    A Project that can’t get off the ground

    That is more than disappointing. As for the barrel, depends on where you're ordering from and by which shipper. Personally, I think the USPS and FEDX has gone down the drain. My local post office does a good job but the problems I've had is after it leaves them and starts through their system...

    I have and do use SB6.5 and like the results. Just curious about the HD.

    Winchester Stabal HD

    Would this powder be worth trying in 270 Win say with 140-150gr bullets? Opinions?

    30-06 BAR 18.5" barrel Oryx 180

    Your continued dedication to the process has resulted in improvement for sure. That load shown by the group size would result in deer kills for you all day long.

    Winter time - Cabin Fever.. what to do

    I have been loading shotgun shells the past couple of days. Do it during the winter after deer seasons but got an early start account of looking at hand surgery this winter hopefully. Find out Tuesday Dr appoint with surgeon. Then cataracts find out next month if they will remove them or keep...

    Townsend Whelen’s Best Cartridges List

    The saying "Varity is the spice of life" applies to rifles, reloading and hunting I believe. We all have our favorites as Col Whelen did and like using different ones as we do. It's been fun and interesting to be able to use different ones over the years seeing how different calibers, bullets...

    Flintlock Friday

    The stock was advertised as a 95 % inlet but there was quite a bit of finish in letting to do on the barrel channel and other parts. Swamped barrels carry and balance well. That's why it was really a parts set not a kit so much. When I put the touch hole in, I had to set the barrel back because...

    Flintlock Friday

    15 years ago, I could put them in one hole at 50 yards touch at 75 yards. Now I'm good with minute of deer, waiting to see if they will remove my cataracts.

    Inherited Kentucky longrifle

    The beauty of 3F is that it can be used in calibers over 45 and it doesn't take as much as 2F. I use it my 50 and 54.

    Inherited Kentucky longrifle

    Sorry to hear about your uncle. It is clearly obvious why this flintlock was his prized possession. Like the color. Since you are familiar with cap locks then the loading procedure is the same with the exception of putting powder in the pan. Don't over fill it. With flintlocks stay with black...

    .280 Rem. Mountain Rifle

    Good story of your hunt and good of you to help out your buddy. At least you got to put the load to use on a whitetail which is never a bad thing. Merry Christmas.

    RCBS X Die

    Haven't tried the X die but something I've always wondered about if it was able to do what they advertise. Started reloading with RCBS dies and still use some. Redding gets the nod when purchasing new ones. I have used Hornady dies and had an issue with a set in 243 Win but they corrected it and...
