Many moons ago when I was looking to get into silhouette shooting a group that I was shooting pistols with tried hitting turkey sized targets at 1000 yards. Once you figured in the dope you could do it quite often. If I would pull out my Thompson Center Contender I could do it 6 out of 10...

Well, lets see now. We are not suppose to shoot lead bullets because the fragment into all of the meat on a animal and when we eat it we ingest this lead causing problems. All copper bullets are bad because they don't expand properly at longer distances where the velocity of the bullet isn't...

It's doing a good job with the Grizzly Creek one. I read a report yesterday that they pulled just about all of the firefighters off of the line because it was too wet and were going to wait until it dried out before sending them back in. I drove through Glenwood Canyon yesterday and there...

I've gotten lazy in my old age. I use pretty much one bullet, one powder, and one type of primer in all of my reloading for each cartridge that I load for. The only real exceptions are my pistols where I will switch back and forth from lead to jacket bullets. All my rifles except for my...
