    My wife is not gonna be happy!

    I just traded my Ruger 6.5. Then bought a Winchester XPR Sporter in 6.5 Creedmoor. And Ordered a Remington 700 5R Gen 2 in 6.5 Creedmoor..... With a Vortex Strike Eagle 3-18 with the EBR 4 MOA Reticle. I guess it's easier to ask Forgiveness than permission

    Bullet jump to the lands.

    So My Winchester XPR in 300 win mag is a real nice rifle for the money. Problem I seem to be having is that none of my handloads seem to shoot as well as Factory ammunition. I have good ES and SD numbers. And have seated bullets from .030-.075 off of the lands. The Factory ammo I have is .130...

    Hornady Interlock Spire point

    Never done much with these bullets before. But I just picked up 2 boxes of the 129 grain 6.5 mm fot $5 a box! I am probably gonna load them with some H4350, RL 17 or IMR 4451. I figure I should be able to get them between 2850 and 2900. Even at full price these are cheaper than the Sierra...

    So since I found out that I do not have a tear in my rotator cuff. I decided to keep the 300 win mag and start load development for the 200 grain ELDX. I did my ladder test as usual, but loaded an extra round at the top 2 charges and fired them into a dirt pile I made. I kept my Magnetospeed...

    Ruger American Go Wild

    I Traded my used savage 110 Tactical desert today for a NIB Ruger American Go Wild in the same caliber. The Savage was great. Shot well etc. I decided though that I wanted something lighter.. Something that wasn't as difficult to carry if I choose to hunt with it. Also one reason is that I...
