Picked up a Hornady O.A.L. gauge the other day. Going to try to make myself a modified case this weekend. Drill and tap on the way. I have a few other cartridges that can make modified gauges for in the future.
Question I do have is, is an ogive gauge necessary to have for this process? Does...
I has a similar situation a little bit ago. But instead of a tree it was a snow bank. Snow melted and the was my arrow laying on the ground!

I think I got it. I am preparing this kid for an easter Canada moose hunt this fall. After much consideration, I have settled on Nosler 200 grain Accubond bullets. With the scarcity of powder I settled on IMR 4831.
To find the right powder charge, I looked at
my Nosler book and found the most...
Hoping to tighten it up a little playing with seating depth and then stretch it out a little once the weather turns.

Working on some more load development. Doing some fine tuning of the powder charge.
Think I have a winner. Shot a 5 shot group that would have been just over 1 MOA at 100 yards. The impact to the left is another powder charge, the 5th shot I took at the center target. But had I aimed at this...
When should one change the strings on their bow? After a certain number of shots? Years? When they start to fray?
Bought a Hoyt Ventum 30 last May. I have shot it A LOT. Maybe not every night after work but at least 3-4 nights, and many many arrows a night, all the way until hunting season...
I have carried the same Spider Co knife for 12+ years. I love it. It is slim and has a strong clip. The thumb hole for opening is just the right size and the knife is just the right size to carry and not feel flimsy and small in the hand when using.
I use it for everything you’re not supposed...
Following. But will add a twist to this.... What about youth bows? Not sure what the kids are even capable of pulling. They have been shooting cheap Cabela's youth bows. Would like to get them something that they can actually shoot and learn the mechanics on. I am also planning to get my GF a...
I tried once. But I over cooked it and it didn’t turn out well. I am wanting to try again, but I don’t goose hunt. I get any extra breast from my buddy when he is trying to empty the freezer.

Smoke and stuffed venison tenderloin. Stuffed with stove top stuffing and seasoned with a brown sugar coffee seasoning.

Worked up some loads the other day with 200 grain Accubonds. Shot a nice 1” group at a hundred yards. Best group I’ve ever shot with a bigger caliber rifle. Happy about that.
EDIT: the 4th shot that is high is one that I took compensating for the drop.

Thanks for the tip. I usually remove the knock. Blow ins arrow out, clean it with a q-tip with acetone and then a dry q-tip. Then clean the inserts off with acetone before mixing the epoxy.

Great write up! Thanks.
I have been shooting Easton arrows with the HIT inserts. I have moved form the factory aluminum inserts to the brass 75 grain inserts and gluing them in with the HIT epoxy glue. I would like to try hot melt glue for ease of changing the set up. Has anyone experienced...
