    Thirty Years Ago...

Not being a Veteran the closest I can relate is working with two parents, (a father and a mother) one of which is a Marine Veteran of Vietnam, whose sons were deployed and...

    Message on Ammo Shortage

    CL I believe that you are spot on...Think of the anti gun mega billionaires, who shall remain unnamed, out there who could purchase a controlling interest in this mega corporation affecting our sport and control/destroy our sport. The production could be redirected to some noncontroversial...

    a year with the .260

    Congratulations on great hunts.. Brings back memories of my Encore with an MGM .260 rifle barrel. It was a sweet package that never let me down. Wishing that I had not sold it now as it would have been perfect for hunting on Dan's farm in western New York.. Rol

    Optics for a S&W Model 29 .44 magnum

    The Trijicon SRO is a beautiful thing. There is a hallow around the dot at higher intensities and I find the lower range seems more precise. It takes a little getting used to the dot wandering out of the optic if you are not directly behind the pistol. Two factory loads, 240 grain Winchester...

    What should I do?

    Welcome to the forum, you are faced with no bad choice. If significant temperature varitaon is not a concern the IMR 4350 would be a proven load.
