I'm looking to upgrade to an inline closed ignition, that uses musket caps and has open sights. 50 cal and will be using lee 320 real bullet, no sabots or 209 primers allowed in OR. I'm looking for suggestions.
Bought a tle/rl ii 45 acp, came with 7 kimber mags, one colt mag, 5 boxes of winchester pdx hp ammo, 16 rounds fmj, 8 loose rounds of win hp ammo, a blackhawk holster and dual mag carrier for 600.00 from a buddy that lost interest in 45 and wanted a new 9mm. he paid 1018.49 in 2013 for the...
I am down to my last couple of boxes of nosler 45 grn sp boattail bullets. I'm just wondering if there is another good hornet bullet guys on here recommend. my gun has 1in 16" rifling twist.
I recently got a Browning Abolt Medallion 22 Hornet, It came with a tasco 4-16x40 which is a big scope. I am thinking of a smaller scope such as a leupold 3-9x33 or a burris timberline 4.5-14x32. or any other smaller compact scope. Just looking for suggestions and opinions. Thanks
I just won an online auction for a Browning Micro Medallion abolt in 22 hornet. I have been shooting my 22 hornet H&R 157 since I has 14 yrs old. (47 now) had to get a new barrel for it a decade ago. So when I saw a browning bolt action I put a bid in and won. Anyone have experience with the...
SO I won an online auction for a JM- 1894 marlin CB 357 with 24" barrel. So I already reload 38 specials with 158/160 grn swc plain base that I cast, and I have 3k wadcutters I was given for free. They both shoot great in my S&W heavy duty 38/44. Anyone one out there have info on 1894 marlin...
Just wondering if anyone has a good elk load for 264wm, I will be using 140 grn partitions, with either retumbo or r.s. magnum. Might be hunting idaho this yr and know shots will be longer than western oregon.
A co-worker/friend hadn't hunted since he was a kid but 3 years ago wanted to get back into it. last year he used his sister-in law's 270. His Sister got him a Savage 270 this past year. He wanted a 270 since thats what his dad used. I got a scope mounted on it for him and loaded him up some...
I picked up some retumbo powder to give it a try with my 264wm. I was planning on using some 130 accubonds. I noticed Hodgon says max load is 64.1 grains with that bullet but a Hornady 129 grn is 67.5 grain. That seems a huge difference. Anyone using Retumbo with 130 accubonds? What load are...
Is it just me or was the load for rel 15 with 250 grn bullet, taking less powder I 'm refering to newer load manuals. It looks like 200 and 225 are the same. 59.5 w 200 grn bullet, 59 grns of rl15 w/ 225 grn , and 53 grns with 250 grn bullet. Or am I just imaging things. I'm at work so cant...

Just wondering if anyone uses the 20 for predators. Years ago when I got my first shotgun I got a box of Federal supermag 3" copperplated #2 buffered shot. Wish I had bought several boxes at the time because I only have a few rounds left. What do you guys use?
So I picked up a thunderhawk 50 cal, the barrel is badly pitted and barely can see the rifling. When I got it is was very dirty. It is beautiful on the outside after cleaning it up, inside the barrel is ugly. At 25 yards its doesnt group on a piece of 3'x3' cardboard. I plan to take it out one...
