Why is there even a "politics" section? IMO, have the Nosler Admins delete it. If people want to talk politics, the go to Facebook or some other forum for that.

Reading this thread, I'm beginning to wonder if the VX3 scope on my 338RUM (kicks like a mule) was the reason for my miss on a very close bull elk in 2022 and not me. I no longer felt comfortable with my 250AB load I worked up many years ago (it was a hot load), so I worked up a new 250AB load...

While not reloading oriented, Santa brought the wife and I a Jackery 1000 Plus solar generator with 2 100W bi-facial solar panels. We have stopped using propane lanterns and minimizing battery powered lanterns to rechargeable lanterns during our fall hunt. She uses a C-PAP and the small power...

FWIW, I have a 30-06 Weatherby Vanguard Sporter that I have a 180AB load worked for it. As for OAL, I was able to get out 3.39" and still function in the magazine. So first and foremost, find out how far out you can go and still have it function in the magazine. Then start working on a load...

You made me look for when I joined. WOW, May 12, 2005. It's been 19 years. Although I'm not as active as I once was, I still check the "New Posts" almost every day.

Here's the picture of the rifle Clearwater is looking at.

Well, it's looking like I'll be having tag soup again this year for elk and deer. Since 10 Oct, I have only seen bucks on private property that I don't have permission to access. I've been pack my 7mmRUM loaded with 150 ETs. :(

To bad you have to take out a loan to get 8lb jugs now.

I've been using the Leupold std base/ring set on all of my rifles, from 204 Ruger up to my 338WM, including my 300RUM. Now with my 338RUM, I tried the std base/rings and it destroyed the rear mount & ring within 4 shots. I found some 30mm Talley 2pc ring/base on sale. When I got my 375RUM, it...

I put the wife and I in for the Idaho unit 69 controled hunt regular antlered deer hunt this spring. As usual, not selected. I searched the IDFG website to find what tags were left over from prople not buying their tags by 1 Aug. There was one tag available for this hunt in the second chance...

I use Leupold rings and bases. See if they make an offset front mount. I had to go get on for my wife's Savage 110 ultralite to get the scope back enough to get the proper view through the scope.

When I find a bullet/powder load that works for me, I don't bother trying any other recipes. Especially now that components are hard to fine and I don't want to burn through what I do have.

I don't have any I dread loading for, but the one thing I don't like doing for any of them is preparing new brass. Long tedious process, lube, F/L size, trim all to a specific size then clean and put away.

That would be my 270 WSM and 300 RUM
