Anybody have any experience with the Sig Mosquito? I just picked one up a few days ago. I've read a lot about them and they seem to have feeding problems, especially with bulk ammo. I haven't shot mine yet. Hopefully it performs ok.

Hey guys...
I'm looking for some reloading info on the 6.5 WSM. Anybody around here shooting one? I'm specifically looking for info with 130 & 140 gr. bullets.
Thanks,
BP
The draw results for elk and antelope in Arizona were released yesterday. I was lucky enough to draw a rifle bull tag in unit 6A (just south of Flagstaff) in October. I was drawn with my dad and a friend. I'll be using my 300 WBY with 200 gr. Accubonds at 3000 fps for this hunt. I had the same...
Hey guys...
I just bought a new LCP. Anybody have any experience with them? I have larger revolvers and autos, but I wanted something smaller and more carryable. I'm wondering what you think about carrying it with a round in the chamber in your pocket. I have been told that it is safe, but...
I took this Coues whitetail in northern Arizona yesterday. It is the first animal with my 280 AI. 348 yards. 140 gr Accubond @ 3200+fps. It's a pretty good buck by coues deer standards. My dad was with me making it that much better.

Last week I shot my 280 AI at a piece of 5/8" steel plate at 300 yards. My dad also shot his 280 Rem. at the same plate, same distance. Both rifles shot 140 grain Accubonds. My 280 AI pushes them at 3225 and his 280 Rem. at 3000 (both chrongraphed). I was surprised to see that the 280 AI...
My long time 280 AI project is finally finished. I have been intrigued by the 280 AI for a long time. In my mind it is close to perfect for deer/antelope. After buying the donor rifle 3 years ago, my wife gave me a 26" stainless Shilen barrel for Christmas this past year. I bought the rest...
I am in the process of a new rifle. I have been planning to build a 280 AI for a while. I bought a stainless model 700 ADL a year or so ago to build on, but it keeps getting put on the back burner. It just got moved to the front burner. My wife surprised me with a Shilen barrel for Christmas...
It has been a great hunting season for my dad and I. I shot an 83" antelope and a 330ish bull elk. My dad shot a nice 5x5 bull. I shot my antelope at 422 yards with a Ruger No. 1 280 Rem. with 140 gr. Accubonds. My load is 57 gr. of RL 19. This load shoots 3050 fps from my rifle. We saw a...
The draw results for Arizona were released this week for elk and antelope. I was lucky enough to draw a rifle tag for both. You boys in WY would never understand, but antelope tags are hard to come by in this state. There are only about 350 tags for the whole state. Most units have about 1-2%...
Hey guys,
Still kind of new here. I thought I would share my hunting trip from the past weekend. My dad and I spent the weekend hunting Coues Whitetail in northern AZ. If you aren't familiar with coues deer, they are only found in AZ, NM and Mexico. They are much smaller than eastern...
I've been trying to locate a Ruger #1 in a 280 Remington. Does anyone have any good ideas on where to find one? I've been checking Gunbroker.com and Gunsamerica.com. They don't seem to be very common. I don't think Ruger is currently making a 280 #1.
Thanks,
BP
