    Leaving Saturday for my first North Carolina bear hunt. I’ll be hunting a private land bait site and staying next to the national forest. Any suggestions, tips or don’t appreciated.

    Sabots left me discombobulated

    I’ve always wanted to use that word somewhere… Shot 90 grains on Blackhorn under a Harvester sabot with 300 gr cast bullet and got this. Any ideas what’s going on?

    203 grain SH from a .35/06JDJ

    Found my load. Finally. I spent a good amount of time last year trying to work up a load with 203 SHs. Found one “good enough” to hunt with last year but still had questions so I loaded 4 powders (1 with crimped 140s, ~1”) and hit the range this morning. Need to adjust POI and confirm. 62.5...

    Bladesmiths?

    Are there any bladesmith here? I’d love to see your work, if so. After swearing off new hobbies for the last umpteen years I’ve given in to my last …uh-hum… hobby. My wife probably had the same reaction those of you reading this did. Backstory: My uncle became a master smith 30-something...

    New Encore 209x50 ML

    Sometimes you step in 💩 and sometimes its sunshine. And today was a bright, sunshiny day. I got a great deal on an unfired, never even loaded Encore ML rifle. I don’t rifle hunt but I bought it for the frame. These things haven’t been made in years and used frames can sell for more than the...

    ISO “Utility Grade” Packing Knife

    I’m looking for a packing knife that I can use for everything from carrying on hunts to remote fishing trips. Needs to be under $100 because I won’t use it as the tool I need it to be otherwise.

    Poor Man’s Action Job

    My new Smith 629 came from the factory with a ridiculously heavy DA trigger and less than stellar SA trigger. Wasn’t crazy about the blocky front sight either. I installed a Dawson Precision fiber optic front sight and Wilson Combat Custom Tune spring kit this week. And what an incredible...

    Rebuilding reloads for the .358 wildcat

    I ran out of time working up reloads last year and settled for a just OK load. So after lunch I “pulled” 6 203gr Shock Hammers and 2 of the 140s using an inertia style hammer. Then I loaded 4 groups of 2 and crimped them with a Lee custom crimp die. Crimping is something I didn’t do last year...

    Is buyers regret a thing?

    I’m conflicted. Never really been a .44 magnum fanboy but this one found its way into my safe recently. It’s got the absolutely best trigger of all my handguns. I mounted a 2x scope just to see what it can do. Maybe I’ll keep it, maybe not.

    Testing with handgun calibers?

    No, not the rifle calibers some of us shoot in handguns but actual handgun rounds from actual handguns. For example, has anyone tested the 205 grain .429s from a .44 magnum on a decent testing media, ballistic gel, pork shoulder, live critter? The weight alone screams high velocity (i.e. a...

    Bought my first rifle last month

    To be clear it was my first rifle in a long while. A brand new Henry X 45/70 followed me home, even had the wife urging me to pull the trigger, figuratively then literary. I put a tactical forend, peep sight, muzzle brake and hammer spur on it, all from Ranger Point Precision. And boy is it...
