Just prior to my retirement I was a member of a committee tasked with choosing a new duty gun for my agency and to consider changing from 40 to 9mm. We called/emailed numerous departments/ agencies of all sizes, urban and rural, and the overall findings were: A majority of the officers on the...

In the early 2000's Tikka made a sub-series of their T-3 rifles called a Big Boar. It had a full length stock with a 19 inch barrel. 308 Win, 30-06, and 300 WSM were the only chamberings. I have been able to find a 300 WSM and a 30-06 but would like to find a 308 to complete the set. I have...

I dont know if this will meet your criteria exactly, but Speer is showing a 120 gr Grand Slam, $20.99/50 on their website.

FWIW, I have a Grice special run 7600. It's a black synthetic. 280 that was made in the mid-to late 90's (I think). A guy had a LGS order it for him then backed out of the deal when it arrived. Another guy bought it but didn't take the best care of it and lost it when he didn't pay the Pawn...

My wife found this on Facebook and I thought I would share Ron

Glad you're doing better and the prognosis is good as well. One of my best friends had a similar experience many moons ago while bow hunting bear in Canada. He killed his bear while having the symptoms you described, then dressed it, etc. He didn't get any medical attention until he was back...

I've gotten similar results with 00 buck out of several 870's too. Turkey loads with Flitecontrol wads are my first choice for the same reason. Ron

These bullets are shown available on the Speer website. $43.99/100. Ron

My stepson used these several years ago in a 35 Whelen and killed a nice 12 pt. It worked great, no complaints.

I have used TGKs in a 7mm Rem Mag and ELD-Xs in a 6.5 PRC on deer and had great results. However, I have used Ballistic Tips FAR more than either, and in a while herd of calibers, with equal success. Ron

I had the chance to stop by the store yesterday and look at it again, closer. Nothing different to describe except I noticed the action is one with Nazi proof marks. I also ascertained the barrel is a 24 inch heavy sporter . It has a Tasco 3-9x as well. The guys at the store said the previous...

$499

Reloading for it isn't a problem. I would have to get dies, of course, but I already have brass to convert.

My LGS recently acquired a rifle in this caliber. It's a 98 Mauser action with unknown brand barrel and trigger in a walnut stock. I have known of this caliber for many years but never owned one among my 6.5s. In researching it after seeing the rifle, it seems to me it is similar in performance...

Oldest stepdaughter got this guy this morning. 75 yds, 6.5 Creedmoor, 123 gr SST, drop and flop.

That's a great buck! Congratulations! Ron

I own a farm so I get a free any-deer tag for that (so does my wife) and in Missouri you can buy one resident any-deer and 1-2 antlerless tags depending on the county you live in. However, if you want to play the game, you can buy tags and fill up to 2 antlerless tags in the counties that allow...

Doe yesterday morning, 290 yds, same rifle and load as above. I really, really like the 6.5 PRC.

Yesterday morning my oldest stepson shot a doe at 35ish yds withs a 35 Remington using FTX factory loads. He said she took off like a missile and he tracked her about 100 yds. When cleaning her we found the bullet had destroyed the liver and the rear portion of the lungs but, again, the ability...
