I gave up on BTs a long time ago but after reading these posts it looks like I should give them another try.

Companies failure to listen is why I shoot Speer bullets in my .257 Ackley.

I agree with Bruce, a 20 ga pump with a skeet choke and #2 or 4s is just about perfect. My wife would be intimidated by it either.

I don't have as much of a trespassing problem anymore but encountered it many times in the past. The worst was the one that had his blind off of my property but clearcut shooting lanes 80-100 yards into my property. Another time I had a person or persons fell trees across my driveway to limit my...

Frustrating when a bird with a brain the size of a grape can out smart you.

My season ended here in Wisconsin yesterday with the turkeys getting another win. Before season they where in my yard and could hear them gobbling in the morning when I stepped out on the front porch. During season I had difficulty locating a tom and when I did, they were not responsive. Most...

I have a B-Square #16450 blued mount and rings that fits a Charles Daly Semi-Auto 12 still in the original package. It's free and I will pay the shipping to anywhere in lower 48 states.

I'm a casual user and own a Kimber Ultra Carry II .45ACP, Taurus PT1911 .45ACP, Browning Hi-Power 9mm, and a S&W Performance Center Shield 9mm. Hands down my favorite conceal carry piece is the Kimber. The Taurus and Hi-Power shoot well but are a little large for a conceal carry. The Shield 9mm...

Sorry Howie and Dan, But I still have the question.

I was always a fan of Winchester brass. It was fairly consistant, easy to prep, produced great results, and lasted. All that said I have not bought any new Winchester brass since it is being marketed in the red packaging. It almost sounds like Winchester has gone to selling seconds to the...

Dan, Do you sell your strikers?

If your a trap, skeet or sporting clays shooter you will usually prefer extractors so that you have your empty hulls remain in your O/U or SxS. This way you can retrieve your empties without chasing them. Leaving your empties on most ranges is frowned upon. Also, you now have them for reloading.

I've not shot one of these guns but it is fairly light so I'm guessing it is going to recoil some in a 12 gauge. My thoughs would be the 20 gauge and the .410 bore. You didn't say how much shooting your wife does, it could make a difference on the selection.

I have the second season hear in Wisconsin that starts later this week. By now we've already had the special Learn-To-Hunt, Youth Season, and are in the first regular season so the birds have already heard a lot of calling. My hope is to find a small pocket that hasn't been hunted yet. I was...

We have a Water Furnace geothermal heat pump with electric backup that was installed in 2012 to heat and cool our home. Heat and cooling is being pulled from the ground using four 200' closed loop wells. The other day we had a momentary power interrupt and the furnace went into auxilary mode...

I'll be watching for a range report in late july or August.

So what is a 25 Whelen Ackley Improved and how does it shoot? Sorry if this is highjacking the thread but can't get it out of my head.

It is interesting that Nosler's published reloading data for the 7mm-08 was done with a 26" barrel. While the published data for a 7x57 was with a 22" barrel. I don't own a 7mm-08 but I have a 7x57 Ruger 1AB with a 22" barrel. I've found the 22" barrel to be adaquate for Wisconsin White Tail but...

Reboring may be a possibility or finding a take off Browning Micro 6.5 Creedmoor barrel and rechambering.

Great to see .22 rimfires taken to the range for a day of fun. Almost all of us have one but far too many set in the safe never to see the light of day.
