What's your dream rifle?
Borngeechee replied to Borngeechee's topic in Guns and Rifles and Discussions
When I come home with it I'm going to say Airedale said it was ok lol. I think I will I just keep trying to find reasons not to. I don't think I'll make it through the summer though. Geechee born and Geechee bred -
I've been eyeing a Ruger No. 1 in 375 h&h for a while now and the itch is becoming unbearable. I have no practical need for one since Africa might not ever be in my budget but it's so damn sexy. Geechee born and Geechee bred

You guys definitely make sense. Looks like a have a couple of manuals to order. No such thing as too much infoGeechee born and Geechee bred

I have the lyman 49th edition reloading manual. Is there another book, not necessarily a manual on reloading that you would suggest? Geechee born and Geechee bred

It's the m77 type. Yea every thing I run through gets that on it after I eject the spent round. Geechee born and Geechee bred

That's where the extractor grabs the round. It's that Mauser type in the gunsite scout. It grabs and flings rounds for dear life. It's like that on my factory rounds too. Geechee born and Geechee bred

The cases look fine to me. I don't see any bulging or deformation in them and the primer strike looks good to me. The other 17 from the 46 grain batch I shot just because it was fun but that's the last time I'll be making 20 round batches to test. Thanks for the 3 round method. They were all 3 shot groups.

The cool thing is that I had almost as much fun loading as I did shooting. I wish I would have started years ago.Sent from my SM-G920T using Tapatalk

These are the results from my first batch of handloads. I used IMR 4064 under a 150 grain fmj bullet. The loads were 43,44,45,46, and 47 grains with 47 being the winner. Sent from my SM-G920T using Tapatalk

I may have missed that somehow but I will reread. I'll use the rounds that I already made since it's not for my hunting rifle. I will be doing this on my next go round for all my rifles. I wanna use my 45-70 for hunting this year so this will be very helpful. Thanks guys. Sent from my SM-G920T using Tapatalk

Do you need a bullet puller or can you do it withoutSent from my SM-G920T using Tapatalk

Not yet, but I've seen it listed for my rifle a lot. You're right though , every rifle is a little different even if it's the same model. I only made 20 rounds though just to test it out and see what tweaking if any needs to be made. Sent from my SM-G920T using Tapatalk

Yeah it's 3 grains off of the max load in the lee manual and after doing a lot of online searches, I've found that it's a pretty popular load. Sent from my SM-G920T using Tapatalk

Yea imma just have to get out and scout around. I had 2 come right under my deer stand when I was up in 4G but that was 2 far. I won't be hunting up that way any time soon. Sent from my SM-G920T using Tapatalk

Getting into reloading doesn't have to be expensive. Everything in these pictures cost me around $250. Its bare bones and basic but it gets the job done. Sent from my SM-G920T using Tapatalk

If today's temp is any inclination on what this winter will feel like, it's going to be a very cold one. Sent from my SM-G920T using Tapatalk

The one glove that comes off will hang from the sleeve that it's attached to so it's really no biggie. What I do know is that my hands will be warm no matter how long I'll have to sit out there. The same amount of movement it takes to take your hand out of your pocket is the same or more that's needed to remove your hand from that glove or a regular muff but to each is own. The great thing about this world is that we all have options and we choose what we see fit.Sent from my SM-G920T using Tapatalk
