    A couple ole Mauser Builds

    Nice rifles. A 6.5x55 would be a good conversion for my extra Rem 700 270 win.

    270 Winchester

    The first great load I put together for my 270 win was a 130 gr Partition and H-4350. I've found that 130 Partitions are finicky to length and I really couldn't tell you what that length is because all five of them were different. 130 Sierra Game Kings have also done well. I've also worked...

    230 gr 45 ACP... 1000 fps?

    Years ago I loaded up some 200 gr Speer hollow points with Alliant Blue Dot that were over 1100 fps. They were hand bruisers and ended up being of no use to me. That was with a 5" Gold Cup.

    Cheap gun?

    At one time a Rem 700 ADL from Academy or Walmart was cheaper than a bare 700 action from Brownells. Not so today.

    Made my contribution.....

    When I was a youngster we would go to the Valley (border counties) to shoot white wing dove. We would just pull off on the county road and go at it. You could also hunt on some of the larger ranches by giving the foreman beer or other such beverages. Oilfield people like my dad knew most of...

    New Kimber 1911

    Couple of weeks ago I did my LEOSA retired peace officers qualifications with my new Springfield LW 1911 9mm. I like it.

    Best affordable scope

    I think a Leupold VX- Freedom 4x-12x would suffice and it will give reasonable eye relief when set a far back as will go on the Ruger #1. It's also in your price range.

    220 Swift case issue

    Fired off some rounds trimmed to minimum length (2.185) in both new brass and fired brass I resized to the chamber. I also fired brass trimmed to 2.200 on resized brass and untrimmed (2.195) new brass. Only the the new brass ended up with the tip of the neck tapered after firing. What the...

    Damage Deer Down

    Guy, a hunt with an old friend is something to be treasured. Must of been a good day. BTW, I had a fellow police officer years ago that was Navy. He was medic attached to a Marine platoon in Vietnam. He never said a negative word about the Marines.

    220 Swift case issue

    OK, so here is where I'm at, I scrubbed the throat and the little taper on the fired cases persist. I did a dimensional check on the brass and found everything within spec. The cases were all new and unfired cases (Hornady flavor). The cases measured 2.195 before firing and 2.200 after. Of...
