    Bullet shelf

    Yikes, it sure left a mess. Sorry to hear that shelf did not hold up to all that weight. Your wood shelf sure looks solid. I had a shelf that I built a ways back when I started reloading, started seeing that shelf buckle and warp under that weight over time, but I still keep buying lead, so I...

    .22 Match with the Vudoo

    Come ups was spot on out to 200 yards, set velocity at an average of 1085 fps on the Kestrel. Love it. Just have not done past 200 with the .22 yet. Should be able to have enough elevation with the 30 MOA rail and the ATACR out to 400 -500. A little wind at that distance will ruin your day.

    Poor Quality Control

    I wonder if any of the Nosler staff inspected and make sure the rounds passed compliance before boxing them.

    7mm 175gr Eld-X 18 in 1-8 twist barrel

    I just picked one of the top powders for the 7mm Magnum and used RL22 to get an idea on velocity. the only con is the 18 inch barrel length which brings the speed down close to 7mm-08 speeds with 24-26 inch barrels. Cartridge : 7 mm Rem. Mag.(SAAMI) Bullet : .284, 175...

    16 hour brisket cook

    Won't matter if its ribs or brisket, meat is meat. ;) I love ribs as well, you reminded me that I have some batches of short ribs from that black angus steer from last year in the freezer, that just refreshed my memory. I'll smoke them just like baby backs soon.

    Load data 6.5 creedmore with vihtavuori n555 and 140 nosler cc

    I have used similar bullet weights in my Creedmoor, and have not reached max velocity as stated in the manuals at times, it depends on case capacity and chamber dimensions. Would you know the H20 water capacity on your fired cases? Perhaps you can give us the H20 case capacity, exact velocity...

    Putting Things in Perspective

    Not only economical, but easy not to lose brass, just dump in a container, i would always lose some brass using my automatics. I just need to build a brass catcher. And pistol powder goes a long way.

    anyone have a secret brisket seasoning recipe?

    Thinking to start using my own home made seasonings from scratch for now on when I smoke meats in the Traeger. I am smoking a 18 pound brisket tomorrow evening throughout the night until around noon the following day. Possibly a 15 to 17 hour cook or longer, depending on conditions and stall...

    Thinking to retire my P-35 chronograph

    Found a case at Harbor Freight for $12.99, it comes with the pre cut foam. I wanted to see if there was a size a little bigger to adapt the Kestrel as well, but they were too large for my liking. It has 4 pre cut foam layers, I could possibly use the lower precut foam to adapt the Kestrel and...
