    unusual rifles, handguns, shotgun, combination

    I don't think so, I'm not saying it wouldn't have a limited market. I just don't think it would work well on multiples. When I used to a call with a partner one of us carried a shotgun the other the rifle. A lot of times we had multiple coyotes come in, best I ever did was take down three...

    Scotty.

    Old trigger or the new MOA trigger? I always found the old trigger pretty easy to work on, the new MOA isn't bad either. I just ordered a new spring for my MOA trigger from Ernie the Gunsmith rather than clip down my old one though.

    Faux Alpine Rifle

    I'm on a quest to lighten up my daughter's elk hunting gear, as two years ago I watched her quit on her first hunt. She just wan't mentally and physically ready for this hunt in my opinion, but at 13 years old her biggest problem was mental. She's now 15 and better prepared for it and she...

    What powder measure do you use?

    I looked for the Smart Reloader brand, but I didn't have much luck finding it. Frankford Arsenal is supposed to have a unit as well coming out this year. I check mine all the time as well with weights, so far it has been dead nuts accurate. I mainly use the scale more than anything, but the...

    What powder measure do you use?

    I bought the Chargemaster 1500, the $100 rebate made it too good to pass up. At Midway USA it was $219 after rebate, the CM lite was $185 after rebate.

    What powder measure do you use?

    The only time I ever had an issue with my digital scale was when I used it under fluorescent light sources. Once I switched to incandescent and then LED my issues with the digital scale disappeared. I also had a good friend who recently toured the Sierra facility and he said they had a wall...

    What powder measure do you use?

    I have an old RCBS Chargemaster that was manufactured by PACT. The scale finally quit after 12 years of use, I sent it into PACT last week to see if they could repair it. In the mean time I have an old RCBS 505 scale and my Uniflow powder measure. Using the old 505 and Uniflow made me realize...

    Starting Seating Depth ?'s

    Guy, I use the Berger method with max COAL that feeds from the magazine. I still find it works very well, I'm currently working with my 6X45 and 105 RDF bullets. The RDF touches the lands at 2.64" but feeds from the mag at 2.44", so I'll just start there and my next jump will be to .050" off...

    22-250 AI IN PROGESS

    I'm sure Chad Dixon knows more about it than I do. However, everything I've read on regular .22-250 from AI magazines is 5 round mags are flawless, but more than 7 in a 10 round and you can have issues. A lot of shooter use AI style magazines for 6XC with no issues both 5 &10 round capacities...

    22-250 AI IN PROGESS

    What were the major selling points on the Creedmoor vs. .22-250 AI? I know everything Creedmoor is all the rage, but I can't imagine much difference between them. I really can't see where one will show a significant advantage over the other.

    22-250 AI IN PROGESS

    That 90 grain LRAB should be plenty for most medium game. My daughter killed a few deer with the .223 when she started hunting, and my buddies boy took three deer this year with the .223 as well. Made me a believer in what a .224 caliber can do with the right bullet choice. You going to have...

    22-250 AI IN PROGESS

    Nope, but that's a cool looking rifle! What twist and barrel are you using, Game scout stock, who's bottom metal? If my state allowed .22 centerfire rifles for hunting, I'd twist some up pretty fast and play with them. Don't know if I'd play with the .22-250, the Valkyrie looks interesting...

    My buddy did that shoot 2 years ago with his 1903 sporter in .400 Whelen.

    A Relic

    I'm a sucker for cheap rifles! I purchased the 300 H&H for $100 originally and 1893 Spanish Mauser cost me $25 at a pawn shop. I didn't know what I was going to do with the 93, it had been badly butchered by somebody trying to sporterize it. I found a cheap stock and a cheap barrel and the...

    A Relic

    I only have two very different .300 rifles in my safe, the H&H and Savage. The .300 Savage is my favorite to shoot and carry, with 125 grain NBT it has had my daughter filling the freezer many times over. My .300 H&H is pretty mild since it's a Winchester 1917 rifle full 26" barrel in a heavy...

    Thanks Dewey! 55K is good, that's SAAMI maximum for it and the .223.

    QL request for 6X45 Rem?

    I have actually two requests, the first one was requested of me on another forum. The guy requesting it of me sent me a box of 105 grain RDF bullets. The other is I was given 500 115 grain DTAC bullets and the only rifle I have with a twist to handle them is my 6X45. My rifle still hasn't...
