    Which truck / Chevrolet or Ford

    I got a heck of a deal on my current Ford truck, 2013 F-150 XLT 5.0 4x4, due to a discount number provided by a Ford employee "relative". It has 140,000+ miles and has been very reliable and has handled some very rough terrain in New Mexico and Colorado.

    257 Roberts with H4350

    When I started reloading for the Robert's back in 1982, I found a load in a very old Pacific reloading manual for 117 gr bullet and 47grs of H-4831. It was way more velocity (2900 fps) than any load in any manual. I gave it a try and it shot really small groups with the 117 Sierra. I...

    257 Roberts with H4350

    Swapping from Evinrude ETEC to Suzuki

    One of my friends etec went down because of the ignition computer or what ever it's called. He can get a used one for around 1500 and add labor with no guarantee. He's looking for a new or newer outboard.

    Loading Nosler 100 grain BTSP in .257 Roberts

    Remington made a stainless model 700 classic in 257 roberts that was short action. One of the Sierra bullets with the short ogive might be a good option.

    Put together 270win

    Nice featherweight. One of my proven loads for my featherweight uses H -4350 and a 130 partition but with a load around 20% higher than what you loaded.

    HOLD THAT, Stop Everything!

    When I was a kid, my mother froze everything dad and I brought home, fish, quail, dove, frog legs, et al in milk cartons. Back then we used a lot of milk and it was delivered to the door. Does anyone still make waxed paper cartons?
