    Annealing

    I have a question on over annealing. Why is the brass considered trash if it's over annealed to a dead soft condition in just the neck shoulder junction? I'm aware that some of the alloys are burned off when the necks are over annealed. But don't know why that would make them unsuitable to...

    Father's day one mile shooting

    My son and I spent the day shooting at one mile and 825 yards. We were shooting a .338 Big Baer (.408/.338) and a .338 Baer (about the same as the .338 Lapua just a tad faster) and a 300 Win Mag at 825 yards (ran out of elevation and had to hold for it). One mile target 24" diameter...

    PA "Backcountry" hunting?

    I have camp just outside of Cross Fork's and use to spend a lot of time in that area. If it was me I'd look at the area along St. Rt. 144 north in the Sproul state forest area especially where Jews Run Road breaks off of 144 N. You can drive back some distance and if you go to the left you can...

    1035 yard bear

    Most are righthand twist but I've been trying different things and so far left gain twist has to me proved to be the most accurate combination.

    1035 yard bear

    After more than 50 years of hunting and 10 years of hunting PA bears I harvested one the last day of the PA season at 1035 yards. Wasn't real big around 185# live according to the Game Commission. But I was happy.

    Drawn out Problem with Leupold Scope - What should I do?

    One thing I'd try is, at the range string your plumb line at some distance, set your gun in your normal shooting position and hold steady on the plumb line and have a someone adjust the elevation in the up direction (the crosshairs should move down on the plumb line) and see if it tracks off to...

    Sorry I miss read your message, more to the point didn’t understand what you were saying. All I seen was reading the wind wasn’t a skill.

    What is your effective range?

    You know barrels are a funny thing. The first barrel I had on my .338 Big Baer was a Hart 1/10 twist and was using 147 grans of 50 BMG and getting 3275 fps. I re-barreled with a Bartlein left hand gain twist 1/10-9.25 twist and running the 300 Berger’s and getting 3185 fps with 137 grains of 50...
