    Has anyone heard from April/Europe, Cheyenne, or Jamilia?

    Has anyone heard from the ladies? It looks like April hasn't posted since last August. I didn't check into Cheyenne or Jamilia's post. I miss their unique input.

    Iguana hunting 2023

    The family made the long trek back to Puerto Rico for some iguana hunting this week. My dad, my boys and myself managed to slay a few tree dragons with .25 cal airguns. The picture with the dozer had 57 in it. We failed to collect probably 40 more for one reason or another that day. The picture...

    .40 cal muzzleloader groups from this morning

    I've been struggling with this muzzleloader for a nearly a week before I noticed the scope had slipped in the rings. So I went to Sportsman's and bought 2 sets of rings and remounted my Nightforce NXS 5.5x22. I took it out this am and shot these two groups at 100yds with 75grs of IMR 4166 and...

    Anybody hunt iguanas in Puerto Rico?

    We are headed there next month for a family vacation and I'm going to take my boys iguana hunting. It's done with air rifles so the boys will be able to shoot one no problem even though they are only 6 and 7. I have to compromise with the wife because she loves the beach and I could care less if...

    My 2018 AK moose hunt

    My hunting buddy and I drew for a fairly hard to draw AK moose tag this year. We flew in last year and it appeared the wolves ran almost all of the moose off before we got there (we heard them numerous times during our trip) so we were hoping for better results this year. We flew up the night of...

    The first day on our Lanai axis deer hunt was a success.

    My buddy shot the buck and I followed up with a doe. We were done by 7am. We had lunch in town after we got some more ice and checked out another part of the island this evening but saw mostly mouflon sheep. Tomorrow we will hunt the same side we hunted this morning. I have a buck tags and my...

    Can someone run a QL for a 458 Lott please

    I have some of the 300gr Nosler Ballistic Tip round nose bullets for the 45-70 I want to run for testing brakes. It's a 26" barrel. Thanks in advance.

    Off to AK moose hunting tomorrow

    Tomorrow at 5:56PM my hunting buddy, his brother and myself head to AK for a fly in moose hunt. My buddy and his brother went to school with a guy that lives up there and luckily he has done most of the planning. He and his hunting buddy are coming with us also but I have the feeling they would...

    Quickload request for 300wm with 180AB's at Sammi mag length

    I'm trying to get a load worked up for a friend going moose hunting with me next week and hopefully I can improve on his existing factory ammo. Thanks.

    My buddies Proof barreled Remington

    I have a buddy who is a plumber and my septic system went out so we did some horse trading. He wanted a 5R Remington he had rebarreled with a Proof carbon fiber barrel and put back in a Christensen stock he had plus do some work on a Christensen rifle he had and I needed to hook up to the city...

    Quickload request for 6.5 SAUM

    If someone doesn't mind I'd like to see the best powders for 147 ELD-M's in a 24 and 26" barrel 6.5 SAUM. I might build one with a longer throat and try N-570 if it shows the highest velocity like I'm assuming it will.

    Shot my 6.5 Creedmoor with 147 ELD-M's this morning

    I originally wanted to use Lapua brass in this rifle and tried it with R-26 and 147's a few weekends ago. My large firing pin was piercing the small rifle primers. So I ordered some Petersons brass with the large rifle primers. The Petersons brass is heavier and has less capacity then the Lapua...

    Quickload request for 300RUM please

    If someone can run a 300RUM with a 26" barrel using 208 Amax's and R-33 I would appreciate it.

    Can Quickloads predict the pressure at the muzzle as well?

    For those of you that have Quickloads can it predict the pressure at the muzzle as well as the chamber pressures? The reason I ask is I want to do some muzzle brake flow modeling but unless I build a pressure gauge into something that screws onto the end of the barrel to actually measure it I...

    OK another Quickload request

    A 375 Ruger with a 300gr Cutting Edge bullet loaded to 3.73" OAL in a 24 and 26" barrel. I'm trying to decide what barrel length to go with and to see if 2700fps is possible. I could use one for a 300RUM with 208 Amax's too. Thanks in advance.

    Quickload request for 450 Bushmaster and 300gr Hornady SST's

    I have a bunch of R-7 but do have some Lil Gun as well. From what I read Lil Gun seems to be the go to powder but if someone can do a QL for me that would be nice to see. This is in a bolt action not a AR platform.

    Quickload request for a 300wm please

    If someone has the time I could use a Quickload request for a 300wm using 210 Bergers and 208 Amax's. I'm probably going to use R-25 as I have a bunch and don't use it for anything else but the print out with all the powders would be best. The COAL with 210's is 3.710". Thanks Nathan

    If you were going to build a rifle for Africa what caliber?

    And what action would you use? Not some exotic action but like a CRF M-70, CZ550, Montana, etc. With Cape Buff on the menu would you do .375, 416, 458, 477? I've been thinking more about building up a really nice wood stocked blued rifle to take back to Africa some day. I might be a pipe dream...

    Elk #2 takes a dirt nap

    Well I took my buddy from Buckley, WA out shooting and then hunting this last week. He was banging steel at 500 and 625yds before we left on Wednesday to go elk hunting. We looked around a bit on Wednesday night and Thursday morning in the higher elevations but we weren't seeing much sign. Later...

    My 2016 season has started off well

    My hunting buddy and I drew for a fairly hard to draw rifle elk hunt this year (1 in 6 odds). It opened on the 1st and despite every effort to get out of town on the 28th (which was my birthday) I didn't get to leave until late the 29th. That only left the 30th for scouting as I got up there...
