    Unsealed powder

    I have a few old cans as well and I still think/hope I have an old 700x 8 or 10 lbs black glossy keg that looked like an old bean can(the round rings on it) with the yellow label still on it. from the late 60's. remember the old cans that were square and short with the metal lid? those were cool but they took up to much room on store shelves so the made them thin and tall.

    Tag transfer question for anyone with experience.

    Thats cool. he should do fine. only warning I have is kids dont know when to quit. meaning your going to hang around them the whole time and you dont have the energy that kids have. I mean they will hunt all day long and not rest then the next day and the next day. your going to be dragging no matter how good of shape your in. I do recommend you give them some survival techniques so to speak. cause you will get split up. at the age of 8-9 my Daughters were were carrying a 22 pistol and extra mags a knife lighter space blanket 50# feet of paracord in her day pack obviously water too., teach them to keep an eye out on landmarks and show them the roads on a map and those landmarks compared to where you are. tell them to walk a straight line and not walk in circles. also teach them to drive cause if your out in the booneys and something happens to you your kid is screwed. you dont need to tell the wife cause they just get nervous and bitchy about them by themselves having a knife and pistol.. also tell them how to make a makeshift cover to stay dry and warm if they do get lost. tech them tokeep and eye on fence lines also as they can follow one if they get disorientated. My wife about $hit bricks when she found out our kid was going on hikes while I doozed off, or that I let them drive on dirt roads when they can barley reach the pedals(we always hid the keys in a place outside the truck just incase or give them a set of extra keys) and them them have a pistol and knife in there backpack. at a young age. Maybe because they were daughters I dont know. but the kids will tell them by mistake or it will slip out the Wives always find out. I dont mean to have your kid lie to there mom just dont offer any information thats unless asked. Also remember celphones dont always work in the woods so dont rely on them. the next 7 years of your life is going to be the most fun ever with your kid out in the field. to the point where when they dont hunt with you its boring.

    Tag transfer question for anyone with experience.

    I knew it was legal cause we did it with our kids, but grandpa and The Warden never got drawn. but I got drawn alot for elk and lopes so I passed mine to them. then I read the rules and didnt see it I was like WTF. reread them slowly and saw the OR . One thing I didnt know/ paid attention too was the 50 yard rule as my kid would take off and go hunting while I enjoyed a nap, or she would walk for ever up and down canyons that I wouldnt hike cause as she said "I was too old." now that the kids are all grown up I will be able to pull the trigger or release the bow on something providing I get drawn. even if you get drawn pass all your tags to your kids, that the most fun hunting EVER.. we always put in the kids Separate gives a better chance of getting a tag. I passed over 1 lope tag 2 north rim deer tags 12b and 13a and 1 late rifle bull unit 9 tag and 3 early unit 8 archery bull tags to our kids. best thing I ever did in my entire life.

    Tag transfer question for anyone with experience.

    100% legal and its spelled out as such.
  13. not likely. a non sighted barrel would be far easier then have the holes drilled. you will probably have to still run a finish reamer in there for the gages or worse case skin the barrel face. The Remington take offs and barrel replacement was always easier cause you just surface ground the barrel lug for fit or find one a tad bigger

    ISO 30-30 bullets only

    for some reason 30-30 bullets are tough to get. last year in Jan I found a box at Cabelas only 1 box very expensive, they had everything else except flatnose or round nose. You can try Randles in glendale

    Reloading question

    I drove by there yesterday I was wondering what that line was all about.

    Unsealed powder

    If I were you I'd call Hodgdon or email them to find out, if you give them the lot# they will tell you whats up. to me its something to be concerned about, mainly Tampering and also moisture issues. The other thing is sometimes the seals get stuck in the caps, ive had that happen in the pass.

    Reloading question

    That shouldnt be a problem if there is a load called out for it in the book and its followed, if theres no load for it than you dont do it. also primers make a huge difference in different powders. if they state a mag primer with this powder(usually in foot notes) then use it. This is also why you NEVER EVER BUY powder in opened/unsealed containers cause you dont know what your getting

    Reloading question

    They would have to be licened (ammo manufacturing)and have good insurance.) I'm sure you have friends you "TRUST" that reload. go spend an hour or so with them and drink some beers, its amazing what can get done.

    Free vortex Rangefinder box, case etc.

    That sucks man, if it makes you feel any better, I lost my range finder back in 83 the old line up the 2 images red and green color type ;) it was about a day old. I hiked over 4 miles to that hillside in north kaibab after a long drive from phoenix figured I would hunt there in the evening .ended up falling asleep and woke up after dark. later that month over by Christopher Creek, archery hunting I fell asleep yet again woke up in the dark. goto the 1972 dodge colt and you guessed lost my keys. window was down partway unlocked door, found screwdriver in back seat grabbed a rock and smashed it into the ignition. that was my key for the next 3 years in that car worked perfectly. guy who bought the car asked for the keys and I handed him a Screwdriver.

    7mm mag reload questions

    No thats how you work up a load, one bullet one powder. you make about 15 of each in different grain increments. use 3-5 for 100 yards then 3-5 for 200 yards etc etc. see what groups the best. I'd start in 1 gran increments. get your results then maybe try .5 grain between your best groups and see if it improves. if you dont get what you want then grab another bullet same powder, then change powders. guys that have different powders and bullets will load the same thing with there different powders and bullets and do the same. go out and shoot all day. then be close to having a load working perfectly. Remember just becauses one gun shoots good with xxx load doesnt mean someone elses rifle will shoot the same group with same load.

    Any ideas?

    Yup back then stuff like that were sold to tourist(mostly military members). there were stores everywhere around the bases selling this type of stuff. funny thing the more north you went in Japan the pop art changed, wood carved bears were huge back then up north. Buhhdas were more inland, the more south you went buhhdas looked different. it all depended on the prefecture (like counties) to what type of buhhdas and other stuff you found. if you can find some way to get it dated that would be cool. in japan at least sacred stuff was never sold it was handed down to family members.

    Any ideas?

    One of these days I'll have to see if I can dig up some old pics. Moms got tons of them that I took back then and she has Thousands of my dads old slides. I know she has a few dishs and stuff I got in a old dump behind of the old samori training areas. There was a old traditional school close to the base that taught old school traditions. that place was like a museum when I was a kid. they let me go in there and watch all the time. they showed me how to make bows arrows, samuri swords etc etc. they dd it all there.

    Any ideas?

    Oh yeah thats cool. I dont remember the name we just saw alot of different buhddas back when I was a kid. tons of shrines too. there was an old graveyard on the base in yokohama. it was in nehgishi(sp) heights. as kids we walked through it alot and there was also different types of figurines of buhdas on graves and some really cool stuff.

    Any ideas?

    kutani figure of bodhidharma type into a search engine shows a few, but nothing with the japanese writing on it, and the eyebrows are different. you seem to have a rare piece or one that Unique forsure. it may or maynot be worth something as I wasnt really looking at the monatary value just the coolness factor.
