    243 Winchester again

    I bought back the last 243 Winchester I had owned previously. It is a Husqvarna. I had bought it from my deceased friend Ron's wife couple years after his passing. Killed three deer, Grandsons Brandon and Landon got their first deer with it. Friend Scott he wanted it so I like a dummy sold it...

    Quickload request for my new to me Cooper

    Congratulations on your beautiful rifle. Not sure how it will be in felt recoil for you but maybe try going to lesser weight bullet such as 150 or 165 grain. Know some that use those weights in the 300 Win Mag.

    Big game oddities?

    Over the years I have seen a few of the mixed colored deer and one definite albino but none while hunting.

    Why horizontal stringing? 30-06 with high BC bullets

    You changed several variables it seems. My guess is the bipod rest setup and possible primer change. Go back to what your previous load and rest setup was and see if your groups go back to the same size as before.

    A short story from this morning's turkey pursuit...

    Might not work on this gobbler since he was spoked but get in a different part of his zone or someplace where you know other gobblers will search thru and set up a decoy or two, make a couple of calls after good daylight then be silent. Don't call but once or twice about every 40 minutes. Think...

    Why is it.......

    I have seen the shelfs stocked this way and do pick the freshest milk dates. I see people pick the back items without looking at dates. Guess they just know from experience or maybe it just speaks to them.

    Why is it.......

    Why is it that when men go to the grocery store, we get the first item on the shelf and women have to look over everyone then get the third one back? Asking for a friend:unsure:

    I need IMMEDIATE HELP with my 336

    If you are using a different lot or brand of brass that would be what I looked at first. Easy to have that small shoulder pushed back too far on a 35 Rem. This will allow the case to bounce forward on impact of the firing pin causing light strikes. Also, if the primers are sticking up above the...

    45 ACP small primer bass

    Small primer 45acp brass has been around for a few years now. Different resons for it but it does not seem to be an issue as far as reloading for it. I was given some as you were and decided to try it out using the same powder and bullet but with a small primer. The group size was about the...

    280 Rem Loaded to 270 win Pressure

    Not trying to be a wise guy but you pretty much answered your own question with your last paragraph. Scotty gave you good advice to reference but doing as you said will let you know what your rifle will like and tolerate. Case in point. I've been doing the same thing with my Tikka 6.5x55 using...
