If you have 4831 or 4831sc, give it a try with the 100gr + bullets. Mine loves that setup.

Nice. I have used some fusions in my 270 and they kick some major butt. I think I shot 4 buck with them and only one wasn't an instant drop. Wish they sold them for reloading.

I have a Ruger M77 in 243 that is short and light. Not sure if they make it anymore though. I have a S&W 1500 (Howa) in 243 with a wood stock. They are quite heavy.

Anyone have any opinions on how full moon effects hunting? I just read an article based on radio collared whitetail deer and it states full moon does not impact deer movement. I always dread full moon hunting because it usually has sucky results. In 25-30 years of hunting, if opening day of...

Might be a hate crime. They shot an illegal alien.... :mrgreen:

I would hope so. Just trying to figure out how we will convince them to walk around wearing bacon "air freshners".

I have no problem with wolves as long as they introduce them in DC on a few fenced in properties...

I hunted Friday afternoon in my normal muzzleloader stand that always produces deer. Didn't see anything for the whole afternoon. So I guess the deer aren't moving into the fields like they usually do. Mast crop is better this year. I went up into my buck stand Saturday morning. I saw 3 doe...

Get ready for a warm start to the Flintlock season. Around 50 friday and saturday....

I doubt a jag could scratch a barrel that easily. Are you sure it isn't residue coming from the jag itself?

Damn I think my H&R 9 shot 22 pistol should be worth at least $1000 now... I don't know why someone would pay $4000 for that $500 turd when you could have bought a nice custom.

I witnessed that already. I was looking at the round ball display right in front of the counter when the question was asked. Was about 8 or so years ago when inlines were approved for the early season. Was funny as hell. He told them to go to Walmart for that crap because he doesn't sell it...

The other thing that could cause issues in fluorescent lights. Some of the newer t8 ballasts give off horrible RF. Anything directly under the light seems OK. But if a radio is about 6-10' away you have a lot of static. Another thing to try it plugging the scale into a UPS. That would rule...

That isn't bad. Good thing flintlocks are heavy. Someone called in for a repair today and got verbally spanked. "Call back next week when everyone is back from hunting and make an appointment." Someone else called and wanted a trade-in price on something and was told "no prices over the...

Dixons was full today but they said it wasn't as bad as yesterday. They said yesterday was one of the busiest days all year. I got the last 4F they had packaged in the small containers. Guess they have to split more containers for tomorrow. They had a few newbies buying flintlocks for the...

I thought you used an elbedritschel's burlap bag to catch unburned powder? :mrgreen: You could use a duplex load too. Not my favorite thing to mess with but some 4F with 2F over it always can make thing go better depending on the weather.

Hope it isn't messing up your patches when loading. I would zero at 75 if you stick with the current charge weight. Longest shot I made on a deer was 120ish so I have my 50 sighted in dead on at 100.

They are usually in a bin near the panel saw or chop saw. Some place paint the 1 end yellow and tag a reduced price on it.

I wouldn't go through the hassles with laminating cedar. Plus I am not sure how long cedar or other soft pine will last. It might splinter after a few reloads. I would use it as is and make or buy a good one later. You could stop in at HD at cabelas and see if they have any oak cutoffs. Most...

I didn't get there but I did find another flint. So I have 3. Have 1lb of FFG and 1/2 a container of 4F from Dixons. Thought I was down to 10 roundball but found a new box of 100. You can make one out of almost anything. I have an oak one that is 1.5" x 5.25" x 3/4" that holds 5 50cal. Just...
