Makes me sick. Last year there was a massive mule deer shot (at night) just a few miles from me and barely outside the city limits. The...
In Idaho the 270 advocates outnumber the 25-06 by a mile, but there are some devotees to the round. Although its already been said in prior posts...
Great story, congrats. I've hunted deer for 25 years and finally decided to pull the trigger on my first yote this October. With all them dogs...
[ATTACH] Got this whitetail last week, my first big buck
About the only thing I've found (since discovering the carbelite is no longer available) is a McMillan that will accept the larger barrel....
Yes, that would be easier, but no I can't do that. Too much sentimental value. I bought it myself the summer after graduating high school once I...
Confirmed, that is one less option... I thought that was decent backup, but its an old website and the B&C stocks are no longer available through...
So far the only synthetic stock I have found (that fit's my <$300 budget) is the B&C Carbelite model. Really this would be fine, but the channel...
Does Boyd's do synthetic? I've only seen a handful of their stocks in person, they are awesome, but I'd have a hard time wanting to use one for a...
When you tell your wife about being able to buy custom ammo for $5/shot it makes your reloading hobby look sensible!
My current stock is wood and, I should have mentioned this above, I'd prefer to move into synthetic.
I’m looking to re-barrel my Ruger M77 Mark 2 from 30-06 to 280AI. It’s currently stock, but the twist is I’m left handed. I’d like to go from a...
[ATTACH] Shot this little yote while deer hunting last week. About 50 yards with a 165gr SST from my 308. Surprisingly little hide damage, but...
+1 on the Nosler BT. Also had good success with 168gr Hornady SST in my 308. Almost all of the guys in our deer camp shoot one of those two....
Update: Made a trip to the range today and was very pleased with the results. I ordered small base dies and the Hornady headspace comparator,...
I've never measured headspace before, but sounds like it is time to learn. I'll look at getting the tools before long. That and small base dies...
At this point, it sure seems like purchasing small base dies the next logical step. Any other suggestions? Thank you all for the information so far.
Yes, I have setup the dies exactly how RCBS instructs.
I do not have a headspace gauge or case gauge for this cartridge. Is this the best way to determine if the dies simply won't work for this rifle?
After reading about carbon ring I thoroughly cleaned the upper, chamber, and barrel. Have not shot since. Yes, I know the 50gr are not likely...
