I have an Excalibur Matrix 355. It's been a great, reliable crossbow. A little wide, but very effective under 40 yards. I may upgrade to one of newer more narrow bows.

I did the same as you. Ordered 2k, then after seeing the candid response ordered 5k more. Thanks very much North Fork Tactical from a brand new reloader with everything but primers!

So, in another thread I stated I was finally getting into reloading. I have an RCBS Ammomaster progressive press that I got new, and never set up. My question is: do you guys that use the progressives apply any kind of graphite, or dry lube on the parts that turn and contact other parts?

I do have 300 large pistol primers and 300 .44 lead wadcutters, and plenty of brass, so that could be a start. I just ordered a Lymans manual. Thanks for all the helpful comments, I'm sure I'll have many more questions.

I'm embarrassed to say I have a never used RCBS Ammomaster progressive press I got brand new 25 years ago. I have a beam scale, all the attachments and dies for 45 ACP. As I near retirement, I have decided it's high time to start using the thing. I have never reloaded before so I need advice on...

Oops, .300 Win mag. And Ill put a limbsaver on the rifle. Now to buy a scope.

I've decided to use it as an excuse to buy a Tikka T3x with stainless barrel and composite stock. As I approach retirement I'll be planning more of this type of hunt, incuding elk, so the Tikka should serve me well. I believe the outfitter was more worried about a good blood trail than anything...

I have booked a trip to Newfoundland for moose in September. I have a .270 Savage and a 308 Savage, but the outfitter tells me both are inadequate for moose past 150 yards. He recommends 30-06, 300 win mag, or 7mm rem mag. I don't want to spend a lot, so I narrowed the gun down to Savage 110...

I killed a buck and 2 does in Indiana with my Excalibur recurve crossbow, and a an Ohio doe with my Marlin 1895 .44 with 300gr hornady.

I am planning the hunt of my lifetime. Planning to go hopefully in 2019. Looking for 1st hand experience with outfitters for a western elk hunt. I don't really care where the location is. I would prefer to hunt from an established spike camp with a guide. Most likely be a gun hunt. Anybody care...

I just bought a Savage Axis II heavy barrel in .308. Great deal from PSA- 299.00 with Weaver scope, and it comes with the accu-trigger. After the 100.00 rebate I'm into it for only 200.00. I will use this for an elk hunt, but also for some long range bench rest shooting. I would like to swap out...

I have been offered a 1862 Colt pocket navy revolver. It is all numbers matching, and in good condition. He is asking me to make an offer. I really have no idea what to offer. I don't want to pay too much, but I also don't want to insult him. He was given several guns by his grandfather, and...

I bought a new Super redhawk on GB 2 weeks ago for 806.00 shipped to my dealer from Mn. It's a .44 9.5 barrel.
