    All of the above listed bullets and other stuff, AND a steady supply of all Accubond bullets, as many of us shoot all year 'round, not just around hunting season. Thanks,

    Minimum chambering for defense?

    For my use its a Ruger 1911 Commander model with Speer Gold Dot 230GDHPs. If I or my family is threaten'd, I wish to respond in a positive manner.

    300 WSM and short barrels...

    There may be gun buyers out there that want a 22" .300 magnum rifle, and certain gun mfgs. offer them. When I looked into getting a .270 wsm, I found a factory rifle with a 22" tube. Got one with a 24" barrel.

    Unsettling frame of mind

    45-70 and 350 gr bullets

    Guy, Some 45 years ago it was Park policy to trap-out the trouble-maker bears and transplant them about 100 miles to the south. In 1975, I saw the hide of a Griz hanging in a Wyoming ranch shed, after meeting his untimely death nearby. And yes the old 45/70 still makes a comfortable buddy...

    Shot from my 1st generation stainless Marlin GG; 300 Hornady, 56.0/H322,F210M =1.25@ 100 yds. 350 NorthFork, 54.0/H322, F210M=2" @ 100 yds. 300 Nosler FP, 53.0/ RL7, F210M= 0.5" @ 100 yds. All were loaded into Starline cases. These loads produced more recoil than my old bones could...

    300 Ackley Magnum

    In the past I have tried Vortex rifle scopes on two different rifles. The .300 Win Mag ate up the first scope in less then 25 shots and it took the .338 about 10 shots. They were both returned to Vortex in exchange for a spotting-scope.

    Alaska, would you risk?

    Guy, I guess there are some things you could do to weather-proof your wood and blued-steel weapons. Hunting in Alaska can be a rough and tumble deal. In my case, it would have to be a plastic-stocked stainless weapon in the caliber to do the job. When that kind of $ and time is spent, I want no...
