    One case for all your rifles

    Anybody have several rifles all based on the same cartridge case? I've got a 25-06, 6.5-06 and 30-06. Awful easy to find case's when I need them. Also have a 243, 260, and used a 308 for years. Again, easy to find case's and if you choose military case's, fairly inexpensive to boot. Bullets...

    Inreresting thingnhappened today.

    Hogs

    I like to watch the hog videos on the internet. Watching some where they are trapping them I't quite obvious that a lot of them at a time get killed. Wonder what they do with all of them? had a guy tell me they just throw them in a pit. Got to thinking, why don't they use that meat for the poor...

    Cost of powder.

    Just looking at powder on line. Though about AA 4350 till I got to check out. I thing it was $40 a pound then got to shipping and $35 hazmat fee! OTR truck's can mostly carry 80,000#. That's something close to 3 million dollars for a truckload of 1# cans of powder. Sounds kind of steep to me!

    The perfect rifle

    I was just thinking. We get rifles and completely ho through them to make them as accurate as possible. We get a scope and lap the rings hoping for the best. We pick over bullet's and loads. And with all these thing so many of us do, we still have never seen a rifle that could shoot the perfect...

    Problem with a Vortex scope

    Actually it wasn't the scope itself but rather the mounts. Base's were just a skint to low and allowed the scope to touch under the magnification adjustment ring and just a bit under the front of the barrel. I've shot it like that and it shot fine but got to feeling guilty last night so started...
