You want to aim lower for a downhill AND uphill shot? I struggle with geometry and this makes no sense to me. If I use a rangefinder and see a whitetail 100 yds out downhill my instinct is to aim slightly higher.

I bought these for $8/100. Who is the manufacturer? I think they're 140 gr, but I haven't weighed them yet. They were bagged in ziplocks from an estate sale. This is a softpoint, but the jacket comes right up to the edge of the lead tip.

I picked up a very nice heavy barrel Rem 700 BDL in .308. I'd like to swap out the stock for a synthetic one. Are there any recommendations for stocks that balance price and quality? Some of the ones I'm looking at cost more than the rifle. That's a little crazy to me.

Ever since Remingtion tripled the price of their copper solid line and stopped manufacturing their buckhammers I have been looking for an accurate replacement hunting slug. I have gone through Federal's Fusion line, Brenneke's sabots, and Fiocchi's aerotek lines. The results have not been...

Am I able to do it. I spent a couple of hours looking on line and found many different opinions but no answers. Called atf in ny and was referred to nypd. At least atf admitted they didn't know. Nypd didn't know either. I politely thanked them for their time. Reason I am asking is because...

I've been shooting for a long time shutting my left eye, and using my right open eye. I am finding that I am left eye dominant and I'd like to shoot with both eyes open. Is anyone aware of how I could train myself to use both open eyes.

What are the thoughts of using a 5.5 in Ruger blackhawk for hunting vs a 7.5 in? I may or may not scope it depends on my middle aged eyes. I had a scoped 6in 629 in the past, and I don't see what difference a 1/2 inch less in the barrel would make. The shorter barrel would carry better, and...

I bought a turk several years ago to refinish, and never did. I got as far as buying another original stock for it and removing the hardware from the original stock. The original stock was unusable. So now I have this mauser in pieces that I would like to pass on to someone else. How do I...

I have an SVT40 drilled and tapped on the side of the receiver for a scope mount. I think I picked it up for 500 a couple of years ago. I'm thinking of selling it and finding one that hasn't been altered. It functions fine, and it has the typical surplus stock, dings and dents. Could it...

I am interested in trying to make knife sheaths. Could anyone recommend tools and types of leather I should look at for my project?

I just picked up a sporterized rifle with a military stock. I'm very pleased with the accuracy and lack of recoil. I find that the military stock is too short so what would be a recommended replacement stock, or should I add a rubber stock pad? What are the game limits for the cartridge? I...

I have a kahr p9 which I'm mostly satisfied with. It's thin light at 16 oz. decent capacity 7+1, and fairly accurate at 15 yds. Only thing is I'm not a big fan of striker fired pistols. Any other suggestions? I'm going to look at whatever 1911 45's and 9mm's I can find. My goal is to try...

I have to stop every few rounds to adjust something. I am using lee dies with the press. Everything is misaligned. I have to guide the case into the resizer, before I complete the stroke I have to make sure the case expander is centered. The bullet seater and crimping stations go ok. I...

How does it work. I read the getting started information, and it makes no sense to me. Are people buying and selling way under market value???

I'm finding that I would like to carry a full size pistol like a cz75, but am tired of pulling up my pants. I have a good gun belt from Mitch Rosen. Do the holsters that have wide attachment points distribute the weight of a heavy pistol enough to help with the pants around the ankle...

I tried casting my own bullets for a few months. Found that I didn't really like it so I cast and lubed all of my lead and boxed up my stuff. I learned a lot, and added to my knowledge of using cast bullets. I am amazed at the variation of bullet sizes coming out of the Lee 6 cavity molds I...

I am reloading 10mm with Lee's cast 175gr truncated cone bullets on a dillon 550 with dillon dies. The loaded rounds drop out with an offset bulge where the bullet is seated in the case. They drop freely into my eaa chamber, but not my delta elite or my dan wesson razorback. I removed the...

Does anyone have published loads for using titegroup and 10mm loads? I have a lot, and would like to use it for some light loads. I have a new Dan Wesson Razorback, and would like to break it in with some lighter loads. My books don't list anything. I see titegroup used for the .40 s&w...

I'm taking a hard look at my calibers and wonder if the 357 sig has a place. I seem to own a weapon for all of the common caibers and reload for them. I was drawn to the 357 sig because if the power it offered but it isn't something i reload for. I end up carrying a 9mm instead of the 357...

What is the difference between primers that make a load more accurate in one weapon than another? I get the try different brands to see what my pistol likes better, but what is it? I think of all the interactions, and see the barrel and slug being the deciding factors. Just a question for a...
