Had a chance to shoot the rifle and load again. Real satisfied with this five shot group. The two "low- left and right" were called, operator error. If the remaining three were indicative of the load and what the rifle will do, well, we are happy. Pic turned clockwise again for some reason...

Was cleaning out some old stuff this weekend and found this. Sorry the photo quality isnt better. Debating whether to keep this or pass it along....I havent seen this many Nosler bullets in years...(yes thats a jab). Afraid some day we will have to say, "yes- years ago we had all these...

Perhaps- According to Boyds-Mine was a left over from a short run. The profile was cataloged as "Dakota Will". Aint them marketing types clever...? Dont know where they went with it but shortly after Savage offered a Laminate stock. I wonder if Savage went to Boyds for some proto-type ideas...

Will be watching! I went with a Boyds on my 93FV. A nice stock makes a real rifle out of them. I will be jealous- I went with the "ply-wood" version. CL

Cool photos again Guy. Like those swallow tails! (Dont know why they load upside down!?!?) CL

Cool rifles and outstanding reloading Fotis! That 7PRC must be the definition of a "sleeper" truck gun. Does it get in fights with your nice Weatherbys? CL

So....if I understood Ron Spomer correctly, the 350 Legend and I assume the other straight wall cartridges head space off the case mouth. Ron Maintains that this will limit its use as a reloadable cartridge. What am I missing? 45 ACP work that way dont they? Maybe I just missed the point...

87 Gr Speer Gold Dots, 117 Hornady at Fleet Farm. A bit obscure but the right diameter. CL

Thanks- makes my worn out old brass look more attractive, but will check it out. CL

Thanks Jim! gives me a ball park. Little better than I figured. Didnt see any pressure signs at 40 Gr. But will go back and look at brass again. Thanks TH

Pretty good price. If I had it, and needed one.... CL

Thanks all. It was/is my Mom's rifle. No idea really when all the work happened. Dad picked it up at the pawn shop back in the early 60's. It had the vent rib and fold down peep on it back then. I found the scope back in the early 80's. Dad found a gentleman that my uncle opinioned "had...

A bunch of Hunter at Cabela's in Rogers Mn today. CL

Well, that sure looks better than my group at 100yds yesterday! fun is right but I think your zero is about a 1/2 inch left! :D. Pretty rifle too! CL

Can anyone run the numbers on this load for me please? Im curios to see what this looks like: 6.5 mm Jap Norma cases 100 Gr Sierra HP 40 Gr. IMR 4064 CCI 200 Large Rifle BTW- info on the box for the original Norma 139 Gr soft point shows about 400 FPS slower than a similar load for the 6.5...

I would never talk you out of a .25 Cal, or a seven Mag for that matter. BUT.... Those you can find on the rack fairly often. So.... a 450 or a 458 sounds good. How many times do you use a rifle beyong 250 - 300 yds any way? Those big Cals can do that too. IDK, always a soft spot for a pretty...

:) :)

That is an awful pretty rifle Bruce, and a classic set up. Looks good to me. CL

Oh, that was fun to see! Dad was able to go "modern" and bought the Herters single stage back in '64. Still have his oriignal Speer manual and use the press for all reloading. Thanks for posting! CL

THAT! Shoot the '06 from a variety of positions and ranges and you will be way further ahead than any new rifle can get you IMHO. FWIW Ive never shot an Antelope at more than 300 yards. I would think your '06 would be a "hold on the hair" proposition at that range, in all but he most...
