Read this post while sitting at the dining room table with cookies in the oven. I'm looking out the back yard thinking that I haven't filled a tag this year, but today that doesn't matter. Hope all of you have a wonderful Christmas.

Can only add that I've come in both slower and faster than book velocities. If I think there is something off, the first thing I do is stop, then I check additional loading resources to see what they say about my loads, or similar loads. I've seen some big differences between different load...

Okay, I've found an issue with this particular rifle; It does not want to cycle certain ammunition. I'm sure that doesn't come as a surprise to anyone, but perhaps someone could give some insights I'm missing. With factory Federal AE 240 SJHP, it simply does not want to load the round from the...

Well, now that I have had the opportunity to read the article, I reiterate my original points. If those brands continue to be manufactured in the US, I am considerably less concerned with who owns the company. I am very much interested in the US maintaining both manufacturing capability - of...

No, I was not able to. Thank you for added this context.

Looks like you really did find the treasure at the end of the rainbow.

While I am interested in who owns it, I am more concerned about where it is made and what it costs. Will my cost go up, or down? Will Federal ammo and components be made here, or overseas with a Federal logo stamped on the box?

Nothing wrong with modest recoil. After shooting the wife's 243, I have to confess I was thinking about purloining it for my own purposes. It's light, light recoiling, accurate, and perfectly good on anything I'd hunt with it locally (and even a few things I'd go on the road for). Don't get...

Felt like my heart might have stopped a moment looking at all that goodness. Next time you cook up something like this, don't forget to invite me! :ROFLMAO:

Beautiful buck and a great story well told!

We're talking about guns, right?

Then you'll like my.. ahem 9.1x63 Whelen. I've never shot a moose, but I have known two people nearly killed by moose in separate car accidents. In both cases the moose survived and the car didn't. Tough critters. Sorry, '86 Volkswagen isn't a caliber recommendation as the OP requested, nor...

All of this. Knew a lot of Utah hunters that used .270 Win. I did the math once, and if I recall, I think the average shot from the stories they told was between 80 and 120 yards. So this levels.

Not sure what circumstances are now, but you should be able to get them through Dixie Gun Works... Um.. Link here: DixieGunWorks

Ah, yes, but I've been washed more recently. :sneaky:

I have made them with W296, which I understand is basically H110, and also with Blue Dot. I find that Blue Dot is a fair bit more difficult to measure, and seems to burn a bit dirtier. That said, I also find it works very well. Think I'm at +/- 15 gr of Blue Dot with 240gr cast. Don't recall...

I love levers and those look absolutely fantastic! A takedown 45-90? Where has this been all my life?

That does look amazing. I expect you will have stories to tell about it and yotes before too much longer.

I look for jobs out that way every week. And houses for sale.

Seeing those pics has led me to believe two things: 1) I need to handgun hunt more 2) I live in the wrong place That's good shooting, but an amazing vista. Good for you.
