So my project just hit the wall because the reamer we thought we were using can't be found. So It's either 4-6 weeks and $150 to purchase another or see if one of you fine folks will lend one out... It’s going to be used by a well known Smith in RR Texas. If you have a Smith that may have one...

A daughters first deer.

Her birthday (11th) is on thanksgiving weekend each year and this year she has been asking for her chance to take a deer. After many years of hunting with me and her mom we agreed it was her time. We were hunting on a friends level 3 management (Texas) ranch and this is what she got. She did...

I am new to the Hide and wanted to say hello. I just picked up a Remington 700 5R in .223. I have a decent amount of experience w/.223 loads for a 1:9 twist. Given the new 5R tube I guess I will take a few different things with me to see how they act during the first 100 rd break in. Does anyone...
