    Hunting & Fishing 593 yard buck

    I shot this buck yesterday evening at 593 yards. He made it about 40 yards before going down. He's 16 3/8" inside with 9 inch G2's. Not bad for a hill deer around here. The rifle I used is a M700 action with a Shilen 1 in 8 twist ratchet rifled #6 contour barrel @ 22" chambered to 243win. It's...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns 45 ACP double charge

    I was shooting my 45 this morning when I had a helluva case failure. The only thing I figure is a double charge. I'm loading 5.3 grains of WW231 behind a 230gr RN cast bullet. As you'll see from the pics the case ruptured just in front of the case head and all the hot gas went down thru the...

    Hunting & Fishing 2010 Arkansas buck.

    Got this one last week. Just now getting around to posting. He was with a doe just like every other buck I've seen in the last 3 weeks has been. The 100 grain TTSX outta the 25/300WSM and thru both shoulders at 40 yards stood him on his nose! Didn't have my good camera in the woods.

    I just had a rifle built in this caliber and would like to know if anybody on here has any experience with this round. If so I'll take all the loading data I can get my hands on. I've already got some data but can always use more. Thanks in advance.

    Gunsmithing Savage 270WSM

    I'm thinking of buying or trading for a Savage a buddy of mine has in 270WSM and using the action to build a Custom switchbarrel 257WSM and 325WSM on. I've heard that some actions don't feed the fat WSM cartridges very well. My question is have any of you folks had any feeding problems with the...
