Scheels had a small stock of 209A, 210M, and 215M primers in stock yesterday.

I've been watching to see when Encore frames are available again. They are supposed to be out sometime in 2025.

That was a very cool video. It is one thing to see something like that , but another to video it. That is one thing I enjoy about spring turkey hunting is observing the different wildlife, even if I don't harvest a bird. One of the things I noticed this year is that the gray wolf population...

The Encore is a great platform. I'm looking forward to hear if you ended up buying one of them, which one, and how does it shoot.

I never tried solid base in my 22-250, but my 7x57 loved them. I still have a small stash of the 140s. I like to call them whitetail wonders.

My first elf was with a 7mm Rem Mag and 175 grain SGK. It was a one and done kill at about 250 yards. On that hunt we took four bulls and all were one and done at various yardages. The cartridges that were used included: 7mm Remington Magnum - 175 grain 300 Winchester Magnum - 180 grain 30-06 -...

When I retired my son gave me a Cooper model 22 6.5x284 Norma that was equipped with a Nightforce Competition model scope. The glass was clear, but found the reticle to be too fine for my eyes. It came with a lighted dot in the center of the reticle, but it was so weak you couldn't see it in...

I'm thinking you would end up with similar results.

My season ended turkeys 2 and Gary 0, so don't have to worry how to fix it this year.

I've got one of these on the shelf, but have not used it in s long time. The rings seem to have improved over the years to where it hasn't been necessary. I used it a lot back when I was using Leupold and Redfield rings and bases. I need to open the box and check to se it mine has rusted.

It isn't what I use today, but a bottle of Hoppes #9 sets on the shelf next to where I work on and clean my guns. The cap gets opened every now and then, just for that nostalgic smell.

We lose two to three yearly to this, mostly during the deer gun season.

I started hunting with a model 325 in 30-30 when I turned twelve. I got the 325 because they were cheaper than a Winchester model 94, which cost $45.

Yes it is here. Spent time this last week hunting turkeys. So far it stands at turkeys 2 and Gary 0.

The favorites that I currently own are Ruger #1s. The favorites that I don't own yet are Winchester model 71s and 64s.

You didn't say at what ranges your friends are taking game. That could impact their blood trails. The 6.5 Creedmoor is inherently an accurate cartridge and many are using it for long range target shooting, but like all cartridges used to harvest game, each has its limitations. There is more than...

My 280 700 Remington Mountain Rifle shoots a ragged one hole group with 140 gr Sierra Game Kings and a stiff load of IMR-4350. Groups do open up as I try to increase bullet weight. If your Mountain Rifle is the same model as mine, you may see your groups open up with 175 grain. I believe, it's...

Smith model 41, .22 LR for target Browning Nomad, .22 LR for small game and trapping Browning Hi-Power, 9mm for target and plinking Smith model 657-3, .41 Mag for larger game Kimber 1911 Ultra Carry II, .45ACP for a carry piece I have others, but these tend to be the favorites

My .44 bullets are limited to those made by Hornady and Speer. This is only because they were what was available locally when I picked up my Ruger 96/44. Unless I was having an issue there was no reason to introduce another into the mix.
