    2025 Hunting Season

    That looks like a great buck to me, how heavy was he?!?! Nice job on the reload and the harvest.

    2025 Hunting Season

    Great story, and congrats on hanging a tag. The ol bruiser has been running your woods for some time! I've never seen a squirrel with colors like you posted. In central PA I see them either solid gray or red with some gray (true fox colors) and rarely I see solid black. Down in TX they are...

    Any plans for a new rifle in 2025?

    I've heard the model 307's are top notch. I haven't asked or spoken about any of the others. The new factory is supposedly producing very nice rifles.

    Opinions on Speer Hot-Cor bullets?

    I think he was referencing the last sentence where Alaska typed out 308 win mag. My guess is typo and he meant 300 win mag

    Winter time - Cabin Fever.. what to do

    I have thought heavily on this. My kids can get some scope and trigger time this way and I have everything to reload .223 already. Biggest reason I haven't dead set on this is I don't have much use for it. I have a couple coyote rigs already and the guys I want to shoot with for distance are...

    Federal’s 7mm Backcountry

    I like the regular Fusion's and they use to by my go to for breaking in a barrel or getting a scope close before dialing in on my preferred load. The cost of Fusion's went up and I stopped using them. My intent and desire for the Fusion tipped is just in that round itself though.

    2025 Hunting Season

    Not sure where you are, but here in Central PA a bear is always after a freshly hung cam. A few years back I had a theory it had to do with smells from our hands and out house. I now set my cams up then put them outside for a couple days with a pair of gloves. I wear the gloves, put my cam in...

    Winter time - Cabin Fever.. what to do

    I appreciate the input from all of you guys. I agree, I probably need to dial in on it all. I just got a Browning X bolt in 28 Nosler and considered using it as a donor, but it's new and I haven't done anything with it yet. I also have a 300 Win Mag XCR_II that has some ties to my heart. I...

    Federal’s 7mm Backcountry

    This is good to hear. I asked the owner of my LFS if he can check with his rep on getting me just the bullets. he still hasn't got me an answer, I'm sure it will be the same haha. I've talked to a number of different people over different rifle manufactures and calibers... this Fusion Tipped...

    Federal’s 7mm Backcountry

    That's probably a Christensen thing, not a cartridge thing. My wife has a 300 WSM in a Ridgeline that does the exact same thing no matter how lite I load it or what ammo I use. I've shot roughly a box of ammo in 3 different visits out of a Weatherby Alpine in 7BC with no bolt or primer issues.

    Winter time - Cabin Fever.. what to do

    Hunting season is off and rifle is right around the corner for us. The snow has already started flying and I know once hunting season ends... that cabin fever is going to set in. I want to try a rifle build on an odd ball caliber this year. Problem is, I'm going to be limited on mating the...

    Hand cannon scabbard

    If you have any of Murphy's oil or their saddle soap. You have to work it in over multiple applications, but it works wonders.

    QL Data - 6.5 PRC Dr. Mike, please

    I appreciate the input for sure. When I first started with the 6.5 PRC back in late 19 or early 20 the ELD-X and M ruled the space.. So taht is the route I went, Precision Hunter in ELD-X was what I first used. I hands down hate both of those bullets haha. I've gotten to a point lately that I...

    QL Data - 6.5 PRC Dr. Mike, please

    I use an iPad in my reloading room, mostly because of space. I may have to get a laptop or Microsoft Surface Pro for in there.

    QL Data - 6.5 PRC Dr. Mike, please

    When you have time, can you run it for N160 and N565 as well? Only change is the bullet would be a Nosler Ballistic Tip instead of an AB. What is everyone's thoughts on QL compared to Gordon's Reloading Tool and can you get either on an iPad?
