    .350 Legend Experience

    I would suggest that the 35 Rem is better. 2100-2200fps for a 220 grain Speer in the 35 Rem vs 2100 for a 180 grain Winchester Super-X for the 350 Legend. But, both are short-range rifles. The rainbow trajectory will get you either way.

    New Bee Rifle

    Nice! Dad bought the floor model Backcountry Ti in 300 Wby when we were there in October. He's going with Talley rings and a Swaro.

    Thoughts on 2x fired brass performance

    That sounds to me more like poor reloading practice by not checking their primer pocket sizes, or not paying attention to the pressure needed to prime them. One can find anecdotal evidence for almost anything in life. I clean with stainless, anneal, then lube with Imperial and size, usually...

    Where to buy Weatherby 300 Mag Nosler Partitions, 180 grain?

    Copper Creek and Hammer Bullets come to mind. I'm sure that Google could find others as well.

    Where to buy Weatherby 300 Mag Nosler Partitions, 180 grain?

    I see 3 options: 1. Work with a friend who reloads, if you have one, to develop 180 Partitions loads for your rifle. You buy components, they help assemble. 2. Contact one of the custom ammo companies about making ammunition for you. Not cheap, but you'll get your Partition load. 3. Try a...

    Specialized reloading dies

    The idea behind the body die is to bump the shoulder back your 0.002 and no more. You probably do this already with your full length die. The advantage of the bushing die or similar is that it works your neck much less than a standard full length die. You can get a full length die that has a...

    Might of made a dumb purchase.

    I've learned a lot with my Teslong since I purchased it. I found that one of my barrels is likely in need of replacement. Couldn't get it to shoot, and when I scoped it saw plenty of pitting despite it being stainless. Apparently one of the prior owners abused it quite a bit. As you, I'll try...

    Montana Elk Guide??

    Since NM is a random draw state, and the odds are so low (2-8%), you're better off putting in every year, and go when you get drawn. Do other states such as CO where you can go yearly, or WY where you can draw a general tag every 3-4 years. I live in MI and have driven to MT, WY, NM and CO for...

    I did as well, but that's when he was back here in Michigan. He's now in Idaho. The Cerakote website allows you to look for someone close to you: https://www.cerakote.com/find-applicator In the years since I had my rifles done, several locations have popped up within an hour. You may want to...

    Shotgun Advantages

    I'll side with HodgemanAK - it depends. I use autoloaders when doing a "put and take" pheasant hunt and I know there are a lot of birds, or a similar scenario when there will be action. I've used it as well for sporting clays but not in quite a while. O/Us get used for field birds, 12g for...
