86er - great of you to make these offers - wish that best for you and your guests.

Like those rifles - mine is a 357 with a 4x Leupold compact.

Most rifles are capable of 1" groups at 100 yd with their best loads in my experience. The couple I have that weren't responded to bedding and the two that were the worst are now among the best. A Ruger 77R in 7x57 would go 2 1/2" by 4" groups but after bedding the tang and recoil lug...

I agree with Hobie.

4227 is too fast for the 308 except for some specialty loads. 4895 or the like in speed is more the proper range. Lots of data around on that.

Send it down Pharm - I can help with that - might as well send some ammo too.

Can you guys hunt deer or anything of the like in UK?

So in Leverland we have heavy snow to 114 degrees and 95% hmidity and all points in between - too bad we can't just teleport to where we would like to be.

Regular late fall - high 30s to the low 50s overnight and 50s, 60s may be 70s in the day. Bright and clear.

Nath - I would be interested in any of your posts/pics - certainly more so than many of the OT threads we get. We could always start separate leverguns section. :) Just kidding! I know we have been up and down this road and I start some of the OTs myself. :o That should be a fine accurate rifle. All...

At a certain point 60 - 80 million gun owners will likely express their displeasure in various ways the controllers may not like.

You are OK Jim!

That is a great one. Hard to do that kneeling.

He looks like a fine fellow.

And how do YOU pronounce it?

Excellent long range caliber - my hand loads have taken deer and antelope at 350 yds +. Now the kicker is not by me or in my guns. I never owned one but loaded for a couple of other fellows. 120 gr Speer BT and 50.0 gr IMR 4831 - 3020 fps. One rifle was Ruger #1, the other was a custom Remington 700...

Lovely girl!!!

I decided if I wanted big I would go with big after having both and selling both I bought a 45-70. Then ---- I bought another 444 because ---- I like the rifle.

I get along with all of it.

Sounds like you have made a total avocation of using this one cartridge - what is it you do to be able to spend so much time afield? When I was a kid I spent some part of every day in the fields, woods or at some stream - then came sports and girls.

86er, I always enjoy reading for the benefit of your experience. You always make sense.

Nath - you are one of the guys I most enjoy hearing from.

Paco also thinks highly of it - though many new members won't have read his posts.

Congratulations!

Big Bore 444 is great! One of the best - nothing quite like it.

Heat and meat - that's my cookbook. If you like spices add them.

99 did not get off on a tangent but realized it's potential. 250, 300 etc - 243, 308, 284, 358 - all levers don't have to be pedestrian.

Win 94 is stronger than the Marlin according to the tests these fellow have run.

I have been watching them - thought one was the mothership.

The most challenging position from a logic point of view is saying what isn't.

Jeff, now watch where you are pointing that thing. This is my attorney - she does probate, and - I don't want to use her services YET!

Ganji, I probably believe the same things you do. The "Star" that stopped over Bethlehem obviously wasn't a star in the sky - they don't stop over anything. Whatever they followed in the desert was a cloud by day and pillar of fire by night. That doesn't attach to anything that we can iden...

The turkey is outside in the roaster - 43 degrees tonight - no room in the fridge but there will be tomorrow.

Ganji, standard Baptist interpretation but, even though you may not be, doesn't begin to address the evidence. How about the Star the wisemen followed and the "craft" the Israelites followed in the desert for 40 years - too simplistic.

Sign me up - no sense, no feeling

.

But, I am with 86er, bigger is better here and with likely less punishment but Tutt, you are young and frisky -enjoy it - right Sixgun?

Heavy critter shoot off - 86er's place - 480 vs 454. Tonnage talks __ walks.

Call it Keith Plus!

You 454 guys should be shooting a real gun - 480 Ruger!

Wow - looks great.

Just had rains here over an inch last night and before - portends for a wet year. Last year was dry and the forests are over managed by the lady ranger who thinks they are hers. Have to see what they are up to then.

6pt, I had two old friends who each summer would as they said pack the high country, the Sierras, with horses and mules. Back then they each carried a sixgun - one a 22 mag 3 screw and the other a 44 mag three screw - one for bear if need be and the other for small game.

Thanks Joe, I wondered if that might be the case but the boys at the gun shop are steadily busy all the time and hadn't gotten around to calling what with cousin barry driving gun sales and this opportunity came up because somebody had to have something new and the boys tell me about the new stuff b...

Good pics Scott, interesting comparison.

I think they are a run and in 4 5/8" and 5 1/2".

Plenty of reliable people have witnessed craft/??? doing things way beyond our capability. None of the attempted explanations address that in any realistic way. This includes a few I know but none myself.

Hobie, I went in to order one of the 44 Spls but this was there at a great price and it seems very well fitted - the cylinder/barrel is quite close and the grip/frame fitting is very well done. Cylinder lock up is tighter than most Rugers. I'd like to know how that 44 Spl is when you get it. My favo...

Anyone have one - opinions? Just signed up to get one.

Can't count on March weatherwise but sign me up.

25 miles to the range there New Pig - up and down hill - a lot - warped my rotors - come on up to Lancaster some time and we'll take the 375s out there.

AND, it's 25 miles back

A broadhead and a bullet are quite different. An arrow without a broadhead is more analogous.
