    Ruger M77 .25-06 success (Nosler 110 Gr. Accubond with 59.2 Gr. Magnum MV 3169 f/s average

    Welcome! It looks like that load really works well for you. Have you used that load to take anything else?

    7 re mag and 150 g bullets

    I'm shooting 154 gr, not 150s. I found IMR4350 to be a good powder with them.

    New camp/Truck rifle

    I have a 96/44 also. I used it to take a 146 class whitetail at 153 yards on the marsh. I didn't drop in its tracks, but only went about 80 yards. It was before I had started handloading for .44 Rem Mag, and was using 240 gr Winchester ammunition that was really meant for a handgun. For some...

    what credit card ?

    It would be surprising that Cabela's and Bass Pro would be associated with a card company that is anti-gun.

    what credit card ?

    I have the Capital One/ Cabela's card and have not had an issue with it getting denied. I do occasionally receive a text from them , if I've made a large purchase. On another issue with using cards are restaurants that add 3- 3.5% to the tab for using it. For what they're charging for what I see...

    35 whelen

    Reloader 15 with 225 grain SGK. My second choice for powder is H4895.

    Well I did it...

    That is a great rifle, and I'm looking forward to hear how it shoots. The 6.5X55 is an ideal white tail cartridge, but it can do so much more.

    35 Caliber bullets Vs. Bear

    The Sierra 225 gr with Reloader 17 has been a match made in heaven for my son's Remington 7600 chambered in 35 Whelen.

    35 Caliber bullets Vs. Bear

    For me, a 200 gr is plenty. But if you want to go heavier, that is fine too.

    Sauer 202 6.5x55

    That is a find worth having!

    New custom 25-06

    Nice looking and well planned. I'm thinking it will be a shooter.

    Moly and WS2 Bullet Coatings Useless?

    They may increase friction, but when I was shooting moly coated bullets they seemed to reduce copper fouling. The ones that I was shooting became unavailable, so I moved away from the moly.

    Loading Nosler 100 grain BTSP in .257 Roberts

    My .257 Roberts was chambered in a Remington model 722, which is a short action. I seated my bullets to a OAL of .010" off the end of the magazine box. This insured that they would feed and they were still well off the lands. I've always been under the belief that published COAL is based on some...

    Forester Co Ax press

    I purchased my Co-Ax (Bonanza) press in 1965. Forster later acquired them. This press has been used to load tens of thousands of rounds and still loads extremely accurate ammunition (no signs of any play). Forster continues to support my original press and has incorporated several upgrades to it...

    I laughed a Little Too Hard. Relatable

    It's funny as long as you didn't get hurt. I'm 74 years old I gave my climber to a young neighbor last fall. He had been using his dad's and was going to buy one. It was time for me to let it go.

    22-250 brass not able to salvage

    This isn't the quality that I would expect from Nosler.

    Grandpa's Old Rifle

    Great story and congratulations on a very nice buck. I remember my father having three deer rifles in my lifetime, a Remington model 722 in .257 Roberts, a Remington model 760 in 30-06 (most of my lifetime), and a Remington model 700 Mountain Rifle in .280 for the last few years that he hunted...

    Let me see a show of hands of the Trap Shooters on our forum.

    I love shooting trap, skeet and an occasional round of 5-stand. The range is a half mile from my home so it is a weekly thing.

    Which optic sights do you use on your pistols?

    I have a scope on my .41 magnum but other than that nothing on my other pistols. I've been thinking about adding something to my S&W Shield Performance Center, but not sure what yet. Since this is an early Shield the slide would have to be milled.
