Have fun! I'm only about 25 or 30 miles south of CD.

So sorry for your loss. It's never easy, that's for sure.

The turkey hunting has been pretty bad here in my little corner of Kentucky for about the last 5 years or so. You would go out and sit for several hours in the morning and be lucky to even hear a gobble, much less see one. The last bird I killed was in 2017. Well, maybe we've turned a corner on...

Try the same test with the 124gr Federal HST (non +P). From what I've heard, it's better than the HydraShok. It's what I carry in my Sig P365.

As Guy mentioned, the Hodgdon data tends to be a fair bit warmer than virtually every other source. Personally, my loads for IMR 4198 and 300gr bullets tend to fall in between the "trapdoor" and "lever" loads from Hodgdon, but they are well within or even above the "lever" loads from the other...

IMR 4198 is a very flexible powder in 45-70. I personally load 300gr pills to about 2000 fps for deer.

Not really looking for new bullets, but curious about your results with either the 6.5 140gr Speer GD Bonded or the 130gr Sierra Tipped Game King.

Hypothetically, of course...accuracy is all about barrel harmonics. If you change the physical characteristics of the barrel, the harmonics will definitely be affected. No telling how much.

Meh, don't care. He admitted on the stand, under oath, that he did what he is accused of doing. He can rot as far as I'm concerned, and all his enablers with him. Everybody wants to "drain the swamp" in Washington and ignore the cesspool in their own backyard. The NRA leadership had decades to...

I tried mine out for the first time today, as well. Only about 12-15 shots, but it worked perfectly.

It has to be a total ban or it won't work. If I can't buy a Chevy truck, I can make do with a Ford, Dodge, or Toyota. But if none of those are available to me, then I'm going to be hurting the next time I need to haul something. She concept for guns and ammo.

Actually, I have a better solution to the liberal states and their gun laws. ALL of the weapons and ammunition manufacturers should refuse to sell any of their product to any police department or other government agency in that state. I mean absolutely nothing. No handguns, long guns, duty ammo...

Sorry, not sorry. Tell them to send the bill to Albany. Maybe they can turn it into a potpourri plant or something else politically correct.

I have no comment on the camel culling, but for comparison's sake, pigs didn't ask to be brought to America, either. But they're here, and we can't kill the feral ones fast enough. We trap them, hunt them from the ground, helicopter, and every way possible. Shoot them with rifle, shotgun...
