    Centerfire rifles to hunt the world

    I think I could pick three and be just as well but I will play along! 1) .220 Swift - Varmints especially. 2) .25-06 Remington - Smaller deer and Antelope 3) .30-06 Springfield - Anything short of Dangerous Game but especially mule deer, elk, black bear, caribou and moose 4) .375 H&H Magnum...

    So Glad That I Tried Different Rifle Cartridges & Loads!

    As a younger man I wanted to try them all. But as wisdom replaced folly, I have tended to find a single “all-around” load in each gun and stick to it. The guns I prefer are mostly utilitarian choices so that they could with a different bullet be used on different game or for different purposes...

    .223 Coyote Load?

    The 55 grain BT and Varget have proven to be a great combo in .223, .22-250 and .220 Swift rifles in my experience. With that fast twist, you should probably give something in the 68-75 grain range a try. I used to shoot the Hornady 68 grain BTHP Match bullets in my AR-15 which was a .223...

    Keith on Partitions

    The Partition is a fine bullet! For me the Accubonds shoot better 9 times out of 10 and perform just as well or have so far for me in every cartridge I have tried them in. I made the change to the Accubond as my standard go to in several rifles about 10-12 years back. I have pretty much used...

    Ramshot Hunter in .243 Win?

    Has anyone tried Ramshot Hunter in .243 Win? I have a few folks wanting me to load up 100 grain bullets for deer season etc. The .243 is quite popular around here and with good reason, its accurate, easy to shoot and kills quite well for its size. It is the cartridge that Charles Newton intended...

    20 cartridges to rule them all

    In the same vein of Blkram's thought-provoking posts, I submit the following to the collective for discussion. If you could, which would be the 20 cartridges that could stay, and the rest were ended in the name of standardizing production and materials for availability? Although this is only a...

    FS - JP Sauer and Sohn Mauser 98 Sporter .35 Whelen

    Also just for general knowledge, I would take a decent Winchester Model 70 XTR or New Haven Featherweight in .243 as a partial trade and take the balance in $$!

    FS - JP Sauer and Sohn Mauser 98 Sporter .35 Whelen

    I haven't fired a shot through it. I would imagine very well but never got the chance and rather than invest a bunch of money developing a load etc. I am sending it down the road.

    Skinner Optics 1-6x24

    My thoughts exactly, you’re looking pretty hard to find sharper recoil than the .458 Lott.

    Well I did it...

    Very nice Fotis!! I think I will join the 6.5 Swede club in time but I think I’m going to hold out for a nice Mauser sporter or a M70 XTR Featherweight. 🤷‍♂️

    Another Model 70

    We did, thank the Lord, though not as much as I would’ve liked. “Spooky dry” is an excellent description of our area too.
