I see that SPS has 49 boxes of blemished, 180, 30cal Ballistic Tips for sale $25 ea.

For those in the NW, Bi-Mart has a supply of some ammo. My local store had bricks of 500 for $35 which is bad , but better than what I have been seeing. They also had some rifle ammo and a fair amount of pistols on the display. Last night I was able to order bullets for my MZ and powder. I...

I drew hunt number 2512 which includes 336, 340, 342, 346. Any hints ? I cataloged my stuff today, and found 10 year old Triple 7, three pounds of double F black powder, Power belt bullets, Barnes Bullets, and TC Hunter cast bullets. Bullet weights varied from 245 to 350 gr. I have lots...

Dan --I have a traditional TC, Hawken 50 cal. As I was digging through my stuff, I found various bullets, (some i cast), most with sabot's , 3 or 4 different powders and caps, and of course, bullet lube cleaner and the like. I am thinking that my loads were 90 g , FFG with a mystery bullet...

I drew a MZ tag in central Washington this year. It's been years since I shot and hunted with one. So I will be learning again. Hopefully I will not make the same mistakes of the past. A few questions will be following in the coming weeks.

He was "beautiful" perfect coloring and form.. The AB has worked for me now on several elk, but the Partition worked great for decades. Again congratulations.

A 3/4 inch slice from an aluminum can could also work for you. Once confirmed a drop or two of super glue will hold it in place.

I have primers that I cannot remember where, when or how I got them. I would not use them for hunting, or in your case, (long range competition) but primers are amazing. I have been loading since the late 50"s and only a "very few "misfires. And even those were a result it something I did, not...

I saw my first bear of the year, a couple of days ago while on my morning hike. I have also seen a couple of fawns, and some very young Turkeys. Its still pretty green but natural water sources are drying up in our area. Slightly earlier than normal, and temperatures have been much cooler...

I am a firm believer in that if it works "don't touch it". You have some great loads there, don't waste money on trying to develop better. Great job

I have been loading the 300 WM for years. My most accurate load is 70 grains of H-4350 behind 180 Sierra flatbase. Best 3 shot group at 100 yards has been .131. For hunting i use the 180 Partition with a few more grains. You can get more velocity with other powders, but I haven't had any...

Your Partition load is great, that one should work for just about anything.

CL- my father was the youngest of his family and outlived them all, as well as numerous friends. As you are experiencing he missed them greatly, he thought for years that he had created some great misdeed and was being punished. We cannot control our destiny, or the lives of others, nor can we...

Yes you are, and you already have great advice. Will be waiting to see how your next groups go.

I do it the hard way, I sit at the kitchen window and watch the lawn behind my house. Usually drinking a glass or two of diet coke. I have my trusty shotgun beside me, loaded and ready to go. As I see them coming into range, I check the focus on my cell phone while waiting patiently. It can...

JD, that is an absolutely outstanding bird, a wonderful, beautiful bird, congratulations.

I have a similar problem, but I only buy them when they are reasonably priced. I also do trades, it makes the habit easier to justify.

Elk in October, November, and perhaps late November and early December. I have no general hunts planned, my hunts depend upon the draw.

'[salmonchaser"]Actually Bill that photo disceiving. There is still quite a bit of snow down to about 3600 feet. Still snow just a little ways out of Summerville'. Dad and i killed two first day cows off/on the county road just a little south of elgin, not far from there. Loaded them whole, in...

Not as much snow as I expected, a very nice picture.
