    Hornady Cam lock puller

    Have the RCBS Supreme… the camlock is difficult to use on it. Need to find an old rcbs or Lyman for pulling. Have lots of 270s made by someone else and since the boxes are not consistent,,, ie labeled Hornady Interlock 140, and I find a grand slam 150 in there… and the dude used 59 grains of...

    Straight walled rifle rounds

    Steve, I didn’t realize how close you are to me. I live in midland, so main hunting spots are midland/clare county and Manistee county… wife and son work in bay city… Agree. 3030 and 4570 should be ok in shotgun zone…

    I’m streaky. Right now a little discouraged as I had a couple loads that I thought I had dialed and I think my scope can’t handle the recoil. 45/70. Also a 270 that had a solid scope, but the dioptic adjustment wasn’t working, new Leupold 3hd doesn’t appear to hold zero… so need to get those...

    So helped a farmer with a 350 Legend. Loaded Barnes TSX HP 170gn over win 296. It was very good at killing game fast. Mike Avery - Michigan outdoor magazine, radio show/podcaster… took a 350 legend on a black bear hunt and it did the job just fine. Was actually a bit impressed. I’d rather...

    Reloader 17..

    prior owner of this model 70 300 WSM used H4831 and H4831SC with 150 partitions. I wasn’t particularly impressed with his ammo. Seemed twitchy to me… (easy to get variability or worse, hard to get consistentcy). I have heard good things about Win760 or H414 in 300 WSM with 180’s. The model 70...

    Proximal Tendon Tear ; Am I risking further damage?

    I tore mine weight lifting. Right arm. Didn’t seek treatment or diagnosis. I’ve had orthopedic surgeries in my knee and being in my mid 60’s, I don’t heal particularly fast. It’s been over a year now and my arm is getting back to full strength. Lefts feels better and is a little stronger...
