338 WBY RPM- newest cartridge
So Weatherby announced it's newest cartridge to bear the family name, the 338 WBY RPM. Not much out there, but what I could find, is that it's made to work in their Mark V Backcountry 2.0 line, and duplicate the 338WM in performance. Shooting a 225gr. bullet at @ 2800fps. Thoughts? -
2021 Going down as a rough year for NJ deer
EHD is quite the killer here in NJ. Probably the worst I've ever seen. The NJF&W has stated at least 60% of the deer population affected, numbers may be higher in some areas. During the archery season, only saw a few small doe, and this last week, the NJ 6-day firearms season was eerily quiet in... -
124gr. Hammers,270Win
So I recently bought a trial pack of 124gr Hammers to try in my 270. I don’t have enough powder for a ladder test, so I loaded up 5 rounds using Barnes load data for 129 LRX using Hunter powder. Using 57grs, I chrono’d a 5 shot average of 3180fps out of my Savage with a 22” barrel. At 100yds the...- GlockZ

Meopta riflescopes
Anyone ever use or has a Meopta riflescope they like? Was looking at one the other day, thought it was a nice scope, with good glass. Not that I have a need for one, (as of yet), but was just wondering if anyone uses one on a regular basis. -
The new Winchester 6.8 Westerner
Seems like Winchester is introducing a new cartridge, looks like a modified 270WSM, also notice it calling for a .277 caliber, 175gr. bullet @ 2850fps out of a 24” barrel. I’m a big 270 fan so this is interesting to me. From what I found on the web, SAAMI specs have already been approved. What...- GlockZ

Which would you choose?
I narrowed down my 2 choices for a bino pack to either the AGC Classic Max or the Badlands XR. I’m not interested in any other kind, which would you choose. Why? Thanks. -
Montana Rifle Co. is shut down
Just saw on the internet on G&A's website that MRC has ceased operation. This is sad news, while I've never owned a rifle built by them, a know a few people that do, and they are really nice rifles. Hopefully they'll be able to restructure and come back into operation. -
Best powder for 338WM?
Just wondering what everyone is using powder wise for the 338WM when reloading? I've been using H4350 & IMR 4350 for a while now with good results. Have been floating back & forth between the Nosler 200gr. CT & AB , and also the 210 gr. PT. Have tried the Hornady SST's in 225gr., not very...- GlockZ

New Traditions NitroFire muzzleloader
I guess Traditions teamed up with Federal and Hodgdon and came out with a rather interesting new muzzle loader. There is something called a fire stick that is a self contained plastic container that’s holds the powder charge and is inserted into the breech, thereby eliminating the breech plug...- GlockZ

New Savage Ultra light rifle
Was just checking out the Savage website, they are now offering a ultralight rifle! Should be a game changer for sure, looks like they teamed up with Proof Research for a carbon barrel, and the prices are definitely doable! Some interesting calibers being offered as well, 280AI, 28 Nosler & 6.5PRC. -
338-06, I think this is the one...
I've been wanting to build a rifle of my own, but couldn't decide on a caliber, there are so many out there! After doing quite a bit of research, I think I've found the one, the 338-06. From what I've been able to find, the 338-06 should fill my wants. Anyone else shoot this caliber? Would like... -
24 Nosler? A 27 Nosler????
I just happened to be surfing the Nosler website and noticed something interesting. They now sell brass for the 24 Nosler! When did this happen? What's it based on? Also while making my rounds on the web, apparently there is a very strong rumor out there, where Nosler will be releasing a 27...- GlockZ

Sights bottomed out, now what?
So this year I decided to spend some money and got the Black Eagle Rampage arrows. For years I've shot the Beman ICS Hunters without issue, now to adjust for the new arrows I've had to bottom out the sight. At 20 yards, I'm good, at 30 yards, I'm good, beyond that it's a hit but low, around 2... -
357 Magnum loads for hunting
Don't see much on here when it comes to pistol hunting, but I do enjoy another challenge. I use a Ruger SRH in 480 with a bit of success on deer, and just recently picked a GP-100 in 357 as another interesting way to take deer, and was wondering what loads and bullet combo's some of you are...- GlockZ

338WM bullet choice
I own a Model70, post ‘64 in 338WM. Was wondering if anyone is willing to share their favorite bullet & powder combo. I’m thinking somewhere in the 225 grain bullet range. Currently shooting the Hornady 225gr SST, they’re ok, not really impressed with the way bullets disintegrate on impact on...- GlockZ

boutique broad heads vs. off the shelf broad heads
Just curious to see what's everyone's thoughts about the new trend of selling and using these boutique broad heads? I myself have been using Slick Trick Magnums or Vipers for years and have never had any problems, but now I've seen this past year a surge in advertisement for these what I'd call... -
35 Remington & hard cast lead bullets
Was just curious, does anybody know where I could find load data for 35 Remington shooting either 180 or 200gr hard cast lead bullets? Have been reloading my 35 Rem. using the Hornady 200gr. FTX bullets and they work fine, but am curious if a good load using hard cast bullets could be had. -
Issues with the Bowtech RPM360?
Yesterday morning I was getting ready for opening day of deer season here, and as i picked up my bow case to put in the truck i heard an unusual rattling sound coming from the bow case. Concerned, i opened my bow case up and at first didn't see anything. So i took my bow out and started to...
