    300 WM charge weight INCREMENT QUESTION

    Re: 300 WM charge weight INCREMENT QUESTION Just a few observations: 1. I'm on the side of those who don't think working up to loose primer pockets is the way to go. If the load loosens the primer pockets on the first firing, whatever the case, it's either way too hot or the brass is way...

    Rifle Scopes Which long-range scope for CZ550?

    Re: Which long-range scope for CZ550? The CZ 550 has an integral scope base so what you should probably do is buy 2 scopes and put them each in Talley QD mounts or other type of QD mounts then you can use one scope for target shooting and one for deer hunting. I had a Nightforce 5.5-22x56 BR...

    Hunting & Fishing Trespassing While Hunting????

    Re: Trespassing While Hunting???? In addition to being an Ohio landowner, I have been a Pennsylvania landowner. Things are a little different in PA. There you have to have a no trespassing sign every so many feet which has to have your phone number on it. Of course, those who don't wish to...

    Hunting & Fishing Trespassing While Hunting????

    Re: Trespassing While Hunting???? Ohio has it right in my opinion. A hunter has to have WRITTEN permission to hunt on another's property and said property does not have to be marked or posted in any way.

    Rifle Scopes Price match guarantees on scopes.

    Re: Price match guarantees on scopes. When a company or person offers to "beat any offer" or a "price match guarantee" I pretty much never go back. They get one shot to give me their best price. I don't feel like letting them waste my time.

    Rifle Scopes Barska Scope Question

    Re: Barska Scope Question Well, next time ask questions before you buy. Don't feel bad though. When I was your age, I bought some pretty dumb "bargains." I learned that it was better to wait and get what I really wanted and what worked than buy a "bargain" I would never be happy with. For...

    8208 xbr questions

    Re: 8208 xbr questions IMR 8208 XBR meters better than Varget and almost anything else. I've had excellent results with it in a 270 Winchester shooting 130 gr. Remington Core-Lokts (that's right, not match bullets).

    Hunting & Fishing Any T/C users?

    Re: Any T/C users? The Encore handgun works well also. The European Fallow deer was taken with a 460 S&W Encore handgun.

    Hunting & Fishing Any T/C users?

    Re: Any T/C users? Encores and Contenders, both rifles and handguns, are what I do the great majority of my hunting with. I have several Pro Hunter barrels and like them. I also have 24 and 26 inch barrels which I also like. The 24 inch tapered barrels are perhaps a little handier than the...

    Magnum primers for ball powder?

    Re: Magnum primers for ball powder? You should do your own testing to decide which primer is best with which powder. Sometimes regular primers work just fine with ball powders and at times magnum primers work best with stick powders. For cartridges up to 30/06 size, I generally start load...

    Stainless Media

    Re: Stainless Media Yes, almost assuradly too much Lemishine. For a 15 lb. capacity tumbler, I use about half a teaspoon of Lemishine with Dawn and tumble for 2 hours. Then I change the water until fairly clear and then tumble for a couple more hours with Dawn and no Lemishine. Since this...

    300 win mag starting point...

    Re: 300 win mag starting point... 1. For starting loads, you can use pretty much any data for 180 gr. jacketed bullets from any of the manuals. 2. I would suggest you buy a Nosler reloading manual; it's really quite good.

    new .204 Ruger

    Re: new .204 Ruger I use "heavy" bullets in my 1:12 twist Thompson/Center Contender in 204 Ruger. By heavy, I mean Hornady 45 gr. Spire Points over RL-15 which shoot very well in my gun. Thus far, they've accounted for a crow at 311 yards and a deer at 252 yards.

    Redding 2400 Case Trimmer (Do you use one)

    Re: Redding 2400 Case Trimmer (Do you use one) I have one and, were I doing it over, I wouldn't buy one. The reasons: 1. Mine came absent a screw. Since I never had one before, I wasn't aware of an absent screw. Redding finally came through with the proper screw which helped. 2. The...
