    50 cal for hunting

    I used to own a 338 edge. It was a 20lb rifle and I had fun with it, but sold it long time ago. I now have a 20" barrel 243 and a 6.5 saum, 10lbs and 11lbs respectively and I've kinda moved to a mentality of not needing nor wanting the extra horsepower. I shoot at 1k quite a bit and I'm not...

    Chronograph needed for reloading?

    I feel the same way about chronographs as I do about monopods. Waste of time, and if you think you need one you haven't shot enough or don't know what you are doing. I've shot over a CED, and an Oehler. The numbers they give you won't line your shots up at distance so all they do is show you...

    SOLD/EXPIRED WTB H1000 Powder

    I'm after 8lbs of H1000 if anyone has some that they can spare. I have a new rifle and can't shoot it :(

    Shooting at 1825 yards

    No, I haven't. I like H1000 and use it in other rifles so I don't have any plans to try anything else. I'll probably reduce the powder charge a little and see how long this barrel lasts. I'm hoping I'll get 1200-1500 out of it but we will see.

    Shooting at 1825 yards

    Thanks! You know I was shooting 75 grains but every two firings I had to use the body die to bump the shoulder. I backed off to 74.5 and I bet I'll still have to bump the shoulder after two or maybe 3 more firings but we will see. This lot of brass is on its 8th reload, the necks have been...

    6.5 ackley Wildcat

    You should look at the 6.5 Saum. I'm currently building one now. Neck down 7 Saum brass and it fits (and feeds well) in a short action and uses the WSM style Accuracy International mags that Accurate Mag and Alpha Mag offers. 3150 fps with 140 amax is easy to do and with H1000 the pressures...

    Tried out the new Phone Skope last night

    Just wanted to give an update on this product. The video was filmed with the C3 adaptor for my Swaro and I decided to try the C4 universal adaptor. The C4 arrived yesterday and I tried it out. It works but it takes more adjustment, isn't as stable, and I could imagine if the wind was blowing...

    Tried out the new Phone Skope last night

    No looping going on there. That rock is about 36" wide and I bet that group would of been 2 or 3". I really like it though, its more affordable and lighter than a nice camera and all the other stuff for digiscoping. I bought an adaptor that fits my scope very snug and I like it but you have to...
