In working up loads for a 222 Remington the third trip to the range higher velocities started showing up. The Caldwell chrony was set up as near to level and aligned straight between muzzle and the target as this old geezer could make it. One of the loads is plenty accurate for prairie dogs, but...

Until a few weeks ago, the forum display was consistently easy to view on my phone. Something changed, and presently there are only a couple of forums presented that way. Most are displayed in a desk top format, which is really unhandy for viewing on this phone. I searched the faq, user control...

I have been searching for Nosler 120 gr. Ballistic Tip bullets for my 6.5 CM. Finally in desperation I tried Red River Reloading, because Ammoseek indicated they were in stock. I placed an order and 5 days later my bullets arrived on my doorstep. I highly recommend shopping their website if you...

Keep checking the online vendors, and occasionally you get lucky. Sitting in the recliner after a tooth exteaction and checked Powder Valley...!! They had CCI so I added to the cart, tried to order two bricks but limited to one. Completed the order. Called my nephew and told him to hurry. He...

best defense armory and range They sell reloading supplies online. I used Google foo and they seem legit. However, providing credit card numbers to an obscure vendor isn't something to dive into for me. Any opinions are welcome. And yes, they have Winchester number 41 primers in stock. :D

I have recently purchased scopes that have Hash marks on the reticle. These "additions" are essentially useless because on the units I have they are only valid at the highest power magnification. As well, there are no obvious indicators of the true center of the cross hairs, except on a Burris...

"A man who intervened in a shooting that killed a police officer near Denver was shot and killed by a responding officer while holding the suspect’s AR-15, police said Friday. Johnny Hurley, who has been described by police as a hero who prevented further bloodshed, shot suspect Ronald Troyke...

I called the local Scheels, a person in reloading said there are small rifle and small pistol primers. It too 12 minutes to high tail it out there and haul my fat rear end up the escalator and...dang...the small rifle primers were gone. Welp, next time. There were probably 6000 small pistol...

I finally got around to trying Staball 6.5 for load development in 243 Winchester. The bullet was 100 gr. Hornady BTSP. Load data was Hodgdon and the brass is Winchester and primers WLR. The test loads were in the truck for a couple days, so the rounds were fairly cool, maybe 45 degrees. It was...

I requested a notification when Remington small rifle primers became available at Midwayusa.com. Got this in my email today:

I have a couple Savage rifles chambered in .204 Ruger. After 800 rounds max., there has been a problem removing copper from the rifling (not new, ever since the early round count). The barrel in the picture is a Criterion barrel, cleaned with Hoppes no. 9, then with Hoppes Bench Rest left in...

These two 9mm cases were in some range brass. Has anybody seen these kinds of cases? It would be interesting to know where they came from and why they are configured the way they are.

I have a rifle with a nice laminate stock that I accidently struck with a wrench and it is marred with a dent. Can finished laminate be steamed to raise the dent, with a wet cotton cloth and a steam iron? I am sceptical this will be productive, since the wood is finished. Any experince or tips...

I have been "window shopping" in a sense, trying to find a decent holster for open carry of a snubby Taurus in the great outdoor when hunting or target shooting on public lands. Simply Rugged has a "silver dollar" pancake that looks very good for my application. Then I found Braids Holsters and...

I have a relative that owns some farm land in Nebraska in the Mule Deer Conservation Area. The mule deer are chomping his corn crop all summer and fall, plus they like to eat his trees and tear them up. So he invited me to do a hunt this year, and so beings I love to hunt, it was a no brainer...

I took a shirt tail relative mule deer hunting. He had wanted to do a Colorado muley hunt for a long time, and so I agreed to help him. He is from out of state and lives a long way from here so it was a costly adventure for him. He has hunted deer a lot more than me, but always whitetail, so he...

Dang, I can't wait! The 243 is sighted in waiting to go try and take down a tasty goat for burritos and chili next winter. Hope it cools off about 30 degrees daytime temps. What hunting seasons y'all are looking forward to??
