    Random question - Aoudad table fare

    Thank you for all of the input. I was just hoping for it to be edible, so i can shoot one in good conscience. Message received... marinate and grill the loins and t-loins. The rest is Burger, jerky, tacos, and stew ! @madtom, thats a good looking ram !!

    Random question - Aoudad table fare

    I’ve had a drive to hunt Aoudad sheep for years. It’s probably my only practical means to sheep hunt given the cost and that I don’t live in the west (live in NC). But i digress. I’m wondering if anyone has experience with the table fare of the Aoudad. I have a seriously difficult time with...

    Favorite Primer Talk

    Same same for me. I started with cci’s, probably because thats what the store had in stock when i started. Then i read somewhere, or someone, like my dad had a friend, and his neighbor, who had an uncle, his brother-in-law, 38 years ago, read in a magazine, said that the Federal Match were...

    Trade or sell Components.

    @mtmuley and anyone (everyone) else, i have several quart bags, of 270 Win brass, all once-fired by me, former factory ammo, decapped, Remington, Hornady, Winchester, Federal, all separated by brand. Over 100 of each (happy to count ‘em for whoever is interested). Willing to sell them or trade...

    I recall the extra special trips to the grocery store when my mom would allow me to get a F&S issue from the news stand.

    Weird thing - Reloading

    Velocity, as you mentioned was less. I likened it to shooting a spit ball through a straw. When it fits tight in the straw, you need a bit more pressure behind it to get it to move and it shoots further, as opposed to the spit-ball that doesnt fit well in the straw. I only shot 4 shots, in...

    Weird thing - Reloading

    Circling back after a trip to the range today. I loaded 3 in the magazine to see if seating depth would change due to recoil. I fired 1 shot, then pulled and measured the ones in the mag. 1 changed length. Did it two more times firing twice each time and measuring each time. Each time, one...

    Cold weather gloves/mittens

    I picked up those giant stand-hunter mittens from Cabelas. Probably nowhere near the caliber of the others on this thread but they work pretty well in bitter cold wind. Throw away the liners that accompany them though.

    Gloves and liners... again...

    I also picked up Sitka Jetstream gloves from MountainArchery.com. They’ll be mid season gloves i think, water resistant too.

    Gloves and liners... again...

    I found that if the mechanix gloves get wet, they soak through and you end up with cold wet hands.

    Weird thing - Reloading

    @winmag , thanks for the insight. My hunt trip this year consists of day hunts and i carry 10-ish rounds in a wallet type carrier, so I’m not too worried about that them banging around in a pack. And if i go through all of them without a deer, I’m calling it a day😂. I’m thinking that for my...

    Weird thing - Reloading

    First, yes, the bushing is in the die. I always give it a shake to be sure that i can hear it. Oh, The necks arent cracked. I went back and looked closely with magnifiers. I should hope they arent after 1 firing of new brass. It’s sounding like the neck wall thickness is probably the culprit...

    Weird thing - Reloading

    I just measured neck wall thickness for the top .060” of the case mouth, the approx amount that the bullets would slip into the case. Difference is about 0.001 between old once fired brass vs this new once fired brass. When i set up the die, i set it to squeeze the bullet by about .001, so it...

    Weird thing - Reloading

    Only 1 loading. I did come to realize that this was a recently purchased new box of brass, and the only firing on them was its first firing. I’m wondering now if the case mouths were a bit thinner than my previously used brass, also Nosler, but purchased new more than a year ago

    Weird thing - Reloading

    A weird thing happened that hasnt happened to me before. I was loading once fired Nosler brass for my 270 Win. I neck sized using Forster neck sizing die, same as I’ve been doing for the past few years. I dont recall the bushing size but it sizes enough that i get 0.001 radial squeeze on the...

    Once In a Lifetime

    Reading this was like watching a suspense thriller. I heard myself say “you’re killing me here, Smalls”!😂 Check out the recipe on the side of the Montreal Steak container. Really tasty on rare grilled steaks!
