    Blackhorn 209 issues.

    You don't need to swab with BH209. Blackhorn still fouls; even smokeless powder fouls a barrel.

    ACTION ALERT: CPW Commission vote on fur ban

    Nice quote in there: “I’ve seen better demonstrations of parliamentary procedure and objectivity in the average 4-H meeting,” he said. “Your actions and behavior yesterday did more to destroy trust than any single action in the history of the CPW or this commission.”

    ACTION ALERT: CPW Commission vote on fur ban

    I’m sure today is going about the same as yesterday. If there is one thing they know less about than wildlife management, it’s firearms.

    ACTION ALERT: CPW Commission vote on fur ban

    They just saw that they can do whatever the hell they want, and don't have to root it in anything other than their personal opinions. I fear the worst.

    ACTION ALERT: CPW Commission vote on fur ban

    The anti-hunter commissioners kept saying they need specific population data by species, and until they have that they want to ban the harvest of furbearers. Why would that even matter? There is already sound biological data that all furbearer species are stable in Colorado. That would just be...

    ACTION ALERT: CPW Commission vote on fur ban

    This commission completely disregards biological science in favor of social science. They made no attempt to hide this. They looked CPW in the face and said no, we know better than you biologists, and we'll do as we please.

    Case prep question, not sure what to do

    It doesn’t matter. You can run the case into a neck sizing bushing and then ream the inside, or you can run the neck over a mandrel then turn the outside. You can push the excess material to the inside or outside with a bushing or mandrel, respectively. This is the same process for eliminating...

    Help with NAPF Gun Raffle?

    I'd buy the ticket, keep the rifle if I won, pass on the hunt if I had to burn points.

    Pre-64 Model 70s

    For some Winchester firearms you can obtain a factory letter from the Buffalo Bill Center of the West (who currently has the records with details on everything about the gun) including where it was shipped. Unfortunately not for the Model 70. Basically everything goes off of characteristics and...

    Hammer vs Barnes question???

    Hammers are faster due to lower engraving pressure/friction and therefore higher velocity before you hit overall pressure limits. More shock to game upon impact. More accurate, both in bullet to bullet uniformity and on the target. Having said all that, if Hammer's didn't exist I'd shoot Barnes...
