My cousin and myself are lucky to have sole access to 480 acres of family land to hunt, on the side of a management area of several 1000's of acres. He still works full time, as for me I am retired....

19.5 grains 2400. I am shooting the long flat point for penetration, and the slap effect on impact. Maximum range that I can see is 70 yards. I set this load up just for a specific use, Hog...

Finely caught one of my modified 311284 flat points, I shoot to kill what I shoot at,and I watch my background. Yesterday I lined up a shot on a large boar hog and shot him through the shoulders. Did...

Mossberg 590S Shockwave will also shoot the short shells as well as the normal 2 3/4 and 3 inch. I have 2 and after 100rnds in each gun I am happy with mine.

The Chaszel adapters are very well made, I have 3 - 45acp/45 cowboy -18 inch, 327 magnum - 16 inch, and 45/70 -18 inch. All are accurate , glued (jb weld) the 327 insert into a 18 inch 410 barrel and...

I observed one in an old levergun that was 7 holes drilled in the stock. The cover was a piece of leather screwed down at one end, and a snap at the other end. Half of the snap was screwed to the...

Get an egg fishing weight and use that to slug the bore. I start it into the bore from the chamber(oil the bore,it helps)and once it starts you most times can push it by hand(except if you run into...

Thanks again Larry, count is up to 30 pigs at this point.Ended up using 2400, with my cast bullet, 1700 fps, 1 inch at 50 yds. Have not stopped a bullet yet, even with Texas heart shots. Most shots...

My model 6 has 3 lugs on the bolt, do the older 760's have the multiple lugs?

Thank you Larry - my bullet will push in with finger pressure and has no wiggle room, the lands do not engrave the bullet- but they do make marks on the nose. I will try your suggested powders. We...

Been playing around with a 311284 single cavity HP mould that was modified in the past(not a factory HP mould). Bored out the HP pin bore to .260 dia and made a flat point pin. The bullet cast is 214...

If I can find a used barrel, I am thinking of a .451 wildcat on a 308 case for my model 6 (same barrel assembly as a 760) Easier large cal. would be a rebore to .358 Winchester.

Received a Remington Model 6 in 308 Winchester for Christmas from my son. The model 6 is the last of the Remington Pump Rifles, discontinued in the mid 80's. Mine was kind of ratty looking and the...

Had an older one(had the round grooved forend) for a short time probably 35 years ago in 270 Winchester and it shot well. Have always wanted another one.

Yes it has a 308 case head in the receiver. Last model of the pump rifle, I think it was discontinued in the mid 1980's. I will be happy with less 2 inches at 100 yards with hunting loads. Also want...

Son gave me a project Rifle for Christmas, a 1980s Remington model 6 in 308 that had been much abused.Previous owner said it would not hit a watermelon at 50 yards. Unwrapped it and looked it over,...

Have a TC 45 cal. maxi ball mould, cast of stick on ww, seated flush, 5gr bullseye in a 18 inch 45/70 is pretty effective out to 50yds on 120ish pound deer and hogs. And its pretty quiet.

Use Goop glue, holds very well and cleans off with gas.

Here in my part of Florida shots are 100 yds max. This year I am shooting a 30/30 load that was an old drilling load in the past. I have come to believe that a meplat of close to .300 or larger, a...

Just a drill with a really long bit, to poke holes with.

I have a 1940's lathe and milling machine, like me ex Navy. Am going to build a small rail that screws to the barrel and cantilevers back over the top strap, don't want to drill the top strap( sorry...
