I just purchased a .17 FB in a Remington model 700. It is a fun little cartridge to shoot. I just ordered some brass from Midway. They said it is due to them on the 9th of April.

I second the idea of the CZ 527 Varmit. I have had mine for about a year now. It isn't to heavy and is quite accurate. I also like the beaustiful wood stock on mine.

Years ago, I loaded my ruger 22-250 with W760. The loads were from an article in Handloader Magazine. The Article was by Bob Hagel. 39 grains worked well for me. 41 grains was accurate also, but the primer pockets were expanded and wouldn't retain a new primer. The load mentioned above might to grea...

The carbide dies are very useful for cylindercal and straight pistol cartridges. You do not need to lube them. Bottleneck rifle cartridges require dies that need lubrication.

What powder are you using? The cylinder type powder is much more difficult to run thru than a ball powder. Try a ball powder and you will get more uniform powder weights and there will be less cut powder, which makes the powder dispenser work easier.

Try http://www.bullbery.com for the velocity versus barrel length. They started with 24 inches and went to 12 inches. They claim that 23 inch was the best in their tests.

Thanksgiving is one of the best times of the year. Our familly will be gathered together today. Our youngest daugher, her husband and nine month old grandaughter who live in Arizonia will help make it special.

Happy thanksgiving to everyone!

Excellent hunting trip. You are right, there are a few coyotes in Utah, but many. I still keep trying.

I don't have a CZ in 17HMR but I do have a CZ 22 lr which is very accurate. I have two Marlin .17HMRs that are very accurate. Easilly .75 inch groups a 100 yards. There must be something wrong with your new CZ. Best of luck in getting it to shot or send it back to the manufacture.

Go to http://www.savageshooters.com/ They have all the information that you will need to change a Savage barrel along with recommendations on the needed equipment.

I have had my .257 Roberts for over ten years now. It is a Ruger Model 77 bolt action. The big advantage over the 6mm and .243 is that you can load heavier bullets, up to 120 grain. It is an excellent old timer. It kills deer quickly. I have a 243 but I wouldn't use it for a mule deer unless I used ...

The best safety items when chaning a barrel on a Savage rifle is the go and no-go gauges. If the bolt closes on a go gauge and doesn't close on a no-go gauge then you have the head spacing correct. The Savage system with the barrel nut is a gret idea. It allows a lot of configuring. I have 4 savage ...

I have several hornets. My best is Ruger 77/22 heavy barrel. The hornet brass is thin and sometimes hard to work with. The most accurate load I have found for it is 35 gr Hornady bulllets and Lil'gun powder. The old usual hornet powders and heavier bullet have not produce small groups. I also have a...

They had four bricks of power points. I just bought one. That will last me a year of shooting rabbits with my bolt action JW-15 and CZ 452. I knew that there might be others who have waited for them like I have.
