    Worth reloading for gas guns?

    Plinking no. Hunting yes. I don’t have time to reload for plinking. I usually struggle to find time to shoot

    44 Magnum +P for Ruger Carbine?

    I load 23.8 gr of H110 with a 240 gr soft point for a Marlin carbine. It is more than adequate for deer and pigs.

    44 Magnum +P for Ruger Carbine?

    Reach out to both companies about your specific rifle. Get it in writing

    100% Hits to 600 Yards?

    Some days the squirrels in my pecan tree at 30 yds with a 22 are challenging enough

    Cooking Hogs?

    I always use good hygiene, wear gloves, etc. when field dressing and processing. That said I would feel my health less at risk bare hand gutting a wild pig than buying any food the government regulates. I have never seen a recall for wild game.

    What’s the farthest you have taken a big game animal with a rifle?

    First kill with my single shot pistol was 251 yds. Heart was thumping so hard I missed the first shot. The crosshairs were jumping off the deer. Anger overcame adrenaline and brought it home with the second.

    Can You Get Flagged for Buying Too Much Ammo?

    What is 'Too much ammo'? Never heard of such a thing.

    Nosler Accubond

    In thirty plus years of hunting I have never lost an animal shot with a Nosler bullet. However, I find the lack of components from a well established company not tolerable. I will be shooting Hammers this fall.

    Trying to get smart boar hog

    I use this tactic to drop my wife off at her favorite blind. She rides on the rear atv rack and steps off at low speed. Doubles her game sightings

    Whatever you are hunting won’t know the difference.
