I ordered a few things from Midway USA the other day. One of them being "factory overrun Sierra Game Kings 7mm 150grain". Well, my order arrived today and, I guess I'm no bulletsmith, but these ain't GameKings. I measured and weighed them - they are 7mm and 150gn. But they look like a Fusion...
I'm interested in seeing if I can get my .284 Win to shoot a little heavier bullet. So far all I've tried 160gn NABs with H4350. I'd say the outcome was mediocre. Before I try something else I thought I'd put out the question for others that load and shoot a .284. What do you use for 160gn...
I was kind of appalled when I went to the landfill yesterday and saw this laying off to the side:
Maybe this was roadkill, but I'm not sure why someone would gut and skin roadkill. I can't imagine that this wouldn't be considered waste of game. I seriously considered calling the Game...
I'm not a big shotgun guy, but I recently acquired a Remington 870 with a rifled slug barrel. Any recommendations on slugs/ammo for such a thing? I might use it in a deer hunt out here where we live.
It has always been fascinating to me how natural and innate is the connection between canine and human. This is a picture of my 15-y/o daughter and a boxer puppy we just adopted from the rescue.
I'm more or less on the lookout for my next build. The .277 Sig Fury is a contender and I noticed X-Caliber has it as an option in Rem-Age barrels. Anybody have one?
I haven't tried them, but they seem to have a growing and dedicated fan base. Everyone that loads them seems to love them. Why are they so good? Accuracy? Performance on game?
My son's .243 really shoots the heck out of that stuff but I haven't seen it available for over a year. Seen it in quite a few other calibers, but not .243. Anybody know where I could score some?
We've got this poor old boxer named Rigby. He's 13, which is awful old for the breed, been our great camping and hiking companion for a long time. My oldest daughter can remember when we adopted him, but my other 2 kids can't remember a time he wasn't around. They've grown up with him. And...
On Monday evening I had what is apparently called a TIA - Transient Ischemic Attack. All I knew was that largely out of the blue the left side of my face, eye especially, was burning and itching for no reason and I couldn't walk right, talk right, and I had to concentrate to do anything with my...
My wife is looking to get back into doing some backpacking, so we've been looking for some lightweight gear for her. Only problem is she has a weird, and rather violent allergy to polyester, which of course is in everything. Any ideas on some lightweight equipment, sleeping bag specifically...
