    2025 I finally drew whitehorse antelope tag

    Good luck Rogue. I was going to take a .264 Win Mag this year if I drew for antelope. I struck out both in Oregon and Wyoming. Good hunting!

    What's it cost these days to rebarrel a rifle?

    Depends on the cost of the barrel and who you have twist it on. My guy out of Bend runs between 650-750 to buy a Douglas barrel, thread, chamber and contour, crown and glassbed into the stock (and blue if necessary). That .25 Creed in a Rem 722 should be a fairly straightforward proposition!

    New LH Bansner CF stock Model 70 in 308 Norma Magnum

    I have always wondered why Winchester didn’t go the .308 Norma Mag/.30-338 route with their .300 Win Mag cartridge design. A 180 grain bullet at 2950-3000 fps is perfectly possible therein. I have always thought about taking a Springfield ‘03 or Enfield 1917 sporter and having it reamed out to...

    Firing .38’s in a .357 Magnum

    Thanks all for weighing in. I too have done this with zero issues but I also clean my handguns frequently!

    Firing .38’s in a .357 Magnum

    Where are you all at on this apparently hot-button issue? I have heard much scuttlebutt lately decrying the firing of .38 ammunition (especially in revolvers) chambered in .357 Magnum. The fly in the proverbial ointment being that prolonged application will result in gas erosion in the cylinder...

    John Taffin Perfect Packin' Pistol Available

    My favorite .357 Bisley Blackhawk has the 7.5” barrel, unfluted and engraved cylinder, and factory Ruger grips. It shoots AMAZINGLY with both .38 and .357 loads (factory and handloaded). I have yet to kill anything besides ground squirrels and rattlesnakes with it but hopefully that will change...

    Going to run the big 8 again.

    I killed my first few elk with an 8mm Rem Mag in a standard as issued Remington 700 BDL. Like Don said, its a great cartridge but bullets were exceedingly difficult to acquire. We shot the 220 grain Sierra Gamekings.

    .22 ammo..... need a thought or two

    CCI Standard Velocity shoots AMAZINGLY in my Model 52 Winchester. I use the CCI High Velocity 40 grain roundnose in my High Standard Sport King, it is accurate and functions well.

    30 Nosler Surprise

    Never have used them but have heard VERY good things. One guy with a .30-06, the other with a .300 WSM, both using that same 165 grain TBT.

    Do you wear latex gloves while reloading?

    With brand new brass, I will wear cotton gloves to keep from staining them with bullet lube greasy fingerprints. Then I was my hands with soap and water afterwards like always. Like others have said, the latex (or vinyl, nitrile, etc.) gloves get rather sweaty if worn for a long time.

    Audio to Text Software

    Does anyone have any experience with audio to text transcription technology? I would like to buy or download software that enables me to take voice notes and transcribe them verbatim to a word document. I would also like to be able to write via speaking into a microphone on my computer. Thanks...
