    Finally !!!

    I just picked up some 7MM 175gn PT for actually a good price. Thank you Nosler. Putting together an Elk load for my 28 Nosler. My first Elk was with a 7MM RMag back in ‘82. I’ve watched my son put one on the ground with his 28 and both Elk were bang flop. That high SD with this PT should...

    Need feedback on Vortex scope

    I have a few of the Diamondbacks HPs but not at that power. For the $ they are worthy. They won’t compare to higher end scopes, but like I stated - in their price point, they are ok. I have not had a failure. Rimfire, up to .243 W. When I purchased mine I remember Vortex saying it was same...

    Reloader 17..

    I've been a long time user of RL17 in my 270 and 300 WSMs - I switched to RL26 but that is not available anymore. I'm going to try RL16 and Vihtavouri powders. Good luck

    Savage 99 Results

    This has got mind spinning on my Sav 99 - 300 Sav. I have a VXII 3x9x40 sitting on top. I’ve got plenty of factory CoreLokt 150 boxes but would like to load up something in the 125gn. I think it’s pretty amazing that we see the Sav 99 still popping up in the forum every once in a while...

    7MM Rem Mag For Elk ?

    As all the responses above are loud and clear ! Load up and go Elk hunting. My first elk was a 5pt with a 7Rem Mag and 175gn Core-Lokts. Bang flop. I presently shoot a 28N but that’s just a touch more fps than the King of 7’s. I load 160AB or the 175PT. I haven’t hunted with it yet but...

    Went Hunting this Christmas …. for Sheds

    Since the Flu A hit our family this Christmas, it was pretty quiet around here. My son and I slipped out Christmas morning looking for sheds or at least see if any have started dropping. What we found in our part of Idaho, was 4 bull Moose all packing their “bone”. 3 Whitetail … make that 4...

    28 nosler with 160 ballistic tips

    Yes the 28N is a rather high velocity round. Stay off the shoulder inside 250 yds and it will work for you. I too have the same load / ammo. Let me clarify - If it’s a bull tag , use the preferred bullet. Bulls don’t usually stand and pose presenting the “perfect” shot. Cow tag, go enjoy...

    Turkeys, turkeys everywhere!

    Yep - Lots of Turkeys here in the yard. Our canyon is loaded with them ! Very entertaining! I’m actually going to take one this spring for my first time, and try cooking it or make jerky. I’ll probably use an arrow. Been wading thru turkeys for over 40 years and just never had the desire to...

    First time to the skeet range

    Brings back memories. Must be about18 years ago now. We had a Gun Club before it was shut down here in Lewiston. My son started at 12 yrs old on the Skeet field. By 14 he took the Skeet Jrs Trophy home that year. I took the Skeet Doubles home. We always enjoyed Wed, Sat and Sunday...

    Tape over the muzzle?

    Ben putting tape on muzzleloader almost 40 years. Used RED electrical tape on my son’s first rifles when he started carrying to help visualize where his muzzle is pointed. Part of the safety training. Never ran test but the occasional shot at a target with no apparent shift.

    My Deer Season is over !!!

    Man that hurts just reading that. Most of us that have spent years in the back country can relate to injuries and what it takes to get out of there and the recovery. Rest and then rehab! Do yourself a favor and do the rehab right! Your investing in your future - trust me I know…

    NOSLER FACTORY BLEMS

    In last 20 years I have purchased $100’s worth of 2nds / blems. Maybe over $1K of them. Never had a complaint! I’ve only loaded my 6.5 Norma with Hammer , the rest of all my loads are Nosler. Oh and one box of Hornady for my 45-70. So it’s 99% Nosler ….

    anybody fish for

    Caught some gigantic carp out of Lake Michigan at the Nuc plant discharge in the spring. Now this was probably 45 years ago but they were in the 20 - 30+ range. One or two to get it out of your system then back to trout fishing.

    Grouse Galore!

    We call them “Chickens “ over here in Idaho. Back in Northern Minnesota we called them Partridge. In Wisconsin everyone just called them Grouse. By any name I still grab out 4 or 5 each season on the good years and on a bed of wild rice they sure are good.
