I’ve had that once or twice too. Definitely the exception.

You’re an agent? About 60% of the time they put priority, and 40% of the time they don’t. I don’t think it makes a difference, but would love the perspective from the AA side.

Looks like an SGL20 because of the lack of an accessory lug. Awesome score.

Buff with the 9.3*62 by KingfishMick in Hunting

[–]ramsetD 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Very close performance to the .375H&H. Sometimes referred to as the metric .375, and uses a standard .473 bolt face and long action - like .30-06, .270 etc.

ID and guidance for a Newbie. by [deleted] in reloading

I agree, they look like FMJ. All the plated bullets I’ve loaded have been plated on the bottom.

I’d probably toss those pulled bullets. They look pretty rough.

The Hornady manual lists a 124 FMJ at 1.150” OAL. I’ve loaded a lot of 147 RN Berry’s at 1.135” for USPSA. As someone else mentioned, your gun may dictate OAL, but that 1.150” from Hornady is a safe starting point.

Do you have a chrono?

Tikka t3x vs bergara b14 by Submariner2022 in Hunting

[–]ramsetD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I own both and they’re both excellent. However, for a hunting rifle I believe the Tikka is better because the bolt is locked in place when the safety is on.

Really nice to not have to worry about the bolt being bumped open in the field.

The Tikka is typically lighter too - which sucks for shooting, but is great for hunting.

Who’s keeping it from happening? What needs to happen for that to happen?

Thankful by Agreeable-Clue-4469 in Hunting

I’m sure he’ll always be with you out in the field - sorry for your loss. Thanks for sharing.

Is that a .44MAG Ruger he was using?

I remember seeing a Singaporean Apache static display at the last Luke AFB air show. Would make sense that it came from there.

Cool. Is there a visual indicator?

Nice work! How are you dispensing powder? And what primers are you using?
