    ????Ruger No. 1????

    I have a Ruger #1 in .243. When I first bought it, it was slightly used (had less than 50 shots through it) and the owner said it "wouldn't group worth a damn". He was right, I took it to the range that day, fired a couple of groups with the ammo he gave me, and got a 3 1/2" 5 shot group. The...

    Question on .243 ballistic tips.

    IMR's website lists the following for a 100 grain bullet: IMR 4320 39.5 grains 2950fps 52000 cup This is the max load. Since your bullet is 5 grains lighter, pressures for the same powder charge should be lower. I would suggest starting about 10% lower than this max, and start creeping...

    Which caliber for cast bullets? Not just for cast bullet shooters..Survival question

    I would choose the .308. If it is a matter of no ammo available, just remember, the government uses .308 and .223 ammo, so there will always be some source for brass, if not fully loaded ammunition.

    World record antelop

    Deacon, One reason it may not look that impressive is because we're lacking a bit of scale in the photo. Look closely at the goat, and compare it to the man. That is a BIG pronghorn. The horns look big, but because you're comparing them to the goat, which is also big, they don't look as...

    Poaching

    A moose in ND is a once in a lifetime draw. Literally. Many hunters apply for a tag, and their wife also "applies" for one. If the wife draws a tag, guess who goes moose hunting? I'm not saying it's right, but's that how it is. It's legal here, and I've heard of people who sold their tags...

    Hand Priming Tools

    I was priming some .260 Rem cases this morning, and the handle broke on my Lee Auto Primer AGAIN. (Third time) I'm tired of the pot metal stuff they make this tool out of. I love the design and the "feel", but it's frustrating when this happens. Since this has happened before, I always have...

    For 180 gr. Nosler Partitions, my MAX load is 73 grains of IMR 4350, W-W case, Remington 9 1/2M primer. Average velocity readings on the Oehler are 3,091 fps, 3 shot group size average (10 groups)of 1.28" at 100 yards in my Ruger Model 77 Mk II. This load is rather warm. Proceed with caution...

    Poaching

    Party hunting is still legal in some southern states, but they are getting to be fewer and fewer. This guy (on topic) pretty much got what was coming to him, but in some places, one could expect more of a punishment for poaching a bear than for killing a human. Maybe this should go on the...

    .22 Centerifres

    I've used both a .223 and a .22-250 for rodents and 'yotes, and I am a big fan of the .22-250. Flatter shooting, less finicky (at least in my rifle) and a real confidence builder, you can't beat it. Both of my rifles are basically identical Remington heavy barrelled varminters, and by having...
