    American Reloading 200gr .358 Soft Points

    I’ve seen here a few times that people have been looking for 200 grain .358 rifle bullets. American Reloading has them for a pretty fair price. In the past I ordered a few thousand steel core ball projectiles and they were quick to get them to me. Good prices as well. They are legitimate with...

    308 win and 168 gr bonded solid base bullet

    You’ll love the BSB bullet. It’s one heck of a tough bullet. I don’t think a 308 could make one come apart. I’d trust them in magnums too actually. I may get scolded for this but they are tougher than Accubonds or Partitions. They are designed and marketed differently but damn tough. They are...

    Sent the cashiers check out this morning via certified mail. The ball is rolling.

    Favourite 308-Based Cartridge?

    I’m going to have to go with the 308 Winchester itself as my favorite. It’s simple as to the why. My mom and dad gave me a Winchester Model 100 in 308 as my first deer rifle. Took my first and a few others with that rifle. It seems to always come up that the 308 Win is obsolete. There are deer...

    Didn’t think I’d Actually Win It

    I think I’ll start with IMR 4831, or Staball 6.5 under 130gr Partitions or E-Tips, if only because of the amount I have on hand. IMR4831 may not provide the absolute top velocities, but it’s within 50-75 fps of them. Also IMR4831 has been accurate whenever I’ve used it. I have a lot of faith in...

    Didn’t think I’d Actually Win It

    I may try finding some 85gr .277 E-Tips to try in it. It would probably be the “instant off switch” for Whitetails. Nosler shows 100 grain bullets at 3600+. I bet that little E-Tip would cook along at 3800+. See, what happens! I was fine. Minding my own, and BOOM……….i relapse! I’ve gone full on...

    Wow, your RL19 load is smokin! If I read it right. Thanks everyone for the advice, I’ll take it all to heart. I’m looking forward to putting it through its paces. Edit: It’s a very high velocity cartridge and I 100% plan on letting it breathe. That being said, accuracy will be what I’m looking...

    Didn’t think I’d Actually Win It

    I’ve got a set of Redding dies on the way for it. I suppose that made up my mind on whether to keep it. I sincerely appreciate your offer though. To be truthful I didn’t think I’d win the auction so it’s coming together after the fact. When the auction ended I looked at my wife and said “What...

    Didn’t think I’d Actually Win It

    I’ll give the bore a good scrubbing and let it tell me what it likes. I’ve got a good supply of powders I use for my 7mm RM’s that should get me started. As well as E-Tips and Partitions that I feed my 270 Win. The 130gr Partition would make a laser of a deer load in it. The E-Tips can handle...

    Didn’t think I’d Actually Win It

    No Magpro. I have IMR4831, IMR7828, RL22,23,25,26, Staball HD, Staball 6.5, and LRT. About the only thing I’ll need to track down is brass I think. I feel like theres powder I’m forgetting, I’ll have to look more closely.

    Didn’t think I’d Actually Win It

    That looks to be what happened I’m this case. I don’t think I’ve seen more than 3 Model 70’s go for less than this one did. I’ll wait and reserve the final opinion until it gets here, but I got it for what TC Venture’s are going for. Nothing wrong with a Venture mind you. I have one and love it...

    Didn’t think I’d Actually Win It

    Well, now what. Lol. Just won a Winchester Model 70 Featherweight in 270 WSM for a good price. It’s in nice shape with a Nikon Monarch scope. I thought it would kick off at a higher price. Never a dull moment.

    Marlin 1895 Barrel

    Doest anyone know of someone that will build and re-barrel a Remlin 45-70. Would want the stock contour maintained and have the sights duplicated as well. It shoots great but the rifling isn't up to my liking. A factory replacement barrel wouldn't be out of the question either. I'm just mapping...

    Bucket List - What’s your three?

    My bucket list is quite short but unfortunately not possible. That said, I’d like to have a Weatherby Mark V Deluxe chambered for 308 Winchester. A Winchester Model 100 in 284 Winchester, and a 1980’s Browning Citori in 20ga. with IC and Mod chokes. Maybe a few days in the Dakotas Pheasant...

    ****UPDATE*****anyone using these from Redding?

    I want to try them. It would make die setup painless when loading for multiple rifles in the same caliber.

    Don’t Cheap Out on rings and Bases

    Burris received the riflescope yesterday, and emailed me as such. Today they emailed back that it’s unrepairable and they are sending a new replacement. I’m not sure what makes it unrepairable, as it was new from box when put on the rifle. It doesn’t really make any difference though. This is...

    Taurus 1911 in .45 ACP

    A good 1911 will run more than a lifetime if you’ll put a drop of oil in a few spots every so often. Love it.
