    Muzzleloader Optics

    For many years i used cheap scopes on my .50 and .54 inline muzzleloaders. Recently dejunked the attic. There was a box that contained 10 or 12 trashed Simmons and Bushnell scopes. About 15 years ago i began outfitting my inline rifles with better quality scopes. My .50 Encore wears a...

    Muzzleloader Optics

    Your muzzleloader don't need a "muzzleloader" scope. Leupold makes a six power scope that works well on inline muzzleloaders. My muzzleloaders are also used almost exclusively during deer gun season and holiday doe season. There are four scoped inline rifles in my possession along with...

    Raccoons Who has hunted them ,Need advice .

    Attach the trap to something sturdy, raccoons are strong critters. Sometimes a raccoon will gnaw it's leg off and escape. i've caught several possums and one skunk in the Duke traps. Sardines and Vienna sausage are good baits.

    Conventional Wisdom on .223 and 5.56?

    Yes, there is this SAAMI myth that 5.56mm cases have thicker walls. This is not true of US produced Lake City 5.56mm cartridge cases. Nor is it true of the TW 67 cases i prefer. All of my carefully prepared accuracy loads use military cases that are individually weighed...

    Load Consolidation

    My reloading has always been for rifles only. Load development for several calibers was completed decades ago. None of my selected powders have become obsolete. Along the way i've added a couple new powders and a few bullets. Numerous loads went away. My loads for the .222 and .223...

    Conventional Wisdom on .223 and 5.56?

    This year i will fire 2,500-3,000 rounds of M193 5.56mm ammunition mostly from my bolt action rifles. Will also fire 1,000-1,500 reloads, vast majority will use military cases. In 1968 i came into a large quantity of 5.56mm ammunition and my .222 Sako was re-bored to .223. That rifle has...

    Conventional Wisdom on .223 and 5.56?

    No. Since 1968 i've fired at least 100,000 rounds of M193 5.56mm ammunition in .223 chambers. BTW: When it comes to AR-15 barrels, especially the least expensive ones; so called .223 SAAMI spec chambers are all over the place. Contrary to popular belief, most chambering is done by day...

    Duty to Inform the LEO if Carrying on Official Contact

    Interesting Read on .22 WMR

    Oklahoma wildlife refuges and Fort Sill forbid the use of center fire rifles and muzzleloaders outside deer season. For years i hunted hogs with the .22 long rifle. Passed on many shots because i wanted the bullet in the ear. Then i purchased a Savage model 93 rifle in .22 magnum. Total...

    A very smart ball board modification

    Yes, ball boards are neat. This carrier holds five patched and lubed round balls. Loads easily by removing the caps and inserting the short starter:
