    Winchester 1886 50-110 EX

    Santa has been nice to me and left me a beautiful new Winchester (Miroku) 1886 .50-110 completely done up by Turnbull. It is the takedown version and has a 24" barrel with a 1-20" twist to stabilise heavy bullets. I was doing preliminary load development this weekend and was getting clover...

    Siamese M98 in 50-110

    Is it possible to modify and build up a Siamese M98 in 50-110? They seem to work well when modified to 45-70 or 348 win, 50-110 might be a good step up.

    370 Sako Mag (9.3x66)

    Does anyone have any experience with the 370 Sako Mag, also called the 9.3x66mm? I've seen some Sako ad's listing that caliber, but haven't heard or seen much else. I contacted Sako about it, and they told me that it was developed for the Nordic countries to use on the big bears and elk...
