Ive been contemplating on pushing the 140gr FTX with lilgun.I think at 2000 +fps
it would be a great vermin round.

m.wun

DITTO!

m.wun

I really enjoy the photos you post but there is something about Old Savage's that seem
to be a cut above!Never the less,keep posting the fine old pictures.Thanx!

m.wun

How many lepords did it take to make the chair?

m.wun

Just to bring this back.I saw in the new American Hunter Mag. that T/C makes a
mini version of its encore in .22lr with a short length of pull, 19" barrel, with peep
sights and weighs around 3lbs.

m.wun

How long are you going to age before cut and wrap??

I have some 7.62 military fmj that seems alittle hot in my Ruger Hawkeye 308.The cases stick slightly but group well.I pulled the bullets and measured the ball powder@ 44gr.I ended up dumping the powder,then loading them back with Re15.My normal load is 47gr and a 150 Interlock which is medium.Speer...

m.wun

Not in 30-30 but in my 308 Ruger Hawkeye they shoot sweet.Right at one inch at 100yrd and chrono at 2800fps and some change.I would love to buy them as a componate to reload my own.Shooting into soaked newsprint,they readily mushroom but seem to hold together well even close range.I would think they...

m.wun

Im sure the price will be high but for a hunting only it might reach out there.The reg FTX
shoots great out of my 1975 336 but I just shoot them at a club shoot.My hunting bullets are
170gr interlocks.The 140 will get a little boost in speed and hold together.Just another one
to play with.

I have a problem with bead sights also.On my 1894c I filed the bead off and flattened the top
into a post type and shrank my shot groups in half.I like the Hi-Viz type sights but wish the
light pipes were finer as my eyes are good.

m.wun

Nice job.Being from Cal also I know how few deer can be.When you can score a buck in a
area with single digit sucess rates youre doing things right.

m.wun

I guess its time to handle a few.Some of the youth rifles look like shortened stocked reg
rifles and then there are some that are completly miniaturized.Im going too keep my eyes out
for the Marlin and Savage.

m.wun

Was looking at the Cricket for my boy but the sights seem very cheap.I did happen to handle a
Henry Minibolt and it felt of much more quality.It also had a set of hi-viz type iron sights.There
are other youth rifles but Im looking for these small framed type.Any ideas?

m.wun

In California (other than no lead areas) the law says a expanding or softpoint only for
large game.

m.wun

I would think they would work as far as they are accurate.I would also think any 35 cal
hole maker could kill a turkey.With a pistol this could be real fun,or a rifle,or a shotgun,or
what ever!

m.wun

Nice! My new Hawkeye SS in 308 does the same thing.In the leadsled of course.

m.wun

Youre what I call a social butterfly.Stopping to check every flower!

m.wun

Can you get some Lilgun powder.I have had great success with it and a 180gr cast.Very
good pressures with 1800fps easily.

m.wun

Being in S.Cal. at work we refer to knee pads as "Holly wood Slippers"

m.wun

Great story and pics!I have the newer version of that gun also in 308,the m77 hawkeye.
Although not necessary you could push that bullet at 2700 with no problem.Congrats!

m.wun

It will soon become a favorate.I got to shoot mine today and every time it gets better.I
hope to take a hog soon with some 180 hardcast gc on top of some lil gun.

m.wun

I think the younger crowd like to think they have somthing specialized for their purpose and for their rig.They market vehicles the same way.There can be two names for truck models but they are the same truck. I also think alot of folks are not going to break scopes because they basicly just sit in ...

m.wun

for my work pants I buy Kirkland jeans at Cosco 13$$ and they are not the thin type.
Also Dickies makes a double knee carpender jean for around 25$.

m.wun

If their big ones they bolth will make you flinch.And only with one of them do you want
a itchy trigger finger!

m.wun

That 375 jdj has always sounded interesting too me.

I recently did some soaked newsprint bullet tests and found the same results between
30-30 and 308 win.
308 150gr factory rem.
30-30 170gr hornady interlocks.
the 30-30 penetrated 8" deeper and a perfect mushroom.
the 308 bullet blew apart and stoped short.

m.wun

I thought it was only in certain counties...

Who is this jklm227 poster????

m.wun

S.S.S.

I have a above ground pool and my wifes puggs pee around it.It reeked so bad untill I
found that Simple Green sells a pet formula in a 1gal. size/ a sprayer for 14$$.This stuff
works great and is bio-degradable.Petsmart sells it.It also works for 2yr old boys.......

m.wun

I pick up brass even if I dont load for it.Many a time I have traded somebody a bag of one
thing for somthing I could use.

These are some wet newsprint results I shot this morning.They where all shot at 30yrd into the same media. 308 win-150 factory coreloc- 13" 30-30-160 ftx @ 2100fps- 11" 30-30-170 Hor Interlock @ 2100fps 18" 357-158XTP-1500fps 8-9" 357-180XTP-1800fps 14" 357-180 Cast Performa...

Pack it up real tight with bubble wrap and newspapper,put it into a long box and call it mini blinds!There is no long gun registration out here yet to even link the gun to an owner.I also was told that out here if a person wanted too transfer a gun between family members that there was no wait and a...

Shooter is correct.50-50 denatured alchcohol and glyceren.My cousin is a taxadermist,and he
rolls the skin up like a ace bandage,puts it into a jar and fills it up.After 2 weeks pulls it out
and drapes it over a line to dry.It should be soft and not lose its color...

m.wun

maybe the rifle should be a 357 instead of the 30-30.I feel my hot loaded 357 has alot
less recoil than any 30-30 loads of mine.158gr at 1600-1800(slightly over factory)would
have better power with little recoil.Only down side I see is trajectory.

m.wun

Take the rifle you can hit with most confidently.We can all say Hunt better and get closer,but
this is a once and a life time tag.Take the first legal animal at the yardage you can make and
enjoy every minute of it.How much fun is it too even have this cal. decision anyway????

m.wun

If the scope is a problem maybe a scout mount or a red dot..

m.wun

I just bought 1k of wolf primers and they seem fine.

m.wun

The big ones can be ground up for sausage..

m.wun

I bought a 17hmr and If I were too buy it again it would be a 22 mag.

m.wun

I ended up loading ten rounds to try.170gr Hornady FP with 31.5 gr of Re15.The Lyman book listed a 32gr load @ 2150 as max.I would be very happy with that bullet @ 2100 or 2000.I also loaded the FTX with 32gr of Re15 and hoping for 21-2200fps.If they both are shooters I will compare them on soaked n...

It has not been touched,totally factory...

Anybody know what a 80-90%,3 screw blackhawk,357,4 5/8" would sell for?

m.wun

Im really enjoying shooting cast in my 1894c.I loaded some Cast Per. 180gc with Lil Gun. They shoot great,although alittle pricy for range shooting.Saving these for hunting,I thought of getting some 158gr Oregon Trail laser cast.I like the LilGun powder but also load with Unique.Im looking for 15-16...

m.wun

I have always liked the looks better than a safe,but there are fire and security concerns.
If there were a steel frame inside the door and maybe some plasma cut decorative steel
sheet in the glass with lights to act as a theft barrier.

m.wun

A little ??? for anyone.I loaded some 30-30 with FTX bullets and 29.8 gr of Re 15. They shot very low and seemed very slow,but grouped real well.This load info was e-mailed to me by Hornady.My speer manual lists a 150gr with 34gr as a max and I know a few load that with the FTX.My ? is does that see...

What type of cherries?I love the Brooks and Rainier type...

m.wun

I like that 58.Very nice to look at but very useable...NICE!!!

m.wun

I recently shot into soaked magazines with 170gr PP win. and then shot with 308win
150gr bonded core.The diffrance in penetration was only about a inch.The bonded bullet
was more violent because of velocity but the 30-30 still penetrated.

I bought a 17hmr five years ago and if I was to do it again I would buy a 22mag...
