I used base cabinets and put counter top on them. Before I put the counter top down I put a sheet of, whatever thickness filled the lip on the front of the countertop, particle board for more rigidity. I have my Rockchucker and RCBS 2000 progressive mounted in the opening between the cabinets...
A couple years ago I missed an opportunity on a nice whitetail here in WY same circumstances. When I saw him he was still on the other side of the fence but half the does he was will were on the public side. If I had been 10 minutes later he would have likely been on the public land.
Count me in the no AI for reloading camp. I have a hard enough time using data from the internet even when I know its from good sources, Nosler, Hodgdon, etc. While I like the convenience of comparing loads and looking things up on the web, especially at work. When I set down to figure out...
I know this is from an old post but I will throw out there that a sample size of 3 really isn't even a sample. Shoot 10 rounds letting the barrel cool between shots then see what the data says. Odds are this is just the normal distribution of both shot location and velocity.

.264 was the first for antelope, deer and elk and has the most elk.
6.5-06 has killed the most animals, all deer and antelope.
The simple solution to that is to run the hunt like they do in most western states, the permits are unlimited but the season closes once the mortality quota is reached. This eliminates the ability of those groups to decrease the harvest.
@wvbuckbuster I would not throw out powder over an episode like this. Sample sets of 4 in the statistics world are meaningless. in order to really evaluate this you need a minimum of 10 shots to see what both the group size and velocity are doing. I would highly recommend listening to the...
With only 4 shots recorded you really do not have enough data to be valid. I would shoot a 10 shot string, letting the barrel cool appropriately, and see what the data shows. 10 is the minimum I will use for any significant analysis, more is better but I think I have a decent look at the big...
First deer was shot with a .264 win magnum. We jumped what turned out to be the world's smallest antlered spike. When it bounced away one front leg was broke, we thought it was a doe at that point. Dad said shoot it and put it out of its misery. He said shoot it in the back of the head as it...
I have a whole shelf of old manuals, it is amazing how often you find yourself looking in one because a cartridge did not make the cut for the newer editions.
I like having the manuals to refer to without going online. I like having the online available if a have few minutes downtime at work I can look for new loads. I will say having the manuals is really valuable if you are not shooting current mainstream calibers. I shoot a 6mmTCU handgun, there...
