We are so grateful for the prayers we received from this group, from all of us, thank you. During May my son in law was able to enter a clinical trial in Bethesda Maryland. Initial reports were favorable but the treatment was pretty brutal. Along the way our daughter would call with positive...

I’m only pushing the envelope with two cartridges, the 257 Roberts and the 275 Rigby, (7x57). Both are very old cartridges loaded to modest pressure. Both are responding well to boosting the pressure envelope a bit over 60 k. Both are Ruger #1 rifles with increadibly strong actions. Both have...

I need to do just that. In the near future I want to rebarrel it to a 24 inch; AI and a little faster twist. That will give me a little more utility.

Pulled my fire fighting pump out of the creek. There is no water. Second creek went dry today.

Thankyou Dr Mike.

Good intel thankyou

I was at 2950 with 39gr. Not opposed to trickling in a little more powder using the #1 but want to see what the pressure looks like. Nosler doesn’t show Varget in the AI data. I’ve been able to get to at least stating loads for the AI data without pressure signs using other powders like H380...

could I please get a QL for : 257 Roberts 100 gr Ballistic tip 2.932 coal 22 inch barrel Ruger #1 Varget 60K on pressure. Nosler +p brass Thank you. I'll modify to 62k if you don't mind👍

A couple maybe three years ago when we couldn’t find CCI or any other primers our local gun store got a shipment of CCI large rifle in. I bought a case and recently started using them. Getting a nearly scientific failure rate of 5%. I’ve used 300 of these primers and I have right at 15...

Excellent. I’ve long believed .284 is the sweet spot for North American hunting. Actually pretty much anywhere with just a few exceptions. Looking forward to your reports from the field.

Smoke is real bad again tonight, two of my siblings are on evacuations. One brother just bought a five acre piece, it's now a cleared lot. Fire is moving away from the other brothers. Pretty stinky smoke here. Be nice if the wind shifted.

As of last night there are 143 active fires in Oregon with 478,000 acres burned. The worst of these fires were started by lightning a week ago. For us, so far, it’s just the smoke. There was a point yesterday I couldn’t see a green house at my daughters, 250 yards away because of the smoke. We...

Less than 1/2 mile visibility tonight. Never seen it so smoky, never seen this much of Oregon burning this early! Catherine has been activated on search and rescue for a fire that they expect to blow up overnight.

That is as close to shooting a deer mine has been. I need to change that.

I think we can make a deal. I'm moving cattle this evening, I'll check in the morning, I'm sure I've a couple boxes.

Which 7mm do you have for trade?

Nope, it’s just like using round up or 24d. Sprays. Biggest error people make, if 2 oz per gallon works 4 oz per gallon will work more better. Fact is if you do the “FASTER’ method you kill the top, see results in 24 hours kind of thing. You don’t kill the root. Run the “slower” method you...

I’ve hunted elk every year but one since 1967. We’ve had at least one, more often three or so 7mm Rm. in camp every year. Those 7s have put a hell of a lot of elk on the ground. I think the 150s will work fine but my elk associates always seemed to be shooting 160s. Pretty sure that’s what I...

Three days ago there were maybe a dozen fires burning in Oregon. This morning I tried to count, best estimate is 70 to 80 fires started in the last 48 to 72 hours. Some are small, standard lightning strikes that will be monitored for the time being. Others have blown up have some potential to...

I am feeling really bad about my Douglas barrel right now. I am stymied.
