    What makes your decision to sell a rifle?

    In my younger days I sold a few so I could buy diapers. The only one I really wish I had back was my 7400 30-06. I 've also picked up a couple from friends or co-workers who needed money. I've ended up with several ADL, 783, 770's , Axis, etc, that I had no intention of keeping. These days, my...

    Need quick help RE: #43 RCBS Shell Holder

    I've never crushed a 300wsm. You should be able to adjust the die and resolve your issue. If you've adjusted it until the shell holder touches the die with no case, and it is still not sizing the cases enough, then you may need to adjust or shim the shell holder, however what you said was you...

    Dogs on property

    I keep a little 22 revolver loaded with Rat shot for welcoming unwanted dogs. It goes to the deer stand with me also. Unfortunately, my road is only a few miles out of town and a popular place for dumping off animals. Almost all of the dogs and cats we've had in the last 25yrs have started out...

    Browning A-bolt -Good?

    I have an A-bolt 270win, it is a tack driver, doesn't have the Boss. I have a couple X-bolts also. The only downside I would mention is the two piece bolt. It is another possible failure point if you're one who doesn't take care of your guns. But the bolts are smooth and well made, it’s very...

    California officer fired after video shows colleague shot during police garage "horseplay"

    Unfortunately, the badge does not magically increase your intelligence or maturity. Both of them are idiots who do not need to have guns.

    280 AI will not feed

    Is the bolt is missing the case entirely or missing the base but scraping middle of the brass? If its loaded correctly and missing the first case entrely with mag fully loadef then the mag is probably not seated all the way. If it is missing the base but scraping the middle of brass, then the...

    Proof PXT testing with Alex Wheeler

    Pressure comes from the seal between barrel and bullet creating the resistance. This is a function of the dimensions of the bullet and the dimensions of bore and obturation. I don’t see how less aggressive lands or throat would affect this negatively, but we'll see.

    Proof PXT testing with Alex Wheeler

    If the hype is backed up by results, it's not hype. I'm a little skeptical myself, but the science leads me to think there's some legitimacy to the claims. Even if barrel life is only improved by 50% or dispersion is only reduced by 25%, it's enough to make it worth trying for me. If it doesn't...

    6.8 Western short barrel powder recommendations

    H4831sc and RL17 would be my choice to try, but I don't think you'll get close to .270 performance

    Proof PXT testing with Alex Wheeler

    If the barrel life improvent and accuracy of PXT proves to be what they claim, I see a bunch of re-barrels in my future. Especially my 22-250, 6.5-300, and probably all of my Ar-15's.

    Proof PXT testing with Alex Wheeler

    I was told by Proof that .277 steel barrels will be available late this year or early 2027. They don't even have a part number issued for them yet. Im building a 27 Stalker and will be ordering one as soon as they are available.

    Mountain Lion Encounters

    I think we covered earlier in this thread why F&G, or in my case, TWRA , is not going to confirm any sightings. But as mentioned, you shoot one and they find out, you'll find out why you shouldn't have.

    30 06 H4350 150 gr sst

    H4350 and IMR4064 are the easy buttons for 30-06. I've tried them and just about everything else in 30-06, Tac, RL17, Varget, Stabal, you name it. Right now my go-to 30-06 hunting load is Superformance and 178 ElDx. I have a 700 CDL SF, Howa 1500, and an old A-bolt in 30-06 and they all like...

    If the new PXT rifling doubles barrel life, does it change your perception of overbore?

    A lot of folks don't know that Proof Research doesn't just do civilian firearms. They do quite a bit of medium caliber military work (0.60"-75mm) . Some of this technology was developed from thier work with those larger rds. They had some issues to work out with thier first Carbon Fibre barrels...

    If the new PXT rifling doubles barrel life, does it change your perception of overbore?

    I'll take a liitle of both, though I don't think I'll be pushing to 80kpsi , I'll stick with brass cases 🙂 I'm in the middle of building a wildcat , 27 stalker with a few adjustments. Proof research just notified me that .277 PXT barrels won't be available until late this year or early 2027. I...
