    243 powder recommendation?

    Latest load, I am using RL-17.

    Tipping Hammers

    That would not surprise me. This 3100-3200 I am getting with my sons gun is a Browning micro midas with a 20 inch barrel.

    Tell me about your obscure cartridge

    338 RUM. If you don't reload, good luck. Was on the hunt for brass a few years back and every gun show I went to I was pretty much told I was looking for the one thing I wouldn't find anywhere. That has changed a little bit now that Atlas Development Group makes the brass but it is out of stock...

    Tipping Hammers

    Saw .243 mentioned and can say that at least in the .243 I got for my 12 year old son, that 42.2 grains of Rl-17 and an 80 grain ttsx is a bit over 3100fps.

    Priced Out of Replacement Blade Knives

    They are not cheap but after gutting, quartering and carcass trimming three deer just recently, with the same Montana Knife Company knife and not resharpening I would recommend what they make.

    Best backcountry bone saw

    I am all for weight savings, don't get me wrong but i'm starting to be convinced that the folks cutting half the tooth brush handle and skimping on TP are the same ones who are carrying the lower leg/hooves out of the woods. As for the topic, I have used a few to include a Gerber and Kershaw.

    Win .243 Ammo Suggestions Please

    Got my son a .243 for his first hunting rifle. Worked up a load with the 80 gr ttsx that has been working well.

    This is your property classification and appraisal notice

    You are correct, after 8th grade they will go to Stevi or Florence. My son goes to Lone Rock.

    UTV Tire Chains

    Once the snow shows up and the ice starts, my older RZR 800 has chains on all 4's for the duration of the winter. Pretty much needed for plowing when things get icy and really helps when you get off the beaten path.

    Cost of powder.

    Found a site just the other day that had RL-22, which I have been looking for. When you added up the price, hazmat and shipping, came out to right at $60/lb. I said no thanks at that price. $75/lb for the RL-26, discussed here, is just insane.

    7 mag Barnes 150 TTSX Anyone load this?

    That is my current go to bullet with my 7mm. 3037 fps with 63gr of RL-22. Very accurate out of my gun. Found this load to be very consistent and accurate so haven't really pushed for more speed.

    Have you ever been accused of..

    Wouldn't call it a peeping tom situation but kind of. Had a mule deer tag here in the Bitterroot valley 2 seasons ago, and for those familiar with the area there is everything from little 1 acre homes/yards, larger farms/ranches and everything in between. Almost all private. I was all over the...

    Deer Neck Meat

    I take the time to trim it all up and save for grinding. I like to have plenty of meat around for grinding, not only for burger but I make brats, texas style hot links, breakfast sausage, Italian sausage, bulk kielbasa, summer sausage, etc.

    HB 243 - Mandatory In-Person Field Day for Hunters Ed

    I am all for in person class and field day but what I would really love to see is legit funding go to FWP so they can hire paid positions for hunter education/safety, to run classes, seminars, safety training, etc., all year long and quit relying on volunteers. Everyone that complains about...

    Old powder cans

    You didn't miss read it and knowing the internet for what it is, i knew someone would call that out as soon as i decided to post a picture, lol. That tag was hand written by the wife who was running the garage sale, when she marked it to sell on the behalf of her husband. There was also some...
