    Amateur Hour

    Plans for this one have floated around the internet for a long time. Nothing fancy but it seems to work with a cheap torch. He had better plans for the torch holder but never got it finished so I made one with a scrap of plywood.....ugly but functional.

    Amateur Hour

    All, My FIL started building one of the DIY brass annealers in 2021. Unfortunately he passed before it was finished so my son and I finished it up. Today was the first time using it since I hadn't finished the load development with my 300 RSAUM. Thought a rainy day would be a good...

    Hawaii... anyone?

    Never hunted there but Axis deer is good eating. Almost like a mix between whitetail and elk.

    Sabot Sleeves

    Crush rib sabots normally load easier. You can order all kinds of sabots directly from MMP if you know your barrel diameter.

    44 mag

    I mostly shoot 240 grain and heavier but almost always use 2400 for hunting loads. Even though I wear hearing protection, it seems to have less muzzle blast than H110/W296. I also use it in .357 mag hunting loads for the same reason.

    Fireforming Update- Ruger 375 brass

    Same reason I'm holding onto my 300 SAUM brass like it's gold......somtimes the logistic tail doesn't support what they deveoped. Hopefully they'll do a run so people can stock up.

    10mm Auto 180gr powder?

    Longshot for highest velocity, but I think I get better accuracy with blue dot and HS-7 (if you have it)

    Preferred handgun hunting bullet?

    For .357 I use MP Mold 359-640 that weighs right at 160 grains. For the 10mm I use MP 401-200 mold (Not sure on the number) that weighs 186 grains. The 44 uses a MP 432-256 SWC HP mold that weighs around 260 grains. All are cast with 50% pure and 50% wheelweight lead with around 2% tin. If I...

    .30-06 165 grain Nosler Accubond

    I've used Accubonds in .308 (125gr), 30-06 (150gr), 6.8 (100gr) and 243 (90gr) with shots from in your face to about 250yds. Everything I shot with them except one deer have died promptly with excellent bullet performance. The one deer was never recovered so not really sure what happened in...

    Alliant Powders...Eye Watering

    As my dad used to sayin reference to gas prices, "they can't drink it". Buy only what you must have and leave the extra on the shelves at the store. Once inventory starts to get excessive prices will drop. As long as people pay the prices, they prices will stay high.

    Now that Varget is $60....

    I'm still burning W748 with Nosler 125 grain AB seconds. Should be good to go since I have an 8 lb jug.
