    There’s something about a .308 Win and 168 SMKs

    I picked up a Rem 700 special purpose police in .308 years ago and set it up for my Nephew who was in the Army sniper program. It's a 26" heavy barrel and it shoots the factory Black Hills 168 smk in one hole! Stupid accurate out to about 850 yards and seems to fall off after that. I bought...

    140 bulldozer 2's in 280 ai

    Just started working with the 140 BD-2 in my boy's 280 AI, ran a pressure ladder using RL23 and so far looks pretty good. We started at 57 grains and worked up to 60.5. Never really saw pressure at 60.5 but the cases were warm and the recoil was pretty snappy for a Teenager. We had a node at...

    Farewell to HD Atlas

    Did he crack his bionic nut bag? I also noticed the bot is just as clumsy as me! This is scary on so many levels. Jason

    US869/ 300 RUM ?

    I have tried US 869 in both my 7 RUM and my 300 RUM and quickly went back to Retumbo. I was looking for a full case with the 869 but I couldn't get the velocity or the consistency with it. Sd and Es was horrible in my rifles. Hope this helps, Jason

    7 RUM W/180 ELD-M's

    This is solid advise!! Look for powders that fill the case and expect the best consistency near max chamber pressure. Jason

    7 RUM W/180 ELD-M's

    I have loaded for my 7 Rum for over 20 years and 2 others as well, I am on my 3rd barrel on my rifle. While many powders will work I have had the best luck with Retumbo. All of the rifles and all 3 barrels of my own all shot Retumbo very well and all like to be near a max load. For me that...

    McMillan Game Scout

    I have 2 Game Scouts on Custom rifles and really like them for long range prone shooting, maybe not my favorite for point and shoot hunting but not bad either. Both of mine wear Brux #5 contour barrels which is the max for the Scout. The first Game Scout rifle wears a Nightforce NXS 5.5-22x50...

    Tough way to go out. Mountain lion attack

    Tragic story and my condolences go out to the family. This is a problem only solved by a harvest plan and we know in this state it will never happen. Lion sightings are so prevalent in the small hunting community for which I live it seems most here are not opposed to shooters silence. I have...
