Sorry, Wayne.
Correct velocity is 2020 fps.

Here it goes, gents.

Alloys were quite hard. .308 and .358 used a mix of wheelweights and linotype, waterquenched. .280 used straight linotype. We discussed the matter, but the man argued that...

Here it goes, gents.

.358: One PMZ(poor man's zebra) broadside chest shot at 100 y. ran 30 y. transfixed.
Two PMZs shot quartering away, 80 and 100 yd.. Both had broken shoulder, fell...

In Speer's Reloading Manual number 9 I saw a reference of a wildcat 8mm/338 called "Poor Man's Magnum". Nice nickname, no doubt. So "poor man's zebras' are those equines that differ from true zebras...

4fingermick's recipe goes quite well with coffee Texas style:
:coffee: Put half a gallon of water to boil. Add 3 pounds of ground coffee. Let it boil for an hour. Throw in a horseshoe. If the...

Boys, no kiddin'. Ol' goats must be seasoned with ground pepper and salt for at least a week, at a suitable temperature. Makes a sort of soft jerky. Then marinate for 2 days, no economy on onions and...

Gentlemen, as promised, here is the report about .308 cast bullet at 1700 fps for hunting wildgoats.
I used a Lyman #31141 cast from an alloy very close to Lyman's n.2, weighting 170 gr. at 1700...

Rbstern, I've been shooting/hunting with Rossi 92 .357 mag. carbines along 20 years. Never used nothing lighter than 158 gr. casts on them. Those 158s at 1800 fps. are accurate in my carbines, and ...

Next Sunday I have a meeting with some feral goats. If they show themselves, I intend to greet one of them with a 170 gr. Lyman#31141 cast with n. 2 alloy fired from a nice BRNO .308 at a muzzle vel....

Good day, gentlemen.

Couple o' buddies and myself have been talking about minimum muzzle vel. in a .30 cal rifle acceptable for hunting game up to whitetails, cast, of course, shots up to 100...

Just a curiosity: How does solid vaselin perform as a bullet lube, say, for .45 ACP aplications?

Seems a rather basic question, but I don´t have an answer...
I'm working .357 mag. loads for a Puma carbine, using 180 gr truncated cone bullets (cast, of course) plus 15 gr. of H110. and...

This is a joke published in PUNCH magazine, around 1900, but, I'm afraid still quite current.

At a hospital's vestiary, 2 surgeons chat when a third one comes in, showing evidence of beeing...

Whenever we discuss any medical act, such as prescribing a drug, it must be kept in mind that the purpose of medical practice is to enhance TIME and QUALITY of life. Whatever we do, must, all the...

Classical surgical treatment - laminectomy- in a case like ours (a similar condition affects myself) is not a guarantee of improvement. Honest statistics (a contradiction? LOL) show 30% worsening,...

Deputy Al, thanks for your kind words. Bret, I've never been found superhero like bfore, I feel great!
Gentlemen, I'd like to make a couple of points, valid for all of us.
1. Disease is an...

Nooo, Scrounger! Diabetes is positively NOT worse than death! Just face it, do what must be done, and it will be tame. Better than any argument, let me expose a fact. I care for a lady along the last...

Bret, I am a physician, actually an endocrinologist. Lipitor is the commercial brandname of a drug called atorvastatin, one among the big group of statins. These drugs are effective in lowering total...

Been shooting a 7x57 , using a load of 160 gr. Lyman 287641 + 36 gr. of IMR 4064 , estimated muzzle vel around 2200 fps. Good gun rest, reliable 4X scope, tight screws, clean barrel, no undue barrel...

My son and myself have Rossi .357 mag. carbines. Not too hard to find their accuracy loads. These little carbines are a dream to tote while at the woods, and while fishing as an ensurance against...

Now, isn't life a most amusing thing? I pose a question about a man who had dogs with booze names, a light-hearted member adds some spirited sugestions, and the info comes from a guy named......

Sure. And he had also a pair of cats - Ice and Soda. Now, what about the man's year of birth?

That's a hard one, I reckon...
Do any of you know the year of birth of Cap. James 'ngongonjaa' Sutherland, famous ivory hunter of last years of XIX and early years of XX centuries? All I know is...

Sure, JDL. The mold is a custom one, not a comercial brand. The bullet has a generous meplat, 2 lube grooves and a crimp groove, and is gas checked. Alloy was straight linotype, lubed with a double...

Not moose, but I guess feral cattle bulls are on the same class of animal. There are some remnant wild cattle without commercial value at a farm we are allowed to hunt deer, and nevertheless their...
