    U.S. Optics

    Wow, if a scope performs in that weather, it is a good scope I have looked at some of these but they tend to be out of my price range. Thanks Guy

    Trying to thin the powder herd

    My target time and reloading test times are during the spring, summer, and early fall where temperatures can be as high as 101 but most all these reloads are for Colorado fall hunting where the temps are often down in the teens or lower for the better part of the early mornings so I have drank...

    Minox ZA5 4-20x50 SF with BDC Reticle

    This is just a preliminary review. Once I mount it on my new rilfe (not yet purchased - 30 days), I will write up an official product review. Here is the quick skinny. Because I do not know if it is politically correct on this site to list a Vendor's site, especially where the vendor's site is...

    MINOX?

    I am afraid to ask her. Scotty is right!! I am new on this side of things. I might not be able to handle the truth. :) ...but getting her own rifle didn't hurt. :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

    what scope for 378 WBY?

    I just looked up the recoil energy of that rifle Fotis. That is some pretty serious recoil. A lot more than my "lil" 338 win mag! This is a good thought though things can get expensive testing this stuff out. --> "Maybe a 30mm scope would help with flexure as well because it is more rigid has...

    what scope for 378 WBY?

    IdahoCTD, I had also heard that as well. So again I tested this possible issue with alot of different caliber rifles and still test as I load for different rifles. After I work the loads up, I just shoot off a bag. I literally see no POI difference. I also have the rifle owner's test after and...

    what scope for 378 WBY?

    I had heard of such experiences so that I called Caldwell on this a few years ago. I spoke for almost 30 minutes with the tech and with a sales person. They officially stated they do not believe their product is the cause of such failures. (of course no one would offically admit such :wink: )...

    MINOX?

    I just purchased a Minox and pretty excited. :grin: I will be able to give an initial comparison of the Minox Z5 4-20x50 BDC and Vortex Viper 4-16x50 HS BDC this weekend. I own two of the Viper HS scopes and now this Minox. :mrgreen:

    Case Fill

    Yup, relying on the StdDev and high confidence levels, 200 might be a ball park number. :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

    Case Fill

    Oldtrader3, I see you took "just a little bit of statistics" :wink: Yeah, I know alot of people jump on the StdDev train but I agree with your comments on the topic. I too know the voodoo math, as one of my friends use to call it, and unless I am going to at the least perform decent...

    Lee hand press

    I use the Lee Hand Press on a continuous and consistent basis. For me it is the finishing touch for getting my exact seating depth at the range. I personally love this little tool and seating is pretty dog gone concentric too. :grin: I still need a few trips back and forth to the range...

    Reloading Equipment.

    One can buy powder at Wal-Mart? ..or did I just read that wrong and have just not had enough coffee this morning. :roll:

    Fliers to the right

    I am just a grasshopper compared to some of the rockets scientists here but here is my thought from my own personal experience. If you are doing everything right from case prep to powder charge and seating depth adjustments primer testing to case and bullet concentricity to shooting correctly...

    30-06 180gr or 165 gr

    I' m sold per the experts here! :mrgreen: I am going to get 5 boxes of the 30-180 Partition (Over-Run) loads. Our new hunting camp buddy will apreciate your expert experience and input on them. For my backup rifle this year's hunt I am going to take my wife's 7mm-08. (Yes she gave me her...

    30-06 180gr or 165 gr

    I will be reloading again this Elk season for a Remington 700 30-06. Shots are going to be most likely only 350 yards or less. After looking at some stats, I am not sure if I should go with the 180 gr or 165 gr Partitions. From what I have recently read, it looks like the 165 gr Partition...

    Vogelzang Standard Barrel Wood Stove Kit

    I had called a vendor for these kits and their claim was that it would get too hot next to tent material and also --> mobile homes, pre fab homes, etc. ???? So I called Vogelzang directly and here is what I got. "We have this all over our site not to place this in mobile home, tents etc.." So...
