  1. Re: New Rifle Question Remington. I have 4 Remington bolt actions. I would not trade them for any other bolt.
  2. Re: 7mm reloading Well I think I picked a winner. Today I purchased some Hornady 154gr. Interbonds. I talked with a guy I know that shoots a STW. He has had his best luck with Hornady. So that is going to be my starting point.
  3. Re: Cryo-Accurizing??? Thank you AJ
  4. Does anyone have any knowledge or experience with the Cryo-Accurizing process? Pros and Cons... Thanks
  5. Re: 7mm reloading The two I have been looking at are the Barnes 150gr. X-Bullet BT and the Sierra 160gr GameKing HP BT. I like the advantages of the BT when it comes to long range shoots. Even though I know 90% of animals are shot at under 200 yards, I have the ability to shoot out to 500 yards.

    30-30

    Re: 30-30 I own and do hunt with a Marlin .30-30. I love my gun. Have not taken a deer with it, only had it for one season so far. But I love just shooting it. A friend of mine hunts with a Marlin .35. He has taken many deer with that gun. Good shooting and light.
  7. I have recently purchased a 7mm STW. I will be reloading this gun. I am looking to see who reloads a 7mm for hunting. I would like to know: what bullet do you shoot and kinda why. I will be making up a few different bullets and different powder loads. Just looking for a good starting point with bullets. Thanks alot.
  8. Re: jci63\'s Piebald full mount. Very nice.
  9. Re: want a new pistol... help I have just purchased a Kimber Tactical Pro II. So far I have put about 200 rounds through it. I am in love. I have only had 2 Fail to Feeds, bullet lined up but slide did not close all the way. Broke the gun down for a quick clean and away I went. I shot 14 rounds at 25 yards putting all in center mass of the FBI silhoutte target. Not too bad for right out of the box. Next time I go to the range I will take some pics to post.
  10. Re: CZ VARMINT .22 RIFLES Aj had mentioned the .17 HMR. If you go to www.varmintal.com you can read a review that he wrote about the CZ 452 Varmint in .17HMR. http://www.varmintal.com/17hmr.htm
  11. Re: HK USP The HK is a very nice piece. I looked at them for awhile, but went with the Kimber. Have fun with it.
  12. Re: Bear spotted Sat 2-5-05 Like JimT said, your males will not totally den up in the winter. They will actually come out if you get a few warmer days in a row to feed.
  13. Re: Cabela\'s hard bound catalog! I guess I am the one with the spending problem. I have been getting two a year (sring and fall) going on 3 years now.
  14. I have made a new addition to the safe today. I picked up my Kimber Tactical Pro II today. I can not wait till saturday to start the break-in process.
  15. Re: Bought a new rifle today The 597 is a great little gun. I bought my dad one in the .22 Mag topped with a Nikon ProStaff 3-9x. I also installed a target hammer to improve the feeling of the trigger ( http://www.midwayusa.com/rewriteaproduct/410565 ). For the .17 HMR I like the BSA Sweet 17 3-12 x 40. You just sight it in at 100 yards and it has the markings for auto adjust out to 300 yards. It works great. Congrats on the new gun.
  16. I have shot the Taurus .357. It is a smooth shooting gun, for the money. I am actually looking at getting the .357 for my dad. The trigger may not be as smooth as a Smith & Wesson, but that is why they have gunsmiths that know how to do trigger work.
  17. Re: springfield armory I personal know nothing about the XD. I was able to find a review done by Guns and Ammo: http://www.gunsandammomag.com/ga_handguns/springfield_armory_xd_series/ Hopefully this will help you.
  18. Re: .17HMR? Thanks, I am looking forward to hearing your results.
  19. Re: How many of you reload? I am just getting into reloading. I have been doing some looking reading about different powders and loads. I am just waiting for the weather to break so I can get to the range. I will be reloading for my .270, hunting rifle, and what ever gun I end up building for my benchrest/varmint gun, I believe a .243 or maybe a 6mm Rem.
  20. Who has one? What brand do you shoot? What ammo? And the final question, how do you like it?
  21. Re: My favorite duck/geese hunting gear is my..... I would have to say either my Cabela's duck jacket or my Remington 11-87. It is a tough one.
  22. Re: What are your views on the 6mm? The gun is going to be used as a varmint/target/open field deer rifle, but it will not really be seeing all that much action as a deer rifle. The target/varmint portion of it will be out to 500yards, but hopefully I can find a longer field or range.
  23. Re: New member here! Welcome to the message boards.
  24. What are your views on the 6mm? I am looking into scrapping my .243 build and do up a 6mm. I have looked at ballistic stuff on varies factory webistes so I know a bit of the difference there, but I will be handloading. Just wondering what everyones .02 cents on these two rounds. Thanks everyone for your unput.
