Only food plot right now, feeder is empty. Just got this pic. I do have about 3 acres of thick brush / trees I don’t go into. Like to keep the safe bedding area.

I tell you what, just give me a call, I’ll load up the tractor and head over. You just have to give me first crack and any game.lol. But I agree with @captrjc. If you have a little opening you can plant a small food plot or put up a feeder I’d do that initially. I’ve found during the summer...

Mines been leaking oil since day 1. Never drops on the ground, but the pan is always covered with it when I go to change the oil. When it was under warranty I brought it in 3 times. They could never find the source? They changed the rear main, front main, and oil pan gasket. After the oil...

When I first read this @txaggie1 I thought you had a 224-378, not rifles ranging from 224 cal to 378 cal. My jaw dropped a little and was like good lord! How fast does that bad boy shoot?!?? As for me favorite is hard to quantify. If we’re saying favorite its the first gun you grab to run...

I have yet to see guns other than old above the fireplace ones. It does make you think though. As we were leaving I asked my wife what she would do with all my stuff if I passed. She had no idea what anything is worth. Feel like I should make an inventory and cost….but then she may find out...

Wife has been dragging me to estate sales for the last couple years. Never find anything, usually a bunch of crap. Well this morning it paid off. Hit a pretty good stash of reloading items. Picked up a couple hundred 22 cal bullets, several hundred primers, lead shot in all different sizes...

I only have one can and it’s the Hybrid 46m. Is it the best can…no. Is it nice to be able to shoot everything I own through it, yes. Running 300 BLK Out through it subsonic is still pretty dang quiet. Maybe not as quiet as a dedicated 30 cal can, but I don’t think my ear could detect the...

I have a video, but not sure how to post those. It’s about a 3” gouge that ended in that burr in the picture. I do have some tubbs but haven’t tried that. May at lease get rid of the burr, gouge will still be there. It’s about 4” down from the muzzle. It’s a sponsor, I miss spoke on that...

Just seeing this thread. I have exactly one preferred barrel. It has a huge gouge in the rifling that grabs pieces of cotton patches and leaves cotton in the barrel. Even with that I’d still give them a try again. Their customer service was great. Said they’d replace the barrel blank at no...

I love your dedication to the 25cal. Man after my own heart just with much deeper pockets!🤣🤣

Welcome from Florida. Born and raised in Chico so know all about NorCal. Welcome!

Go long or XM at a minimum. I think, pulling this out of the cobwebs in my head while I wait for it to get light turkey hunting, a properly throated WSM for the 215 Berger is .188 freebore. I didn’t know much when I had my first custom built, so I went a .088 freebore. It’s perfect for the...

I’m living there with you right now. Lost the reloading room in the house, so built a room in my shop. Straight man cave. AC/heat, couch, TV. Only thing missing is a bathroom. Room was completed 1 month before my son was born. He turned 7 months today. The room sits unchanged, unpacked...

I had the same issue about 3 years ago. Bought 50 virgin brass and 40 loaded, both Weatherby ammo and brass. The head stamps said the same thing, but the font was a little different. Same exact charge, one firing on each, the loaded ammo brass gave me around 200 fps less than the virgin...
