Although the weather can be warm(ish) here in November, the last deer I shot on November 29th. had to be cut up the same day. If I had let it hang in the shed overnight, it would have been frozen soli ...

In western Canada, the price is generally based on the hanging weight of the carcass and you pay by the lb. for cutting and wrapping. Probably ranges from $40-60, depending on the size of the deer. I ...

Beautiful animal. It will look awesome with a half body mount.

Talking about kids at Xmas, it is opening day for me tomorrow. So much for sleep tonight !!!!!

Hey Vince, what's the mood like there after the loss to the Poms this weekend ? Not as bad as your neighbours though, I reckon there will be a day of national mourning in New Zealand.

Thought that I would post a photo of some of my reloading results. Early results were promising, but mixed. I had read that I would find one load that the rifle really liked and that groups would shri ...

Vince, thanks for the laugh. I spent the first 20 years of my life in the North of Ireland, hopped on a plane to Canada in 1984 and never looked back. The Irish love Irish jokes, in fact we tell "Kerr ...

Vince,

thanks for the geography lesson, always good to learn of other places !!

I bought my first Bushnell Elite about 5 years ago, and now have them on every rifle I shoot. The optical quality is excellent, and they are very reasonably priced. The RainGuard is a "must have" feat ...

If nothing else, it will show if there is a problem with the rifle or soething with the shooters form that needs correction.

Also an interesting comment from Pumpkinslinger, as I had a similar exp ...

This is a topic I have done some reading on (it is a short read). My reason being working up loads that my sons can shoot in a hunting rifle, while enjoying their introduction to the sport. Check the ...

Question: when a loaded cartridge is disassembled using a kinetic bullet puller, should the brass be resized ?

Or can it be reloaded "as is" ?

Can live, decapped primers be reused (assuming the ...

My preferred bullet prior to handloading was the Remingtom Core Lokt. My most accurate handloads so far have been with Nosler Ballistic Tips, which I intend to use for deer this Fall. I will keep you ...
