I would recommend looking at used equipment to save money. I have found several nice presses for quite reasonable prices. My C&H H press was inherited and I have no idea how many second hand dies I have obtained. I like RCBS - if you break or lose anything they replace it for free - just call...

Winchester magnum. I also use them to form 358 norma and 30-338 brass

I have had excellent results fireforming 404 Barnes and Johnson express.i just run new 338WM brass through the sizing die and load a 300g barnes on it and take them shooting. Initial impressio is that it works well. I use 416 Taylor load dara.

Was the 8mm-06 ever a thing in African hunting? Used to have a 8mm-06AI that was exceedingly accurate with Hornady `198 grain bullets.

I find you thinking it's OK to attack our capital and you finding excuses why you think it's OK. The election was never stolen and no court cases ever proved it was stolen. You are so far up Trumps rear you will support him regardless of what he does even if he decides to go against SCOTUS. So...

I have never been happy with s lot of the pardons from any president - I am certain I could find issues but none stand out like the J6's do to me. I would have to research this.

Lets start = 1st amendment - going after anyone that speaks up against him. AP news and 60 minutes come to mind. Choosing to ignore the judicial branch and its directives htps://abcnews.go.com/Politics/6-times-trump-administration-clashed-opponents-court-orders/story?id=120846599 Trying to...

He should not have been put in jail - I do not necessarily have a problem with the deportion of illegal imigrants. But he should not be in jail if he has not been convicted of a crime. If he was found guilty of a crime its time to forget his name. Yes he was put in prison by Trump under his...

I think any time due process is bypassed for any individual or group of individuals in the United States it is wrong, Period. If it can be proven and not hearsay that due process was not properly followed then the case should be thrown out which I am pretty sure is the standard. Yes I have TDS...

I am concerned with MS13 does that make me a gang member? Then prove it in a court of law. If they have such sound facts it would be rather easy to do and then very few could complain including myself. I dont want criminals here in teh states but simply accusing someone should not be sufficent...

Trump pardoning them to me was a crime. When somone willingly admits to a felony in a court of law by thier own admitance seems hard to defend thier actions. Trump not being charged with insurrection to me is amazing, not the right word but close enough. Yes, it is over and a sad note in US...

Of the more than 1,265 individuals charged since Jan. 6, 2021, department prosecutors have secured more than 718 guilty pleas -- including 213 who pleaded to felonies that include assaults on federal officers, obstructing law enforcement and seditious conspiracy...

Pretty evident they attacked the capital - I have none, they went through our legal system and were found guilty of what they were charged with. So you support insurrectionists? I believe that the constitution apllies to anyone in our country.

So where does it say specifically who is and who is not protected by the 14th amendment? https://constitutioncenter.org/the-constitution/articles/amendment-xiv/clauses/701 It states the governments repsonsibiliy not the individuals repsonsibility only thier rights You do believe in the...

Do you believe in due process?

I believe in the constitution and the law ( our judicial system ).

From the article posted above "Xinis questioned the evidence an immigration judge used to determine that Abrego Garcia is a gang member. She said in a ruling that he has no criminal record in the United States or El Salvador and that the “‘evidence’ against Abrego Garcia consisted only of his...

Thank you

Enlighten me the "proof", please

Except Trump is openly talking about it now!

No proof of him being a MS13 gang leader. If you do show me.

The US ( Trump ) adminstration determined him a criminal even though a judge within his power provided him protected status in a US court and he has no criminal convictions. Thinking someone is guilty of a crime has never in itself been sufficent to imprison some one. If someone thinks you are...

Sending someone to a foreign prison without a conviction or due process sure seems to go against our country's laws. Seems more like a police state like Russia.

The heaviest load I shoot which is the 250g bullet is the lightest the 333 Jefferey shoots. According to the nosler reloading manual the best a 338-06 can do with a 250g bullet is about 2400FPS - the 333 beats it by 100fps, Impressive considering the age of the round.

Thats what I did - picked up a JC Higgins model 50 ( FN Supreme action mauser ) and rebarreled it to 7X57 mauser. Put a set of remington sights on it and I am happy with the outcome.

I don't normally shoot past three hundred yards. I find magnum provide the added horsepower when needed. Not all magnums are for long range. IMHO

Makes a lot of sense. When all you have is a hammer everything else is a nail. If a 180 gr pill in a 30-06 isn't enough I will use a bigger or faster 30 cal magnum. The biggest thing have here in Oregon are elk. My 338-06 pushing 225g noslers or mu 300H&H pushing 180g noslers do just fine.

Why not go to a bigger cartridge if you need more energy.

No the heaviest I have used is a 200g partition and went back to 180s.if I need larger I will go to a 338

Moving a button is not hard ensuring that it does everything it did before the button was moved is the crux of the issue.

What I don't get is the need to go outside normal bullet weights with a cartridge. The 30-06 is best in my opinion with. 150 to 180g bullets. They make bullets above and below this range. Instead of making a cartridge something it isn't use a larger or smaller cartridge. I have always believed...

Trying to understand ballisticly how it is superior to other modern 7/8 magnum cartridges? You like it it works for you and old guns are cool these points we agree on. Superior ballistics, nope.

So what kind of speeds are you getting with your 147g bullet with your 280NE and what pressures are you running at?

Correct me if I am wrong but isn't the 280 Ross the samething as a 280NE? My understanding is that the 7mm Remington will out perform that cartridge. Given the 280 NE was ahead of its time.

If given a second chance knowing what I know now. I would have worked as an electrician. I was an electricians mate during my time in service. At that time I worked on everthing up to 440v circuits. Trying to find a good electrician now is difficult. I am within seven years of retiring now so...

256 niender (sp?) would be s good one . I know the 6.5-06 exists but it's a wildcat. To me it is superior to the 270win and the 25-06

I would bet that long after I am dead and forgotten the 30-06 will still be going strong. Guess that would be hard to collect on.

When I was in high-school back in the late 70s there were two tracks - one was college the other was trades. My junior senior year I signed up to go in the Navy so my final year in high-school I took many gedunk courses that were for the trades kids. I aced those courses in high-school...

Bring back .411 bullets tougher than what is used for the 405 winchester. I am using the barnes lrx bullet but they are not rated for the velocity I am shooting them. So maybe the 404 B&J express which will never happen.

I had a mint model 30 express chambered in 30-06 with the crescent button plate. That butt plate sure made that recoil sharp and I sold it to a collector. I thought it better to sell that rifle instead of messing the rifle up. Built a fn mauser in 264WM with the proceeds.

Served on the USS Seawolf with a John Wayne Thomas. Probably a different guy.

Disregard.

To me moving down from the 35whelen would be my 8mm mauser with 198g hornadys.

I grew up watching the Duke I guess he is the closest I have came to having a role model. I remember when he passed. Even as a young teenager I knew it was the end of an era. As far as his choice of a 300 weatherby. I am not a fan. I have four 300 magnums. In order of like comes my 300 H&H...

I have a 35 whelen and a 358 norma magnum. Not sure what a 358 winchester would get me. If the 35 whelen is too much odds are I moving down to a 30-06 or a 308. Just don't see the purpose In my collecttion.

What cartridge is it chambered for?

You have pros and cons to both. Two big advantages of the enfield action it is large enough for the round and the enfield action is stringer. Many cartridges that the enfield action has been chambered in I would not attempt in the springfield I have them both and hold both in high regard.

I think a 1917 or a 1914 would be better than the 1903 for a 375H&H length cartridge and they aren't that exspensive. I do realize we are talking about a 1903.

It is true that us boomers are dieing off I can only.hope the next generation does better even though there is no evidence of such. Good luck. I don't live or vote in Colorado could care less.

Let's see how mid terms go.
