Can't wait to see some hogs taken with this thing! My current go to Hog gun is a Christiansen AR10. I have a double mag on it and go for field clean out with that thing. Trying to keep the hogs out of our fields is a chore, especially when Dad puts soy beans in. I switch between a custom dial...

I consider myself a lever fanatic. I actually have a dedicated safe to nothing but old Winchester lever guns, it's a Winchester 44 and it can't hold anymore guns in it haha. My oldest one is a Model 1873 from the year 1888 in a 44-40 (44 WCF) all the way up to a 1894 made in 1997 in that safe...

I'm eyeing up something in the 7mm Backcountry. I've looked at the Weatherby 307 Alpine a couple times, the Begara Premier Divide, although they don't have it in 7BC yet. I've also been considering a varmint rifle, 22 Creedmoor or something along those lines. My kids can target practice with...

Thanks for this detail. I can get the short cut, everything else I can' t get around here. Oddly enough, my FIL has a 5lb jug of RL25 though. I think it's from the late 90's, but should be alright.

They earned it! I would have to go in the lotto though. I have a bucket list that I hope to start chipping away at in the years to come. I got married late, had kids late, and still have a 11 month old, 2 year old, 7 year old, and 8 year old living at home, freeloading. Once they get older...

I am not a vet or disabled.

He wants to use these Sierra 117g and is open to the Speer 100g only because he has 5 boxes of those. I live in Central Pa most of the time, and NE Texas the other time. I would love to take a trip out west in your neck of the woods and hunt some game I don't normally get chances at, the fly...

I wish I did too, I would love to see your process

I'm calling this set my JD Special. Pictures of how it shoot to come later... Weatherby Vanguard - 25-06 REM - 3x12x50 Vortex Scope - It's not marked on the gun, but online shows a twist rate of 1:10 Lands: 2.745 using the Sierra bullet. Load - Nosler Brass twice fired, shoulder is .003 from...

What charge weight did you do the 117's at with IMR4350?

Thanks for the ideas on other possible causes. I shoot from two sets of bags currently, not just this gun but all my guns. This is the only one that is real nasty. I've been working up a load on a 7mm mag at the same time. Often shooting both guns testing loads at once. While one is...

I'll load up three this afternoon at this spec and send em!

Here is my Dirty Laundry on this load. Groups I am not proud of at all, but it was requested to see some shots and these were the only pictures I could find that I took. 100g Speer HPBT, 61g H100, Federal Match Primer, Seated 2.737 (.023 from lands) 117g Sierra GameKing, 56.3g H100, Federal...

We had a busy weekend, I got to do some loading, but no shooting (my range is on my property by my house. I walk to my shooting table lol). I loaded up 6 rounds with 61g of H1000, 100g Speers, in sets of two seated at .030, .033, .036 off the lands I also loaded up 6 rounds with 56.3g of...

Can't say I disagree. It's not my gun though, it's my father in law and he has one box of that Federal Ammo with Nosler bullets. I don't think you can get it anymore.

I've done this a few years ago. I think the secret sauce in the powder they use is the biggest factor though.

Thank you very much for sharing this data with me!

Thank you for the detail. I'm going to load some rounds with a seating depth of 35 and 40 here over lunch and send em. If I send it trending in the right way, I'm going ot do a full seat test starting at 35 off. Clarksburg is a great area. Some very good friends of the family are from that...

Thanks! I lived in Shinnston for a few years, worked out of Clarksburg until i took a promotion that moved me to the Pittsburgh PA area. I'm in Central PA now. Great country out your way, love the fly fishing there.
