    Limiting my cartridges

    I also condensed my calibers and cartridges about eight years ago and I am very happy that I did especially with the shortages that we have been dealing with the past few years. I cut pretty drastically but I now have lots of reloading components rather than being spread thin across multiple...

    Can anyone help me find a stock?

    Chad Chapman with Red Desert Rifles here in Rock Springs, WY builds excellent quality custom wood stocks. He could build whatever you have in mind and offer additional suggestions. I don’t know if this is a route that you are interested in but it gives you another option! Here is his website...

    Montana Rifle Company - Opinions?

    I had one that I ordered thru their custom shop. Fit and finish was beautiful, however the magazine was very restrictive for a handloader especially for a .300 Win. To make things even more challenging the chamber was deep throated. Swapping components and finding components is not as simple as...

    Scope mounting: Should I Lap or Bed my Mounting System?

    Good information. I believe that many good rails and scopes have been unknowingly damaged to various degrees due to improper mounting. I will take any good info such as this to prevent such a mistake.

    175 Nosler ABLR or 175 Hornady ELD-X

    Both are great bullets and I have heard of great results on paper and in the field from both. My experience has only been with ELD-X's punching paper and I have had great results. That being said I believe that in the past Nosler may have slightly overstated their published BC, while Hornady...
