I think your crimps look great. I understand some posts about the crimp on the Hornady's being a bit over done but Hornady rolls such a deep cannelure it's hard for me to get it uniform on a 360 circumference unless I bottom it out in the cannelure. I work around that to a certain extent by...

It's common for the break to happen when the point is starting to punch through, have you tried punching back from the other side yet?

An old Winchester defender loaded with 00 buck is at my immediate disposal in the bedroom.

Some of my .357 handloads with Winchester 296 fired in a friends 3" SP101. Successive frames from the video, as you can see it's my avatar photo.

My uncle served in the Korean War, he told me of walking up on two North Korean soldiers on the trail telling me as they were raising their rifles to shoot he took them both down. I believe this was his first experience with combat. I vividly remember his comment about it being the most...

I enjoy the leisurely pace of time at the bench with this one, I like the 50 caliber holes too.

The way I see it there's little difference as to difficulty between the two. The issue is blackpowder MUST be cleaned if you don't want to damage it, smokeless powder not at all. I frosted the bore on my Hawken by forgetting it a few days, on the other hand I've inherited non BP guns that hadn't...

I think dogs can be trained to detect anything. I'm sure I've left the house wearing Eau d'Hoppes, they would be all over me.

What a wonderful way to spend a day, thanks for sharing it with us.

The series 70 Gold Cup that I sold in a moment of great stupidity back in the 80's.

Yep, it is indeed tragic, and to further the tragedy I'm sure they would take such action knowing darn well that there is no public good or societal benefit from it.

Beautiful Rifle! Nice shooting too, you must be young, even with peep sights I can't do that. I've pretty much gone to scopes.

I do find it interesting that a database of mass shootings from 1982-2022 which I found at Mother Jones.com listed 133 mass shootings of which 28 of them were 21 years of age or younger. If indeed this is accurate information it would seem the juveniles are the outlier. Making legal policy based...

To all those endorsing a certain age for firearms ownership lets remember that the Las Vegas shooter that killed 60 people was 64 years old.

I have never seen that crimp before either, only a ring crimp.

Here's a little write up on it, looks like good stuff. https://www.army.mil/article/48657/evolution_of_the_m855a1_enhanced_performance_round

My Ranch Rifle has a sweet spot with 25gr of W748 behind a 55gr Hornady BT. It shoots 1 moa with that load, velocity average is about 2700, don't care if I lose 300 if it puts em where I want em. Funny thing, I don't expect any two rifles to do the same thing but I got talking to another guy at...

Another Sackets fan here, Quigley Down Under, Both True Grits. Everything else ya'll have mentioned, dang it's hard to single out a favorite.

I'm kind of there, this is my first post on THR in probably a year and a half. The societal upheaval covid brought on knocked me completely out of my groove, I probably have been to the range only 3 or 4 times since. There's always something that piques my interest, I don't have a Browning High...

I haven't shot Yellow jackets in a very long time but I remember the experience well. Apparently they haven't gotten any better. CCI always seems to go bang, as for budget bulk ammo I've had very good luck with Federal Auto Match.
