    358 winchester

    The cool thing about the 358 is you don’t need premium bullets to work. Great short range thumper.

    7MM-08, max range for deer/elk?

    It will shoot as far as you can. I use mine on steel out to 1000yds but would never do that at an animal. 450yds is my max range at an unwounded animal in ideal conditions. The 708 easily fits in that.

    For you bighorn experts, let's play the annuli game

    My daughter took this in her back yard this weekend. 4-5yr old? I don’t know how much length they put on in the first two years but the bases look like a lot of mass to me. I just shoot goats, so these sheep look like moose to me.

    Spend my Bonus - Part Deux

    An 8 twist 22-250? Yeah, keep that and shoot the barrel out. Absolutely no reason not to. I'd shoot 62gr ELD-VT and never look back. Once you've shot the barrel out, get a 7 twist in whatever headstamp you feel like.

    "Not Your Grandpa's Savage"

    An interesting auction of a few of "Gramps' Savages". https://www.rockislandauction.com/catalog/4094/savage-arms-corporation/ Doubt you'll ever see todays Savages in any meaningful auction.

    What is your favorite mobile weather application?

    Windy.com set to the meteogram I'm mostly interested in wind speed and direction as well as ceiling limits.

    "Not Your Grandpa's Savage"

    Yeah. Seems like someone who doesn’t understand hunters/shooters that didn’t grow up with plastic guns or the history of Savage. They used to make heirloom pieces. Now they’re just another also ran.

    "Not Your Grandpa's Savage"

    Yeah. Gramps takedown 99 .250 would be a welcome addition to the safe. I’m sure today’s Savage are more accurate but I’d rather have what they used to make.

    Blending powders

    Next time you’re at a public range, just remember that guy next to you might have been reading about DIY duplex loads and is trying them out for the first time.

    Blending powders

    I don’t shoot other peoples reloads. There’s way too much stupid and incompetence in the world.

    Rimfire cans, what do you have?

    I use dielectric grease on mine. Makes cleanup a lot easier. Use the grease on all threads of all my suppressors as well.

    308 Moses

    Dude, I shoot rifles, I don't build them. Before I pay to have one built I'll dang well know what it is I'm having built. If I change throats on standard cartridges, I certainly want to know what throat an unknown wildcat has before I put my money down. There is nothing magic about cartridge...

    Is there a way to “multi quote” comments?

    I'm not sure which account that is. Is it OK if I just give you all my account numbers and you use the correct one? Or I could wait until my grandson gets home from school to help. I ask him most of my computer questions when I surf the email.

    Is there a way to “multi quote” comments?

    I'm not sure what i just read, but would it help if I gave you my bank account number?

    Primal Rights CPS primer seater

    Yeah, that's the one. Thankfully I got off cheap compared to what he owes a lot of people.
