My spike elk on the game trailer I built. Used my 300RUM w/200gn ABs. The game trailer worked great with one minor design flaw, which has now been fixed. The trip from camp to where I shot was a 12 mile round trip.

Talley ring/mount set-up has been great on 338RUM. I initially started out with Leupold 2pc standard mounts/rings, but the recoil of this gun destroyed the rear standard mount and ring. After reading about a few of you using Talley products, I went looking on Midway's website and found a set of...

Well, crap. I thought I had 6mm 95BTs. I have 90BTs.

About the only thing I'm OCD about it, ensuring the components I use while loading ammo are exactly the products I plan on using. No other powder, primers, brass or bullets are on the bench. And in regards to another post about grabbing the wrong rifle is why I won't have two rifles that are...

It's because the tips of the 165ABs are bent. Copy and pasted from SPS. Nosler Trophy Grade 308 Win 165 Grain AccuBond (BLEM) - 20ct Loaded with a AccuBond 165 Grain Spitzer Bullet and Nosler Cartridge Brass. This ammunition is loaded with a 165 grain AccuBond bullet with a BENT TIP. This...

Here's my 30-06 load for my WBY Vanguard sporter. 180AB Nosler brass trimmed to 2.48" 55.5gn of H414 Fed GM210M primer COL: 3.390" Muzzle velocity is around 2823 FPS

I've been searching for a light weight rifle for her for a few weeks. She currently has a Savage Axis II Hardwoods in 6.5 Creed, but it weighs in at a little over 8lbs with the scope. She's a breast cancer survivor, but the chemo treatment has totally screwed her body up. It triggered several...

I use H322 in my 204. I use HDY 32gn V-Max bullets and brass. (only thing available when I bought it as that cal. was just released). My recipe is: 27gn H322, GM205M primer, brass trimmed to 1.84", OAL (base to bullet tip) 2.32". I have a Savage 12FV with a 26" barrel and get right at 4000 fps...

About the same as last year. Spend 2 weeks looking for mule deer and antlered elk, but with one major change. My wife got us permission to hunt on some private property which also allows us to cross through said property to access some public land that is surrounded by private property. This...

Now you can buy some tubes for it and have all the shot shell gauges in one gun. I have the 20ga tubes for my Browning Cynergy 12ga.

Exactly what I did when I first got into loading my own ammo, religiously checked SPS multiple times a day for bullets. I only check it periodically now as I'm well stocked for the calibers I have.

I highly recommend Davis Tent & Awning. I've had their tent since 2006. If you take care if it, it'll last a life time. Ensuring the tent is 100% dry before storing it is critical. https://www.davistent.com

Congrats to your Bride, Jim. I have the M48 Liberty in 30 Nosler. Currently, I'm using Nosler Trophy Grade ammo with the 180AB and will eventually develop a load for it. I scored big time 2 years ago and was able to get five boxes of Nosler TG 180AB ammo from MidwayUSA for $36 a box. I would go...

Now available from Nosler

Having worked at Cabela's putting out the ammo and other products that come in on the trucks, the local store employees do not know what products are coming in on the trucks.

I wish I could post some hunting pics of Elk or Mule deer my wife (As of 5 Sept 2020) and I got this season. I think the lack of finding animals was due to the warmer temps and lack of hunters. We believe with the furloughs/lay-offs due to Covid, lots of people were not able to take time off...

When I retired from the USAF in 2010, I was almost tempted to ask if they had any of the old Presidential "Certificates of Retirement" that was signed by George Bush instead of getting one signed by Obama....

Well, I'm taking out my (Win Mod 70) 270WSM w/140ABs for some of the deer season and take my (Browning A-Bolt) 338WM w/225ABs for antlered elk. Neither of these rifles have seen much use in the last several years.

Is it bad that I have enough rifles that I can't decide which rifle to use? LOL

Oh I do remember Bivwak. Spent a fair amount of money there. 8) 8) 8)
