    300 Weatherby Loads

    I only load 180 gr Nosler Partitions in my .300 Wby, so my work and data is probably no good for anything you guys are doing.

    Case Cleaning 2019

    I do like JimP does. I use Lizard Litter for media. It is walnut shells that I get from a pet shop. I pay about $10 for a #40 sack...way cheaper than Lyman or other commercial media and does just as good a job.

    Non-typical doesn't even explain it...

    I've seen several bucks over the last 50 years that had pretty strange antlers. I shot one and it didn't have any balls. Really fat & great eating. I've also seen them with weird antlers when the deer was previously injured.

    Reloder-16, Reloder-22, Reloder-26 Q&A

    Basically burn rate in the Reloader Powders decrease as the number gets higher. RE 19 is slower that RE 16, etc. I've played around with this series of powder and really like the results, just have to find the right combination.

    EarthQuake

    Born and lived in southern California until I retired when I was 58 in 2000 and moved to Colorado. I experienced a lot of earthquakes. 2 really stand out for me. The Whittier quake in 1987 was a tough one as it effected my job big time. I was a Manager on the B2 Stealth Bomber program in Pico...

    Happy 4th !!!

    Having a fish fry with Alaskan Halibut (wife & I just caught them) for a few friends, drink a few brewskis and watch the fireworks in town. We live 4 miles away and uphill, so we get a great view from our deck. Everyone be safe and enjoy our nations birthday:cool:

    Most people don't like change, especially us old geezers...that's why I still have Windows 7 Pro! Just have to get used to it. I may not like it, but not much I can do about it. What's with my avatar, really out of focus.

    Question for you Nebraska folks

    In August I'll be driving home from a reunion in Waterloo, Iowa. I want to stop in Casper, Wyoming to see a friend before heading home to Colorado. Looks like US 20 is almost a straight shot, with most of it in Nebraska. Whats it like? I'll be driving my F350 diesel towing a 26' travel trailer...

    Fishing Kayaks

    I know we have a lot of fisherman here, so I want to know if any of you have (or use) one of the fishing kayaks. I have a 22' pontoon boat that is a bit big for some of our small lakes around here , so I am thinking about a kayak that is set up for fishing. I like the Perception Pescador 12.0...

    Alaska 2019

    We went clamming yesterday as we had a -4' tide. Went about 25 miles across the bay to some big tidal flats. Lots of clams, but they are hard to dig. When you start digging, they also start to dig deeper in the sand. Worked my 77 year old butt off! Lots of good eating. Scenery was absolutely...

    Went back east on Sterling Hwy from Soldotna and sure saw some pretty country. Saw this cow moose, but her calf was being camera shy and staying in the shadows.

    Alaska 2019

    Got here yesterday after several tiring flights from Salt Lake City. The flights were not so bad, but the airports really SUCK! I think the TSA person thought I was public enemy #1 or on the terrorist watch list. I have 4 replacement joints so I automatically go to the full body scan, then I got...
