It reloads with the same dies as the .308 Win. Different shell holder. I
thought it used the same data, but, I checked my Hornady manual and it is
200 FPS slower with a 150 grain bullet. I wonder if it could be loaded up in

Than shooting bear or even moose.

I agree with Steve that voting for UKIP is not the best option (although I
don't share any love of the EU). I think it will only split the opposition
vote and risk letting Labour in again with a big majority. This whole voting
