  1. Anybody got any cool non shooting habits?

    Once Baseball starts, Don't get time to do the other 2 or go shoot. At least for high school ball you just have to go to the games and not practice.
  2. 7mm-08 reloading question

    I have two 7mm-08's. Same thing. One will shoot Varget and not 4350. The other won't shoot Varget and shoots 4350. You hope they will shoot the same thing to simplify things, but NOOO. I also have two 270's same thing with them. One shoots 4831 and he other one shoots 4350. Rifles are...
  3. 7mm-08 reloading question

    I load 140 Partitions and 41 or 42 Grns of Varget (can't remember off the top of my head). I load Partitions for the hog factor. If it wasn't for hogs and how thick it is where we hunt I probably wouldn't shoot Partitions. I also have a Leupold scope with a B&C Reticle and that loads hits...
  4. The Perfect Deer Rifle

    I am a standard long action guy. 30-06, 270, 6.5-06. And I think the Ackley's are cool too. My favorite deer caliber is the good ol 270 Win. If I could have only one deer caliber, 270 hands down. My favorite deer rifle I own is a Remington 700 in 270 Win. I got it off a guy walking around...
  5. HAPPY THANKSGIVING

    Be thankful if you get to spend Thanksgiving with your family. I think about that every year now that I am with mine, and remember the Thanksgivings I was not at home for. I also think about the ones that are serving abroad today and can't be with their families.
  6. 30-06 compatibility with RE 26

    KMart, I looked on Hodgon's web sight for 150's, that StaBALL 6.5 is hauling ass. So are a few others. If you could find any of them. I load IMR 4350 with 150 Tipped Barnes in my 06. It shoots good so never tried anything else. If you ever come thru DFW I'll trade that RL26 for some H4350. LOL
  7. 25-06.... Why?

    When I think of Elk and Hogs, the 25-06 is not what comes to mind. Why not add a muzzle break? I know they are loud but, they do calm down the recoil. Why not a 30-06 with a muzzle break? I haven't killed many elk but I have killed a lot of big boars in Texas and we have had some hog rodeos...

    They need to watch this video more than once. And learn from it.

  11. Off Topic: Ram 2500 Power Wagon

    Buddy of mine has an 2018, so not 19. They had to change out the transition on it at 65k. Not sure if 8 speed or 6. The only other drawback he doesn't like and I wouldn't either is when loaded or pulling a heavier trailer, the truck rocks back and forth on the back end. We hauled 15 50# bags...
  12. The GREATEST letter ever written

    That's awesome. Congrats to the young Marine. I did the same thing, same place 27 years ago. They started out making us write letters home with crayons, but the other recruits kept eating them. Then we got "Ink Sticks" (Ink Pens.) LOL! That will be one of the most memorable things in...
  13. Optimal Humidity for Gun Room?

    50% humidity is the rule of thumb for almost all environments from "comfort cooling", most industrial and medical applications. If you shoot for 50% your covered.
  14. Got 2 Shots Of Moderna & Tested Positive Today

    Wish you well and take care of yourself. My son was 16 back in December. We rode 4 hrs in the truck to the deer lease stayed in a travel trailer together all weekend, even hunted in the same deer stand for about 4 hours one morning. That afternoon he said he wasn't feeling to good and said it...
  15. Barnes 130 ttsx

    I have shot the TTSX in quite a few calibers. They defiantly like a jump.
  16. Who Taught You How To Shoot?

    I didn't grow up shooting much. My dad would take me dove hunting on my great grandparents farm but gripe about how much the shells cost. I used to always want to be on a deer lease or go deer hunting. He would just say it was all a waist of money. I bought a Marlin .22 when I was in high...
  17. Wonder where all the ammunition is?

    This was in Dallas a few weeks ago. I thought, You got to be Sh*t'n Me! $200 for 1000 Primers!
  18. Weather? I apologize to all Texans!

    I just got my electric bill from last months freeze. It wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be. $296.00 for an all electric house. I turned my heat pump off when ambient temp hit about at 28 degs and was running straight electric heat thru the freeze. I heard some real horror stories...
  19. Texas Cold Weather Discussion

    I heard on the radio that Texas has 70 power plants that are not being used. I know a few years ago they shut down Fairfield and Monticello. I am a HVAC Contractor in Fort Worth. We mainly do commercial HVAC. We also take care of a few residence for customers homes and people we know...
