issues pounding steel at 1000M. I plan to use Lapua brass, FED 215M, VVN165 and Sierra 250gr MK-HTBT… your propellant recommendation is greatly appreciated. Damon Gooch, US Army, ATL, GA. GREAT articles. Help!

That everyone seems to enjoy their work and take such pride in it is a credit to them and the team ethos prized by the owner/manager. Well done Black Hills!

Having just done some rather extensive work and testing with Black Hills .308 Win. match ammunition and .223 Rem. match and varmint ammunition for a magazine article project, I can say flat out they make some great shooting quality ammunition. It was a pleasure to get a break from the reloading bench and to just take a few boxes of Black Hills factory ammunition and go the the range and do some accurate shooting. Great job Black Hills and all those who make it happen!
