    Spring Bear 2021

    I used my Nosler M48 in 300WSM. I've got a hand load with 64gr of Hybrid 100V under a 180gr Accubond that clocks in 2980 at the muzzle.

    Spring Bear 2021

    We hit Kachemak Bay for spring bear this year. The weather has been pretty cold and spring was pretty late so the bears weren't as active as last year (which I had to sit out due to work). The hunt plan was pretty simple, glass a large tidal flat and spot and stalk a bear as it popped out of...

    out of business

    Maybe their storefront is closed to foot traffic. It's not like Nosler has a big OTC business.

    Finally had a Kimber that wouldn't shoot

    I had an 8400 in 30-06 that wouldn't shoot better than 2" with anything from their "problem era" in the mid 2000s. I did some testing with everything I could source, but ultimately sent it packing down the road.

    Experiences with older Howa 1500's?

    I've had a few of these in both Howa and Vanguard form. All of them shot very well and the Howa folks machine them as clean as anyone does. I'd give it a shot.

    Here you go. No cuts or splits at all. Mag box is solid up both sides.

    Learning Rescources

    You Tube has several good channels specific to reloading. While a lot of the content is pretty advanced, there are some great introductory videos to get started.

    My Divorce From Nosler

    I've been stacking a little cash for a new build. I had though about another Nosler considering how well I've loved the one I've got. I gotta say, that's probably not going to happen if I keep seeing these kinds of photos. At the price point these go for, there's no excuse to let that out the...

    M48 box mag

    Mine definitely doesn't look like that. What is the model and cartridge?

    Normal?

    I don't think they're cast, pretty sure that's just a crappy cerakote job. I looks like something under the coating off-gassed and bubbled up during the curing process.

    Ready to load for 300 Win. Mag.

    I did just a work up with H4831/ 180AB in a buddy's 300WM. Speeds were a little slow, but accuracy was there. I'm not one to exceed factory load data, but everything points to me seating the bullet long and giving it some more gas. I really want to load up some H1000, but it's been as rare as...

    Thompson Center production shut down - company to be sold

    I can only hope that someone will buy them up and start production. If S&W is keeping the tooling, that'll cramp things a bit. But in the age of CNC, that isn't the showstopper it once was.

    Opinions?

    My local stores seem to get a little bit in every day or so and it sells out immediately. So ammo is coming in regularly and people are buying it up. All the manufacturers are making the common stuff except for folks like Weatherby and Nosler that have boutique rounds to feed as part of their...

    Range day success...

    I took my Nosler 300WSM out to sight things in for an upcoming bear hunt with some handholds. 180gr ABs over 64gr of Hybrid 100V. I've been concerned that I'm seeing some throat erosion since the rifle has been the "go-to" for the last 15 years and has had quite a few rounds down the tube. My...

    What would you do?

    I'd load 'em up and roll with it. No disrespect to your friend...but the that rifle is shooting better than he does and frankly, likely better than it ever has. Sometimes good enough is just that...good enough.

    your 2021 hunting plans ?

    I didn't draw anything at all, so all OTC tags for me. May is a week long spring bear trip in a new area for me- my partners did it last year and the area is thick with bears so it should be a good time. August and September- I'm planning to hit the Dalton with my bow. That'll be a change for...

    308 Lever gun

    Moose aren't terribly hard to kill, but they can take a while to die. At moderate range, a .308 with a Partition or Accubond is a good choice. Put it behind the shoulder and let biology run its course. I prefer a .300, but that's because I hunt moose in dead open country and ranges tend to be...

    Feelin' Rich

    Yeah, prices are scandalous and that's if you even find stuff. My local shops have a bunch of odds and ends for ammo, nothing at all for components. I'm very happy my hunting rifles are squared away for some time. I had though about branching out into a new cartridge, but I'm thinking I'll hold...

    Inertia guns 3" shells

    I've been using my Benelli M2 inertia gun with 3" shells for waterfowl a bunch. Does fine, better the 2.75" club loads in really cold weather.
