Thanks for the replies.

One of my buddies ended up with a shitton of brass. He says its about 20-25 years old once fired. I took a look at it yesterday and he has 6 full home depot buckets. From what I can tell 95% is federal 223 headstamps. None of it has been processed in any way. Does brass degrade to where you shouldn't reload it? 556 ammo is getting too expensive these days and if I could just buy what he has I can load thousands of rounds and eliminate my supply issues. I already have a supply of H335. I just need to track down CCI 41's and projectiles.

Thanks for all the replies. I ended up getting an privacy enclosure from bass and going the weed sprayer route.

We should all pitch in.

that was quick

I saw one east of Houston a few weeks ago. They have everything there. Can't find it on maps. It was right of i 10 I think.

Another stab at red flag laws.

clarification, pack is $200 alone.

Adding the pack. Will post pictures later. $200.

$250

so I'm finally going to start building on my model 16 300 wsm. I already picked up a bell and Carlson target stock and found a deal on bottom metal for it. I picked up a vx5hd, but I'm shelving it and ordered a nightforce nsx. I'll be using it as is for this year's coues hunt, but after that I'll be ready to tear into it. To late in the year to make any major changes. Right now it shoots 167 grain bergers really well, but I have lost all confidence in that bullet. Of all the animals we have taken i have never seen any evidence of expansion. I would like to shoot a heavier round, but I dont want to give up too much speed. I'm right at 3160fps right now. I don't know much about working on bolt guns, so I'm sure I'll reach out to axis works to get this going. What would you guys recommend for a barrel, knob, and muzzle break? I was thinking about an atlas bipod, but if there are other suggestions I'd love to hear them. Looking forward to the input.

I have an archery elk hunt coming up thats consuming most of my time.

Not low power lines. Looks like a zoo enclosure to me. Fair game, shoot away!

Thanks for the offer, I have a pile of those already. Ill give them a try after this years hunt. Too late to start a new load this year.

Last time I had a street taco it came with crab 🦀

I'm sure its too late, but did you end up selling it?

This is the stock I have. #2014. I think(I am by no means an expert on this) as long as the action screw measurement is the same and the bolt release is in the correct configuration they will work across the different models. I had to get bottom metal for this particular stock and track down longer action screws.

I have had a few coues walk away to never be found. Zero blood. The ones recovered also had very minimal blood, but also did not have to track them. The elk we have shot were heart shots so no big deal there. Maybe a heavier berger moving a little slower would expand better? I just like knowing that what I hit dies. Wounding and not being able to track sucks.

Mine is older with the top bolt release. Bell and Carlson has them for both.

I've heard that from several people. My 300wsm and my wife's 7mm refuse to expand for some reason.

I hope it's not cwd.

2020 needs to be over. At this rate the entire state is going to burn down and put more firefighters at risk. Where the F are the monsoons?
