At what distance do I shoot? I zeroed at 200 yards. Which puts me about 1/2 mildot at 300 meters and 1 mildot at 400 meters. My rifle is fairly flat shooting up to a point. I have shot at 500 meters, but I'm not consistant at that range. I'm loading 106 gr. of H1000 behind a .338 250gr...

I'm looking for Federal or Winchester brass in .45acp. My local and only store that sells new brass sells Remington. When I lived in MN, I had no problem getting Federal. Now even Winchester is hard to find. Anyone else experincing this? I will try Midway, but am a bit miffed that I can't...

I don't have experience in cutting down trees with bullets, but I have cut 2x4's down with a M1carbine when I was in the service. We had to qualify with a .38, a 12Ga. and .30 cal . I soon got bored with shooting the target faces, soooo, when I was firing semi auto with the M1A1, I aimed...

Yes 66% No 33% Fun taking polls,but won't change anything. Big Brother knows best.

Hey OLDGOLD, I've had the same dream about going back to the Alamo with a couple of miniguns on tripods, 20 FNH A4s with Leopold long range scopes, and 200 M1As all with plenty of ammo. It might have ended early though with one clean shot to the head of General Santa Anna! San Antonio would...

Bad sales lady! I live in South East NM. Found a gun shop here that can have an attitude at times. Care to narrow it down to locale? CheyennePilot.

Try some Lithium Bearing grease. It works great on auto front ends, so should work well on your reloader. CheyennePilot

Best iron sighted 30.06 rifle for the buck: + 1 on the M1903 Springfield. Mine came from Sears a while back. Paid $60.00 for it back in the '60s. Of course, everything was cheaper then. Happylandings! CheyennePilot.

I would care to wager that the people who reply with the words " holdover", and "obsolete" are reading too much and not taking the time to actually test fire a 30.06 at their local range. I'm sure they would have a different opinion once they felt the recoil and saw the performance on target...

30.06 loaded with 220 gr. round nose. I also like using a 220 round nose when deer hunting in brush where long range shooting is not an option. I may be wrong, but I believe a heavy round nosed bullet will penetrate small brush with less tendency to deflect, than a lighter spitzer shaped...

I did not recognize the people as Roswell PD. They did not identify themselves to my wife, who had first contact, or me, as Roswell PD. We use Vonage for a Phone service. That maybe part of the problem if we in fact dialed 911. WE Did Not!!! Jeff I tried not to look upset about the...

We didn't get into a long dialog with the officers. We were in bed asleep at the time. We are not wired with a phone company. Our phone is connected with the local cable service, so how could the law enforcement operator confirm a address without returning the call? We didn't request that...

Last night around midnight, my family was awakened by a knock at the door. The Roswell police were let in by my wife after they said they received a 911 call from our address. My dog charged into the livingroom in protect mode, but I was already out of bed and intercepted her before any...

Wow. After getting a close look at the Weatherby Mark V and the ammo, I'm glad to be loading my 338/378 ammo. $89.95 for a box of 30/378? I guess it's all perspective. Won't be long before gasoline will be $6.00 a gallon. HappyLandings? CheyennePilot.

Today was the first time in over a year! I took my son with me. We found Some public land that most of the other poor folks must go. We zeroed his .300WSM , and shot a couple of boxes of 12ga. #7 1/2. After that We did some off road hill climbing with his Jeep Wrangler. Now that's my kind...

I was at the Scottsdale AZ Airport last May for some recurrent flight Sim. training. One afternoon I visited Dillion's store and assembly plant. I was given a tour of the operation, and their hanger. I was very impressed with the quality control during final assembly prior to shipment of the...

Thanks for the info. I pulled them according to your advice RecoilRob. The bullets look great. The Col was 3.665", which was off the lands. I was concerned about the steeper neck angle. Well, after resizing, the neck angle looks better and the slight buldge at the neck base is gone. If...

I set my .338 /.378 Weatherby seating die too short and compressed the necks of two cases. I would like to pull the bullets and try to resize them. My kinetic puller is too small for the job. Is there another method, or do ruin the bullets by using a pliers? The cartridges will chamber, but I...

I gather alot of you consider the glock as some kind of manly handgun. I'm not impressed with it. It does have a use though. At tupperware parties for show and tell. HappyLandings! Cheyenne Pilot

I have a H&R chambered in 30.06. mounted a Leo Mark 1 and could keep a 1 1/2 in. group at 100 yards. Traded a win mod 97 for it. Refinnished and glass bedded the stock. I'm happy with it. Happy landings! Cheyenne pilot
