This past Sunday came cruising through about an hour after daylight. She first spotted him about 150yds out. He made a bee line to us and turned at about 60yds, that's where I stopped him. She dropped him in his tracks with my 280 Rem.
I load reduced recoil for her 7mm-08 but hadn't confirmed...
An odd thing happened to me over the weekend. Loaded up some ladder loads of 28 Nosler using Hodgdon US 869. I had 6 rounds loaded, first 2 increasing .4gr increments. Last 4 rounds going up in .3gr increments. The goal was to record velocity of each charge weight.
Chronograph was set about 3 -...
I know about twist rates and what they mean as far as what weight bullets they will stabilize. But more often I'm hearing shooters talk about getting a custom barrel that starts out with X twist rate and ends with X twist rate. Like " my new barrel starts with 1:10 twist rate and ends in 1:9"...
My newest purchase.
Purchased (factory new condition) from a seller on GB I've bought from many times before with no issues. All stickers and labels attached from factory, but was disappointed to see some fouling in the barrel. I guess it was from factory firing before shipping. I was able to...
Okay these are 22-250. Fired maybe a year ago, H380 powder. They've been sitting in my "to be processed" lot but I'm just now getting to them. After depriming/resizing and going around the necks with Scotch Brite, vibratory tumbling for about 6 hours in walnut media, they look like this. Some...
This should be fun.
1. How many calibers you load for?
2. How many different brands of bullet you got?
3. What brand do you have the most of?
For me...
1. 15 (14 rifle + 9mm)
2. 6 (Hornady, Barnes, Berger, Sierra, Nosler, Speer)
3. Sierra.
I have a make of Sierra in every caliber I...
Was able to shoot my Christensen Arms Mesa for the first time over the weekend after hunting and I'm tickled pink so far. I didn't get to shoot groups just messing around. I had one sand bag shooting off of a brick pillar. No load development just book recommended OAL and 1.5gr below Barnes...
All around the same price. No practical need. Just a want. Deer, maybe elk hunting and paper punching. Bronze Savage is 110 High Country. Carbon barrel is 110 Ultra Light
So, I logged on Wednesday with the intention to find and buy a Winchester Model 70 Sporter in 7 Rem Mag to go along side my Featherweight in 264 Win Mag.
But to my dismay, the only one I could find was on GB for $1500. Can't do it... Winchester website says they're discontinued...:eek:
So I'm...
I've been eyeballing these for months and this is the cheapest I've ever seen em. A solid chassis system for $272 (plus you can get another 8% off with father's Day code) and free shipping was too good to pass up..

So I ordered my Christmas present to myself!!! From what I'm getting on the internet it seems RL17 is the preferred powder for 270 WSM. Has anyone here had good results from other powders for it?
If so how was your results? Velocity and accuracy wise.
I've been wanting to get to this project for about 5 months and finally got around to it. Got a lot of good advice from some folks over on the Savage forum.
This is my first attempt at bedding aside from bedding the blocks on my Ruger American Predator in a Boyd's At-One. This one is a Savage...
I'm about to try my hand at coyote hunting. I have the call and decoy on the way. My plan is to set up on field edges with call and decoy about 100yds away.
To anybody that hunts them in the Southeast, what's your prefered strategy for this time of year?
Got my $54 remington 770's dressed up and ready to go. A The top rifle (7mm Rem Mag) just got a Boyd's Spike Camp. I love Boyd's stocks. This is my 4th Boyd's stock but if it had been my first it would definately be my last. One of my previous stocks required a little Dremel work , but this one...
With bottleneck rifle cases. Just curious if you chamfer and debur after every resizing even if you don't TRIM? I have since day one but wondering if it's really necessary.
Thanx in advance THR
Does anything know where I may be able to find a single shot feed ramp (follower) for a savage 12fv. Only ones I'm finding are for staggered feed magazines. I need one for center feed.
Mossberg patriot walnut stock. I had one in 270 and it shot great.
165gr Sierra GameKings HPBT
Left to right H4895, RL19 and RL16 all loads 1gr below book max. Brass looked totally fine from all 3.
3 shot groups. I only do 3 shot groups till I find a promising load to continue with. I have...
I have a friend that offered to sell me his never fired SCCY CPX 9mm for $150. He doesn't remember if it's a CPX1 or CPX2. I'm at work so unable to do much research at the moment but the few YouTube videos I've seen have been favorable. And they're selling for more than that right now on...
Anybody seeing shipping times starting to stabilize from any of the popular websites?
My oldest order yet to be shipped was ordered on March 30th. Latest one was Apr 13th.
This is not a complaint, the were notices on both websites and I'm in no rush for either order. Just wondering if anybody...
