I have tried searching and I am having no luck. Seems like like a perfect candidate for patching. Lots of case capacity and an odd ball size round with many more options .010 smaller. Has anyone...

I am leaning twords the 300 h&h right now. I am trading emails with a couple barrel makers about a gain twist barrel so I can shoot both cast and jackets.

Look at the neck on the 400 H&H. It is LONG!!!!!

Starting with a Rem 700 action std length with a mag bolt face, what should I build? I want something oddball for no reason what so ever. I have been considering a 300 h&h, maybe some type of...

A rebore from JES is 225 dollars and takes less than two weeks including shipping time. I would really consider the 32 win for simple ease and cost.
Edit - JES recently rebored a Winchester 70...

I want to try smoked feral hog shoulder some day. Brine it for a couple days with maple syrup and peppercorns in the brine, the just smoke it for hours and hours.
Forum: Leverguns
send it to JES and have it rebored for 225 bucks.

If 200 is your max, I prefer a bigger boolit so I would say for a new rifle get a 358. That being said, a 308 will get it done all day every day with proper placement and a good heavy boolit.

Look at the contender wildcats. Jdj, bellmun or bullberry to name a few.
Forum: Leverguns
Not to be a negative Nancy, but is this worth it? Going from .377 to .359 in boolits diameter is a very minor drop. This being cast boolits I figure rolling you own isn't a problem. I think...

Does PA have a minimum barrel length law? We do in Ohio is why I ask. Your pistol wouldn't be legal here if memory serves. Ohio requires a 5 or 5.5 inch barrel minimum, but I am going off memory...

Hey guys, I doubt it is possible but I can not find a definite answer.
Can I PP a heavy 35 cal boolit in a .375 bore?
Figuring .375 - .359 is .016, is that to thick of a patch?
Thanks...

They are an improved AK. The Czech's took the AK, and made it better.

Why not use a 450 Bushmaster? Ammo can be had for "cheap" at PSA. Espically when it goes on sale which is several times a year.

I don't really find 700 yard shots much of hunting. The time I have been out in Montana and Arizona hunting the shots were 2-300 yards. Getting inside of a hundred would have been quite a...

How do you hunt mule deer with a 38-55? All the mule deer hunting I have done is spot and stalk and the deer were shot at 200+ yards. Do you do the same but just get closer or are you chasing them...

Spoke with Jes today. The rifle is will be on its way to him next week to get his assessment. Once it gets there he is going to see if a 9.3x62 is possible, if not a 35 Whelen.
Forum: Factory Rifles
Thank you for those numbers. Maybe if there is enough meat in the barrel I could do a 9.3x62.
Forum: Factory Rifles
Thanks for the twist. I am thinking 230 would be the lightest boolit I will shoot.

Hello guys, got a bit of conundrum on my hands. I bought a Winchester M70 XTR in 270. I wanted the laminate stock for my 6.5x55 because that rifle came with a piece of pulp wood attached. I got a...
