As mentioned above, that RCBS 180 gr.FP comes out a bigger 200gr. for me. I used it in the 30-30 using Leverevolution sending it down the tube quite a bit faster than what you do. The blood trail...

Yes. the XLR is in 30-30. My bullets are water dropped as well. Much easier.

One catch to my equation, is that the 1 to 12 inch twist was necessary. I have several Marlins, most of which are the 1 to 10 twist. My XLR and CB both have the 1 to 12 inch ballard rifled twist.. ...

I did virtually the same thing. (not moose). My load is 35gr. of LEV with that very boolit. I've got 60gr. pure lead on the end and it makes for dramatic blood trails. Velocity is 2340fps.

That is fantastic! When I've been down to hunt in Tennessee, the bucks are half that size!

Its an easy shooting elk gun. I do have a buddy I just hunted elk with that not only shot his elk with his 270WSM, but shot a rather large grizzly one year ago in Alaska. It did a great job with...

Good shooting! Designing your cast load is much more fun!

good shooting! What was your alloy and speed?

View into the swamp. I do not hunt any closer to the feeder than 70 yards, which is about 15 yards beyond what I feel comfortable with using a bow. ...

I love Kansas too! Got some fresher pics of the "hunting field" so to speak;
North of the creek, I have a food plot that this year has a mix of plants. Cowpeas, soybeans, grazing corn, Sudan, pear...

Sorry I wasn't clear. I had a muzzleloader 405gr. load worked up, but because of the heat, I was using a bow. This one a Bowtech with a 125gr. Muzzie. I suppose that's inappropriate. Will shoot a...

Went out the Saturday of our last weekend of muzzleloader. As I'm not desperate this time of the year, I was using a bow, though I do have cast load worked up for my muzzleloader. We hear we're...

Couple of years ago my son and I shot a buck and a doe with the NOE 314-155. The casting had a soft lead nose and was going over 2300fps at the muzzle with H322. This is accurate in my gun and was...

I have applied in Kansas every year for the past 25. Never got a tag and have only known one person to do so. Obviously a once in a lifetime tag! They do have some beauties over there! Good luck!...

i've got 6 30-30's with one Remlin. The Remlin comes close to being as accurate as the 336CB, but cannot match it. The rest of the guns with 1 to 10 twist and microgroove are not as accurate. All...

Good for you. Its funny how our priorities shift as we age.

A year ago I was having a hard time coming up with 7.62x39 brass and Selway had this deal which I jumped...

Exactly what I started out doing, but with my NOE gang mold, it didn't all melt. The ladle definitely was easier and took less time.

I use lead pellets for my soft nose, and can fashion the exact amount I want on the nose. I'm sure it gets blown off and the remaining 130 gr. or so chugs on through.

I've sure had luck with that soft nose (lead method). I know everyone wants to use the around 2000 or less to advantage, but I use 2350fps in my 30-30 because I can. I used the Leverevolution Larry...

Was out shooting at my range (close to Minneapolis)' yesterday, and 3 does watched my from 40 yards away. Definitely not being hunted right now. You're going to have to stay out of that wind!

I am in Salina. They surrounded the house after church. I would post the pic, but iPads are a mystery to me. Good hunting at my farm, at Wilson lake etc. bucks are not as good this year, though I...

Congratulations! I'll try to remember next year to offer to take you out on some public hunting that has lots of deer. Sounds like I'm not all that far away from you. Covered up in deer this am.

10 gr. of Trail Boss with a RCBS 270 SWC

Just got done removing a walnut from a patients stomach. It was stuck for sure. I've removed everything from a ceramic bear's head to an 8 track tape. Funny what shows up and what doesn't. The...
