Joe- is that an Axis in a Boyds stock? If so which one? Pretty nice lookin' rifle. CL

Interesting, confusing potentially- but interesting. And any new .25 is a good thing! CL

Thanks for the reply. Rifles are a mis-macthed pile of Mauser parts, or a friends i930's vintage Savage Model 99. That help? CL

I mis-read the load data before I bought my most recent pound of powder.... could some one with Quick load run the following for me please: For the 250-3000 Savage: Remington Case CCI 200 primer Hogdon H380 powder Hornady 75 gr. V-Max bullet Of course I can find data for 87 and 100 grain...

Na- gotta leave room for the "Duck Tape". I woulda said JB Weld, but Ive been guilty of that myself- just dont tell my wife I got some on the kitchen table... :). Nice CZ. If the Ruger was cheap enough and you needed a "kitchen door" gun......???? CL

Sympathies to your daughter and all who enjoyed that beautiful animal. Always wanted to have a soft spot for a horse.... life just never worked out that way. Pretty cool that she had that opportunity. Made me think of one of my favorite poems and poets.....

Thanks for the update Jim. I had to read that three times before that started to make some sense.... some.... still. They didn't replace it. They just Neutered it. I Put on 500 miles going home for Easter. counted three coons and a coyote road kill. I guess the Ford is more efficient at...

I paid $30 a box for .257 Balistic Tips a couple weeks ago. You done good! CL

Look for posts from "Joel" AKA 257 Ackley on this board. He used to hang out here years ago and was an ardent fan and accomplished reloader, hunter, and shooter. 100 Gr BT's or 110's would think , would work in a 1:10 twist. My250 Savage likes them. Those with more knowlege than me have...

I too have seen and lived around those "boots" most of my life, and I am talking about hunting or spending time with those same people. I have standing invitations... but I cant afford it , or those same folks do not feel the (direct, any way) benefit of my liscence $ investment. And I feel...

So a week or two ago I looked up what it would cost for me to get my "coyote license" (predator lisc.) back home for 2026. Price went up another ten bucks....okay....what hasn't. But then that's $75 to go home and carry a rifle with my cousin's. :eek: C'mon... So lets see, the state has a...

" Xpediters"- never heard of those. Ive got a box of that super X myself. And an old Outers "hard Maple" cleaning rod myself. Fun stuff to see thanks for posting. CL

Only 8 inches - 18- 20 in SE Mn. Of course the wind and cold are next. My mistake, the girls tournaments were this week- boys are next week. Wonder if we'll get another dose. CL

12-15 inches of "Spring" forecast here in the next 48 hours. Its time for boys state B-ball tournaments here. That's about average most years. That -5 below temp forecast for Tuesday night is gonna suck though. CL

Sorry- you said all that earlier in this thread. Ugh- I hate chasing the variables- If it was me doing the shooting, I would blame it on "operator error". If you are confident in your replacement scope, then maybe its a powder/ load issue although it dosen sound like that. I recall at one...
