Tried to do some work with a cross country "Pulk Ski" way back in college. Believe it or not did some winter camping too. Just didnt come together- and I was to busy playing ball back then. Always thought a Pulk sled and a rifle would have made a fun combination to hunt coyotes. Sort of a...

Stopped for a quick prayer for your son in law and your family. Hope the ride was therapeutic. looks good. CL

Beautiful shot. Very similar to a Cooper. Really like those "smaller" raptors. We even get them occ. in the big city here in MN. Always hope they can work on the rabbit population, but I expect thats a bit big for a cooper. Kinda comical watching a red tail try and launch from a lilac bush...

Bison- Harding County? Details would be fun. Thats quite an investment I bet. CL

Thanks- I appreciate the confirmation and positive word. Yup, as Ive noted here ad-neasuam, its a sentimental and very useful favorite, with more cool factor than the venerable 30-30. :eek: :)I have been able to get reasonable accuracy in my friends 99 (also a 1:14) with 39.5 gr of IMR 4350...

Thanks Chaser- I am hopeful. Also hopeful (but not optomistic) that it will warm up enough so I can reload before April. Yet another reason for me to get out of Commysota. CL

My Sympathies sir, for your loss. Indeed the "greatest generation" is a much deserved recognition. I would suggest though, that only time will tell if they are the last. There a many today living quiet, largely unrecognized lives who have also served there country and community. We were...

Been forever since I've seen 100 BT's. Now every body wants a high BC 130 somthin' Execpt ME. 100 GR BTs please. CL

BTW- I asume you are still running your 250 Savage (AI)? Whats working for you. H4350 seemed to have fewer load options listed for the 250. That and $10 less a pound made me take a chance. Maybe I made a mistke? CL

I share your "confusion". Noslers own data currently lists 38,5 grains of H380 as a max load with a 22 inch barrel, 2,802 fps. In my Mauser, Im not to worried, and anyway I wont load for Max any more anyway. Speer shows 35gr of 380 as Max with the 100 Gr hot core, at 2,604 Conversely they...

Well- afetr doing a bunch of looking and then sme research on the Hogdon web site standing an the store I came home w/ a poud of H380. Will be looking to load some 100 Gr BT's. as listed in the Nosler reloading data. as well Also see loads for the 87 Gr and 75 Gr in the Hornady load data. All...

Well- afetr doing a bunch of looking and then sme research on the Hogdon web site standing an the store I came home w/ a poud of H380 instead. Also listed in the Nosler reloading data as well as loads for the 87 Gr and 75 Gr in the Hornady load data. All of which I use in my 250's. We shall...

Does the slower burn rate typically result in higher presures and therefore a reduced charge weight? CL

Passed on an RSI in 250 Sav. 30 years ago. Couldn't afford it when the decision was rifle or Diapers...Doubt that I could afford one today but would still like to have one. CL

Shot mostly H4350 or IMR 4350, mostly because that what Dad was using in IMR 4064. VV N150 is Noslers "most accurate load". Still working with CFE 223, an older version of the speer manual showed good speed w/ 87 and 100 Gr bullets. CL
