You both look very happy. Congratulations!

Now that you've fireformed that brass in your rifle try loading with it again to see if the problem is corrected. You should be able to see if primers are seated properly and are not protruding. You could purchase a box of factory ammo to verify that it isn't a rifle problem. If you really want...

We can debate which is better but truthfully I don't think a deer is going to know the difference.

I'm not sure I will be around yet but the day is coming when the only bullets that you will be allowed to hunt with are Mono's. With the introduction of steel shot target loads for shotguns, I think the writing is on the wall for the future of lead shot too.

270 or 280 for the game they were intended they are hard to beat. I have a Remington 700 Mountain Rifle in 280. Loaded with 140s over 55.5 grains of IMR-4350 it has done everything I've asked in good fashion.

When it comes to a reliable pump shotgun the Remington 870 Wingmaster can't be beat! If I could only own one gun that might be it!

I currently have a Remington 1100 20LT that I love for grouse and to occasionally shoot a round of skeet. But when I was younger a had a Remington 870 20ga magnum that I used for everything (grouse, pheasant, ducks, geese, trap, and skeet). In those days there weren't Rem-Choke barrels, so I had...

I've never tried Berger myself, but did load the 190 gr VLD Hunting bullet for a friend's 300 Win Mag (that was the bullet wanted). He was very happy with how they performed on elk. I wasn't happy with having to seat them .180+" off the lands to get them to feed through his magazine. For me, a...

I'm looking forward to reading your follow-up post after the hunt. I hope it is everything you are anticipating that it will be.

For me, it would be a 6.5x55 followed closely by a 7x57.

I agree, RCBS makes great products and supports them as well or better than many of the other companies in the shooting industry. Walker being one of the worst with no support for any product out of warranty. Could not even provide a replacement battery cover, which now makes a expensive set of...

At 75 I'm with Fotis when it comes to open sights. It's just gets hard to focus on the rear front and target and not have something be fuzzy. When it comes to Iron sights I prefer a good receiver sight on the rear. I like to use 50 yard pistol targets with a 2" orange dot added to make the...

I had looked at the LS before I bought my Kabota. It wasn't the machine that pushed me to Kabota, it was the reviews of the LS dealer. They were terrible about service after the sale. So far I'm happy with B2601, which is a compact unit. It has been able to do everything that I've needed.

Very nice! What was the distance and what was the load?

You can't go wrong choosing a Whelen and there is not much that you can not harvest with it. My son shoots a Whelen. I built a 33-06 Ackley and If I had a do over it would be a Whelen.

Personally, I don't need another over priced niche powder. I just want what is in their current line to be readily available and the same with the other powder manufacturers.

Perfect!! My son and grandson (4 yo) did some scouting after the rain quit yesterday morning. We saw 34 birds, 13 toms, 2 jakes, and bearded hen. Now if we can find them again when our season opens on Wednesday!

I'm so sorry to read this and you have our sympathy. I've always said that parents should not out live their children.

I don't really need anything new, but I picked up a T/C ProHunter frame fairly cheap so now? By the time I have a trigger job, maybe add a forend hanger, Cerakote the frame, buy a barrel, and fit it with new optics it isn't a cheap rifle. I could have bought another #1!

My Remington model 722 "Bob" is now rechambered to .257 Roberts Ackley Improved with a 40 degree shoulder. Since it was rechambered it has the original 1:10 twist. I've been shooting Speer 120 gr, but have decided to give the 115 gr NPT a try. Since the 722 is a short action I need to watch...
