I started coating w hBN a few years ago. My initial reasoning was to find a way to make the bullet release from the case identical whether the round was loaded yesterday or a year ago. That objective has been met. A secondary concern was finding a way to extend barrel life. My...

There are a few coyotes around here that don't like my 260 Rem. After seeing what those 140s did to these dogs, Ill use the combination next year on whitetails at a reasonable distance. Pete

I too had tried to contact Mr Lucas. I wound up having a local machinist re-turn and sleeve a Lucas guide I no longer had a use for.

In the year and a half that I've had my .260, the Berger 140 Hybrid has a 100% kill ratio. That includes 2 whitetails, 4 coyotes, more than a dozen groundhogs and a red fox at ranges from 60 yards for one of the deer out to about 560 for the other whitetail. everything else in between those...

Made my morning!

My 260 Rem. does just what you describe. The action just came back from MCR a couple weeks ago. Bedded it into a Greybull stock I had in the corner of the shop and loaded some rounds to work up to Kevin's recommendation. As of yesterday, 40 rounds have been through the barrel. The best...

Custom barrels get a couple wet patches followed by a few dry patches. Then a couple rounds to sight in. Break-in is done when the scope is zero at 200. Factory barrels get fire-lapped. Have done this to 4 Remington tubes now. Thanks to Remington's slow twist rates, 2 shoot lighter...

There nothing so far in the thread that I could not say any better. On the point about being divisive of the hunting community, my stance is to consider them as equals, if not worse, than the anti- hunting, anti- gun, anti- anything you do crowd. Being stuck in a state that is a liberal...

I'll try my 'tools' on some .223 this weekend and post if someone hasn't done so by then. Thinking about it, I would expect better results with the smaller primer pockets because the rim of the PP will make contact at a more vertical angle. Being so, I would think LESS force would yield...

Why not? ! ! ! Getting a couple more firings off impossible to find brass or brass that has a lot of time invested preparing for service is what I'm lookin' at. May not use these recovered cases as my A1 long range stuff but they seem to be quite serviceable for foulers, sighters, or...

Stumbled on this thread a couple days ago. Brilliant! Unfortunately, we didn't have bolts or bearings to build the jig as tbrice23 does in the video, so we applied some "Yankee" ingenuity. The bolt was replaced with a piece of .250" "drill rod". The rod was cut to an...

Have been using SD800's for a while now and when they work, they did almost everything we needed them to do. However, we have found them to not be durable enough. Over the past 6 years, the dogs (4) and I have been through 5 units and I'm down to one working transmitter and 2 receivers...

A question for those who use E collars for their dogs. What brand and model do you use and why? I've been using one particular model/brand for general obedience training for quite some time. Unfortunately it is discontinued and no longer available. Since I'll have to get a few...

Checking out at the store, the young cashier suggested to the older woman, that she should bring her own grocery bags because plastic bags weren't good for the environment. The woman apologized and explained, "We didn't have this green thing back in my earlier days." The young clerk...
