I started at the beginning of this thread and was waiting for someone to mention pop up ice house’s.

Another thing to consider on your COAL to the lands, if your using a Hornady modified case to check your jump ect, there is a good chance that the hornady modified case is not the same length as your brass. Check your fired brass and sized brass, base to shoulder and oal compared to the...

I was kinda thinking that way also in the 24/25 cal area. I had my smith build me a 6CM 2 years ago. So I guess that puts me in the 25 cal area now, lol.

Thanks for all your ideas so far. Been kicking the ideas around for awhile. I have a few factory rifles, 45-70, 7mm mag, .300 wm and .300wby mag. The 7 and 300wby were passed down to me. All these options…I guess I should start looking at what components are actually available for all these...

I picked up a Rem 700 standard action a couple weeks ago for cheap 30-06, I have a 260 and 6.5-284,built on the same action. I’m trying to decide what cal to do next with this one. I’m gonna see if this shoots first. If it shoots acceptable for me, it will stay 06. I was kinda thinking...

Just curious, what bullets are those

I thought I wanted one. But my good friend put one on one of his rifles and had to work up a completely different load for it. I don’t want to start over with load development just for a can. I’m stubborn that way I guess

Got one a couple years ago at 70 mph in a W9. Head shot, off the right front corner, the Heard Grill Guard saved the front end , but she must of spun around and under the drivers, the pup I was pulling finished off what the drivers didn’t get.

Last couple years Antelope average out about 500 yards. Like others have said Varmints, no range limit.

In my 6.5-284, I started out .005 off the lands and worked back to .120 off. I ended up at .058 off, using H4831SC. A 5 shot group between a dime and nickel. Finally just called that “Good Enough” 1-8twist Kriegr, 26.5” @ 2930 FPS Over the LabRadar. Took way to long to find a load that would...

Yes Sir this one is.

I’m sorry, does my profile say I’m from California or New York? I’ll have to look at that closer myself, I’d hate for people like you to think I have my head stuck up my *** and can’t do my Own load development.

I like a liter trigger, but 5-6…I don’t know. The rifle here was at 3.3 and I finally settled at 7.5-8oz. I do a 10 pull average. I was shooting and doing load development for my dad on his RMEF 7mm Mag x-bolt. I had to look a couple times to make sure the Saftey was off, seemed like I’d...

Well,I know what your saying. I’m just 47, and wear contacts/glasses I hate shooting with glasses on my face. They seem to get in the way and mess things up. The distance is my eye problem. I always tell others that have the same issues, optics’s will let you shoot what you couldn’t see. 😉

The shot was only 425 yards, she had been separated from the heard the night before. I know because I watched these guys chase, shoot, chase shoot more….to each their own. Not my style of hunting speed goats or anything else.( well in my younger days and girls different story) . Tag was either...
