    What are you using your 204 for?

    .204 I have a Ruger Bolt action, target rifle. Subdued SS barrel and the composite stock. I bought a bunch of the Hornady 32 and 40 gr. V-Max bullets. It is a real tack driver. Used it on ground hog, and it is devastating. I am very well pleased with it. Haven't started to reload for it yet...

    How long do we really think it will take for a BAN ?

    How long? Keep in mind, several of the Justices of the Supreme Court are just about at the point of stepping down. With just two, New, Democratic, Liberal Judges, another case like the recent Heller decision, and we shall see the last of the "Individual Right to Keep and Bear Arms".

    Bullseye shooting: What should I expect?

    Bullseye I have been fortunate to have shot at Camp Perry three times. ('90,'92, and '07). The amazing thing about it is that there is ALWAYS a Great deal of Sun and a Greater Deal of Wind! And if a storm comes off of the Lake, you WILL get Wet. It is probably one of the Most difficult places...

    Bullseye shooting: What should I expect?

    Bullseye Bullseye has been described as the Queen of the handgun shooting sports. Once you get the fundalmentals down, you have to get you head on straight. In fact it is about 20 % fundalmentals and 80 % between your ears. It may take a while to move you average up 5 to 10 points, but keep at...

    Weatherby Mk V

    Weatherby No I do not shoot them. But as the years go, I begin to think that maybe I should buy one. I should get one in the .257 Weatherby. The "H---" with what folks think of you. I just got back from the National Matches at Camp Perry where I shot all revolvers. Whatever works for you. But...

    Went to my "local" gunshop this morning with the intention to purchase a 20 ga. shotgun. I wanted a double, either s/s or o/u. They had the Mossberg's and Brownings, and a Franchi, and a Beretta. I have had two Brownings in the past, and am not all that much of a fan. I did like the Franchi, but...

    New Cooper

    After waiting about six months, as they had stated, I finally received my new Cooper, Model 22, Phoenix, in 6.5 x .284. What a gun. I slowly broke it in, as they suggested, and after firing about 40 rounds, I ended up with a group of .314" and one at .186", using 142 gr. Sierra Match King...

    6.5x.284 Cooper

    Back in May, I asked for help in reforming .284 rem. Brass to 6.5x.284 brass. I had ordered a Cooper Model 22 Phoenix and had found a great price on new .284 Brass. Anyway, "Ol'Joe", "redneck2" and "esheato" gave me some advice, and last weekend I finally got around to working on some brass...
