    Who here has competed with firearms?

    Haha. In general I shun gun formal competitions. Bowling was stressful… took the fun out of bowling… didn’t want to take the fun out of shooting.. However, shotguns are another matter. Sporting clays is my favorite and 5 stand. Trap or skeet are fine. Our club in Freeland a michigan...

    Moose Attack on training dogsled team

    Cheyenne, I’m definitely a fan of yours! Your experience in the wilderness is incredibly valuable and reassuring or corrective for those of us down south that only occasionally visit the wilds! You’re also stroking my urge to buy yet another gun (358 win maybe a BLR or Sav 99) these last...

    Moose Attack on training dogsled team

    Just clarifying, a 380 auto colt pistol is basically a 9mm short, many 380autos are often sporting less and 100gn bullets. I would not carry a 380 auto for personal defense as heavy leather jackets and sweaters have stopped them. Typically the only have 5-7 rounds in them and a barrel that’s...

    Moose attacked on the trail. Musher had an unspecified smaller caliber, emptied it and did not stop the moose. Several dogs were killed and several more injured. She had a bar on her cell phone and an hour later help arrived with a more appropriate caliber...

    30 cal bullet for Brown Bear

    Son took a black back in Sept in Canada with the 220 Sierra prohunter…3” entrance, 8” exit. Bear was probably dead before it hit the ground. Took a fair amount of heart and lungs with it. It was loaded stoutly in a 300WSM. I’d have to look at notes, but believe it was around 2700fps. For sure...

    QL request for 45/70 Govt.

    I got out with starting loads on RL7, H4198, and IMR4198. Of the three H4198 was closest. I managed to get a roaring sinus infection and I’ve been laying low low. Antibiotics helping. Should be back to the load dev next week.

    Prvi Brass??

    I used it for Savage 303. It seemed fine. No issues with quality and the 303 shot great with it. Best IMO is more like Norma, Lapua.

    QL request for 45/70 Govt.

    Hi Dr. Mike, Question. On that quickload report for all reasonable powders.... i didn't see some i would have guessed would be there, and quite a few I wouldn't have expected. Do you think it's because of the 40000Cup? Examples of what i would have expected. Exterminator, H4198, IMR4198...

    Winchester WLM vs WLRM

    Somewhere around 60 grains I start using magnum primers.. even in things like 3006. Accidentally loaded them in a 3030 load development… :( the only bad thing that happens was I used 21 magnum primers and that’s the thing I have least.. redid the loads with standard and they seemed to actually...
