    10lb rifle for elk hunting

    I have a HOWA 1500 280AI in a Stocky's carbon stock. It is a nice setup, but not adjustable. I have neck and shoulder issues and need all the adjustability I can get. I ordered a chassis system for it. The current weight with scope is 8.5lbs. The change in stock will add an additional 2...

    Help me out on a Ruger American Gen2 Build

    So, I was not planning on getting another rifle, but the PX had a 20% off sale going on and had a Ruger American Gen2 Predator in 308 Win. I got it for $400, no tax. I just could not pass it up. I am wanting to do a chassis hunting rig. Trying to keep it fairly light, maybe 8 lbs with scope...

    25-45 Sharps - Looking for Info from shooters

    I have an AR I am looking at rebarreling. I was planning on the 300 HAM'r, but I have decided on the 25-45 Sharps for personal reasons. It is the last deer hunting caliber my dad has shot and he took his buck of a lifetime with it a couple of years back. He just glows about it because he has...

    What increments do y'all use when seating depth testing. I have heard folks doing as little as .003 and Barnes says .015. Would love to hear thoughts.

    30-06 175 SMK H-4350 question

    Question...looking at loading some 175 grain Sierra TMKs in 30-06. Hodgdon lists 55 grains of H-4350 as the starting load. Sierra lists 55 grains as the top load before the round is compressed. I have not run into such a difference before. Anyone loaded this before? If so, what grains...

    168 Speer Gold Dot 30-06 Load

    Anyone have a load for the 168 grain Speer Gold Dot in 30-06? Speer does not list it because it is considered a "self-defense" round. Thanks.

    I am loading for a session tomorrow with 150 grain Sierra FN. I am planning on testing 2 powders. Lever is a given. However, I have 3 other powders in the stable. Would like to know any results for other reloaders on these and suggestions on which one to try first. H-4895 IMR-4895 CFE-223...

    Rossi R95 Review

    Took a chance and got one of the new Rossi R95 rifles in a 20 inch. Topped with a Leupold 2-7x33 VX-Freedom. I was not disappointed. Action is smooth, like no other lever action I have handled. Trigger has just a little take up with a crisp break. No need for a trigger job. Best are the...

    BOSS 20 gauge 2 3/4" #5 for ducks

    I hunt small water for wood ducks. I recently ordered a Beretta A300 Ultima and plan on using it exclusively for duck hunting. I did quite a bit of research on suggested 20 gauge non-toxic loads. I was really impressed with the BOSS shotshells and the company in general. After reading, I...

    Upland 20 gauge recommendations

    Hi. I am setting up a hunt on a nearby game preserve for me and my late son's best friend. It will be very special. This hunt is for pheasant, chukkar and quail. I don't have an upland shotgun. I would like to buy an semi-auto gas operated 20 gauge for this hunt, and maybe future hunts...

    What rifles are the least picky with ammunition?

    I will go first...I have a Ruger American in 6.5 Creedmoor. That rifle has grouped well with every ammunition, factory and handloads. Whenever doing load development, I have never seen any groups more than 1.25 MOA. All of my other rifles (some very expensive) range from somewhat picky to very...

    Ruger American Ranch - Which Caliber?

    They have the rebate going now for $100. Been looking at ranch rifles for a while. Don't really need one, but with the price. Just don't know which caliber. I reload for all listed except the 7.62x39. What caliber and why?
