Saturday afternoon late I was able to head out with a friend to do a little doggin with a couple of XP's. He christened his 6.5 PRC XP-100 with his first dog, and it was fun to be there for that. He has already killed a buck antelope with it in 2023, but this was the first prairie dog. My...

We got home before lunchtime today. After unloading, I ran out to Dan Ekstrom’s place to pick up Coco. Dan had done some load development for his six Creedmoor XP-100, and was real pleased with the 100 yard results. Sometime ago, dan had bedded a used 7BR XP that I had picked up used. The...

While looking for a pic earlier today I cam across another one that had good memories. MOA Maximum 7mm Remington Magnum Improved (No Belt). Douglas 9T barrel. Mac's Gunworks made the aluminum forend, and a later had the barrel chopped off one inch, and had a Holland Radial Baffle brake added...

I really thought that I had posted this before. A number of years ago, my wife and I took a vacation to New Zealand. She told me that I could do some hunting for 2 1/2 to 3 days while we were there. I knew a guy that did some outfitting in New Zealand, and when he hunted in Africa, he would...

I thought I was going to sell both of these center-grip XP's, but the interest in 17's is not high, so I am in the midst of prepping (cleaning, annealing and sizing down) some once fired Remington 221 Fireball brass, for the 17 Mach IV. I cheated on the 17 Remington XP, and ordered some: Nosler...

The AR250 is now available, if you want one. This is the creation of =AZXt6cyQaZP0LzvoHVCrP0LGy2Slyr5fxFGqxTQfaiZZEwSx9zgnxfMA5pz8oQo0OUQC_ktC0yExXqqupraV5t6DNtcFX0IyjfIm9HeIxIDdLqUjBLkrB_HHesADnrqyKts&__tn__=-]K-R']Sebastian Lambang’s son...

Every since I hunted in South Africa, I have been wanting a solid way to shoot a specialty pistol, especially a center-grip single-shot out to 500 yards (Keep the shots under 10"), from the standing position, using a tri-pod quickly. I have used hog/pig saddles, and items like it, Arca rails on...

Every year Dan Ekstrom and I look forward to going just outside of Story, Wyoming to do some Whitetail hunting in some beautiful country. There’s not really a shot opportunity much beyond 250 yards, and many shots, are much closer. The best way to describe our time together there is, “Fun!” This...

I plan on starting with TAC or H-335 with the 130 grain Tipped TSX's. This will be for my Blaser Pistol (308 Winchester), which dropped a doe yesterday on the spot with a 155 A-Max, in the 225ish range. If you tried either of these powders what did you end up with MV (List your barrel length...

Once again, Guy is on Ultimate Reloader again, with a video about the 6.5 Creedmoor. Guy is a class act, and I really like how he approaches things-Solid J!

Being able to hunt with a good Christian Brother is a wonderful privilege. I can easily say there is no way I would’ve shot this cow elk, if I had been hunting alone. It has been my desire for some time, to take an elk with one of my BCG Pachmayr Dominators. That desire was fulfilled last...

Dan Ekstrom and I applied as a group for an early season tag south of Lander, Wyoming. We were both going for a bigger buck than what we had shot previously or maybe a freak. I can easily say there was no way I could’ve done this without Dan’s help. As of Wednesday, I was eight weeks out of my...

I have never been a fan of Christiansen Arms. Main reason being, is their carbon wrapped barrels will sometimes shoot wonderful, while others shoot terrible. WYSHOT had ended a day or two previously, and while I was trying to get things put up for my shoot, and get ready for my surgery I...

Glenn and I went out a couple of weeks ago to Mac’s Gunworks for some trigger therapy. It was a lot of fun, even though the wind was very challenging at times. I shot out to 1200 yards successfully with my rear grip Kauger Arms 22 GT. Glenn shot his center-grip XP-100 in 22 Creedmoor. Both of us...

After a time with food and fellowship with three families on Sunday after our morning worship, Dan and I got out with about 1.5 hours of daylight left to go play on steel. I had not shot this much since last June-It was great. We met at Mac's Gunwork's south of Gillette, and set up a paper...

I will be getting a shorty (15") 375 H&H barrel soon...Maybe today. It has a Holland Brake Also getting a 15" 308 Winchester barrel (No brake yet) I am not going to say what brand and model this pistol is, until I get it in my hands...But it is beautiful! It is not a break-open action or a...

I am going to be running heavy for caliber bullets for both of these specialty pistols. Both are single-shots: 6-284 is a center-grip with a 15.9" barrel and the 25-284 is a rear-grip with a 15" barrel 6.5-284 Lapua brass that will be necked down appropriately for each cartridge. Will be...

I know I have not posted a lot since my surgery, but this is a update. I started lap swimming just over a week ago. I have only been in the pool three times so far, but 600 yards, 1K, and 1K have been good. I am NOT swimming non-stop at these distances, but will swim 100 yards, and stop and...

Curious who is doing it or is considering it? 2023 will be the year that I dive into this hard, to see what my limits will be, especially with center-grip single-shot XP-100's. I have used tri-pod's in the past, but I am wanting to get serious about it this year. Using 8" or 10" steel what is...
