    30-06 and N555

    This afternoon being too wet to do anything else , I dug out the 30-06. I decided to try out the 220gr RN bullets I got and some 180gr AB Grade C. Input my data into QL for some baseline with N555 and went from there. My Winchester brass is a little large on internal capacity making N555 ideal...

    New Scope on the 375 Wby

    I got an extremely good deal off of Amazon on a Crimson Trace Hardline Pro 5-20x. Just like my Vortex scopes I’ve have good luck with CT also. This one is more basic no lit reticle also is in SFP. Turrets are also capped , nothing fancy with this one to go wrong. CT states high caliber recoil...

    Turkey Hunting

    I have 2+ weeks until my week of turkey season starts, first time for this. I like to hear how others go about their hunt. I will be using my trusty Wicked Ridge X-bow and plan on setting up 2 blinds in different locations. A couple of decoys and Howie’s call is where I’m at right now. The one...

    TiteGroup

    I’ve been tasked with another project for my brother. He recently picked up a 357 Magnum in a H&R single. The powder he got is TiteGroup. Last night I watch a video with Guy on UR using TiteGroup in multiple cartridges. Has anyone else used this combo?

    Death of My Arken

    Last Friday I went out to try out some 260gr Etips I loaded last fall. The last couple of times out, I had to back down the side focus to get a clear target. The first group was an 1 1/2” and the 3rd shot I couldn’t make out the target clearly. So adjusted the side focus again. Second shot on...

    Burris Eliminator 6

    https://www.burrisoptics.com/riflescopes/eliminator-6-4-20x52mm I know there is another thread started on scopes with a mating range finder. This one gives you both along with corrected illuminated reticle dot for elevation. Any thoughts on this besides being pricey?

    Bullet Central

    https://bulletcentral.com/ They have free shipping/hazmat on 8lbs through today. They have a small selection of Vihtavuori powder in stock. I grabbed a 8lber of N560 for the future when my RL-26 supply is out. $339.99 to my door I believe is a fair price today.

    Early Spring

    Today I dug out the plow and plowed the garden. On normal years there would be 2’ of snow back there yet. Ground was dry. Usually late April to early May is the standard here. Some of the neighbors are starting field work already. If it wasn’t for a turn in the forecast this coming week I would...

    Some Time at the Reloading Bench

    This past week I received a pile of 7mm RM brass 333 pcs in total. 246 pcs are Peterson , which is what I was after. So today I dug out the 7mm RM from the back of the safe and proceeded to load up some of that brass. The only bullet I run in it is Federal 160gr Fusions I picked up years back...

    Academy Sports and Outdoors

    https://www.academy.com/p/hodgdon-bl-c2-rifle-powder Has anyone here done business with them? They have BL-C2 at a very reasonable price for today. The kicker is they have free home delivery on a hazmat item. I paid $8/lb more at SW this past summer.

    222 Rem Thoughts

    My brother has informed me that a 222 Rem is in his possession. It is a Savage 340 , not sure what series it is but he says it’s drilled and tapped for the scope side mount. I’m looking for suggestions in powder/bullet combos that work from the members here. Thanks

    Little Informal Primer Test

    The other week I did a primer test to see if there really is a difference. I used the 375 Wby and 270gr Speers that I backed off the load a little so there wouldn’t be any pressure surprises. Results are as followed. The CCI had a spread of 60fps which is somewhat odd. These were fresh from...

    Alcan Magnum Large Rifle Primers

    I picked these up at an Estate auction. I believe they are even older than me. Packaging is still in new condition yet. I did load up some today and they fired 😁. Any of our older distinguished members know the history of these?

    Little Range Time 1-27-24

    Had to go to town this morning so I grabbed a few rifles and stopped at the range on the way home. The weather was nothing special misty and breezy , it’s still January I’ll take it. There was 6” of slush to walk through. First up was zeroing the 243 Win. CFP pistol. I did learn quick that I...
