    270-760

    Rem brought it out to compete with the 243WW but put the wrong twist for the 244 in the barrel and it killed the sales since it wouldn't shoot all bullet wieghts well. They changed the name to 6mm Rem and changed the twist rate but the damage was done. I always wanted a 6mmRem but settled for...

    Preferred handgun hunting bullet?

    A Elmer Keith style hard cast semi wad cutter in a revolver and a 68 H&G style in semi autos would be my first choice due to known performance on game animals from Bear to deer. If you can get the poly costed bullets to shoot accurately at 50yds they would be cleaner to reload. Semi wad cutters...

    Work Sharp Elite (blade sharpener) flipped my thinking...

    When I was around 12yrs old my sisters boy friend taught me how he was taught by the USN to sharpen a knife using a wet stone and spit. I soon learned I could get a sharper edge using oil. Then I discovered the Lansky sharpening system when I was in my late 20ys. I wore my first out a few years...

    A-Square vs AI

    Weatherby adopted A-Square 338-06 drawings and built a few rifles but the ammo was all over the place as for specification and some would fit the chamber and some wouldn't which is probably why it is still a hand loading only option to get ammo. I was looking to buy one when I had my 35 Whelen...

    Soon to pick up a 300 Kong..now it's time for a scope..

    This use to be a nice polite Forum but it seems to be getting a little out of hand.

    Soon to pick up a 300 Kong..now it's time for a scope..

    First off congrats on a new rifle, secondly I would suggest a scope that has a known reputation for durability. My one and only 300Wby ate scopes for breakfast lunch and dinner, that said stick something on it known to handle heavy recoil and vibration, vibration kills more scopes than anything.

    Back in the saddle

    Here's a thought that I'm not sure of but If I understand right the Constitution says that a Pres. candidate can't run for more than 2 consecutive terms but in his case, he failed in getting elected for a second term so I'm wondering if he gets a reset and can run for re-election after this term?

    NF ATACR – 5-25x56mm

    I've seen these on precision long range .22 rim fires for precision long range target shooting. Not something I would want to lug around on a hunting rifle.

    USPS Tracking Joke

    I have watched my USPS shipments pass my house and go 200 miles in the wrong direction and then turn around and bounce back and forth between DC's for two days before landing at the post office for delivery.

    Dead Deer

    The farmers in my area are finding lots of dead deer in the soy bean fields while harvesting the beans. No one seems to know what's killing the deer. Today one farmer found what looked to be a healthy 14 point White tail dead in one of his fields. We have seen some CDW and Blue tonge but these...

    165gr vs 180gr Partition

    I got tired of throwing away meat that was blood shot when using light (150gr) bullets on deer so when the 165gr bullets came out I tried them and never looked back. I felt the 180gr was a bit over kill for our eastern white tails and the 165gr seemed perfect. I have never had one go farther...

    Lyman Gen 6

    I may be late for the party but I'm old school and weigh each of the charges on a RCBS/OHUAS 10-10-10 Bearm scale. Used it so much I broke the powder pan handle off and have placed it on the pan hanger to still get accurate weights. I need to find a new powder pan one day since it's a pain...

    Necking up 270 Winchester brass to 35 Whelen?

    I use Redding dies for 35 Whelen and for the 35AI. I have used 270 brass and 280 brass to make both and my dies have a tappered neck expander in the 35whelen/AI and annealing the necks first is always best before resizing. The 270/280 brass is longer than 30-06, I have lost a few but they were...

    New Vintage Woods Rifle

    Very Nice Jim, I always wanted one in 6mm but could never get past the asking price when new and could never find a used one at a price I liked.
