I picked up a Ruger standard made in 1952. Pretty much pristine including the original grips with the black Eagle medallion.

I’ve loaded the 120 BT in my daughters Remington model 7 in 7mm-08 for years at a reduced load. It’s taken a few whitetail, a mule deer and some Antelope with no issues. This year I put a new Leupold with the CDS and decided we should probably try and get a little more speed out of that...

Sorting through some brass and bullets and doing a little organizing. Unfortunately the top of the box has duct tape over it. It would’ve made a nice display box.

Knowing I’d never have enough points for a Wyoming bull tag, my buddy convinced me to put in for a cow tag near Cody. I went I as a partner on the draw with another guy. We filled his tag the first night we hunted on Saturday. My tag got punched on Sunday. It was the hardest critter I’ve...

My daughters and I came over to Wyoming to do some antelope hunting. Our tags had to be used on, or within a half mile of irrigated land so our choices were limited. But they both tagged out yesterday and I filled my tag today. I’d like to say we ALL used Nosler bullets, but my youngest...

I haven’t fired my .35 Whelen since Africa, in May of 2012. Took the rest of the loads I had to the range today and fired one shot at 200 yards. They are 250 grain PT’s. After I saw the target I packed up and went home.

I have a really accurate, but stout load for my .450 Marlin using the Remington 405 grain bullet. My guide gun doesn't wear a scope so the gun isn't very heavy and quite frankly the load isn't very pleasant to shoot. I dropped down a bit in the powder charge and now have a load that doesn't...

So I've been sitting around all week on vacation twiddling my thumbs. I think it's the first time I've ever taken time off and just stayed home. I had some days to use or I would lose them and I'm not about to give time back. My buddy called and we decided to hit the range. It's rainy and...

Question for those of you that have had, currently have or just plain know the answer. Did Speer make a 220 grain bullet for the .348? Ran across a guy that says he has some. I can't find much on the internet but maybe I'm not looking in the right place. My guess is they may be as old as me.

Anyone used the .458 round nose 300 grain BT out of a .450Marlin/45-70 on anything bigger than a deer? I've got a ton of the Remington 405 grainers, enough that I will probably never shoot them in my lifetime, but wouldn't mind experimenting with a lighter bullet, but I want a tough one...

Had a good trip to SE Montana this past week. Saw a ton of deer on private land and plenty to go around on public, if you were willing to work a little bit. My buddy that I work with and served in the Marines with have hunted together for 25 years. We did the same trip two years ago and...

Guys, gals and any extraterrestrial's that may have experience doing this, I have a question. In my 30+ years of reloading I've never removed any live primers from a case. I have 20 cases that were given to me with primers and I want to take them out. What's your best method to insure you...

Don't know why I'm so busy right now, but it seems like this year is going by way too fast. I've been able to get some fishing in at a lake close by. Here's a haul of rainbows my daughter and I caught about 9 days ago. I'm going to try and get out at least one day, each of the next two...

So I picked up a Ruger. SR1911 today. I haven't had a 1911 in a long time and I've had the itch to get one for a few years, just had other priorities. I started my Marine Corps years with a 1911 on post before they made us go to the 9mm. Then I carried a Colt Commander for about 5 years at...

I can't hardly describe how epic the sturgeon fishing was on Wednesday in the Columbia river. I caught 21, landing 18, having 3 get off after fighting them for a bit. One ended up breaking the hook after about a 10 minute battle. Two fish went over 7 feet, with many more in the 6 foot...

I was at a graduation party the other day and the Dad asks me if I want to see his new gun, uhh yes! Pulls out a stainless 3 inch, full underlug, 5 shot .44 Special with no lock. Guessing a L frame as it appeared identical to my 686 3 inch. I have seen the .45's before but never a .44...

So my 686 plus, 3 inch got a nice piece of leather to ride around in.

Picked up my new 686 today. Headed to the range tomorrow.

My permit for spring bear in Western Washington starts today. Once I get some grocery shopping done I'll be heading for the hills. I've decided to bounce back and forth between my .450 Marlin and .35 Whelen for the hunt this year. I haven't taken anything with the Whelen since I went to...

I'm currently in Bend for work. Heading down to the Nosler factory in a few minutes for a tour. Should be very interesting.
