    Segregating .338 SMKs 300gr What priorities?

    I think smeltzer is on to something with this wind thing... I think wind will have more of an effect that variations in bullets. Just load the bullets and shoot them. Your shooting skills are so much more important than any obsessing you will do over bullets or other stuff like that. I used to...

    What is the best .338????

    The 338 Lapua is a great round and it wins easily over the 338 win mag. There are some other 338 rounds such as the 338 Edge that get good reviews, but I do not have any experience so I can't comment. I will say that the 300 smk has always been the bullet to use for long range work in the big...

    Powder lot number?

    Goodgrouper, mixing 2 different powders IS really stupid. I believed this discussion to be about mixing different lots of the same powder.

    Powder lot number?

    Roll-Yur-Own made perfect sense to me. Goodgrouper, are you kidding me: [ QUOTE ] If one type of powder was on the 6% fast side, and another kind of powder was on the fast side by 6%, then I think he was trying to point out that the error of the control would be as high as 12%. [/ QUOTE ]...

    this *)$$#@ me off look at this

    Roger, I have to disagree with one thing you said. I think that hunters do have a right to speak out about canned hunts. Yes, we do have many groups against us but these canned hunts are ammunition for them. They teach you in hunters education classes not to do stupid things to turn more people...

    Rifle Cleaning Question

    Wipe Out Rocks! I haven't used a brush since I started using it. I HIGHLY recommend using wipe out accelorator too. This cuts the time in less than half. Just run a patch of accelorator then spray the wipe-out down the bore and leave it it for 12-24 hours. Then 2 or 3 patches and its done...

    SOLD/EXPIRED WTS Ithaca Deeerslayer III - Straight taper heavey barrel

    Wow, that is a beauty. If I didn't have one I'd consider yours.... Could you tell me if there is a website to get more info about getting one painted like that. FYI, the recoil reduction is not really needed since the gun if 10.75 pounds WITHOUT a scope. The barrel on that thing really makes...

    McMillan

    I waited over a year one time for a custom action that was supposed to take 3 months. Needless to say, I was ****ed. I came close to leaving a nasty message on voicemail. In the end I got a great action and I'm real happy. I was lied to ans mislead, but the finished product is great. Like...

    Equipment List for new loader

    I like my forster seater dies with the micrometer top. Makes seating a breeze. They come in a two die set with micro seater and fl seater. I also bought a redding neck sizer as well. I neck size only until it gets tight then I fl. Forster & Redding dies are in a league of their own. I...

    Bullet Worthy of a Once-in-a -Lifetime Trophy?

    Lerch it is unfortunate about hornady. The would be great if my gun would shoot'em. Fishry is going into an area where he has a great chance of getting a dream deer. The topic is not "will a MK work?". We all know MK's work. But the facts remain; he is not shooting a magnum. If he goes for a...
