    No, there was no foam at all in the cap. Every bottle I have ever bought had a seal in it. I went ahead and exchanged it and everything is good! Now to work up a load!

    Thanks scheels!!

    Stopped by scheels today in Iowa city after a visit to the university hospital. Decided to pick up a pound of of IMR 4166 with Enduron in it. The 22 cheetah mk1 I built likes to copper foul at around 4400 fps. Figured I would give this powder a try. So I picked up a pound today, got home...

    22 hornet 40 grain bullets

    I just happened to pick up some 40 grain Barnes varminator bullets, and wondering if anyone has had any experience with them in the 22 hornet. I was going to try and feed a few to my 22 cheetah and see at what velocity they start coming apart. but that is for a later date. I will most likely...

    Scented Gun Powders. Is it possible?

    I don't know about adding scents to the powder. I know that cream of wheat smells nothing like it does cooked when fire forming. I fire formed about 200 cases for my .22 CHeetah MK1 and the smell is still hanging in the garage.... it was absolutely terrible. My wife is still not happy with...

    prarie dog hunting

    Im headed to south Dakota next month from the 14th to the 22. I am looking for some places to shoot some prarie rats. I was out there last year near Presho SD and we had a blast. We stayed for 3 days and shot on a ladies property who has since sold it. The new owners went ahead and poisoned...

    Dillon 650 issue

    I have heard of others having the same issue , I can't remember now where I read it. But he got the bearing and it seemed to solve the problem. I keep meaning to get it for my own 650 but haven't done it yet.

    Would you trust miltary surplus powder?

    If it's been stored properly I don't see why you wouldn't use it . As stated above don't start at max load, and work up slow. I have been debating buying some pull down powder for the .223 but haven't pulled the trigger yet.

    Just picked up a 22hornet

    I just got done building a .22 CHeetah, and figured it was time to get a smaller rifle for the kids. This rifle fits the bill perfectly! I'm hoping it shoots like everyone says it will. I'm glad it brought back memories and hopefully pushes you to get yours out and start plinking!

    Just picked up a 22hornet

    I ended up taking a stone to clean up the bearing surfaces, I got it down around 2.5 pounds which is more than enough for what I am doing. it really is a pretty sweet little gun minus the trigger pull which I addressed. I wasn't a huge fan of the stock, but it is growing on me. now the next...

    Reloads smoking?!?!

    Last year while prepping for my trip to South Dakota for prairie dog hunting. I started loading up some test rounds for a RRA AR that I had borrowed from a friend to take along with me. I was going to use the 50 grain v max and some CFE 223 as I had bought 8 pounds for a decent price. Also...

    Just picked up a 22hornet

    So I just got a 22 hornet given to me. It's a Harrington richardson 157 with a mannlicher stock. It's case hardened and has beautiful colors. All in all its in good shape. I'm not a huge fan of the mannlicher stock but it's in good shape so why mess with what works! The only issue I have is...

    500 magnum shot shell

    I've only shot a few of them, the other people that I talked to said they never had an issue. I haven't seen anything yet to make me strop shooting them. If you decide to try it let me know maybe I can ship you some of the shot cards I am using to try out.

    Reloads smoking?!?!

    He does not say what brass he is using, if he is using LC, then his starting load is reduced roughly by 10% and he is right in the ball park of where he needs to be. But telling him to bump up without all the info is dangerous.

    500 magnum shot shell

    I have the 8 3/8" ported barrel. It is the first generation they came out with. I have been playing around with every conceivable bullet I can try up to and including the 700 grain bullet from matts bullets. Not near as bad as everyone says even with a stout load of H110. The load I ended up...

    500 magnum shot shell

    After kicking around the idea for a bit, I finally loaded some up tonight. I started with a box of 28 ga shot shells that I found at Walmart go figure. I had hoped to be able to use the wad out of them. But the wad was to big at .510 . So I went to work the other day , and happened by a...

    Magneetospeed

    I ended up going with the sporter .I think with the money that I saved, I will buy quick load. I was never really concerned with velocity till I started loading for the .22 CHeetah. Now it has piqued my interest.
