    New 30-06. Thinking about trying copper.

    Both Boretech Eliminator or Sharpshooter Wipeout do very well removing copper from my 25-06. Safe also. My big problem is with carbon.

    Load Data Records

    Great ideas. Mine are scattered between targets and a range notebook with chrono numbers. Then comingled in Excel. Usually I can decipher what went on however I need to get to a standard and stick to it.

    Wakesurfing article - Good to see some headway on this

    I'm an early-bird glasshole riding a jet ski. Nothing like crusing calm waters and respecting folks while they enjoy their activities, regardless of watercraft type or fishing from the bank. My back yard is a 100+ mile pool (between dams) on the Ohio River but when I cruise the tributaries, I...

    Wakesurfing article - Good to see some headway on this

    I like it when they load up the fat sacks to throw bigger wakes. Competition for everything is everywhere and it doesn't matter how many feathers get ruffled. Tubers draw my ire as well. Unfortunately, it seems $$$ wins out more often than not.

    Spend my money on a chronograph

    My current random number generator is a Caldwell but a Garmin is on my list once I decide to spend (once again) more $$$.

    Roth for a kid?

    +1 on Fidelity brokerage account and fund his Roth with that. As been said, time in the market is very important. Thumbs up on the index fund too. Keep in mind the five year rule. https://www.investopedia.com/ask/answers/05/waitingperiodroth.asp Bonus... Fidelity has a 2% cash back credit...

    7600 Makeover

    My trigger leaves something to be desired as well however I have a 30-06 carbine that seems to group sub MOA with hand loads. Not blistering fast but I posted these groups earlier this morning in this old post... https://www.hunttalk.com/threads/remington-7600-pump.279047/page-2#post-3777532

    7600 Makeover

    Looks great. I am a big fan of the '870 pump chambered in 30-06' with DM.

    Remington 7600 pump

    Yes this is a necro-post however adding to the knowledge base. These are from a 7600 30-06 Carbine (18.5" barrel) that I worked up a mild load for 100 yard deer hunting. At ~2500 fps it is pretty much a hot rod 30-30. Off front rest with rear bag, Burris 2-7x with BDC reticle and Talley ring...

    Labradar in stock and on sale

    The Garmin looks very promising and almost too good to be true. Will wait for field reports from some of the early adopters.

    PSA: Murdochs has Retumbo

    As far as current elevated prices go, that isn't all that expensive. I've seen it for twice that in the past month here locally.

    H&R Single Shot Rifle - 25-06

    This has been neck sized only and... I have more data to gather. Those were reloaded again. All those measurements ejected fine. On this fourth firing is when things didn't want to cooperate. More measurements forthcoming. To me it is a headspace issue which is where the go/no go gauges...

    H&R Single Shot Rifle - 25-06

    Thank you for that. This helps. The reason I believe the chamber is beyond SAAMI is I measured cases before and after. This is the third reloading for this brass (Hornady from their factory Whitetail loads). These readings are from a Redding Instant indicator. The set-up gauge is 2.0487" to...

    H&R Single Shot Rifle - 25-06

    Anyone have experience with this rifle as well as loading for it? After some loads the barrel release lever was very stubborn to release and easy after others. What would cause this please? Is this an indication the brass needs the shoulder bumped back? Loads were mild...50 gr IMR 4350 with a...

    Anybody Buying Yet? Where’s the Bottom?

    Same thoughts as well however I'm trying to reduce my individual holdings and funnel those $$ to index funds. I passed up on INTC around $26.00 for the same reason.
