    Looking for alternative powders for 300 and 7 rum

    I used to shoot a 7RUM and always used Retumbo under 180 VLDs. For the lighter bullets H1000 would probably work great.

    Scope field evaluations on rokslide

    I didn't see a tested Huskemaw in any of his post. I have always had confidence in mine but this now has me wondering 🤔

    Advice on Scope Welcomed

    I still like the Huskemaw 5x20 for hunting purposes. It has decent glass, very reliable, and it's a very easy to use system.

    Effect on accuracy

    Ha ha, don't get me to thinking too hard about that or it might happen 🤔

    Effect on accuracy

    I appreciate your thoughts. I know that I have caused similar dimples and dings by accidentally dropping rounds or something like that in the past but was kind of perturbed when I noticed what had happened here. I didn't figure it would matter close range but sometimes I can get kinda annal...

    Effect on accuracy

    How much will a dimple like this effect accuracy when it's on the shoulder? I ran 20 pieces of brass neck sizing before I noticed it. Pretty much the same dimple on all of them. Upon inspection I had somehow gotten a kernel of powder in the die.

    7 PRC Users, need a little info

    I would assume but couldn't say for sure.

    7 PRC Users, need a little info

    I think my smith said PTG but I could be mistaken 🤔. My boattail taper is above the top of the case shoulder but I have never measured the neck grip.

    7 PRC Users, need a little info

    My CBTO with the 175 EH is 2.678 which gives me a jump of .007 With 68.0 of H1000 I'm at 2930 velocity. Even though my loading and shooting skills are very modest it's holding right at .5 moa out to 700 yes which is the farthest that I have tried yet. I tried up to 69.5 grains but was losing...

    Wyoming Elk Hunt!

    Congratulations and well done! I agree that when you are with good folks, the the experience of a wilderness camp elk hunt is worth the cost even if you dont get a harvest.

    7 PRC bullet

    ha ha good catch ! It should read 68 grain H1000. I think there would be a problem trying to use 86!

    7 PRC bullet

    I will be trying my new 7PRC this fall with Berger 175 EH on a big bull hopefully. I settled in at 2930 velocity with 86 gr H1000 from 24" tube. First time hunting with the 175 EH but have taken several bulls and bucks with the 180 vld and they have always been drt.

    Muzzleloader Decision

    I recently upgraded to a 50 cal CVA MR-X and I love it. I'm shooting the 340 grain Eld-X Boredriver with 80 grains by weight of BH. I got the Anarchy Muzzlebreak that helps a lot with the recoil, also it's easy on and off for cleaning. I tested loads from 77 to 83 gr by weight and get best...

    ChargeMaster scale inconsistent

    A lot of good insights and suggestions being posted here. It sounds like a lot of you guys have been experiencing these issues since day one. Mine has only developed recently. I have used my ChargeMaster for over 10 years and only occasionally did I see over / under. Usually when it did happen...
