    Shoulder Bump for New 300 WSM Nosler Custom Brass

    SAAMI calls out headspace on 300wsm at 1.7260-1.7360: I have no idea what your tool measures, I don’t own one either. Seems silly to sell something to measure headspace with that doesn’t measure headspace[emoji3]. 1.730 is within range according to SAAMI. Bumping your new cases back a little...

    Best 243 bullet for deer?

    Whitetail deer are small critters and a .243 is a fast bullet. I would sacrifice “bang-flop” for saving some meat. We prefer to head shoot our little Sitka black tail. Anything else does too much meat damage. Shoot whichever bullet is the most accurate.

    poor/ crappy UPS handling

    I’ve had Midway shipments of bullets that consists of the very dense bullet box clacking around in a big ol’ flat rate box with one sheet of bubble wrap. One time the product busted clear out and I got an empty shipping box. They did replace it without hassle so that was nice. You’d think...

    muzzle brakes and recoil reduction question

    They work well in what would be considered an overbore cartridge. Usually with anything “magnum” on the end of it. In my experience the juice isn’t worth the squeeze on standard cartridges. I have a braked 7-08 and the concussion bothers a young or inexperienced shooter more than the recoil...

    Backup beam scale

    I have an old RCBS that’s made by Ohaus and back it up with another RCBS that’s a little newer and cheaper. I’ve never used an electronic one but I would if that’s what I had.

    maple stocked rifles

    Maple is more stable than walnut. I personally don’t like the look of it for a stock but it’s only personal preference. It’s better wood.

    Bullet jump?

    Good info here. The throat also begins to erode starting with fired round #1. Some go quicker than others, depending on how much powder it’s burning in relationship to the bore diameter.

    Biden's mandate.

    Hey I voted for him too. Twice. But he cost himself, and us, the election because he just couldn’t shut up. I really hope he learns to keep quiet or he will cost us 2024 as well. I’m starting to wonder if he doesn’t work for the DNC (there’s a good conspiracy theory[emoji3]).

    It’s interesting that “The Sun” would be sensationalizing this now considering R1 happened in March. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.preven ... d-variant/ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Gulf of Mexico fishing

    Figured it was time to update this one. Got back to San Diego yesterday, leaving to go back to Alaska today. “Epic” is a word that gets overused today, but my vocabulary isn’t advanced enough to use another word. 20 anglers, around 105 bluefin tuna, many over 100#, at least 10 over 200#...

    Biden's mandate.

    Oh I’m wrong a lot of times no surprise there. I agree with you 100% on this one. No one should be forced to take it. That’s plain wrong. If folks want to quit their jobs over it that’s their prerogative. I suspect many of them will be financially obliged to come back, under duress, and...

    Biden's mandate.

    I have a friend, one I mentioned earlier who likes the information coming out of Israel also to support not getting the shot. Cases there are rising without question however rate of serious illness (before roll out) is significantly less, like 90%. So the young people with serious illness...

    Biden's mandate.

    I believe they have been doing mRNA trials for at least 20 years. Cancer and various viruses. Side effects have been limited to the first couple of weeks, much like any other vaccine. There are exceptions obviously like anything else. It doesn’t stay in your system and doesn’t alter anyone’s...
