I have a Load Book, copyright 2004, for 357sig. The Speer data lists their 125gr GD-HP with a starting load of AA#9 being 13.1gr and max being 14.6gr. This starting load is over EVERYONE else's max load and their max load is... well... QuickLoad thinks it would be something like 90,000psi.:eek...

I just got off the phone with Jim Tresmond. He tells me that the first court appearance for their lawsuit will be 930am tomorrow in State Supreme court, Buffalo. Someone in his office will send me an email with the procedures and projected actions/filing so I can update. All the legalese is...

LIVE! from the grinder! :D 10lbs hot sausage and a 5 gallon pail full of canning meat. :)

How's this for Live!

I tried hunting my FILs small parcel today. I've only been there twice before as no other land I hunt is in the area so I don't have any doe tags. Walking in, found this guy at the edge of the field: Wish I'd had the chance to poke a hole in him. I generally don't miss. ;) Did manage to...

Woot Woot!:D She's done! I started this project with a nearly new Savage 11 chambered in 270WSM. I decided a rebarrel was in order and began researching where I'd get it and what cartridge it should be. The cartridge choice was easy. After a little research, I decided that 243Win was...

This is the first weekend of our archery season, I went out on day one but signal prevented my posting. Here's a couple pictures showing my location, you can also google map ITH and match the pictures to get a better look. I'm due north of the runway. If I get a shot, it'll be close. In...

I've run into a couple of curiosities on a Savage 11 conversion project, so I thought I'd expose my ignorance by posing the questions to the experts... The gun is a 2011/12 production Savage 11 chambered in 270WSM. I am converting it to .243AI with a McGowen "Pre-fit" barrel. I've run into the...

Angle? We got angles! :)

A nice buck seen several times on my uncle's trail cam. First picture is about a month ago, second is current. Any guesses on measurements?

Many of you will remember the drama, heartbreak and final victory of my LIVE From the Stand! thread last year. Yesterday, I picked up the subject of that thread and today, got him on the wall!:)

I'm curious if anyone has tried this combo? I don't find any published data but QuickLoad makes predictions that seem incredible. If QL wasn't so dang accurate most of the time I wouldn't think much of it, but it is.:D I'd like to try it but wonder if anyone else has yet.

Let me count the ways!: Here are 342 (yards) ways, that require only "top edge" hold over, that blob used to be a living woodchuck... Oh, and that's not just 342, it's right handed, pulling the trigger with the left hand, shielding eyes from the sun with the right. :D Here is 40-ish (yards)...

Ok, I might be the only gun owner who didn't hear about this ( I doubt it), but in July of last year ATF posted an explanation of their policies regarding assembling and reassembling of firearms such as AR-15s and TC Encore/Contenders between handgun and rifle configurations. It has always...

For anybody who's interested and has the tools, I'm looking to get the length of various .277 bullets as well as their ogive length (base to ogive). Yes, the "bullet", not the whole cartridge. ;)

There is a bill to be considered by the Tompkins County Legislature to allow rifle hunting for deer beginning the 2012 season. If you are a New Yorker who lives and/or hunts Tompkins County, please contact the legislator to voice your support. The bill has been passed by the County Public...

So, I suddenly find myself owning a Savage 11 chambered in 270WSM. Sadly, I find that Lee does not make a collet die for this cartridge... looks like my choices are mainly Forster, Redding or RCBS.... Which one and why?

I have an older model 11-87 which originally had a standard wooden stock. I don't know the age. I've owned it for about 6 years. Was in near new condition when I bought it. I have changed the stock to the new(er) Shurshot camo stock and had a trigger job done by a guy recommended by Randy...
