Have threatened to rechamber my long action Mauser in 250 Savage to 257 Roberts. Better fit for that action and a very underrated round IMHO. BTW jealous of your rifle, that super nice goat and great Trophy picture! CL

Noslers load Data says 2653- WAY slower than I wish it was. However, I find it super rewarding, so you can bet there will be a few of these along to the range for when I want to show off. Besides, my go to load for hunting is also listed in the Nosler data as the most accurate load for IMR...

39 Grains of H380 seems to work! Will need to shoot again to verify, but looks like I FINALLY found a load for the 87Gr Speer that my Mauser will shoot! Also shot a three shot group at 41 Gr pictured on the "38" Grain target is also looking promising. Bolt lift is a little stiff though and 39...

Well, This took for ever! I was never satisfied w/ my efforts or shooting on this Load. Somewhere in the intervening years I loaded up 20 more. Had a chance to shoot the current loading a couple weeks ago...turned out fine! 32.5 Gr of Vitivouri N150 is what Nosler lists as "most accurate...

Congratulations! Wishing you many years of time and togetherness. CL

"Unicorn Doe" Verified doe w/ fawn- CL

Sh@@t - no wonder coyotes are still on my bucket list! With out the clues and magnification..... he lives to mouse another day! CL

I have a 4-12 AO Xortex on a 22Mag "Plinking" rifle. Thats more than I would want for any serious hunting rifle. I have done all my hunting on the prairie's of SD and MN. Of all the rifles I've used or seen hunted with the vast majority in those places were fixed 6x or 4x. Most of my...

For the 250-3000 Savage: Remington Case CCI 200 primer Hogdon H380 powder Hornady 75 gr. V-Max bullet Going with the conservative 53,000 PSI and a 22in barrel? CL

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
