    Weatherby or Tikka?

    Pop, Not arguing but I have a USA made Wby Mark V in 7mm Wby and it shoots wonderfully. I currently have it in pieces on my reload bench and consider it to be a quality firearm. I wouldn't trade it fer nuthin. In pieces just because I always want to see what makes 'em tick, have not had this...

    Carbon Steel verses Stainless Steel

    The main difference is that s.s. cools faster at the range on a day of hard shooting so not so much down time between group sessions. Other than that....don't matter to me. Corrosion-X makes my blued guns wear like stainless.

    THE PROOF ON PARTITON

    Jack O'connor, the man who made the 270 famous said, "IF the 280 Remington would have been handed to me before I got started with a 270 Winchester, I doubt I would have ever picked up a 270." 280 Rem's are the ultimate in my book. With a 150 gr Partition, there's not much that it won't put...

    RL22 Temp Sensitivity findings

    You are right Bruce. I experienced the same thing with RL22. But, not everybody lives in Texas. I use RL22 exclusively and it is the finest for me in several cartridges. I'm gonna stick with it.

    RL22 is my go-to powder for all of my loads. RL22 is definitely temperature sensitive. Very tight second place is IMR 7828.

    Chet, One of my hunting buddies told me last season: "You guys oughtta stick around and you'll see the biggest Whitetail in the state of Texas.........my girlfriend will be up here around dark." We still joke about it.

    Any Handgun Hunters?

    Rifleman, I purchased a 7-08 from Competitor back in 1987. The trigger was horrible. Al told me to send it back and he'd fix it. I never saw it again. 100's of phone calls, excuses and empty promises accomplished zero results. He still owes me $487.00.

    HELP WITH .300 WBY MAG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

    84.5 gr IMR 7828 with 180 Accubonds & CCI250's prints .500 groups from my Enocre barrel. Bullet seating works best for me when I seat the base of the bullet to the base of the case neck. Works in both my 300 Wby & 7 Wby. First targets on both were 3 shots fired and two holes on the paper. That...

    r-l 22 in 270 win

    RL22 was magic in my 270 Win & 270 Imp. 58 gr of RL22 yeilded 2800 in my 15" barrel. When it was rechambered the velocity rose to 2950. RL22 & IMR 7828 are nearly identical twins and the only two powders I use in my shootin irons. Awesome stuff.

    Any Handgun Hunters?

    Big Rifle Man, I suggest you beware of dealing with this guy, Al & his lying wife Dorothy. He cheated me out of $487 about 10 years ago. If I ever see him I am gonna skin him and mount the hide on my wall. I called the Attorney General's in his state but he told me it would cost me more than...

    What is the best case lube?

    R Flowers, The Imperial product was not created specifically for the reloading industry. It was originally intended for Machine Shop use in Millwright applications. Our hat's off to the Blue Collar man.
