I've used the .210 grain NPT in my 338-06AI. Accuracy with them has been about .5" at 100 yards. So far with 4 shoots I've taken a moose and 2 white-tailed deer, the deer green scored 181 and 154. I shot the moose twice. He would not have needed the second shot, but wanted to keeping him from...
A 6.5-280AI sounds like such a cool cartridge and I'm sure it will be a shooter! I have a 6.5-06AI and love shooting it. So far it has only been used on paper, steel, and rocks, but I have no doubt that it is going to perform well on game. There is just something about the performance of a .264...
My wife drove a Chevy Equinox until the wheels about fell off. Other than normal maintenance we never had to put any money into it. It was a great car. She has back and spinal issues that affect her ability to get in and out of a vehicle on both sides, and she uses a walker to get around. We...
I acquired this set of rings in a trade, and never found a need for them. They appear to be un-used. Someone can have them for $10 to cover the cost of shipping.
This is a hard one, but some that need attention are:
Winchester 70 in 7mm Rem Mag
Browning 1895 in 30-06
Ruger #1AB in 30-06
Ruger #1B in .280 Rem
Remington 81 in .300 Sav
Remington 141 in .35 Rem
Marlin 336 in 30-30
Springfield M1 in 30-06
Muzzleloaders (3) in .50
S&W in .41 Mag (has not been...
My choice is a good solid picatinny rail with the best rings that I can find. My rings of choice were the TPS, but the company went out of business. Just hoping that someone picks up the design.
I usually start a new load by seating bullets .020" of the lands, but in some cases your magazine will dictate otherwise. As an example, I was loading for a friend's Browning .300 Win Mag. His choice was the Berger 190 grain VLD hunting bullet. In testing, it required that I start .180" of the...
Nicely done! Glad to see the 6.5x55 living on. I've been watching for a Winchester model 70 featherweight to come a long in 6.5x55, but if I can't find one, a Tikka might be my answer.
Forty-five years ago the 25-20 was a favorite among a small group of five of us for hunting snowshoe hare with beagles. That was before they reintroduced wolves into this part of Wisconsin. Now you can't find a snowshoe in this part of the state. Growing up small game hunting like this was very...
Lol...I'm sure someone else has built something similar at some point. It would make me happy if someone thought it was useful enough them to copy. But like I said before, I would change it to only use three points of adjustment for leveling the jig. Once the jig is level, a small bubble level...
