I would say prob 223 would be best- even if I dont own one since I have a hornet and 22-250. If I was going to get a plinking/varmit gun that was cheaper to reload that would be it-brass n bullets are easy to get. right now most places have 420 round boxes of Fed/lc ammo for around $160.00 that...
You just opened yourself for a lot of remarks- everyone has their favorites- a lot of us like the odd balls 6.5's and 35 calibers. More info is needed like; if you hunt and if so what kind of game, R you target shooting for tiny groups, what action of rifles you prefer, what will your typical...
I tried rl25, and never got good groups- I'm using ramshot magnum and its ok-I have just heard retumbo mentioned on here with the 264 before and thought I might pick up some and try it.
The Hornady manual has a great section on loads just for the Garand. I use Varget and Biggame powders in my 4 m1's- All cmp guns- yep IHC, WRA, HRA and SA. One of each manufacture. WRA and SA are 1944 and '45. the HRA & IHC are 53 and 54. Only the WRA doesn"t have the correct barrel. I have 2...

I also have an 4x m7 post Crosshair leupold. German post #2. I think its the best reticule out there. I had premier reticle build me a leupold 2-7 VX2 before they quit modifing Leupold Scopes. I wish Leupold offered that reticle. I would send all my leupolds in and have them all changed to it...
Hi-Also in OR so I now what your taking about- I like the Shockeys gold powder and #11 mag cap. I use the TC grease so it doesnt seize up the plug or nipple. Anyway I hope this helps a little. I clean my rifle usually after each time I take it to the range or after I shoot it in the field. I...
Well hopefully I posted picture right. Anyway here is the 3x3 blacktail I took the last day I was able to hunt the Muzzleloader hunt I had. I chased bucks around everyday I hunted. Either I spotted them way off and they slipped away or I jumped them and they took off to fast. I will admit I...
just wondering if there is a peep sight available for my tradition evolution. Took a nice 3pt Blacktail (6pt eastern count) on the 1st here in S. OR. Its great being able to hunt in November, I have seen so many bucks, couldn't get close enough to the really big ones and will admit I missed a...
