It'll run with a little higher pressure and bore wear near the throat . Most military surplus ammunition only measures. 3105, not 312 as one might expect. That amount swages down easily in the first...

And THAT would be the Remington Sendero. ;) My 7mm Magnum runs out to 1500 yards, and have gone out to a full mile (not that 1500 is too far short, but...).
My 1000 yard go-to, however is a...
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! I dunno---that's a pretty legendary wing-nut to be comparing him to. I think over at TFL we still have some of his posts archived. Every once in a while they come out when we need a...
WOW, did I miss out on a knot-head trying to pretend he knows something?? DARN IT!! Guess I'll have to just fall back on my decades worth of loading, casting, swagging, etc. and live without his...
Personally, I detest a Bic---MOST of the time. A good fire steel is better. For that matter, even a good hand with a traditional flint and steel is better, IMHO.
THAT being said, I've found a Bic...
The thin mylar pocket blankets, (regardless of marketing hype) were never meant to be used as a stand-alone. The "help" retain heat, but have very little insulting capabilities when you start hitting...
When nothing else is to be had, nip about an inch or so of 550 cord and thread it on like a worm up and over the eye. Then fray out the tail over the hook. It makes a convincing "bug" in a pinch....
All right, ya old coot, you ain't fooling anyone--me at least. I SEE your profile photo. And believe you me, that fire steel is a much better option than ANY Bic lighter--especially up north where...
9796Wouldn't be the first time... I dressed out a good sized Muley doe with this "knife". I did the basic stupid--watered a bush and wasn't paying attention when my knife slid off my belt. I buttoned...
Might look at an NEF then. My .223 has a swap-out 12ga barrel. Changes out and ready to fire in under a minute. Closest thing I'm aware of to what you're looking for. Most combos I've seen are .410 +...
Nope, WAAAY too small for a 16". Looks like a rifled 155MM artillery shell.
With the current powder and primer shortages, I think you could have trouble driving that thing. About 700,000 grains of IMR4895 ought do it. Might wanna reduce that by 5% and work up though. What...
What also works well is Mullen stock, for the same reason. (I love using yucca, but it's not an easy find in CO ;) ). It can be done using JUST stalk--one piece for the drill and two pieces lashed...
LOL Don't sound so distraught. There are cutters, and then there are CUTTERS. I cherish my tools, but when something works for a certain job where others won't, that's the idea of a tool--fill the...
Nope, I DO mean these...

Yup, it was a lengthy project for some, but that's my Burgundian plate. It's been slowly morphing for years and years. When I fought a lot more I was scrubbing rust darn-near every weekend. So little...
Looking good. Never had the patience for chain much--I prefer working plate. BUT, I can give you a few pointers to make things easier.
Before cutting links, stretch your coils. This opens all your...
And you have no health food stores? No organic stores? Not that difficult, really.
Experiment, play, and practice. Look for reed weeds. Mullen is one of my all-time favorites. It works well enough to even drop the bow and hand-spin it. Dry and brown is good. Avoid if it's turning...
True enough, but it's pretty easy to look for the ones that are not contaminated with a bunch of extra garbage. Even buying a pound of raw in the jar is easy to put in any kit. A vacuum sealer is...
((triple-antibiotic salve))
Honestly, if you're worried about it, replace it with a couple squeeze packets of HONEY. Sounds goofy? It doesn't spoil. It is an anti-biotic, anti-bacterial,...
Backpacker's hammock works well. They're compact, strong, light, and large enough to do multiple things. Fishing (dip-net), small game trap, gear stowing, etc.
All-righty-then... I haven't done this in quite some time (surfed a new-to-me forum), I don't stay inside much unless I have to. BUT, came across this by accident and it all seems to run the same...
