      Reservoir Off of I 49 Near Washington

      What info does anyone have about the reservoir and rest area off of I49 near Washington? Is there a boat launch? Is the lake deep and clean enough to ski? Any fishing? It doesn't have a name on Google from what I can tell. Any help is welcomed. Thanks.

      300 Blk, to Crimp or not to Crimp

      I'm making a trial of 300 Blk loads using Hornady 125gr SST and a variety of powders, H110, Lil'Gun, and 4227. Pretty much following the Hornady manual. The SST do have a cannuel with the OAL around 2.100". I've read a bunch of varying opinions on whether crimping is good or not. I realize...

      Hornady American Series Dies

      Does anyone have experience with the relatively new Hornady American Series Dies? It looks like it is Hornady's attempt to get into the entry market dies and compete more with Lee. Cabelas has some pistol sets for ~$30 right now.

      Using Hard Cast Bullets with Hi Tek Coating

      I've been reloading hard cast bullets from Missouri bullet in .44 Spl, 45 Colt, and 45 ACP. I see now that both Missouri Bullet and Bayou Bullet are offering hard cast with Hi Tek coatings. It is supposed to reduce barrel leading amoung other things such as reducing lead contact, etc...

      WTS: Advanced Technology (ATI) Ruger 10/22 Stock

      For sale is an ATI tactical stock (folder) for a Ruger 10/22. I purchased this about a year ago, put it on my 10/22 and decided that I preferred the Butler Creek folder for my particular rifle. It is used as I had it on for about a month and took it to the range once. There are no visible...

      CMC Trigger Drop-In

      Anyone have experience good or bad with the CMC drop in trigger group, 3.5lb? I'm thinking about getting one for an AR in 300 blackout that would be used primarily for hunting.

      H&R Handi Rifle Barrel Program

      I was on the phone today with H&R to find out if an SB-2 receiver I was looking at could have an additional barrel fitted after hunting season. The customer service rep told me that the program was stopped "today" and that they had not updated their website yet. Has anyone else heard about...

      Sawyer Point One Emergency Water Filtration Kit

      I've been reading up on larger volume fitration kits and the Sawyer Point One seems to have excellent reviews. It attaches to a 5 gal bucket (not provided) but has the standard .1 micron fitration level (meaning that it gets almost everything except viruses). It's also gravity fed so no...

      44 Mag, 240 gr, RNFP vs Keith Style

      I did a search thru the forum and made it to page 10 of 70 with no good results so forgive me if I'm bringing up an old topic. Either way, I'd like to get BS opinions on the differences of a 44 Mag 240 gr round nose flat point versus a 240 gr Keith style as a general woods load. I'm trying...

      Alliant Power Pro 300 MP with .44 Mag

      I was able to get my hands on some Alliant Power Pro 300 MP (+1 to Advanced Weapon Systems of BR). There is some load data on the Alliant website and I've searched through this forum and other online sources. There is some load data for the .44 mag pistol with 300 MP in the Hornady manual...

      Chicot State Park Lake

      Anyone been to Chicot lately? Family going camping in two weeks and I might bring my boat and do some riding. I haven't been on the water there in way too many years so I have no idea of what or even if there are clear boat lanes. Obviously, I know that ever since they drained it 20 yrs ago...

      Bullet Manufactures Supply/Demand

      This could just be perception only, but why does it seem that Hornady is able to get out a good assortment of the more popular bullets and calibers better than Barnes, Nosler, Speer, and other manufactures? Both in stores and online, I'm able to find "most" of the bullets that I'm looking for...

      .44 Mag with IMR 4227

      I went to the shooting range yesterday to test out 44 mag loads in a break action 44 mag 22" barrel. The brass was mixed, some new with some fired. The bullets were 240 gr Hornady XTP and powder was IMR 4227. OAL were all 1.605 +/- 0.002. My goal was to set up a hunting load that could...

      This Year's Hurricane Readiness Project

      I test ran my generator over the weekend and realized just how loud it really is. I guess last time it ran, there were plenty of other generators making the same noise so it was not as noticable. So, I decided to make a sound buffering box to help reduce the sound. I ordered some 1/2" OSB...

      WTS: Kelty Tioga External Frame Backpack - $50

      For sale is a Kelty Tioga external frame backpack. I purchased this pack about 10 years ago. It's been used exactly 1 time. There is a scratch on the aluminum frame. All pins and straps are included. I even have the original instruction page on how to adjust it.

      Pocket sized Multitool on Amtrak

      Does anyone have experience with having a multitool on an Amtrak train? The website says that blades are not allowed. Anyone have first hand experience?

      Rossi vs Remlin, 44 Mag Lever Action

      Tomorrow I hope to solve one of those great mysteries of life and shoot a Rossi 44 mag with the same hand loads under the same conditions as a Remlin (Marlin barrel, Remington action, assembled by Remington after they started back up). I made up a variety of .44 special and .44 mag loads to...
