    Small base die users finally a good stuck case remover!!

    A drill, tap, stack of washers, and a bolt have always worked for me. For me the problem of stuck cases has occured when I failed to use an adequate amount of sizing lube and once when I tried to salvage 338-06AI cases that were over expanded above the web. In both cases the drill and tap method...

    Done with Winter

    We have a 3000 acre wild fire burning near hear. The 80 degree weather and lack of humidity isn't helping them to get it fully contained. Right now rain or snow would be a blessing.

    Time for a new electric scale...

    I've liked my RCBS. When comparing it to my old balance beam and Pact they all read charges the same.

    12 gauge Turkey choke tube advice

    Midway lists the 3" at $60.99/box of 5, not counting tax and shipping. At over $12 a pop that is more than the turkey is worth!

    12 gauge Turkey choke tube advice

    Matching chokes and loads seems to be an art and not a science. How two smooth bore barrels from the same manufacturer can pattern differently with the same choke and loads is beyond my understanding. An example of this were my son's and my nephew's Remington 870 Express 12 ga. They required...

    Chiappa wildlands 45/70

    I'm thinking that if it going to be carried a lot in a SxS I would leave it with open sights or maybe a receiver sights.

    New Nosler 26 not grouping well

    I have picatinny rings (TPS) and bases on all but my Ruger #1s with the quarter ribs. Since going this way I have had fewer issues with loosing zero between trips to the range and seasons. The exception is an old Vari-XII with friction adjustments that I should retire. I also have a Weaver T36...

    Never owned a 7mm Mag - not sure I will

    I've owned a 7mm Rem Mag since 1966 and it was my primary rifle for many years. At that time I didn't know much about Ackley Improved cartridges and wasn't into forming brass. Had I been I think the 280AI would have been an excellent choice. I own two 280s, a Ruger #1B and a 700 Rem Mountain...
