    CANADA: Bear Hunt Report, August 28 To September 6, 2025, In Canada

    Fortunately I have 3 lbs of RL15. I have not seen any for sale lately either. Last year I loaded 22 rounds. I have 13 rounds left after last hunting season and firing one shot last week to see if the scope is okay-it still hits point of aim x ring. I will fire two more rounds next week...

    338 06 in Newfoundland

    My last to trips two trips to Canada the Border Services Officers were more interested in checking the information on the form in their computer and collecting the fee. Neither Officer (one land border, one airport) checked the form against gun. That has not always been the case, in previous...

    Muzzle threading questions

    Online from a Suppressor maker? A .375 caliber suppressor, from what I just found on the internet would be somewhere around 9 inches long and weigh close to 2 lbs. That's a long lever. Don't bump it going through the brush...might not break. Might only get knocked out of alignment. That...

    Muzzle threading questions

    Minor Diameter of the external thread on the barrel, correct---the bottom of the thread. The thinnest part of the barrel wall will be bottom of the thread. In this case about 1/8th inch. That is a very thin. Now I confess my only experience with similar devices is installing muzzle brakes...

    Muzzle threading questions

    .665 is pretty thin. AI-Google says 5/8-24tpi is pretty standard for .30 cal to .375 supressors. The major diameter of a 5/8-24 thread is .624. .624 - .375 = .249/2 = .1245 wall thickness groove to bases of the .1245 inch. Barrel is far to small for standard size supressor.

    Muzzle threading questions

    What is the diameter of the barrel at the muzzle. Does the suppressor have a set thread pitch, or are different size threads available? The front sight ramp will have to cut or moved back

    CANADA: Bear Hunt Report, August 28 To September 6, 2025, In Canada

    A footnote to this hunt. Last weekend My lovely wife was discussing the fact we need to take a trip of some sort-maybe a cruise, of a week at a beach resort or even bear hunting in Canada. She was rambling not really seeking a conversation. Monday, we were headed to Lowes and on the way she...

    Hornady 450/400 3"

    Thank you Gents for your feed back. I will not be making this hunt, but my son might, maybe using my rifle. He hasn't decide yet. Your advice is as I thought. Thank you.

    Hornady 450/400 3"

    Took me a while to wrap my head around around this thread. I have read and reread it a couple of times. I kept seeing adding the weight of the charge to weight of the gun to decrease/increase recoil. Click the light went on. The OP is actually addressing increasing/decreasing charge weight...

    Flying With Bullets on Southwest

    I am surprised. I thought for sure you would get busted for that. TSA let you pass with bullets (projectiles) in your carryin-wow! Check bag no problem. Here is what Southwest says about ammunition...
