Technically I haven’t really been reloading all that long, thirteen years? I’ve never annealed any brass. To be honest everything I’ve seen has kinda confused me as to how, how long, when, etc…. Like most things in this regard there are so many ways to do it, and so many arguments about it also...

Sending more prayers for your continued recovery 🙏🏼🙏🏼

Beautiful! Love the walnut and brass combination!

I also have the Athlon Rangecraft. It’s my first and only chronograph, and I like it very much. I’ve never used any other so I can’t comment on what is best, but with Guy’s experience I’ll go with his. It was around the $400ish range if I remember correctly and I paid for it in installments. I...

I get the hometown feeling when visiting this site, and everyone is so willing to help. Plus, the experience that the members here have and the experiences that they share is...

TAC is a very good powder, in my opinion, especially for speed. I use it in my .308, with a 20” barrel, and get 3170 fps ave. Shooting the 130 grain ttsx’s. (50.4 grains of TAC) I think it’s interesting from looking at Dr. Mike’s quickload data 44.7 grains predicted the velocity to be 2946 fps...

I actually just picked up some of these recently as they were on sale for $19 per 50. I was also just looking at loading data for the 165s from Nosler, Hornady and Hodgdons. B.C. for this is .442 S.D. Is .248 This is all based on what I was looking for regarding the use of Varget powder which is...

Beautiful!

I’ve loaded up some of these 140 grain Monoflex bullets to load test for my model 94. Once I get a chance to get to the range I’ll let you all know how it went. I’ve been hearing good things about them, we soon shall see!

I’m not a big guy by any means, and I’ll be 66 this fall. I pretty much only hunt northeast whitetails. I have never hunted Hogs however so I can’t comment on them. My Dad had a Marlin 336 in 35 Rem when we were growing up. Mom gave it to him for a wedding present. So it was bought new in 1958...

I shoot both bullets as well, however not 270, and not Sauer. I load both, and shoot them out of a Tikka 308. The Accubonds, 150 grain, were very easy to develop a load for using Varget. I tried Varget with the 130 grain ttsx and could not get a consistent load. However I did get a very nice...

I’m basically hunting whitetails deer, so my experience is different than most of yours, but I shoot three calibers, 30-30, 308 Win., and 30-06. I can hunt anything in N. America with these three. I’ve throughly enjoyed the African adventures by Vince and Salmonchaser, and others, and I’m...

NBA = Not Basketball At-all.

Thank you so much for sharing your experiences! I’ll never make it to Africa, but I’ve enjoyed both your adventures. The pictures and stories helped make if feel like we were along for the ride. Thanks Men!

I’ve seen a piebald Doe hunting in NC a couple years ago. Had a tag for her, but couldn’t come to pulling the trigger.

I agree with shooting to Accubonds. I have really loved this bullet for hunting and have had nothing but good experiences with it. I’ve taken most of my deer with the 150 grain Accubond either in 30-06 or 308 Win. I’ve been hunting with my 308 mostly, lately, and I’ve taken a Doe, three years...

What a race! From last to first, and at the point of the race where you wouldn’t expect it to happen. Amazing

^^^^ I agree 100%. I tried a barrel mounted peep from Skinner, (who make terrific products) and did not see it as well as my Williams attached to the receiver of my rifle. Now if Skinner would only make a receiver sight for my 94….

Skinner sights are extremely well made, and the company is awesome as well. They will go out of their way to help you and make sure you’re happy with their products. I tried a barrel mounted peep on my 94 and unfortunately I had trouble seeing through it at that distance. The Williams on the...
