    How do people manage to hit quail?

    Think quail are hard to hit, go after chukkar. I swear I used to average about 2 birds to a box of shells!

    Trail Cameras

    Not a whole lot you can do if there's a lot of stuff in the cameras FOV that can move in the wind. I get a lot of pics caused by wind movement no matter how careful I am about placement, even have fast moving cloud shadows trip the camera. Speaking of which, I need to go down and check mine...

    Ending the animal's life...

    Sounds like a question from someone who shouldn't be hunting in the first place. No one should let animals suffer needlessly. Dispatch your game as soon as you can, including fish and fowl.

    .243?

    Good deer and antelope cartridge, I know a lot of guys use it for elk, but rabbits? Usually won't be enough left worth picking up.

    Winchester 25/20 ??

    RC posted a link to some loads above. Need to be sure and refer to it as the 25-20 SS, totally different animal than the much more common 25-20 WCF. Another place for ammo is here: www.buffaloarms.com/25_20_Single_Shot_Black_Powder_Ammunition%20_it-157971.aspx?CAT=4441

    Winchester 25/20 ??

    Don't rechamber an original 25-20 SS!!!! There never were that many. Sell it for mucho bucks, or shoot it. Do some googling, everything is available, even ammo if to want to pay. Lot of my old friends who did BPC shooting liked it.

    Winchester 25/20 ??

    25-20SS is a pretty obscure old cartridge. You can still find ammo and components though.

    Federal primers

    All those round trays worked fine for everybody's primer boxes till Federal came along with that ridiculously oversized one.

    44 mag. Case Bulge

    Be interesting to know just what the actual case length is for # 1,2, and 3; and just what the actual OAL is for each one. All 3 bullets are obviously seated differently.

    44 mag. Case Bulge

    Be pretty unusual to have enough case length variation on something like a 44 Mag to cause problems of crushing the case when crimping, especially with lead bullets. Proper position of the crimp groove along with correct crimp in a correctly adjusted die will go a long way to avoiding this...

    New RCBS Uniflo corrosion

    Too weird! We definately need some comments from recent Uniflow buyers. Around here where I live the Uniflow is by far the most common measure, everybody has at least one. I've never heard of such things happening.

    Huntin' the old fasioned way, the smart way....

    Looks like a good hunt. You won't get many comments from this mostly lower 48 crowd, just too different for them. You have to live in the villages up north. Where you at? Too many trees for me to recognize the area.

    44 mag. Case Bulge

    Get the die adjusted properly and all problems go away.

    44 mag. Case Bulge

    Yeah, trying to crimp way too much with the die adjusted too short.

    worried about seeing a mountain lion

    We have quite a lion population in this western part of Wyo where I live. There always were a few around, a lot over the last 15 years or so. Even so there's not much livestock loss, but they do put a hurt on the deer. Most are seen at night in headlights while driving these dirt roads. This...
