I have no doubt that loading will keep my mind active. That is just one of the reasons I decided to buy the AR's and start loading for them, to learn. It is just complicated enough to force you to think, yet simple enough that it can be learned. It's also always changing, so it's never static...

I have a Remington 700 out of their custom shop for deer. It has a 3X9X40MM Zeis Conquest on it. My slug gun is an H&R Ultra Slug Hunter Deluxe with a Nikon 2X7X32MM scope. My muzzle loader is a Thompson Center Omega with a Thompson Center 3X9X40MM scope. My shotguns are Benelli Super Black...

I am loading the Sierra Matchking in 77GR. The A-Max is a 75GR. After I get a good coyote load worked up I will work with more bullets and different powders. This is just a start. I don't shoot match rifle, though I can see how the .308 would be fun. I use a 30.06 for deer but factory ammo is...

They are doing better this season, they might make it to the second round, maybe.

They played well enough to lose, which they did.

I have shot several feral dogs, I had no problem with it. Same with feral cats. Neither have any business out in the field and cause a lot of damage. They are not only a threat to human life, they do a lot of damage to wildlife. Shooting a pet would be harder, doing the right thing has never...

I don't understand. Why would killing a dangerous animal affect you wanting to hunt or fish? :confused: I am not trying to be a smart butt, I don't understand. It was the right thing to do.

What you are talking about is moral choice. Just as with all moral choices, it is a personal matter and, as we are so often told, no one has a right to force their moral views on others, nor should they mock them.

Wadda you expect? You know how cats are!

Most of my dogs LoVeD to play to play like that. My shorthair liked to be harnessed up to the wagon and pull the kids up and down the drive way. He used to "force" himself under our feet so that he could become the "ottoman" of the house. I have run into very few dogs that did not enjoy that...

Obama and Co. should wear one at all times.

Have to wait for the weather to break before I get out to the range. It's very windy and rainy today with extreme cold settling in starting tomorrow. I would like it to be light winds and over 45 degrees before I try the "test" loads. If I get a day without wind, even if it is cold, I will do...

I used to have a German shorthair, bird dog, years ago. "Bud" was a working dog, he was used for hunting pheasant, quail and grouse. I was guiding at the time so he was worked hard. He also enjoyed playing softball and "tag" with the boys. One of the thing Bud really enjoyed was being used as an...

If you are still in Hays on Monday be sure to stop at Joe Bob Outfitters! Their parking lot is big enough for a sprinter. It is a good, little, mom and pop firearms store and good people work there. They are very helpful and friendly. JoeBobOutfitters.com

Welcome to the club! Right now I have no plans of loading for any other calibers. My should can no longer take the constant pounding of my heavier calibers which is one of the reason I bought the AR. The low cost per round is the other. I am, a present, a student, my friend Paul, the...

You are likely wrong on both counts. My dogs, when I had them, were always hunting dogs, lived in the house and played with the kids, in the exact, same way, they loved it. They, the kids, and we, were all happy and had FUN! Remember what FUN IS? If the dog did not want the kid on him, he...

We loaded 60 test rounds today. We took them down to 1/10th of a grain on the powder, precision loads. It will be fun when I get to see what the rifle likes, and does not like, with these loads. The next step is a perfect zero at 100 yards with milspec 62 grains FMJ. That will be the starting...

I finally was able to get all the components needed to start loading for my 5.56MM. It was a journey that took several months of researching different loads, bullets, powders etc. Then several more months trying to locate everything. I have 4 different bullets I intend to load, 2 target and 2...

What's a load? :confused:

I think it's best I no longer try to discuss this with you. It will get out of hand.
