    I Found A OOP's Today

    That is where when you reload you need to come up with a system that works for you as you go through the steps. For me once I am ready to put the round together I'll prime a group of cases then move to loading the powder and bullets. I use a RCBS Chargemaster now and while it is dumping the...

    I Found A OOP's Today

    Well, my scale is wore out. I went through close to 3000 rounds today and all came out where they were suppose to. That's one way to do a inventory.

    Thoughts on Suppressors for Hunting?

    A couple of years ago I was hunting elk with my brother in law and we spotted a pie bald spike bull that he wanted to shoot. Come opening day we hiked into the canyon and when the sun came up we spotted another hunter across the canyon from us. After a few hours we had seen a few elk but not...

    I Found A OOP's Today

    It just goes to show that no matter how careful you are that you can and will end up making a mistake. When loading my rifle rounds I will dump the powder into a pan that came with the scale, weigh it, and then dump it into the case. I have no idea of what happened with this one.

    I Found A OOP's Today

    Well, a few years ago I loaded up a lot of .340 Weatherby round with the 225 grain Barnes TSX bullets and I decided that I wanted to just switch them over to the rest of the 225 grain TTSX bullets that I have. So I pulled out the old hammer type inertia puller and went to work beating them on a...

    Hunting CO?

    Actually I don't believe that it is harder to draw except for those units that hold exceptional animals, then it just comes down to supply and demand. Utah is the same way, most non resident LE elk tags are going to take you close to 20 years to draw for a rifle hunt. Deer hunts in the LE...

    I think that a lot of people had that misconception about needing a FFL to have a firearm shipped back to them after a modification or repair. Now if you want a company to just send you a firearm then yes you do need that FFL. But my way of thinking is that if you have paid for the...

    Gun Shows

    It has been a while but I have shipped firearms out to either be modified or repaired and I never have had a FFL. There were also no problems with the FFL shop sending them back to me. The key thing here is that you need to be the owner of the firearm when you ship it and it is returned to...

    I figured that the buyer would have to pay shipping, but if someone is in a area like I am and travel 120 miles to look at firearms and want to buy one that shipping would be a lot better than another 240 mile round trip. I just wished that we had a good gun shop in either Eagle or Garfield...

    I was thinking today on my long drive from the Wasatch Front area of Utah back home here to Colorado about the extended periods of background checks. I I can ship a firearm to a FFL holder for the repair of that firearm and then they can ship it directly back to me a non FFL holder then why...

    Ammunition shortage

    Cataract surgery is a piece of cake now. You'll be back to normal the next day. I've had both eyes done, one of 12 years ago and the next one 5 years ago. It might be good to talk to the surgeon and let him know what you enjoy doing. With my first eye that I had done I have problems...

    Ammunition shortage

    During the last run on ammo I saw a dealer selling 22 Lr ammo for $175 for a box of 375 and he said that he was selling it at that price. I stopped by a Sportsman's Warehouse today and they had very no reloading supplies and very little loaded ammo

    Thoughts on Suppressors for Hunting?

    Those that I have seen hunting with them look like they are packing a antenna on their backs when walking around. I wouldn't just because of where I hunt, they would get hung up on everything. But I also would not have my barrel on any of my rifles threaded to take one or mar up the end with...
