As Bob Dylan put it, the times they are a changin’.
When I was a kid, the ranchers bought us .22 cartridges by the brick and were grateful to have us come shoot ground squirrels. These days they charge $250-300 per shooter, per day to come shoot the ground squirrels and the city dudes gladly...
It’s on my bucket list. A buddy hunted Hawaii (not sure which island but thinking Oahu or Maui) on vacation. I believe he only had to pay $250 for permission to hunt private. He took an Axis buck and his brother in law took some kind of goat. Lots of steep hills to climb.
He took a Ruger...

I generally start with the bullet manufacturer’s recommended COAL in the loading manual. Typically this is a winning combo right out of the blocks. In fact with hunting rifles (versus match/target rifles) it will shoot <1.5 MOA with the book COAL (cartridge over all length) leaving me to only...
A lot of quality work that you put in! Nice job. Easily the nicest looking Remington 783 that I have ever beheld.
And it’s really hard not to love a .308!
I am not retired, but have been accused of being retarded more than once. With friends like mine…you know the rest. 😂
I am awake at 5am every morning whether its a workday or not. Early to bed, early to rise and all that.
If our baby girl lets me, and I remember to put on my CPAP, I sleep...
My wife Emma shoots a Weatherby Vanguard youth model 7mm-08! And she is Little Annie Oakley with that rifle. I have never loaded her with anything but 140 grain PSPCLs or Sierra Gamekings on top of IMR 4350. I cannot remember the exact charge but its not max. Recoil is nil and report is mild...
