Now your killing me. The perfect up land bird gun. Dad had one in 12ga that I would sneak out of the house to hunt with till he caught me coming home with a limit of birds and rabbits. After being scolded I told him but Dad I can't miss when I use it, he told me if I put one scratch on it he...

Yeah gizzards are tasty but can be tuff and chewy, Oysters are best served fresh, Raw, steamed or fried. Love some Oyster stew also. Man I'm glad fall is here so I can get some fresh tonged Oysters to eat, sea sides are the best since they have a good salty flavor. Got some that were from the...

I all ways look at it this way, the more surface the seating stem can contact the less likely the bullet will seat canted or crooked in the case neck. If the bullet is started crooked in the beginning it deform the case neck and case mouth. See this in straight walled cases where it is more...

Sure do love some Gumbo and that sounds and looks great, I can almost taste it. Love Jambalaya also. Every now and then I can get the wife to whip some of either up but she likes to throw everything in a pot and cook it all at the same time so getting her to take her time and do it right I have...

Nice little walking rifle. If it was in .22 Hornet I maybe could have been a player. The one rifle I sold that I wish I had back was a Winchester M37 in .22 Hornet.

Very nice Buddy. Maybe one day I'll get to come out for a visit.

The only volume loading I do is pistol loading and I use a Dillon progressive press. I use the scale to set the powder measure and occasionally to check my powder measure. For rifle I use the scale to measure each powder charge. My scale is a RCBS 10-10 made by Ohaus. Reloading is a relaxing...

Man am I out of step with everyone here, I still hand dip and don't use a trickler. I have a trickler but don't like it. My beam scale a RCBS 10-10 has served me well over the years though I did have the handle on the pan break off this year but still use it with the handle tab laying on the pan...

I didn't take a compass with me when I hunted Elk in Montana but I did have a watch with hands on it and used the face as a compass watching the sun travel across the sky and knowing where and the time the sun rose and set. Water . fire starter kit and dry socks. I don't go anywhere without a...

Gee Doc you always know I'm here to assist you when I can.;)

Gee Doc if you don't have the time send it to me and I will break it in for you and send you the results of my test.;)

Yep that was it. They would have a barrel maker fit a false muzzle on the barrel before cutting the rifling and then rifle the barrel with the false muzzle attached. The rifle would be loaded with a cartridge and no bullet a paper patched bullet would be loaded in the muzzle and seated on the...

You'll love the Whelen, what brand rifle did you get? I sent off a M70 Push Control Feed 30-06 to J.E.S and had it reamed and rifled chambered in 35 Whelen AI and that thing is unbelievable. I actually almost split a white tail doe in half with a 225gr Partition trying for a rear spine shot/...

That's a cool system. Might something to keep hand in case the crap hits the fan and you need to treat your drinking water. I carried a filter straw with me when I hunted in Montana just in case I got somewhere I didn't know how to get back to the truck. I also carried bottle water everywhere I...

Don sorry for the loss of your Friend. As we get older it seems our older buddies and friends are getting less and less. Find and making new friends can sometimes be difficult due to age and interest. I still regret missing your call when you and your wife visited MD.

Dirt from decapping a case on a progressive reloading press can leave a flake of carbon on top of the primer seating pin and will dent the primers when you seat a primer in the case. I see it all the time when loading pistol ammo on my Dillon 450 progressive press. I clean my press and the...

Amen Brother. Fire and water have no mercy on anyone or anything. Plus Fire is a live breathing ravenous eater and destroys everything.

Any time Dan. I like to went crazy trying to figure out why a new rifle wouldn't shoot consistently when I got my Hawkeye. Burnt a lot of powder and primers trying to figure it out.

Dang there goes my Bullseye powder load for my .45acp out the window. Between Israel and Ukraine, they are eating up all the powder production and primers for the reloading consumer market.

If your going to hunt it I would take the wood stock off of it to preserve it should you want to sell it later on and find a Precision carbon fiber stock with a full metal bedding block in it like the Bell&Carlson Medalist and skim bed the action to it. You can thank me later when you find it...
