    Do I have a bad die?

    I had this problem one time and for whatever reason the flash hole on the brass was smaller than the decapping pin. I was using off brand brass. It all went in the trash.

    In Oklahoma, the only place you can’t legally fire a gun is within city limits and the few national parks.

    Big Beautiful Bill

    Everyone has an opinion about Trump in both directions, but I have to believe the reason alot of our unexpected 2A “wins” lately are because Jr. is in the President’s ear.

    Big Beautiful Bill

    I’m hoping for the best, but I never underestimate the possibility of a politician to screw this up. I never want to lose hunting land, but it is time to fix the NFA.

    What have you hunted with your .303?

    My son shot a doe last December with my recently acquired No 4 Mk 1 Long Branch using Remington Core Loks. I will be taking it out this year.

    School me on .416 taylor

    I plan on converting a 300 wm over to 416 Taylor. I like it better than 416 Ruger or 416 Rem. You need to handload though. I bought dies off eBay a few months back.

    Hunting Ethics Of Taking Female Animals In Africa

    I think shooting females is fine, if the management warrants it. However, shooting a cow buffalo and telling someone you shot a daggaboy is called lying.

    35 Whelen

    70% rate with Federal brass is great I think. Good lube and chamfer the case mouth, as Hoyt suggested. I used 60’s era Match brass and was at 100% my first try.

    Method Of Payment

    I agree!!! I laugh when guys won’t take payment through PayPal because those commies are anti gun, but they want postal money orders. I skip right past ads that only take money orders.

    Tulsa got hammered with snow/ice/0° yesterday, we’re not used to this. Now all I have to do today is warm up the reloading room.

    Dallas Safari Club Convention Summary

    I didn’t realize there was a hotel problem in Tulsa . I think the DSC should be in…Dallas. It just sounds goofy to be somewhere else. Figure it out. Sounds like incompetent planning to me. I don’t see Jerry moving the Cowboys to Atlanta when they are doing stadium work?!

    I’m a little biased here… Is Tulsa fairgrounds big enough? Not too far from Dallas.

    Trophy Room - start

    I would drape that zebra across a sofa table against a wall with those engraved bones laid out across it. Mix in a few expended nitro cases and an old vintage fixed blade.

    "Lighter Politics" Humour

    “Journalists” and “news” is misleading. Propaganda ministry is more appropriate.

    Why is it that when it comes to the big British Gun Makers, Rigby are the only brand that offers "affordable" models?

    Which favorite musicians have you met in person?

    I was sitting next to a lady and I was trying on a pair of boots at Academy. Saw a few people getting excited and told the wife, I think that’s Garth Brooks they are talking to. Afterwards he came towards us and I said hello. He introduced himself to me, and Mrs. Trisha Yearwood, whom I was...

    The very first .357 magnum ever was the N frame Registered Magnum in 1935.

    What Watch do you wear when you hunt?

    That’s a bold statement. I like the G Shocks, but not the square ones. I would take my Timex Expedition over a square g shock every time. Would also take all of the watches BeeMaa described, except probably the Apfel watch. That thing has no soul…

    Which scope is ideal for Winchester 70 Pre-64 30-06

    I didn’t realize Nightforce has a capped, illuminated duplex scope in the SHV. Are they as high quality as the NX series? How’s the glass on a Leupold Vari-X compared to say the VX-3?
  49. I

    Which scope is ideal for Winchester 70 Pre-64 30-06

    That’s what I have on my FN .30-06. However, if Leupold came out with a 2-7x36 with firedot in a vx3 or better I would buy 5 of them.
