Congratulations. And thank you posting bullet information and performance.
This is two stories that become one. Four weeks ago we got a used chicken tractor and five chickens, two that are a year and a half old layers and three pollets. Right after,we contracted COVID and...
Thank you all for the possible fixes and personal experiences. I admit I never checked the throats on one of these because accuracy was always good to great until yesterday. A 9mm bullet passed...
I have used 17.5gr 300MP/CCI 500 primers in all of my 357 pistols and rifles for the last six years with a NOE 182FPGC. Ejection from two model 27's and rifles are easy. The 101's I get a black...

Great grind lines. What grinder are you using? What hardness tester are you using? Did you build your own furnace? Thank you for sharing your work!
My neighbor brought over two more boxes of morels, corals and boletes. Going out tomorrow with him. Drying the boletes and morels. Corals for dinner tomorrow. I'm trying to post pictures. The phone...
It's been a bumper crop mushroom🍄 year here in the Northwest. We've picked hundreds of morels off the lawn and with the neighbor on his place. We've also found a coral and almost a dozen boletes.
I...
A Midwestern farm boy, I remember getting out of the Army the first time and working the docks in Seattle. Half the guys I worked with were born and raised in Alaska and went south for their own...

Interesting thread. I've only shot one very small black bear with a 30-06 and a 180 grain jacketed premium handloaded bullet. One shot and over quick. I've only run in to a dozen or more black and...

Two years ago was my first turkey. I was in the shop early fall reloading and I noticed a group had come in pecking hoppers off the lawn. In the shop I only get reception from a small window as it is...
Put in for Big Horn Sheep. No joy. Still have a chance on a Super tag.

Good information and history provided. It prompted me to spend a little more time web surfing. This threads author https://www.firearmstalk.com/threads/t-c-contender-45lc-410.17138/ says he inherited...

I have a 10" T/C Contender barrel marked 45 Colt with adjustable rear sight and post front sight I purchased about 10 years ago from ebay. I use 2 1/2" and 3" shells. I have taken several grouse a...

I did a little more testing with the Outdoorsman load. I moved the bullet to a COAL of 1.050" and got a 5 shot average of 1058 fps from a Glock 19 with a Lone Wolf barrel. Their was light leading and...
I just ran out and got single round readings from the following guns with 4.9 grains of PP and RR Outdoorsman bullet. Snowing here, I apologize for the small sample.
Ruger SP101 2" 983 fps
Glock 19...
I realize this is an older thread but I wanted to add to it and see if anyone has done anymore with this.
I bought 1K of the 148 gr Outdoorsman cast that BB uses from Rimrock Bullets two years ago...

Congratulations on a successful hunt. Let us know if it tastes different killing it with jacketed over cast or broad head. ;-)
It is interesting to think about Bigfoot from the skeptics point and the believers. I am inclined to give both merit but it is a complex situation not to be simplified either way. One says they have...

I pulled this information from the Winchester Ammunition website and put it in a Word document for myself because it was in as many places as their are bullets and difficult to compare. I thought...

That was unfortunate you were not able to recover the deer. I have taken three deer with cast bullets and none of them stayed in the deer. Two of the bullets were 16 BHN, one shoulder and one in the...

Very cool. Congratulations. Is that a 6" barrel?

Congratulations on your first cast bullet deer!
This reminds me of my first still hunting deer. I had been reading Francis Sell's book on deer hunting and teaching myself to Still Hunt. I was...
