    Blow gun hunting

    That would be an adventure, no doubt. I also think, any way one can learn another ways to put food on the table, is not only interesting but a good as well. Any new skill of such can only be a benefit in my mind. I look forward to hearing more of her experience, and wish her the best! I don't...

    .338-06 vs .35 Whelen vs heavy .30-06

    Can't go wrong with the .30-06 imo, but you make a case (no pun intended) for any ot the other two. The coming of the ABLR would favor the .30-06 more I think, with the available capacity. The 210gr. ought to penetrate like crazy at extended range, and leave two holes no matter what. But I do...

    Big Bore loading for Lori

    Some reason I missed you started out with RL-7 Scotty,, mind doesn't always focus as of late I guess. But looks good anywhere above that 41 gr. charge, as you say.

    Washington State Senate bill 5737

    No doubt. I don't know why they haven't figured out, what is going on the recent years is a social problem. Guns were never locked up when I was growing up, but we were taught early on, not to touch until we were told we could, when old enough. And to respect them (both the guns and parents...

    Big Bore loading for Lori

    Upon further review Scotty, I would go 1800 fps with the PT's, still keeping recoil down somewhat for her, if you have enough for testing and the hunt. Just guessing the BC of .200 on them, they should have a PBR of 170/7", is only 9' low at 200. And enough energy with a .429 250 gr. to get the...

    7mm Mauser 160 PT and RL19

    Not sure why I passed over this thread. All I could add, is to say it's a grand old round, that don't seem to get much fan fare here in the US. But I totally agree with Fotis here. I bet you do play with the ABLR Scotty, soon as they come available. I know I will be :!:

    Big Bore loading for Lori

    How much range would you plan on with the .444 Scotty? Also do you happen to know what the min. terminal velocity is of the PT's. If were me, I would use the slower powders to keep the impulse down, the lighter PT at at 16-1700 to help with felt recoil., and just plan on hunting within effective...

    Load Development -- Seating Depth First?

    Same here, and would agree. See how it goes anyhow, when I start load work with the ABLR.

    Interesting... Lion? Poacher?

    Seems highly suspect imo. Wolves in a large pack will kill more than they eat. How far apart were the carcasses Guy? Even the wolf kills would be spread out somewhat, I wowuld think. Spree kills by poachers is a good possiblity

    Magpul threatens to leave

    No doubt about that, I agree with all Mike. I also agree Paul, but it goes further. They want to destroy the Constitution all together. Then rewrite, it to suit their wants. All totally destoying the Traditional American way of lfe as we know/knew it. Their wants, is nothing more than total...

    Whelen owners motto?

    My fault for not catching this earlier Cheyenne. I'm not sure exactly on what and why you feel the need to apologize. I just haven't seen anything you stated that warrents an apology. It most often seems when threads go astray, it is in a joking or facetious nature, other's go off track in...

    Whelen owners motto?

    Yep, and if I could afford it, I would have one of everything. I still wouldn't mind the .35 Whelen myself, even though it would add to the overlapping I have already. I think it is a great round within it's own attribute's. I seriously would look at a good deal on one, if funds permited at the...

    Good going Paul! I hoped your efforts turn at least a few around to reality, common sense, and understanding of the truth.
