10Turkeys

300RUM, I believe your statement to be true, that is assuming the barrel is fairly new, and if the lands were worn at all, they would be even. I have heard both sides of the argument, that the bullet would straighten itself out before if left the barrel, and the other side that no way that a bullet would. Like the guy from Sierra said Alot of varibales. Another thing to think about that there is alot of slop in a typical factory barrel, any slop in the chamber area and the bullet might be off center from the get go.

Saw Lances post about the case splitting, and I've ask this one question before, but here goes again. Say typical 30-06, 150gr bullet, 24 inch barrel, 3000fps, either case splits or primer pocket loose, how much velocity loss do you think there will be? Question two same scenario with the 30-06. Say the bullet isn't seated right, say 3 thousands run out, and is seated 15 thousands off the lands, will that bullet straighten out before it exits the barrel, or does it leave crooked. If it leaves crooked, assuming whatever twist the barrel is, having a right hand twist, is the bullet going to land to the right of the target, or however it was loaded into the chamber with the run out?

Normally I ask to talk to Tommy Todd, but I think this guy said his name was Paul.

I called Sierra Bullets this am. Question number one was answered with I couldn't tell you, but your definitely going to lose velocity, second answer was your definitely going to have some yaw, where it would impact, couldn't tell you to many variables.

The number of guns listed on a safe is right up there with temp ratings on a sleeping bag and numbers on a tent as to how many will fit. I have a Liberty safe that I'm happy with. It's supposed to be a 15 gun safe, but there is no way 15 guns is going to fit inside. I also have a Stack On that is rated for 8, but no way for that either. The Stack On safe is just going to keep an honest man honest.

The knife for boning, glove for safety.

Got mine too.

From what I understand the Tikkas have metric threads on them, and not a whole lot of gunsmith want to deal with them. I know a guy in the Tucson area that will. If you want his contact info, post up and say so, them I will PM you his info.

I like Casey. I like Vowell, also.

This is an out of the box Tikka T3x 30-06, no load development, just seat the bullets so they will go in the magazine. In my opinion since ATK took over Savage Arms, I don't think they are that great out of the box anymore.

My hunting buddy's and I were sitting around a campfire discussing knifes, I was saying in my opinion squirrel and Javelina dull a knife faster than anything. My buddy told me to get a knife made with s30v steel and the blade would hold an edge. I got a Kershaw, love how the blade holds an edge, but not crazy about the shape.

I shot one, I believe it was in a .223, maybe it was the gun or maybe it was the ammo, wasn't to impressed. I would spend a little more and get a Tikka. No worrys about getting it bedded, trigger job, no BS, shoots right out of the box.

Yes Sir, Happy Veteran's Day. Thanks to my fellow Vets!

Forlorn Hope, I was writing that post just after you posted yours, didn't see it til after mine was posted. Got it.

If it is a done deal, someone is definitely in violation. When I was in 23 looking around for a Bear, there was a minimum of three cameras on every water hole.

They're finalized now. yes they are. 37B General hunt.

This guy and gal that I know went down to Louisiana during the worst possible heat and humidity, when they came back, they were calling each other Beaudroux, so I ask what that meant, I was told that is was kinda like deodorant for your butt crack that they sell there. Oddly enough I was in a Drugstore in Tombstone, and they were selling it. Don't know if it would work around the eyes though.
