The last Nikon scopes I bought were about 25 years ago. I bought 3 monarchs and was very pleased with them. At that time, they would go head to head with any glass out there save Schmidt and Bender. In the last 25 year's, I have shot mainly Leupold, Meopta, Nightforce, and as of recent Minox...

Other than Hodgdon and Barnes, any sources of loading data?

I discovered a strange phenomenon yesterday on my range. I was shooting my 257 Roy at 200 yds. 85 gr bonded Norma spire points chronoed at 3800 to 3840 at 10 yds. I was shooting A500 plate. I have shot these plates with 300 win mag, 338 lapua, 7 Rum, 264 win mag, and a host of others. This...

Anyone have experience with them? What accuracy you getting?

Who makes the best case trimmer for rifle cartridges. I finally wore my 30 year old Lyman out. The new Lyman seems like junk compared to the old one. I have a Forster I use for inside ream and trim, but looking for something faster for my non bench rest cartridge prep.

So, what's up with the new 6.5 PRC? Hornaday duplicated the 260 Rem, now they are duplicating the 6.5x284 Norma. I see the point of the Creedmoor was to shoot longer bullets than the 260, but the Norma already shoots the longest bullets on the market.

I am playing with new powders in my 6.5x284 hunting rifle. Lapua brass, 9 1/2 primer, magpro powder. I started load development at 59 gr. No pressure signs. 60, no pressure signs. 61, no pressure signs. 62, no pressure signs, but accuracy went South. 61 was most accurate. So, I headed the other...

Anyone shot one? Opinions? I have nice rifles and safe queens. I am looking for an accurate, dependable rifle to leave on my Polaris Ranger and consequently beat the fool out of.

Anybody shot one? Opinions?

Any first hand experience with their pistols? Any opinions of their pistols? I know their early pistols had problems, but I have heard those were successfully corrected on the current models?

I got to thinking about this today and realized that we have a bunch of hypocrites in the gun industry. We say that armed law abiding citizens deter crime. We get mad at restaurants, hotels, etc. that prohibit concealed carry. We rail about the benefits if concealed carry. MOST gun shops...

Pros and cons of each? Primary use will be concealed carry and keeping in the door pocket of the truck.

Anyone shot one yet? I want one. Wondering if it is truly an improvement over the 3.

I just bought a new 336 Marlin in .35 Remington. The rifle is new production. It has none of the horror issues I have read about in the "Remlin" rifles. I quit shooting lever actions over 20 years ago. I have a Winchester 94 in .30-30 that shoots about 3" at 100. A 94 7-30 Waters that shoots...

I grew up believing faster was better, bigger and faster was even better, Weatherby was king, and I was an adult kid at Christmas when the line of RUM cartridges came out. My first deer rifle was a 7 Rem mag. My second one was a .35 Whelen. and now I mostly hunt with a 7 RUM. My son just...

Tonight on Mythbusters, they tried to shoot through a 30 gal aquarium into a test dummy using a 12ga. shotgun. They fired Bird shot, Buck shot, and Slug. Amazingly, none of the rounds struck the test dummy. The buck did not even break the back glass of the aquarium. The concussion wave of...

I am thinking about purchasing one. Anyone have any experience with them? I would use it for plinking, occasional whitetail and hog hunting. Accuracy? Quality?

Have any of you shot any .308 Win. 150 gr Fusion ammo? I bought 8 boxes of it the other day to use hog hunting. I was running low on my typical hunting ammo (168 match), did not want to make the time to load more, and did not want to shoot high dollar ammo at hogs. Anyway, I went to my range...

Any of yall watch the show? Those are the worst bunch of hunters I have ever seen in my life. They can not hit anything. I would feel safer if they were shooting at me than shooting at something 15 feet from me. They give hunters a bad name. In the last episode one of them said "lets all 3...

Anyone have one or had one? I am thinking about building one, but have not found good info on the cartridge. Will it replicate the 350 Norma mag?
