    Is the 10mm making a resurgence

    Don't knock the glocks. I have never been a glock fan till my brother got one then a buddy bought a kimber elite in the 10mm for bear protection but it came with a $1500 price tag. Sweet gun but only held 8 rounds in the mag. I would love a gun like that but settled on the the glock 20 that has...

    What Gun For Bears?

    What I tell people is get a gun that you are comfortable shooting! You don't need to lug around an African dangerous game safari rifle for a little black bear. I was in the ADF&G office a few years ago and some guy was taking his 12 year old daughter hunting for her first black bear. He was...

    I will work up another load of Rel22 and Nosler accubonds and see if it has a new sweet spot now that the original pressure point is gone and with a shim in a different area.

The only thing I was able to put in the channel was a single slice of electrical tape. Went out and shot it again and BLAM!!!!! That did the trick...

    7mm-08 powder choice

    I worked up a load for my wife's Ruger M77 that shot very accurate groups with an impressive velocity out of a 20 in pipe. 140grain Barnes TTSX w/48.5gr Rel17 and CCI 250 mag primers. This load has a chronographed velocity of 3030 fps and will shoot under a half inch at 100 yards out of her...

    Rem 700 accuracy issues

    I have a Remington 700 LSS in a 338 RUM with a 5-20 leupold VX-3. When I first got the gun set up and shot a box of factory fed ammo with 210 Nosler partitions I was super impressed with the accuracy of the gun. I was getting a nice tight clover leaf at 100 yards. I bought some 225 gr Nosler...
