    HORNADY 375 RUGER

    Since I’m not reloading for the time being I’m starting to stockpile factory ammo for the 375 Ruger and wanted to get some opinions. As I’m moving to Alaska this summer I want to take some factory ammunition with me. Here’s what I’m thinking and I’d like to see if y’all concur. 9 Boxes 270...

    Mossberg 590

    Was perusing Gunjoker and saw this. Maybe I need to get this and add a 28” barrel for things that fly through the air? I’ve already got a Remington 870 set up for defensive use with slugs. https://www.mossberg.com/590-thunder-ranch.html Vince

    375 Ruger

    I’m hoping someone from Nosler reads this and they introduce a 375 Ruger load. I’d love to see a 375 Ruger ballistic tip for antelope and deer. Since the 375 Ruger, and H&H, are so versatile I’d like to see more options for those of us not set up to reload. I used to reload but now that I’m...

    Pondering My .338 Win Mag

    As I’ve already posted elsewhere I’m planning on moving to Anchorage around July. I’m wondering what to do about my favorite rifle. I live in the desert. It’s hot and dry so I’m unaccustomed to this thing called rain. My environment is very good for blued guns. Now with all that said my...

    Another Beretta

    Got a Beretta M9A4 G FDE coming next week. I never much cared for Berettas but you can say I’ve become a fan. I’m planning to put a red dot on this one. I’ve really started to like the DA/SA. I guess I’m just a little behind the times. These DA/SA guns were all the rage thirty years ago. I’ll...

    Clothing For Alaska

    Since many of you have been to Alaska and the Yukon I’m looking for advice on clothing and gear that I should buy here in the lower 48 before I move. Thinking I’ll move to Anchorage first and then see where I want to live after a couple years of learning the state. Any help with gear and...

    What happened to Bill? He lived for elk hunting but I haven’t seen him post. IIRC he worked for the Forest Service. Vince

    Moving

    I’m not sure where to put this but I know quite a few folks here have spent a lot of time in Alaska and since it’s not just travel or hunting related I thought I’d put it here. I’m considering taking a job in Alaska and was wondering if anyone had and tips, tricks, advice they care to share...

    Jeep Test

    Took the Jeep down to the Phoenix area yesterday for a shop to inspect my lift. That’s a three hour drive for me. I had it out of alignment and the caster was way off. It was taking me forty acres to turn to the right. Now it turns like it used to and I’m as happy as a kid getting a new puppy...

    Still Think This Is A Free Country ?

    Here we go boys and girls. The IRS is out to kill Americans so they can steal our money. And people wonder why I don’t support this country in it’s current form. 87,000 new professional thieves and murderers being hired under President Brandon.

    S&W 4013

    Picked up my first third generation S&W bottom feeder today. I’ve shot a few and always liked them but never got around to buying one. Eventually I’d like to find the following third generation auto loaders: 4006, 1006, 1013, 4506, and 4513. Looking like my DA/SA collection will be growing...

    IS IT CHEATING OR AN OPEN RELATIONSHIP

    If you have a primary firearm is it considered cheating to have relationships with other firearms? I’ll bet y’all thought this topic was going to be about something else. 🤣😂🤣😂 Vince

    Beretta 96A1

    Just ordered a Beretta 96A1 off Gunbroker. I’ll post pictures when I pick it up. Sold a bunch of 40 S&W ammo I had taking up space and still have half a pallet. Decided I wanted to give the DA/SA a real go and learn it. Might be an older action mechanism but I still prefer my guns to be made...

    New Old Stock

    Got a lead on some Federal 180 Ballistic Tip rounds in 338 Win Mag. How about this for northern whitetail? I’ve never used this round and wondering, given the .338’s reputation for toughness, how frangible this round is. Also, shoulder or behind the shoulder? The one time I used a ballistic...

    Federal 180 Grain TSX 338 Win Mag

    Looking at maybe using this on northern whitetail. Anyone have experience with this bullet? I’m thinking shoulder shots to break them down and put them down quickly. What do y’all think? Thank you in advance and I look forward to reading your replies. Vince

    More Wrangler Updates

    Got the locking hood latches on and the rear bumper. I’m really liking the minimalist look of the rear bumper.
