I have a RRA predator pursuit with the 20 inch barrel. A little heavy but shoots great. Very accurate for an AR.

I purchased a used 300 winmag last year that is part of the recall. Don't think I am going to ship my rifle to remington. If I did that I would have to take the rifle out of the aftermarket stock and remove the scope before I shipped the barrel and action. If it is only the trigger that is...

Thanks for the insight blackaj

I have a rem 300 winmag that I bought for elk hunting. Has the cheap sps stock on it that I am looking to upgrade. I am trying to figure out which B&C stock to put on it. Want something lightweight but with the bedding block in it. Am not interested in a heavy tactical style stock as I will...

I bought a nikon monarch 4-16 for my ruger .280 and the eye piece at the rear of ths scope was so much bigger than my old scope that I had contact with the bolt why cycling rounds. Bought this: Ruger M77 MKII Rifle Scope Mounts WEIG-A-TINNY® Weaver Picatinny And replaced my ruger rings...

Broke a couple cartridges down and they had 69.8 -69.9 grains of powder. Looks a lot like IMR4350 or IMR4831. But again cross checking the nosler website, a nosler reloading manual and a hornady reloading manual I can't find anything that runs approx 2950 with just under 70 grains of powder...

I purchased a 300 winmag recently for my elk hunt this fall. Not having access to any brass and short on time for load development I purchased a couple boxes of nosler custom ammo loaded with 180 grain accubonds @ 2950 fps from Midwayusa. I really like how these loads shoot and would like to...

nevermind mods please delete. Just figured out that it is one device/ download and I need to get the mountain central

Terribly confused on what map would be best for an upcoming elk hunt in colorado. I have a garmin dakota 20 and a buddys garmin 60cx as backup/ second gps. What map can I download onto both that will provide boundaries on BLM, National forest land and private property. The garmin website...

Anyone have any experience hunting area 161? I just got invited to go with a group nov 2-9th for an elk hunt. Never been to that area so not sure what to expect. With an over the counter tag can I get a combo elk/ mule deer? I went to the CO Game and parks website but it is super confusing...

Just got a bag of .243win brass at the local scheels. Maybe it is just me but this brass is undersized in just about everyway. I don't remember a lot that was consistantly this undersized before. Out of 50 I bet I shaved some brass on maybe 15 with my lee trimmer. Some were as short as...

My wife was nice enough to stop at the local scheels and pick up some primers on the way home. Unfortunately they only had magnum primers left in the large rifle variety. I have never used magnum primers. I only reload for 223, 243, 280 & 308. I still have several hundred regular large rifle...

Managed to find some imr4064 & H4831sc. Varget is like hens teeth around here. I think I have some alternatives now to the Ar-comp. Probably going to just use that up in the 223. Thanks for all the feedback.

I have about 1/2 lbs of imr4350 left. I have been using that for my .280 remington. I have been unable to find more locally. I really don't want to use the last of my 4350 up trying to develop a load for my .243 which is the loaner deer gun slash my coyote rifle. I will have to try the...

I have given up on locating any RL-15 locally. I did locate some AR-Comp and now need some guidance on a starting load. Planning on using this with 87 grain V-max in a stevens .243 winchester using winchester cases & WLR primers. I went to the alliant reloading guide web page and found...
