I have a deep respect for our veterans, past, present and future. Thank you each and everyone.

Looks like your project is coming along quite nicely.

Welcome. Agree with your post. Lots of good folks here. Dan.

Congratulations on your beautiful rifle. Not sure how it will be in felt recoil for you but maybe try going to lesser weight bullet such as 150 or 165 grain. Know some that use those weights in the 300 Win Mag.

Over the years I have seen a few of the mixed colored deer and one definite albino but none while hunting.

You changed several variables it seems. My guess is the bipod rest setup and possible primer change. Go back to what your previous load and rest setup was and see if your groups go back to the same size as before.

Congratulations gentlemen. Keep after them.

Might not work on this gobbler since he was spoked but get in a different part of his zone or someplace where you know other gobblers will search thru and set up a decoy or two, make a couple of calls after good daylight then be silent. Don't call but once or twice about every 40 minutes. Think...

Don't you just love them good days at the range? You certainly had one.

I have seen the shelfs stocked this way and do pick the freshest milk dates. I see people pick the back items without looking at dates. Guess they just know from experience or maybe it just speaks to them.

Why is it that when men go to the grocery store, we get the first item on the shelf and women have to look over everyone then get the third one back? Asking for a friend:unsure:

If you are using a different lot or brand of brass that would be what I looked at first. Easy to have that small shoulder pushed back too far on a 35 Rem. This will allow the case to bounce forward on impact of the firing pin causing light strikes. Also, if the primers are sticking up above the...

Small primer 45acp brass has been around for a few years now. Different resons for it but it does not seem to be an issue as far as reloading for it. I was given some as you were and decided to try it out using the same powder and bullet but with a small primer. The group size was about the...

Have you considered a 35 Whelen:unsure:

Wish you all a safe and happy hunting adventure. Dan.

Not trying to be a wise guy but you pretty much answered your own question with your last paragraph. Scotty gave you good advice to reference but doing as you said will let you know what your rifle will like and tolerate. Case in point. I've been doing the same thing with my Tikka 6.5x55 using...

6.5x55. Limited experience with 7x57 and 8x57, both good rounds.

Nothing wrong with a 20ga for your son or you. Have seen my son drops turkeys at 45-48 yds with TSS loads but the Winchester Long Beard #6 does about as equally well to 40-45 yds. Works closer too:LOL:

Congratulations to you turkey slayers.

Good shooting. IMR4895 one of the old stand bys.
