Actually, it will also affect shots bearing 0 and 180 degrees, but in a horizontal direction, as your target is moving with the earth while your projectile is in flight.

A cautionary tale, to be sure. I try to keep only the powder I am currently using on my bench. All the rest are in a metal cabinet. Too easy to make a serious bang. That being said, you can never have too many loading manuals, either. I have found serious errors, but fortunately, my education...

Am I the only one who read that he's looking for suggestions for a 338, not a 375?

Here's a photo of my scout next to a coin I shot…..

I did a test some years ago using several different rifles, including a Savage bolt and an Armscor M1600. Fiocchi beat a wide variety of brands and types by q significant margin. Testing was blind- my wife loaded the mags, so I had no idea what I was shooting during the testing.

We're afraid the English might want to reclaim the colonies....

Hmmm- every time I buy the 'wrong' scope, my wife buys something to put it on...... A wife that shoots- a blessing & a curse. No problem convincing her a 'need' a firearm, but I gotta get two....

Marlin 1895GBL 45-70, and a Rock Island 1911 in 10mm. The Rock goes everywhere with me; too many two legged varmints in my neck of the woods....

I agree; your writing style of clear language conveyed without embellishment is like a buffet of various delicacies, each sentence a treat! Greatly enjoyed!

Absolutely stunning, in a great old caliber, congrats!

My wife's favorite is a S&W 1917 Brazilian (2nd contract) manufactured (if I recall correctly) late 1930's. Great shooter, quite accurate and happily devours 230gn ball.

My experience, digital scales, unless that are lab quality, are crap. Even a cheap Lee has better R&R then a digital. Don''t trust any scale unless you've done this: http://www.muelaner.com/quality-assurance/gage-r-and-r-excel/

My local Cabelas has a Browning A Bolt LH in 375HH, and a Remington 700LH in 458WM. They also have a CZ550 Magnum in 500 A-Square, but in RH, in case anyone has problems with Brontosaurus in their garden..... As for me, just a couple in Remington 700's, one in .223 and one in 338WM; neither...

Lots of extra recoil for a modest increase in MV; it's just a marketing hype for people who worry about 150-200 FPS boost.

I share your pain, Brett. Learning to shoot all over again, replacing your battery with lefties. Tough to do; old habits die hard....

It could be worse- I have almost no problem convincing the wife why I need another rifle, but by the time I'm done, I have to buy her one, too. Same with expensive flyrods....;)

Having blown up a couple of pistols due to an error in a reloading guide (and my naivety) my best advice is get as many manuals as possible. Many are available on-line, and I know of one paid internet site (loaddata.com) which is an excellent source. If I find a fair number of recipes that seem...

Good advice, so far- similar, but not the same.

Jaguars- ugh- wonderful when they're in the mood, downright awful when not. Just blew my rifle budget dropping a motor in mine.....

I've heard reference to 200 grain hardcast lead pills for bear loads, but for me, if I'm in bear country, the 1895 in 45-70 seems like a good choice to me. I carry my 10mm Rock Island 1911 daily for 'vermin'....

I suppose someone will bust my chops for my avatar on my first post.... you can't see my eyes... I guess if everyone is going to get their shorts in a twist over a photo, I suppose we should also get worked up over people using something other than their legal name own their posts, too....
