I am a big! Nozler part fan I find they work like they are supposed too! they expand fast even at low vel and at high I mean High I have shot game with a 165gr .308 bullet going at 3400fps muzzel vel with them the back half keeps going. Many think the Nozler it a tough bullet it is not it is kinda s...

I have shot yotes at near dark with both the .222 and .308 both with 18.5'' barrels and the flash was bad, I used both BLC2 and 748 but that is through a 10x scope. The best part was the look on my trusty hounds face ya you got him kinda look. Then he would go on about how you cant trust a dog with ...

...if reloading can be worth it, I say YES. You could not convince me otherwise. I've been reloading since, umm... 1971. 71! dam your old! :lol: I was born in 68 and helped more like slave labour my big brother reload ammo in the mid to late 70s I was just a wee lad. Now I know why I shy away from ...

Partiton is the way to go!, but I just like all Nozler PT bullets never had one let me down. I have Shot on average 3 Deer a year for the last 28 years plus the Elk and Moose and Black Bear I have taken and the NP is great Bullet, but I also Shoot Sierra and Speer and RemCL and Hornady cup and Core ...

I have been spending most of my time lately in Argentina and have been enjoying the hunting and fishing opportunities. I have been hunting with Julio Juri from America Hunting. He and I started out as client-outfitter and have since become good friends. I don't get a "finder's fee" for re...

Too me all cals are are easy as long as you have dies and bullets and most important in some of the odd ball cal's is brass. The Smallest I have loaded is 25-20 and they are easy smaller hands would be a good thing though. The biggest is .375 H&H and .404 the .404 was very hard to find bullets f...

Western gun is also the only one I can think of, but some of the biggest gun show's have 92 part's the biggest gun show in Canada is in Calgary Easter Weekend.

I'd change it because I don't think the full stock "is kind of nice". I think it looks like a porch pillar...but that's just my opinion! :lol: True some hate them some like them, like I hate 95 Wins ( just my opinion)Think they are ugly. I say change it to how you like the rifle to look n...

Being a Canuck and having shot a few .303 in my life time :lol: Great to see the old girl's again. I like this post and mention of the Epp's cartridges. I know a guy with a p14 chambered to a 45 something? he uses Norma 45 Basic brass he said it is more gun than a .458Mag. I know the Canadian Ranger...

Ruger did pretty much the same thing, when they made the Ultralite (M77UL) - -the one with the pencil barrel (either with or w/o sights) and slim stock w/black forend tip. http://gastatic.com/UserImages/124813/912445564/pop_wm_2524513.jpg If a standard M77 stock is used, the barrel channel will exh...

I love to travel and go to warm places your homeland is on my list!
but over the years I have talked to the locals in all the places I have been.
I like home! I can deal with the odd day of -40 or wind chill of -50+

I hope it steam's out and is not as bad as the forecast calls for.

brno602

on a second look at the gun it is much like the third pic you posted the X or broad arrow looks like it was double stamped and is right above and to the right or end of the frame above the S&W logo on the grip.
I now know how to down size my pic's and will give it another try.

brno602

Howdy Do you know exactly which model it is? There were a bunch of different models that S&W normally chambered for 44 Special, but some were chambered for 455 Mark II. The first was the 44 Handejector First Model, also known as the New Century, but mostly known as the Triple Lock. If you have ...

Well, the purpose of the trip was to shoot the three 150 gr 308 E Tips a buddy had given me to see how they shoot through my late model Model 88. I found that they shot a bit high with the cross hairs at the bottom of the black bull but the accuracy is acceptable. I did not get the opportunity to c...

Aw yes the 250-3000 Savage. Isn’t that the one that the .243 Winchester left in the dust? Yeah I’m bad :wink: What's a .243? I have a .250 and 6mm never herd of the .243 :? Ah just giving you a hard time lol I have seen a few Deer shot with it (243) but the 6mm Rem is a Moose rifle. All I remember ...

I have a mint and I mean mint S&W in .455 and 80 pcs of new brass and Lee dies, the sizing die is marked 45 colt? This gun has been in the family for years I wish the old guy's were still around so I could ask where it came from it has Canadian x prof marks or decomissioned marks on it and a nic...

I stopped a my favorite pawn shop on Tuesday afternoon to look around. The owner informed me that he had just bought a 61 gun collection from a fellow that he had dealt with for years. I looked over some of the guns out on display,nothing that really needed me. I ask him if he had any thing that I ...

Well, first off I hope your radiation treatment is successful. I'd probably go with the 44 Special - but I'd like it in a double-action revolver. One of those nickel-plated S&W "Heritage" or whatever they call 'em with a 4" tube would be fine. A 41 Mag with adjutable sights and a...

Just buy the Tika! they are that good,makes other guns look like junk for the price in how they shoot. The little .338 is a great cal can do anything the 06 can plus a bit more second hand info here.

ah the lee loader,I still use mine in .303 brit. But as a wee boy my big brother used to let me do all the dirty work ie clean cases( with fine steel wool) deprime and size. When I got older I loaded thousands of 22-250 rounds for him all with a lee loader,but I used a hand primer also a lee I think...

The old type Speer jacketed bullets were pretty tough constructed. I never ran the 300, but ran some of the 260 gr JHPs out of a Virginian Dragoon I had at the time (the big honking gun would make a SBH look small). I don't remember the recipe, and I didn't have a chrony at the time, but I do remem...

I am going to put a sling on mine,it's nice to have two hands free. mine is a 16'' 45 colt and even with Max BH or TC loads the recoil is light, so I will try a Tang sight next,I put a scout scope on it, was very impressed at how good it shot but hated the look of the gun! The little bugger will do ...

I need to use spell check! or read what typed.

Anyone use this big slug? I was snooping around for some heavy jacketed bullets for my Rossi in 45 colt found a few at the gun store but if my bad memory serves me right they are .451 dia JSP? Took a look at the Speer web sight and all they have is a deep curl .45 now .452, so being in Canada I was ...

The issues with the FTX bullets is improper use or a misplaced shot. They are designed for hydrostatic shock damage and the people hollering the loudest about them failing are the one using them for bone breaking hits. It's a case of know what your ammo was designed to do and shoot it appropriately...

I don't know, I have pushed a 200gr .430 bullet( Speer) with a sabot at 2200+fps out of my .54 Hawken Replica. It blows up gophers real good! I was using 105 or 110gr of fffg and it shot better, using the old T/C sabot better than any other load I have worked up for my front stuffer. I would think i...

I think the same thing will happen to all the new Marlin cals? Sad but history always repeats ie 307win, 356win = 308 /.338 Marlin. The .444 and 45/70 have a very loyal group of shooters that like them so I think it was a bad idea from the start for the .450. All we need is Savage to bring back the ...

brno602

I like it! but aways like the old H450 more as I tend to shoot heavy bullets for every cal. H450 and the .284 are a good mix

brno602

Okay I just like any 06! just like the old lever guns it get's no respect anymore. I am a 7mm fan but not of the Mags! I rather have something like the .300 Win Just years of shooting them over a Chrony I guess."the 7 Mags never really did that well'' P.S I would like one of them new Brownings ...

My fav is a rather warm load of 748 and a 170gr Nozler or Hornady in my levers or a 150gr Seirra spitzer in my 788 . A 788 Remington in .30-30 would be sweet. I've always thought a .44 Mag one would be cool, as well. They don't seem to make bolt guns with that kind of 'pinpoint accuracy' reputation...

brno602

Just look in any reloading manual buy any 150gr or 170gr soft point. Start low and work your way up easy!, the result will put a smile on your face. You can get into casting later. It's that easy I cant think of a cal that is as easy to load for than a 30/30 My fav is a rather warm load of 748 and a...

Teal are my favorite, but the first to leave most are gone by late Sept. I lost my hunting buddy this year so it will be a wile before I duck hunt again

brno602

I would go .348 I am a 99 guy, so have a .358 the modern .348.
The med bores shoot very flat even with blunt bullets, of course I have a Jap 71 too and my brother has a 45/70.
But I like the med bores cant find any of the barnes .348 225gr bullets anymore though.

brno602

I like my 6.5x55 makes a great yote rifle,finding the brass is hard though lol!

brno602

XTPs are fine bullets, expanding well from 700 to 1500 fps and absolutely exploding at 2000 from a rifle (125 grain .357 Mag).

To all here also!
I got a Winchester for Xmas this Year!

Okay it's a Knife not a 86

Having seen some .303s with bad head space, fixed in much the same way good to find a guy that does good work!

It is not traditional but go with a metal roof it will out last the cabin.

brno602

Just buy it! I had one slip through my hands a few years ago you can get brass at gun show's. Or rework 220 swift brass.

brno602

I think the .358 is the best of the mid cal's it can match the .348 and in a 88 or 99 do it with a scope too!
I don't know why the cal died, it is the perfect big game cal by big game I mean stuff bigger than deer.
Of course I got a soft spot for my 350 mag 600 Mohawk same diff.

I remember the gift cans Remington had over 30years ago my Mom bought me some

ah the golden bullet they aint so golden anymore more like a light coating of golden wax,they where really gold colour in the old day's.

I think things are going good for the Deer at least, the Ranch I hunt on is over run with Big Mule'y bucks and the WT are back, now that they have gotten rid of the extra licence you could buy for like $13.00 and easly get two WT one is enough for this area. But the Elk& Moose seem way down at l...
