    Sighting fir non-hunting

    While I do not shoot my handguns as much as most people, I have typically shot mostly at 15, 25, and 50 yards, and when I was practicing IDPA, it was varied to each set up by the range master.

    Another question for all us hunters: Favourite method?

    We are blessed to live in beautiful country, that is as diverse as the people and animals that flourish there! We are blessed that we also have the diversity in the game we pursue, that we can practice the different methods that are available to us, and teach us about the animals and the...

    Another question for all us hunters: Favourite method?

    Yes, you see more and more outfitters figuring out how to get disabled and others with verry limited mobility into the field to hunt, even in country with hills and ravines! Very neat and exciting to see these new hunters smile and laugh, not only after a successful hunt, but in just being in...

    My Favorite 45 Revolver

    Back when we were still allowed to buy handguns here in Canada, I did a few searches trying to find a 3 screw BH in 41 Rem Mag over the years, without any luck. Was even willing to have it imported from the States, as I did my NMBH Stainless 4 5/8" in 41 Rem Mag, when I finally located one on...

    Another question for all us hunters: Favourite method?

    When I was in Saskatchewan back in the fall of '91, I got experience deer drives with the people I was staying with. A unique experience! We did get a few whitetails, including one big old bruiser (15 point!).

    "By the book" in search of a "cloverleaf"

    While velocity is nice, I'll take accuracy over velocity any day...but it is nicer when you get both! And no crutter is going to know the difference that it started out 47 fps slower (or is it alot slower than that?)...you'll just get a little more drop at longer distances of 300 yards and beyond.

    .257 Roberts hunters only

    When Nosler brass was first made available, it all came prepped so one did not have to go through thatt process before heading to the primer tool. Today, you must watch as some of their brass is not prepped before packaging, but it usually tells you up front. Take the time to check! IIRC my new...

    Seating depth

    If you have a long throat, you will have more jump to the rifling, and once you have hit max coal for your magazine, you may not be able to see as much improvement from seating depth changes as one would with a chamber with a shorter throat where fine tuning seating depth can show marked...

    entry/mid level binoculars

    If buying a less expensive pair of Leupolds, do yourself a favour and spend a little more to ensure you at least get a pair with the Bak4 prism. Your eyes will thank you after hours of glassing. 10x40 (or 42) are a great binos for glassing mixed terrain. Even when glassing close objects in the...

    What would you do?

    I dropped my box of 284 Win test loads once too...tried weight sorting...too much variance that I could not get 3 of any of 4 different powder charges to be even close in weight to say with certainty, "this is this powder charge". Just pull one at a time and weigh the powder charge to see if...

    Another question for all us hunters: Favourite method?

    Unfortunately I cannot order from Midway as it does give provinces as an option and will not accept our postal (zip) code. Might have to get DrMike to pick me up a couple when he travels Stateside this fall...

    Thanks! I guess his asking price wasn't too high, but definitely at the top end. I think I read somewhere that there were just over 6200 Classics chambered to 257 Roberts in 1982...

    Daydreaming the next rifle build...

    While I hope to achieve the desired weight for this build, I am prepared to accept a scoped rifle of about 1/2 lb more. I believe the stock option is going to be the ticket to desired weight of the scoped rifle package, If I can achieve it. My X Bolt All Weather with the 24" Benchmark 5R SS...

    No apologies necessary. If we didn't have passion for our lifestyles and hunting/shooting/handloading, this forum wouldn't exist and have the quality people we have here keeping it the best, and most civil site on the web! So grateful that they share their knowledge in such a respectful and...

    Taxidermy,costs,and the here after

    Taxidermy costs have risen quite a bit since I had my first good mule deer done almost 30 years ago! but some of those skilled hands can do some amazingly beautiful work! I am getting more European mounts done today, as also like this presentation...but I am really out of room in my smaller...
