I have a 3 shot group that looks phony - all three through the same hole. You can only tell by the very slight cloverleafing. I've never been able to do that again either! Nice group though, frame...

Again, I'd be reluctant to paint an older hull just from past experience (which was dramatically terrible - the coating actually created a lovely corrosion stop and the hull blistered under the...

Yikes - maybe if new and no corrosion in it... This is the problem with these riveted hulls, once you start and tighten one bit up the next loose corroded bit shows it face. And they will all be...

Yeah, sitting on a clearing in the Kaimais is a long road to boredom with the occasional moment of total embarrassment haha. Usually when you turn around and there's a yearling hind standing there...

Don't be too caught up in projectile shapes - it's the length of projectile for the twist that governs stability. Boat tail bullets have slightly less bearing surface than flat base meaning lower...

The pliers thing might be OK for longer bullets that aren't crimped (and I have done it) but on anything with a crimp, sealed or softer jacketed the pliers will write the pills off. The collets have...

Not so much the wrong chambering as the same factors would likely influence whatever else is chosen. It comes back to the trajectory, every extra inch of drop at 100 shortens your usable effective...

The thing I don't like about the opinels and mercators is the lack of something stopping you from sliding up the knife if you have to plunge into something for whatever reason. That and the handles...
