    .280 AI Powders

    I haven't loaded for the 280AI myself, but a buddy of mine won the Allegheny sniper challenge with a 280AI twice. He used RL17 under 180's if I remember the bullet correctly.

    Helium Balloon for Packout

    Helium is becoming a rare commodity. Definitely not a good long term solution.

    Does a usable FFP reticle exist for hunting applications?

    The G2H reticle is pretty much perfect for hunting, and the LRHS2 scope is a great value too: https://www.gaprecision.net/bushnell-lrhs-2-4-5-18-x-44-g2h-reticle.html Edit to add: I have an original LRHS scope with the illuminated G2H reticles on my .308 hunting rifle. It has been withstood...

    Pre-Post retirement Budgeting

    We do all our own rental management. Since we spend enough hours each year managing it, our rentals qualify as an "enterprise" which gives significant tax advantages. Requiring background checks, direct deposits, and using the turbotenant app to manage the rental enterprise has made things much...

    Pre-Post retirement Budgeting

    I'm 40 years old, my wife and I have 5 rental homes and rent out the basement of my main house. They can be a PITA, but overall they generate income and wealth. There are certain states I would not own a rental in, such as Maryland in my area. Try to be smart too with the houses I buy. Houses...

    Mates 1st deer

    My biggest issue with NZ is the stupid meat importation laws. I am pretty sure it's not legal to import the meant anymore which makes hunting not very worthwhile in my opinion :-(. That's a dumb U.S. law but same effect.

    Pre-Post retirement Budgeting

    What about when costs skyrocket for a medical reason, or for "X" reason? Relying only on your saving and 20+ year projections is a surefire way to be very broke in your latest years. The math is just projections based on assumptions. If your assumptions are wrong, and you have no backup plans...

    260 rem or 260 AI or a 7mm-08?

    I loved my old 260 AI. Great round. I was shooting the 142SMK's right at 3000fps. 28in barrel, and the load was not pushing pressure at all. Shot it in PRS comps for 2 years until I burned the barrel out. Fireforming brass did get old, but it was a sweet round.

    Pre-Post retirement Budgeting

    Plan to have an income producing asset (like a rental property) or some type of job that produces incomr after you retire. The whole idea that one can live off their retirement savings for 20 or 30 years is a bit rediculous in my opinion.
