After 20 years in Montana the webbing between my toes has finally receded after living over 25 years in Oregon, where it only rains 387 days a year and is cloudy the other 340 days.;)

As noted in several postings already, I too have used electrical tape for many years, but not because of stretching or lack thereof, but rather the fact that electrical tape can be stuck on when it is wet out already. It will stick to itself well, so I put a strip over the muzzle and then a...

I have a Browning 7mm mag and have good success with Speer 160 gr. over IMR 7977.

Congrats on your purchase! I use my .257 Wthby for antelope here in Montana but have dropped a number of large muley bucks during late antelope season (deer season overlaps a bit here) and the opportunity arose. Last year I hadn't filled my antelope buck (either sex tag) or doe tags yet when a...

Good service and warranty are ALWAYS appreciated and creates strong loyalty in the customer base for sure. I have a rather inexpensive brand of scope on a .22-250 that I drag across the cactus and sage crawling up on prairie dogs. After six years a lens seal sprung a leak. I received a new scope...

I have the same issue with most of my rifles as well. One option is to single feed so you have the 0.010" jump you want or try a few rounds with the 0.055" and see how it does. I hunted with some Barnes bullets awhile back and they recommend 0.050" jump for their bullets for whatever reason and...

Call B&L and send them the scope to check it. You have eliminated all the other variables.

Brass is left at the range by people with more money than people like me.

.257 wthby all the way baby! Well, okay, my bride uses a 25-06 ;).

Trigger pull, trigger pull, trigger pull. Which one has a better trigger out of the box? Need decent for hunting confidence. Or, if you like one over the other and the trigger is as poor as the Howa's of 15 years ago then plan an extra $125 for an after market trigger.

I know what you mean Rev. There is one camp of light fast bullet guys and another camp of slow heavy bullet guys. Obviously there isn't a clear demarcation but I tend to be more of the slow heavy bullet guy. I have what some consider "elk rifles" in .270, .280, 7mm mag, 30-06, 30-06AI, .300wm...

What is accurate out of your rifle? Use that.

It happens to the young ones as well. My son was 14 when we got back to the truck after dark from deer hunting, put all our gear in the truck and drove home about 2 1/2 hours away. Months later, I asked for his rifle to clean it up for storage......realization that he had left it against the...

Hell yes! .257 wthby mag antelope rifle is called "the hammer of Thor", .280 rem is the "deer slayer", .325 wsm is "the big bopper", .25-06 is a stainless with black stock rifle called "the black mamba", .338 wm is called "the elk thumper". Named my truck too :).
