    Barrel spec recommendations

    Talked to Paul (Gunsmith) yesterday and my barrel finally came in. Said he would get it spun up shortly and the new trigger installed and assembled . Picked up a bunch of 165gr seconds from Nosler recently . Will have to get to the reloading bench soon to work up some loads.

    Quail Newb

    I have hunted them in GA and AZ. Used my 11-87 12 gauge with an improved cylinder and whatever shells were left over from dove season. I always liked the ones that flew from between your feet the best. Always a fun bird to hunt.

    Do you wear latex gloves while reloading?

    My hands sweat in those things.

    Any plans for a new rifle in 2025?

    I see Ruger released a #1A in 308. It’s tugging hard at my Wallet .

    Completed transition from Alliant to Hodgdon...

    Luckily I never developed a load with Alliant powders. Got some RL22 once years ago and never worked up a load for my 257 Weatherby with it. Used it to get a few scopes on paper for n different guns. Mainly use Hodgdon powders in all my guns.

    Gaps in your caliber battery

    I am covered from .17 to .30 and then make a big leap to .458 . I want a lever in .35 . Since i I never plan to hunt anywhere out of the State (WV) I really don’t need anymore large caliber/long range guns in the line up.

    Why No Love for The .308 Winchester

    Just ordered a couple hundred 165gr BT’s and Solid Base seconds to try in a rifle I am currently having rebarreled to 308. Will try and find a good load with some fresh Varget I recently picked up.

    live primers

    I don’t want to risk soiling my only pair of clean underwear so I soak mine overnight in water.

    What do you do with your turkey?

    I usually slice and batter fry the breast then throw the rest into a crock pot until it falls off the bone then I use my favorite chicken tortilla soup recipe . Quite tasty.

    Favourite Firearms?

    My favorite rifle is a Ruger #1 and if it’s a RSI model that’s even better. Favorite pistol is a 1911 in 45

    Oh the bench...the MESSY bench

    I agree, my bench is a mess. Been remodelling the Man Cave and have stuff everywhere. Getting warm enough here I can spend time reloading again.

    Favorite European Cartridge?

    I too like the 6.5x55 and the 7x57. Both have preformed well for me with 139gr bullets and if we are talking European the 275 Rigby just sounds cool. I got one in a 77 RSI because the guy said it was to pretty to shoot so I got it and promptly shot it.

    Favourite cartridges based off the H&H Case?

    It would be the 257 Weatherby in a Ruger #1B.

    Favourite 308-Based Cartridge?

    The Ruger was offered up with that little pencil barrel and just didn’t look right. I eyed it for a while just couldn’t get past the looks, if it had been a 1B I would have got it. Thought about having JES rebore my 77 RSI in 308 to 338 Federal.

    Favourite 308-Based Cartridge?

    I too own several 308 Babies. I wanted a 7-08 for a long time. Purchased some dies on a great deal a few years before I got the rifle. Ended up with a #1 A IN 7-08. Not my favorite model but that thing is a death ray on deer. I hunt with several rifles during season but that is usually the rifle...
