DrMike, What was your favorite powder with the 200s? I have tried the 200 ELD-H in mine and it just doesn't perform as I'd like. PH

I had a chance at two of the Weatherby pistols about 15-20 years ago. In retrospect, I should have looked harder at them, not realizing how rare and unique they are.

20% off with code RMEF if you buy it. I buy the Elite version (all states) as I visit more than two on a routine basis. It's also great for looking up property owners anywhere. FYI my cell trail cameras have a free app that will map out their location. Yours might too?

I usually gently finger tighten until the adjuster runs into the bushing, then adjust a bit back so that the bushing is slightly loose. It seems to work well for me. As Charlie noted, numbers down is supposed to be better than numbers up.

I would look at a Hammer, or a Barnes TTSX. Both performed admirably on cow elk last week at 285 and 350 yards respectively.

I use the factory loaded 115 BT in my 257 Weatherby and it's extremely accurate. I've taken antelope to 500+ yards with it. You will do fine.

If you're interested, I have a Savage 110 and a Mauser (rebarreled) in 338-06 that I'd sell.

Did you ever do anything with this? I’ve improved mine by doing a full action bedding, and of course with hand loads. Of note, one of my 300s cut the groups in half when I started to use my new suppressor. It's now extremely accurate and would likely make your desired goal.

I have two in 270, and several in other calibers. Dad has one in 270 as well. All 3 shoot very well with factory ammo if you want to use that. One of mine does VERY well with the 117 Hammer Hunter and is superb on deer and antelope. I will note that with a Vanguard I routinely tune the...

I have one that's not quite that old, but a (more) modern staggered-feed stock fit just fine on it. The post-2003 staggered feed ones won't. I don't believe based on what I have read or the ones I own that the design changed enough from 1958-2003 that any stock from that era won't fit.

Is the end result that you are in need of 35 Rem brass?

I've used Signature rings, but they seem to be difficult to obtain consistently. I’ve also occasionally had issues getting them fully snug. If you’ve used them then you probably know what I mean. In addition, I prefer to use them with a double dovetail system, and those too are not always easy...

I have one of those as well, received in a similar manner. As my former FFL was also a police officer he really got a laugh out of it.

I use paper targets that I print, and then staple them to cardboard for a backing. When I get home, I mark the date, rifle, load, velocity, etc, punch them with a 3-ring punch, and put them in a notebook. That makes it easy to follow load development when you pick it up 3 years later. 😁

RL-19 and the 338 Win Mag are meant for each other

I use my RCBS ChareMaster for initial throws (so to speak) then double check them on my Gempro250, which unfortunately is no longer available.

It's been show many times that weighing brass really proves nothing and has no usefulness, especially for the same headstamp brass. As you found, only by checking the actual capacity can you get any useful information.

That article is from 2018, and this isn't a new issue at all. There are a couple of counties in NE MI that have a special TB zone, and have for a long time. https://www.mlive.com/public-interest/2022/02/bovine-tb-testing-of-wild-deer-wraps-up-after-disease-found-at-michigan-cervid-farms.html...

You can add webbing using Krylon Marbelizing Spray, available at Hobby Lobby, Michaels, etc. Be sure to practice with it first and see what spray pattern "your" nozzle has. Also, they spray best if held vertical, not tipped down. You do NOT need to sand it first, just be sure it is clean. I use...
