Interested in your project. I've been buying Bear Creek Arsenal uppers like they're going out of style, working on a couple of 6.5 Grendel right now (not for casties, though). 450 Bushmaster has...

I've had good luck with my Craftsman router. Trimming Formica counter tops, making special trims for little projects is a snap with the Horsepower of the older ones. You might find one at a garage...

Relic, what does your 1951 35 Remington Marlin like for cast? I have one same vintage, a Sporting Carbine. The RCBS 35-200 boolets are a little oversized in the nose for the carbine, but I picked...

Nice bear, Dinny. 190 is a good sized bruin. Should be pretty fat this time of year, and delicious! The fat renders down into the finest cooking oil. Good for waterproofing your boots too....

I've always figured that a guy's "luck" is whatever he can make it! Some guys are willing to go that extra mile to get the edge on their game. I like a warm place to hunt, and like being able to...

Congrats on a beautiful whitetail! That's as pretty a buck as they come. I'm just now getting comfy with cast bullets, and my confidence in them is growing every year, but a few small calibers...

The boolet entered the skull just below the near ear, (must have been at a 45 degree angle) and exited low on the neck. I took a CSI type picture with a rod thru the hole showing bullet path I'll...

Thanks for the tip on Trichinosis, kootne. I cook thoroughly, not pink at all. Browned both sides of these thin fried steak/ medallions, and they stay tender.
The rifle is a Danzig WW2 98 Mauser...

Texas by God has graciously offered to post a couple pics. Thank you, Thomas! And thanks for your offer, Mike. Nice guys, all.
Forum: Hunting with CB's
But you'll have to take my word for it. Can't get any pics (have lots) to load. Crossed the road in front of the truck and stopped in a brushy opening, looked back at me (75 yds). Beaned him! ...

Doug I've got a 1953 Marlin 336 SC in 35 Remington. Would be interested in having it throated for PC cast boolets. Have RCBS 35-200 and a Saeco clone to work with. Will still be good for jacketed...
