    F/S - Athlon Neos Scope 4-12 x 40

    For sale - Athlon Neos 4-12 x 40mm scope. $115.00 shipped, PayPal F&F. Like new in box with everything that came in the box. Was mounted on a 222 for a short time. No ring marks. Got a deal on a different scope is the reason for letting this go. Never hunted with this, only a few bench rounds.

    Shortening MZ barrel?

    Thank you for your work Turbo!! I appreciate it. Thats good velocity from a 20" barrel considering too that its only a 100 grain equivalent load. Yes, I know that I could go to 120 grains volumetric (not sure the weighed amount for that - by a formula about 88.8 grains weighed if my math is...

    Shortening MZ barrel?

    They’re 50 cal, I think 275 or 295. They only make the 1. BH209, 74 grains weighed = 100 grains by volume. I still have no reply from Western Powders.

    Shortening MZ barrel?

    Thanks for the link. I may dig out my POS Chrony & check my current load - 100 volume equivalent of BH 209 (74 grains weighed) and see what velocity I’m getting with the Federal Bor Lock bullets.

    Neat! Hidden Benefit of New Hearing Aids

    Glad that you're happy with them. I've been using them for about 10 years now. Nerve damage in left ear from a childhood accident, 80% hearing loss, especially in voice tones. Right ear decline due to age and shooting guns back when nobody knew you should use hearing protection. Insurance...

    Who here knows Remington 700s?

    If Remington built the barrel, it will say Remington on it and likely, Ilion, NY as well as the caliber, all neatly marked. I can't tell from the photo, but is there a floorplate on the bottom? If yes, then its not an ADL model. BDL's had hinged floorplates, ADL models were blind magazine...

    330 yards with a ML

    T Their rifle list isn't correct if they only want Straight Walled" cartridges. a 35 Whelen and 358 Winchester are bottle necked rounds.

    How accurate were those old Model 37 Ithaca Deerslayers ?

    The Deerslayers were mostly smooth bore with rifle sights. They were designed for foster style slugs. Foster slugs had a "rifling" on the side of them, but it likely didn't impart any spin to the slugs as they deformed upon firing. The base was hollow to also aid in bore sealing. There was a...

    Shortening MZ barrel?

    Thanks folks for the input. I'm thinking of contacting Western Powders as they make the BH 209 powder. I've looked at the Woodman Arms gun on the BWB website. A friends son got a tour of the factory by Mark Woodman himself (my friends son is involved with BWB) recently and Mark built one for...

    Cold feet

    A guy I know applies antiperspirant deodorant to his feet before putting on boots. Carry your heated insoles and put them in at the blind/stand, don’t walk with them in. I have used boot blankets before with good results. Too many socks make boots too tight, thus reducing circulation. But...

    Shortening MZ barrel?

    I’m tired of lugging around a mz with 26 or 28” barrels. After rifle season using my Remington Model 7’s with 18.5” barrels, it’s just unwieldy and adds weight. My shots have always been less than 100 yards and I’m thinking of shortening either a TC Triumph or Traditions Vortek Strikefire 50...
