    Looking for a new scattergun

    I would also recommend the Franchi Affinity. I don't have the Affinity but have a 720 and it very well made, is a joy to shoot and carry, 20ga with 4 shot is more than sufficient for any duck inside 30 yds. I have dumped a large number of woody's, mallards and teal with it. If you expect...

    Gunstocks Inc. Bedford, IA - Buyer BEWARE!

    I purchased a replacement butt stock for my 1970 1100 in .410 from Gunstocks Inc. Total with shipping was $68.45 I received the stock and I immediately noticed the hole for the Spring Tube was drilled severely off-center causing a bad cast on and it didn't seat correctly on the action. See...

    120 nbt, 7mm-08

    Last November, I took a 130 lb whitetail doe at about 70yds using this bullet over 48g of IMR4007SSC for about 3100 FPS. I was sitting at the bottom of a creek gully. She was above me, up a 20 degree slope. Caught her right behind the point of shoulder broadside. The bullet exited about 6...

    Balvar repair?

    I have a 60's vintage 2.5-8X Balvar which has some very light coating scratches in the objective lens. Does anyone know who could possibly repair this classic?

    338 WM bullet selection.

    jmad, I have had a lot of success with the 200g Nosler BT w/ 73g H4350 set .020' off the lands in my M70 with a BOSS set at 3.4 Unfortunately the 200g was discontinued by Nosler and replaced with the 180g. I have about 100 of the 200g left after that I'm going to be looking at the Combined...

    Powder for the .22-.250

    It's a tad expensive but Vihta Vuori N-150 delivers very consistant results. Here is a group I shot about a month ago. 35.5g under a 50g Hornady V-Max -- .3585" center to center

    .22-250 loads?

    I got this group with 35.5g Vihta Vouri N-150 w/ a 50g Hornady V-max with a 1 in 10 twist barrel. The BT is very close in shape and dimension to the V-max. It's .3585" center to center The thing is my load may not group (or even be safe) in your gun. There are way to many variables, such...

    My first experience with Vihta Vuori Powder

    Well I have 2 pounds of N-150 lying around and decided to work up a load for my 22-250. Using a 50g Hornady V-Max, I varied the charge starting at 35g and working to 37g. Here is the best 5-shot, 100 yard group (35.5g)velocity average 3880fps The target is a 1" diamond (15 per 8.5" x 11"...

    Bulet Pullers & Deformed BullertTips

    Take a little wad of foam rubber and jam it in the bottom of the puller. I did this and the bullets come out pristine. As far as the damaged tips I would reload them then sharpen them. I have had some boogered tips on some loaded rounds and a simple fix is to take a kids pencil sharpener and...

    270 reload over all length

    IMHO 53.5g of IMR4350 is a little stout unless you have a lot of freebore. IMR recommends a max load of 53.2 w/ 140g bullets. H4350 is a little slower but my bullet launcher prefers around 55g H4831. OAL will vary with each rifle as to how they are chambered. I seat my BT 140's .010" off the...
