    Suppressor help

    Well done, cut your losses and move one. I just had a similar experience with putting a brake on my Tikka 300WM for hunting. Had the smith put a rearden brake on. First two shots hit the end cap. Sent the suppressor back in to DDI and took the gun to the smith. They said it was fine, so I...

    Benelli supernova anyone?

    First gun I bought was a $200 Benelli Nova from a pawn shop. Thing was well worn when I got it. But my experience duck hunting by that point was a lot of getting rained on and wading in waist deep water to get to a spot. I had carried my brother's Belgian A5 on a couple of hunts and was tired...

    What suppressors do you guys like?

    I have an Enticer LTi on my 300 WM. Had some issues with a end cap strike because of muzzle brake. Diligent Defense took care of my suppressor, no questions asked. I'm a fan boy now. I used it on my 6mm ARC AR with their new Zilch adapter for a deer hunt. LOVED IT! Id like to get their new...

    Thank you sir! Anyone have a preferred trimmer? I'm going to be at it for a while!

    Copycat Barnes Vor-TX 300 WM 150 TTSX

    I have a pound of 6.5 Stabal that I'll mess with. Really wish I could get my hands on some of the RL powders for 300 wm.

    Copycat Barnes Vor-TX 300 WM 150 TTSX

    Next question, would y'all anneal the brass? Two different head stamps so I'll have to make sure they act the same once loaded.

    Copycat Barnes Vor-TX 300 WM 150 TTSX

    SSTs, that's awesome! I bought a bunch for elk hunting a few years ago then guys at work talked me out of using them.

    Copycat Barnes Vor-TX 300 WM 150 TTSX

    Thanks, I've gotten load data from Hodgdon's site but never seen that particular page. Looks better than the one I'm used to. Thanks!

    Copycat Barnes Vor-TX 300 WM 150 TTSX

    Howdy All, Working on making a copycat load for my father-in-law. He shoots Barnes VOR-TX, 150 gr TTSX out of his 300 WM. He hadn't found any in a while so I thought Id try my hand at making something similar, if not the same. Muzzle velocity is 3285 fps from the factory rounds. Hopefully...

    What is your Best Hunting Story?

    I've been hunting elk in Colorado since 2014 with no luck. I have seen elk and been close to them (had them mewing outside my tent at 4 am) but never the right sex or legal size. Last year a friend tells me to put in for Wyoming, avoid all the pressure that we have in Colorado. I draw a cow...

    What’s your spookiest hunting experience?

    I'll put it in the best hunting story thread. Everything other than the bear incident made it an amazing trip. Good enough for me to put in for that unit again. Another story since folks are talking fishing. Around the time of my first job, July 2011, my younger brother and I really wanted...

    What’s your spookiest hunting experience?

    A grizz roaring at me from 50yds away. Found out later that my 44 mag wasn't loaded :S A few years ago I was about 2 miles back in Colorado hunting elk with a bow. Was hunting with a buddy, had a great time hearing elk scream at us but couldn't get closer than 80yds. Didn't see another...

    I'm interested in your LW collet die. Can't PM yet I guess, so thought I'd post this way.

    30-30 load with 160 FTX and LVR

    Oooooooooooohhhh man, I think about it every time I look at the cartridge. Don't know how far it would set me back or who I would send it to.

    30-30 load with 160 FTX and LVR

    @TheGuyUpHigh200 thanks for the post! I was thinking the same thing with my speeds! I loaded three at 37, then 36.5 then 36. My chrono decided I need not worry about speeds I guess because it started acting up, only one of my 37g was clocked and it came in at 2350. My 36.5g's came in between...
