    Powder from pulled bullets

    It's faster. When I'm making up a large batch of reloads, I use a powder thrower which also works on volume. I check about every 5 or 10 on the scale and if it's within reason keep chugging along.

    Getting into suppressors

    This is way if I break loose of the funds, one of a reflex design will get a hard look, with the GAP Jager near the top of the list.

    What to cook first?

    I second this suggestion, especially if you are new to smoking. Pork butts are very hard to do wrong. In second place, I'd suggest a brisket. Takes a little bit more attention, but in the end hard to mess up. Best thing for me is to have a meat thermometer and to use it. Cook to temps and...

    Confession: I like birds. A topic about pigeon fancying.

    I could like having some pigeons if I had the place for them. A conservation club I used to belong to had some homers for dog training. Me, the boys, and Hank got a kick out of getting them out of the loft then putting them out for Hank to point. In training Hank, I want some pigeons to shoot...

    Lesser Prairie Chicken

    I had both a male and female in the freezer to get mounted. Funds did not allow and I had a freezer mishap. Quite regret not getting those two mounted.

    Reaching the end?

    Get a new hunting partner. One with 4 legs and preferrably a beard. Train them and help them do what makes them happiest. There's no draws/applications to worry about with small/upland game. Likely won't feel too much pressure if you come home empty handed as taking your new partner out to...

    Powder from pulled bullets

    "Mexican match" used to be a term folks used for surplus ammo where the bullets were pulled and a new bullet of the same weight was loaded. Depending on what bullet you were wanting to load, I'd have just seated the new bullets without dumping and measuring the powder assuming they were 115gr...

    280? 280AI Goldilocks

    The NULA has a 3" magazine length. Most common like the Rem 700 have a 2.8" magazine. Some of the new, sleek, longer bullets will have the ogive below the case mouth and still fit the 2.8" magazine. A Tikka is kinda short for a long action, making it a decent fit. IIRC a Winchester 70 short...

    Rain pants vs gaiters?

    I voted both, but my gaiters see a whole lot more use than my rain britches. But, when I've used my rain pants I've been very happy to have them. I use them sparingly enough that I haven't spent big money on any. The ones I have are from Red Ledge and have a full length leg zipper. I find...

    Best 0.5 cal ammo for muzzleloaders, whitetail

    For whitetails in a 50cal ML, I'd just use whatever shoots best. IMO/E it will be more than good enough. That said, I've had good luck with the powerbelts. One thing I like about them is they are kinda like a sabot, but all in one piece. They don't come apart in the possibles bag/speed...

    280? 280AI Goldilocks

    I'd only go with the 284 Win if the magazine is 3" or longer. For the bullets I'm interested in for a 7mm, I'd go -08 version if shorter than 3". IMO, the Tikka would be great set up as a 284 Win. Have thought about having my 260 Rem rechambered to 6.5X284, but too many projects in front of...

    Pheasant Gun: 20 gauge or 12?

    I think TSS could have some great advantages for pheasants. Would allow for smaller shot, which could mean higher densities at wider patterns. Some 9s in an improved cylinder or skeet choke might work super for pheasants. I know I'd benefit from a wider pattern that is still dense enough to...

    Favorite hunting memory

    Too hard to pick a favorite, but here are a couple that stand out... Though it's been over 30yrs ago, I can still remember the look on my Dad's face when we found my first buck. I really remember the pride in that look. Fast forward a bunch of years and I'm sitting in my treestand with my...
