    Arizona 26

    Don, If you haven’t already done so you should check out the Douglas Spring Trail. If you can do that one you can do anything in the Grand Canyon. Continuing to pray for your Son In Law and family. Vince

    Another leather project

    You are doing very good work and I love to see how you are evolving as a leather bender. Leather Bender is what I call a craftsman that tools leather and you sir are doing very fine work. Vince

    Reloading Help 25-06

    The first rifle I loaded for was a 25-06. Only thing I could get to shoot sub MOA was the Hornady 87 grain bullets. Even getting that bullet to shoot was a chore. I learned to hate working up loads. These days I just buy factory ammo and call it good. Vince

    Daughter knocks it out of the park.

    Since my time is shorter than I thought I’d have, actually I never really figured I’d live this long, I’m disappointed and disgusted with Washington. I’ve lost faith in the ideals that this country was founded on because nobody is really following the Constitution. I predict we will be a...

    Elk bullet in 6.5x55 Swede

    I’m pretty much a one rifle guy. That’s why I use a .338 Win Mag. If it had been a .35 Whelen I wouldn’t have complained. I prefer bigger bullets and versatility. Never been a .30 caliber fan although they work for some people. It really doesn’t matter what your caliber/cartridge is if you...

    Elk bullet in 6.5x55 Swede

    Or you could just go get one rifle to do everything in North America. That’s right, the .338 Win Mag. Enough for moose, grizzlies, elk, and deer. Sheep too if you’re so inclined. Vince

    SHOCKER

    That’s the only good thing about being in Tucson. I know who some of the good doctors are. Just keep me away from teaching hospitals connected to medical schools. I’m not willing to be a practice dummy. Vince

    Elk bullet in 6.5x55 Swede

    Might look at the Norma Oryx bullet but I’d lean towards the Barnes TTSX if it were me. Vince

    New copper tariff???

    I don’t mind paying more for products if the ROI is worth it. For me the ROI is mass deportations, stop our slide into socialism, and a better quality of life for Americans. Vince
