Damp basement storage should be a plus. I have 4350 from the 1970's that works just like new and some Dupont Pistol powder from before that still goes bang. Check other variables. At our club range one of the benches is tilted and has a wobble. Sandbags instead of a bipod help but it's usually...

Have a old Remington 722 short action. Curious about the 25 creedmore. What's involved? Who does good work?

My OAL is 3.29" However, if the factory load is working and using that bullet, I would use factory OAL, brass, and try to replicate that load.

A consistent load I have used was a 100 grain Nosler BT and IMR 4831. IMR 4350 works equally well.

next step will be offering bounty to tell on your neighbors who buy out of state. California follows Texas abortion laws to create gun laws.

Looks like it has been pulled for now. Needed 60% of the senate for this type of legislation on this type of bill apparently. A related order by Trump just came out to allow road construction, development and such on National Forest land in currently roadless areas. My Dad designed alot of the...

I have similar issue with 7x57 on short action. I use flat base bullets, which work great. The Nosler partitions would likely be my first choice for big game. Sierra 87 grain varminter for small game is most accurate in 25 cal i have found. You might investigate the Hornady 117 round nose...

I like the 168 BT's for Mulies. Shots here run 30 to 450 yards. IMR 4895. Also have used 150 accubonds. At 30 yards made a mess of a front shoulder, tho I don't know if anything wouldn't have. W760. Slow, about 2400 fps from 18" barrel. Good accuracy with 178 ELD X and 180 Accubond, if I use...

Senators from Idaho opposed. Spokesman Review

This is a map of the national public lands in 11 western states that could be sold under the Senate version of the BBB. It's a huge amount of land. Much include important watersheds for city and agriculture. You can check and see if it is places you hunt or get your water, travel thru etc...

Found a 300 Savage case that looked like that. Only one.

NIce, I got the 308 since it has a bigger hole so it's lighter:sneaky:

This powder isn't behaving like other powders. I had to scrub the granules off and it left a dark stain on the plastic.

Opened a bottle of titegroup today to try some subsonic loads in 308 as a replacement for TrailBoss. Took 12 rounds out to the range and it shot well at 50 yards. Came back in to load some more and found the powder stuck to the sides of the clear plastic hopper on my RCBS measure. Even dawn...

Ladder tests of loads don't produce that large a spread. Other than scope problems, the only time I have seen groups like that was from unstable bullets tumbling due to a slow twist and low velocity. The bullets whet thru the paper sideways. Just for curiosity you could pull some of the loads...
