    Need help for Barnes 168 gr 30’06 for elk

    Nah, that's my .270, born 50 years ago this year. Still shoots really straight with factory loads.

    That certainly is an option. Mostly I want to see if adjusting the loads will help accuracy. Plus I have about 8 boxes of brass laying around.

    I think you guys are right about this. I reached out to a friend here in town and he has the stuff, including the powder so the experiment will start this weekend.

    Any thoughts on primers? Also, for experimenting, would you increase the powder by 1 or 2 grains? According to Barnes, imr 4350 can vary from 53 to 57.5, the latter being compressed. 4350 powder is out of stock at midway, etc

    That's good info. I'll be using brass from the manufacturer that has only been shot one time. How much does shooting it a second time affect things?

    Thanks. I didn't know this. What do you mean "don't switch back and forth."? Do you mean clean barrel before trying a new load?

    Need help for Barnes 168 gr 30’06 for elk

    Hello I’ve only reloaded once in my life. I know very little about powders, loads, etc. I have a ton of 30’06 brass and a friend said he’d help me reload it when I visit for Christmas. The downside is that I only go over there once a year, so experimenting with different loads will be a slow...

    Beware of Scammers on the Classifieds Section!

    Last year or so somebody figured out my password and took over my “RobG” account. He offered for sale some top end equipment for a low price. I’ve been around here for a long time so a lot of people knew me. Someone could have easily been scammed since they thought they were dealing with me...

    Seth Bodnar - independent US Senate candidate

    I tried to get info on Bankhead's positions on her website. She has statements that rotate through the screen, but they don't linger long enough for you to read them. In other words, she can't even raise enough money for a decent website, yet people are adamant about voting for her over Seth...

    Withdrawal calculator

    I think a Roth is more valuable during retirement than saving a little tax money now. At least it's worked out that way for me. YMMD. Bonasababy brought up a real good point about large unexpected expenses, which can sting a lot if you have to pay it with taxable money. That's a great reason for...

    Withdrawal calculator

    I don't disagree with the others, but this something you should talk with an advisor with, or do a lot of studying. How you build your IRAs depends a lot on your circumstances and needs. A large growth fund like SCHG might be appropriate for you, but it would be totally inappropriate for me...

    A Quack to remember

    I take it Sage is still repairing the XP? They couldn’t do anything about my LL.

    Never bone out shoulder again

    Ironically, I went down to dinner and DW had cooked up some antelope flat irons. We didn’t take the big inner sinew out so they were a little thicker, but you did have to cut the meat off that piece of sinew.

    Never bone out shoulder again

    Before you boil up all those blades, try taking the flat-iron steak out of them.
