    Woodworking Hunt Talkers?

    I have been tempted to go into mass production but I really think it would take all the fun out of it. It would cease to be a hobby and turn into work. Work is one of the things that make me enjoy hobbies. Being good at something is akin to having a pickup truck, people find you useful, Ha! I...

    Idaho Fish and Game commissioner charged with poaching bull elk

    I wonder if a civil case could be brought for dereliction of duty and sad representation as a representative for hunters?

    I learned a long time ago to work your loads up slowly in 5 grain increments. The rifle will poof or woof until you get to the right area and it will then "crack" like a centerfire does. Pellets are just a convenient thing and sometimes a quick 2nd shot option. I have found most of the rifles I...

    Boyds gun stocks

    I had one of those on my 6.5 x 300 and the buttpad kept collapsing on the magnum loads. Imagine that!

    I personally have and old aluminum three piece shotgun cleaning rod with a 20 guage brass or bronze wire brush that I use to clean the barrel. You can find old shotgun cleaning kits pretty cheap at rummage sales or what not. I remove the breech plug after a shot and spray down the barrel from...

    Blackhorn 209 issues.

    I did put a variflame adapter breech plug in and use LR primers. They do burn cleaner. I do not use BH209, had at one time, but too expensive for my cheap butt. I'd rather shoot a lot of rounds trying to figure it out and maybe burn two pounds of 777. Maybe I just like trigger time, but I do...

    Worst thing about leaving them loaded besides the safety aspect is most powders are highly corrosive. Is the barrel clean or all pitted?

    Take a sturdy rod( old shotgun cleaning rod) and put in the muzzle end and drive the Bullet and plastic out the breech if thats possible. You might need a hammer. Then clean it real good and learn how to do it properly. The bullet is probably a common skirted bullet. Do not know why they would...

    What's your rule of thumb for changing COAL?

    While it is true that I find most of my best loads near the max, not every rifle is the same. I tend to start in the middle of the powder ranges and work up .3 or .4 gr at a step. In my experience roughly 1 in 4 likes lower powder charges.
