    Anyone need a 2024 Hodgdon Annual Reloading Manual? Got it free with my latest Midway order but turns out I already have one. Still new in wrapper. Yours for the low, low cost of postage.

    Powder Puff Loads for Small Game

    If not already clear, the middle of the offseason is driving me up the wall. So today's daydream was powder puff loads suitable for grouse or other small game for a standard centerfire cartridge that I'd otherwise be carrying for deer or elk. I'm thinking 10ish grains of Blue Dot and dacron or...

    Wilderness First Aid

    As backcountry hunters, the ability to apply first aid to ourselves or others can be a matter of life or death. I took the NOLS Wilderness First Aid a few years ago and found it pretty useful for basic info. Most of my classmates were college kids working at summer camps or the granola crowd. I...

    Case Forming?

    I'm currently gathering components for my first true wildcat to be built-- a 25-7 PRC built on a (you guessed it) Tikka action. I'm picking up a 25 WSSM die to handle the initial neckdown but I'll need 3 fired cases for custom dies to be built to match the chamber. In the past, I've...

    H4895

    Fully understand H4895 is about as obtainable as fairy dust right about now, but if anyone has a pound or two to spare within a 12 hour drive of the front range I'd be interested in buying it. Face to face only.

    Faster Powder For Hammers?

    If I could, would like to pick the brains of y'all that have had success loading Hammers. My deer load for my .257 Ackley last year was a 100gr. Barnes over AA4350 doing 3050fps from a 21inch barrel. I was really hoping to be in the 3200fps range. This year, I'm going to experiment with the...

    Cabeza de venado?

    Had some pretty good beef cabeza tacos last night and it got me to thinking about doing the same with deer or pronghorn. Would really like to start using every edible bit from what I shoot. Anyone saving heads and cooking them whole (or otherwise)? If so, how are you preparing them?
