I'm reloading 28ga, with weighed 16gr longshot, 3/4oz shot, AAHS hulls, and BPSG28 wads. I am getting a decent crimp (maybe a little shallow), but quite a lot of rattle from loose shot. I'm not getting much if any compression on the powder (no register on the MEC Jr. wad pressure gauge). I...

A year ago we had quite a scare, with relocating back to the States just in time to welcome a very premature son into our family. We've fought hard to get out of debt, and after a couple major breaks at work and some really significant help from friends (notably a couple friends here on THR)...

I'm trying to find the COAL to where a .308 hits the lands in my .308 Model 70. I'm loading Barnes TTSX 168gr bullets. I'm using the StoneyPoint/Hornady LockNLoad system. When I advance the bullet until I feel just that first little bit of resistance, the OAL reads to exactly 2.800...

As has been noted elsewhere, a number of troubling changes to Colorado law slipped through rather unnoticed amid all the messiness of the magazine bans. One of these is Colorado Statute 18-9-106, which makes Open Carry potentially subject to the discretion of a law enforcement officer. Here...

Wow, this is the first time I've heard that an M1 can take a 'high capacity magazine capable of carrying dozen of rounds'. What can be done to combat this idea, and get this legal decision reversed...

A buddy and I are prepping for the upcoming elk season here in Colorado. He'll be shooting a 30'06, I'll be shooting a .375H&H. We plan on hunting an area with thick, black timber, second or third season. Elevation 9500-11000ft. I rarely hunt big game with a rifle, always been more of a bow...

For the past week or so I've been trying to find resources on achieving a properly fit rifle. I've found that these resources are few and far between, especially in the American context; the realities of mass produced firearms have reduced our firearms, especially shotguns and rifles, to...

Does anyone know of a good source in Colorado or neighboring states who fits rifles? Stuff like measuring drop, pitch, and cast in the stock. I've heard Jon Hollinger out in Aspen does a superb job fitting shotguns, but I don't know if he also works on fitting rifles. Any sources? Thanks, Nick

This is my first turkey season in Colorado, moved in from Tennessee and wow its a new deal! Been hunting turkeys successfully for several years back east, but I've never hunted Merriam turkey before, and obviously the elevation's a different ballgame. Would anyone care to offer some advice to a...
