    Woodworking Hunt Talkers?

    I have been tempted to go into mass production but I really think it would take all the fun out of it. It would cease to be a hobby and turn into work. Work is one of the things that make me enjoy hobbies. Being good at something is akin to having a pickup truck, people find you useful, Ha! I...

    Idaho Fish and Game commissioner charged with poaching bull elk

    I wonder if a civil case could be brought for dereliction of duty and sad representation as a representative for hunters?

    I learned a long time ago to work your loads up slowly in 5 grain increments. The rifle will poof or woof until you get to the right area and it will then "crack" like a centerfire does. Pellets are just a convenient thing and sometimes a quick 2nd shot option. I have found most of the rifles I...

    Boyds gun stocks

    I had one of those on my 6.5 x 300 and the buttpad kept collapsing on the magnum loads. Imagine that!

    I personally have and old aluminum three piece shotgun cleaning rod with a 20 guage brass or bronze wire brush that I use to clean the barrel. You can find old shotgun cleaning kits pretty cheap at rummage sales or what not. I remove the breech plug after a shot and spray down the barrel from...

    Blackhorn 209 issues.

    I did put a variflame adapter breech plug in and use LR primers. They do burn cleaner. I do not use BH209, had at one time, but too expensive for my cheap butt. I'd rather shoot a lot of rounds trying to figure it out and maybe burn two pounds of 777. Maybe I just like trigger time, but I do...

    Worst thing about leaving them loaded besides the safety aspect is most powders are highly corrosive. Is the barrel clean or all pitted?

    Take a sturdy rod( old shotgun cleaning rod) and put in the muzzle end and drive the Bullet and plastic out the breech if thats possible. You might need a hammer. Then clean it real good and learn how to do it properly. The bullet is probably a common skirted bullet. Do not know why they would...

    What's your rule of thumb for changing COAL?

    While it is true that I find most of my best loads near the max, not every rifle is the same. I tend to start in the middle of the powder ranges and work up .3 or .4 gr at a step. In my experience roughly 1 in 4 likes lower powder charges.

    What's your rule of thumb for changing COAL?

    Don't make it harder than it has to be. Start 10% below max and move up until you are happy with accuracy or you hit pressure signs. Make sure your mag and chamber will accept 2.8 first.

    Old truck appreciation (and high mileage)

    No pic, 2005 F250 with the dreaded 6.0. Bought cheaper than a wore out 1/2 ton gasser at GSA auction. 70,000 miles on it. 70,800 put #6 injector tip in piston. Oh crap, I probably just lost an engine. No, the mechanic says, we replaced the injector, changed the oil, just drive it til it dies and...

    Hunting Rifle Triggers

    I have put a couple of Timneys on 700's and 788's. I like them but if you set them too light, when you try to line up on a moving animal, they might just go off when you getting within 10' of them when aiming. Don't ask how I know this. No real danger but the pull got adjusted a little heavier...

    Woodworking Hunt Talkers?

Need to take it and see if its wide enough and at what height to add the arm rest at. 17" tall, 9" wide seat, 20" laminated black walnut runners. I made one of these 25 ? yrs ago but cannot...
