    Colorado voted to reintroduce wolfs

    It's been done here in formally Arizona now know as CaliZona. Population's are growing. Starting to see animals herd up quite a bit. Deer, Antelope and Elk all grazing and bedding down with eachother. Antelope been moving up into higher elevations. I'm sorry to hear that.

    Would you eat this bull?

    Nope not eating that one. If you know what caused it than maybe salvageable, but not knowing I wouldn't. My votes with the rest, call G&F

    Disappointed in non-resident hunters

    Other hunter's were closer when it Other hunters that never took a shot got to it first. Brother in law didn't think it was worth the fight for a 3x3 on opening day. So she ended up with a bigger buck and Daddy didn't go to jail. Seen this play out before and game and fish just took the...

    Are the .338s becoming pointless?

    There are already bullets out there for it. Hammer Hunter and a lot of the others out there are already making high BC for the 338. 215 to 230 grn bullets only get you so fAR due to energy loss. Yeah you can go with soft tin copper 225 to 330 grn bullets only get you so far and loose their...

    Rust preventative for your presses?

    What I do with high carbon sTeel knives: Polish the steel as good as you can, etch it in a light acid " vinegar will work if left a couple hours" rub down with 3 in one oil. Or you can look up the recipe for " Eds Red gun cleaner" It will cut through most surface rust and leave an oil film on...

    What do you use to level the reticle?

    Used the wheeler set works nice to get a start. Use the mag lite through the front to verify on a level line drawn on the wall as others have mentioned. Then it's out to the range. Rifle leveled off the bench or bipod Shot at 200, 300, 400 no adjustment on turrets. Rifle back on the bench at...

    Any reliable testing that Lapua Brass is superior to all others?

    In the 6.5x284 I just switched to lapua after Nosler and Norma. Both the Nosler and Norma did better than expected considering how fast I pushed them. I like the lapua brass, but I do actually check, measure and prep the lapua just like any other brass. In the 338 lapua we actually switched...

    How to deprime live primers?

    Always used single stage press, never thought it would be a good idea with anything that had a powder drop on it. I have popped one cci250 out of millions but no big deal, never have my face or head over the press.
