    Nuisance Deer

    I don’t know if this is the right place to go with this or not. I have a problem with deer getting in my vegetable garden and corn patch and destroying it. In the past I wasn’t to the point of doing something drastic to eliminate the problem. With fertilizer costing $25 per 50lbs and everyone...

    Opening Day

    Dove season opens in about an hour and 15 minutes. We have plenty of birds despite Ida trying to wreak havoc on our shoot. This is the 3rd year the weather has given us opening day troubles. I think this one will over come Ma Nature’s fury.

    Another “What kind of Caps”

    I’m fairly new to the Black Powder muzzle loader world but not BP cartridges. The “Great Shortage” was well underway when I got the Old Army, so finding supplies has been tough. I already had plenty of BP on hand, a few lbs anyway, make my own lube and wads and usually cast my boolits. So far I...

    Henry’s Customer Service

    I have, since announced, wanted a 327 lever gun. Finally found one about 9 months ago. With all of life’s happenings I didn’t get to shoot it until this week. Boy was I disappointed. I went to a local outdoor range with the Henry and a few revolvers. I set some targets at 25 yds and had a...

    Trail Boss Expensive ?

    I read several threads on Trail Boss and a comment that is usually made is about how expensive it is to use.

    HS-6 ???

    I'm looking for opinions on HS-6 in straight walled pistol calibers. I've used Unique for light loads and IMR4227 for heavy loads. HS-6 is about middle way between those two on the burn rate chart, close to AA5. I've used 1 pound of AA5 and really liked it but can't find any. I've seen HS-6 in...

    Colorado Elk Hunt

    Going to try to ask a bullet question without starting a debate. I will be shooting a 280 Rem. I have accurate loads worked up in the 2900-3000 fps range for 150 grn Nosler Partitions and 139 grn Hornady Interbonds. Both work very well on Alabama whitetails, but which for a SE Colorado elk would...

    Dove season opens in Northern Alabama in 4 hours and 54 minutes. Got plenty of birds over top sown wheat and water at my place. Brother #1 is flying in from Pittsburgh and Brother #2 is driving up from Tuscaloosa. With some local friends and my two sons I believe it's going to be a good one...

    44 Lasercast 240's

    Anyone have any data for Lasercast 240 LSWC with IMR4227? I've loaded a lot of lead with Unique, but these have a BHN of 24 so I'm wanting to push these a little harder than what I normally push a lead bullet. And by the way I have Serria, Speer, Hornady and Lyman Manuals.

    Black Hawk Questions

    I've just purchased a new Ruger SBH Hunter in 41mag and have a question about the cylinder lock up. When you open the loading gate the cylinder free spins as it's suppose to. When you close the loading gate the cylinder still spins. It doesn't lock until you back the hammer. It stay locked if...
