    International Air Travel with Firearms and Ammunition

    For those of you who have traveled internationally to hunt, what do you use for a rifle case and ammunition case? I’ve got a Pelican 1750 rifle case that has some air miles. I actually watched a baggage handler toss it 10-12’ up the conveyor track from the comfort of my window seat. Fortunately...

    What's your side hustle?

    I retired 3 1/2 years ago. I put a lot of time into getting the brush management/invasive species eradication on our property. Got it finished this spring. Now my side hustle is hanging out with Mrs JD338. It’s not a bad gig. 😉 JD338

    Chronograph

    I had the same issue setting up my Ohler 35 at the gun club. Several times I was asked by a fellow member if they could shoot a few rounds through it. The answer was always no. One guy was persistent and I told him that if he hit a sky screen he just bought it. Since then, we now have our own...

    Loading Nosler 100 grain BTSP in .257 Roberts

    I was lucky to find mine NIB at a fair price in the mid 90’s. It’s a great rifle and very accurate. JD338

    Back in the 1990's

    I had the same rifle. Unfortunately I sold mine and bought an online muzzleloader. Yours looks fantastic! Best of luck this fall. JD338

    7mm RM/150 grain Partition for elk?

    Your 7mm Rem Mag is perfect for elk hunting. The 150 gr PT will certainly do the job but I think the 160 gr PT or AB would be a better choice. As already mentioned by seasoned elk hunters, they are big tough animals and ensuring that your bullet reaches the vitals will only increase your odds...

    Sitting in the shade.

    96* and high humidity here today. Too hot to walk or do much of anything outside again today. Got brass prepped today for the 375, 338 RUM and 308. Yesterday I prepped and loaded 50 rounds of 6.5 RPM. Once it cools down a bit I’ll get the flail mower on the tractor 3 point and start cutting the...

    35 remington whitetail country

    The Whitetail line has been huge for Nosler. They are adding additional cartridges and bullet weights to this product line. I would think they will be updating their website sometime soon. JD338

    What is "reasonable" accuracy for a hunting rifle?

    I’d look at the 165-168 gr class of bullets. 😉 How’s the recoil for you? Without proper fit, recoil can become an uncomfortable experience. Adding a Pachmyer Decelerator Magnum recoil pad can make a big difference in felt recoil. I helped a neighbor buddy set up his M700 BDL 30-06 for shooting...

    What is "reasonable" accuracy for a hunting rifle?

    I would consider testing a lighter weight bullet after confirming that the mounts and rings are torqued down to proper specs. JD338
