That's a fairly serious looking crater on the firing pin. Nice looking rifle though.

Nice ones Jim. Hope you folks collect them.

That will work for anything I can imagine.

You have a very generous uncle. If you are already loading a different 140 gr bullet and get good results that's a good place to start.

A well know writer outdoor TV dude admitted couple years ago about putting a 7mm08 shell in a 25-06. Now that was a tight squeeze! He made the mistake of having different calibers on the bench at the same time and stuck the wrong one in the chamber. He said he wanted to remind folks to be...

Glad you got it done and stuck with it. Looking forward to seeing the pictures. Happy hunting.

Here's wishing her a successful hunt.

#3 group shows 3 shots about 1 in with 2 flyers. They looked about evenly spaced but opposite directions. You say you don't normally throw shots but just maybe you did pull at least one. Maybe not. I know you are running out of bullets but try loading four instead of five, split the difference...

I wouldn't want a magazine to hang down below the stock. I like the ability to carry it holding onto the magazine area. Just wish they made one of better quality and the same size.

Don't know about price increase but seen powder showing up that hasn't been available for quite awhile. In two different stores I have seen H4895. This has been absent in my area for some time. Not cheap but available. Think was $65-67 lb.

I guess this is the proper place for this question if not please place correctly. Does anyone make a replacement magazine not made of plastic for the Ruger American Gen 1? I have one of these in 223 Rem that is a great grouper and enjoy it, but the magazines leave a lot to be desired. Have two...

Congratulations Fotis. Appears this rifle caliber is the ticket for antelope. Do the Bees get made if they aren't taken afield:unsure:

Has anyone used this powder and if so, which cartridges was it used in?

Glad you got to break-in your rifle and fill the freezer.

I like the looks of these better than the older Mod 77.

I like black powder as you do. Prefer it to Pyrodex. It's not hard to clean up after shooting either. Just make sure to remove all the fouling. Have tried different solutions over the years but one I use a lot I found in Muzzle Blasts magazine years ago uses Murphys Oil Soap, rubbing alcohol...
