Here's a mount I did for my first turkey. It pretty much comes apart and you could easily modify it to hold multiple fans. I'm actually gonna be doing that at some point. I have two more fans to put with it. If you like it I can take some more pics of the different pieces and how I put it...

Tagging in on this, slowly getting my 22 needmore done.

The Humor: You think your actually getting 1200 for that thing, well maybe with rings...... oh wait never mind your one of those guys. The Sarcasm: The only thing better than that scope is my knees, and the VA is paying me for them because they're so great. Compelling Arguments: Because my...

UPDATE...... So I got out to the range and tested my loads, I did NOT shoot the rounds with the very noticeable crimp. I am a little surprised with what I found out and not sure where to go from here. The problem is that my starting group with 72 grains of powder is about 2.5" at 100 yards...

Should I be worried about too much pressure with the crimp being this tight?

I just had an afterthought while reading over the comments again. Another reason as to why I think I went too far is that I was expecting my seating depth to change when I crimped it. So when it didn't I got worried that I wasn't crimping it hard enough.

Thanks for the input everyone. When I first crimped it, I just felt like it didn't do anything so I kept going. I feel like less is more in the case of the crimp, at least to start with. Thanks for the video ButterBean, I haven't gotten a chance to watch it yet but I will before I get back to it.

So I'm loading up some 166 grin hammer hunters for my 300WM and after reading the posts on hammers I decided to try my hand at crimping. How do I know if I have the correct amount of crimp to start out with? I know there are many variables but I don't want to waste components on doing things...

I started about 5 or 6 years ago because we had to switch over to lead free ammo and there wasn't much available to choose from. I started with 300WM because that's my go to hunting rifle. My 6mm remington, 223 and 308 soon followed.

For my first turkey I decided to split it in half. One half went on the smoker and the other half went on the grill. Hands down the half that went on the grill came out exponentially better than the smoked turkey. The breast meat was awesome, it was juicy, tender and had no off putting flavor...

I've had some MR packs. For what it's worth I've personally used the Marshall/FILBE/Beartooth packs and my opinion on them is that they suck. That being said, I have one of their 3 day assault packs and I absolutely love it. I use it all the time and it's one of my go to packs. The other ones...

SHOOT, without a doubt. My reasoning would be when am I every going to get a chance at such a unique animal ever again.

What's the weight on those sneakers / How many socks have been down the tube?
