Well, here on ironsights.com ..............................

Hobie ???

Well, if that is the case, MikeB I can tell you my 94 in 25-35 is very accurate with 117s.

I like scopes but I never drill holes in anything to put them on. Probably wasn't meant to be on this rifle.

Just bought a rear barrel band screw from Brownell's, $14.50 I believe. Make sure you get the right one for your serial # rifle, my gunshop ordered the wrong one first then reordered.

In Pet Loads Ken Waters reports that Remington used a 1 in 10" twist in its 25 Remington barrels. He also reports that he got excellent accuracy with a 117 gr. Remington bullet at 2124 fps in his Model 8. The 25 Remington is the ballistic twin of the 25-35.

In the 7x57 Winchester has used at least 3 different twists in the Model 70 from 1 in 8 1/4" to 1 in 10". They also used a 1 in 12" twist in the 307 wihich shoots 170s in the same general speed range for many loads according to Speer #11. The Savage 99 used a 1 in 12" for bullets...

Sectional density on a 117 25-35 bullet (.253) is less than that of a 170 30-30 bullet (.257) at the same velocity. Seems if one will Stabilize at 1 in 10" the other will.

The Clintons are idiots and THEY WANT YOUR GUNS.

Somebody has to like the new ones - that'd be me, 85-05. Beautiful here too. Long Beach yesterday, Jimmy's Fish Grill - great place - love the cherrystones on the half shell. Back in the desert today.

High end stuff!

No direct experience but bullets of greater sectional density are stabilized by a 1 in 10" twist.

Congratulaitons on the Renegade. I suggest you contact TC; they replaced fpr no charge a stock on one of their rifles that a fellow I knew sent in that had been damaged.

Not quite a 300 Savage.

KirkD, barbed wire artiste !

Beautiful !

Good because the pressure was beginning to build.

Great looking gun.

That is the feeling I had. The powder would probably resist the bullet going any deeper in recoil without much roll crimp.

Mike, I have some Federal factory 200s and some Remingtons. As I shake the Federals and listen it seems there is no space left but there is a little with the Remington factory loads.

It seems to be mildly compressed when I load it, just filled the space. Might depend a little bit on how your reloader drops the powder. In My RL 550 it gets shaken a little as it moves from the powder drop to the seating station as it does when the case comes down from the powder die. It gave me 20...

Mine shoots Rem factory 200s the best - also 39.0 gr of 4064 and a 200 gr.

I never use brushes - just solvent and patches - so far mine has not leaded. I shoot jacketed through it also. Probably helps take any lead out.

BUY IT !

Great stuff!

Very nice!

On the 35 Rem. - I like 39.0 gr of 4064 with a 200 gr bullet.

It works great in my 45-70 for the 350 gr loads.

Sold a Dakota 270 to come up with $2500 on short notice to buy my wife a car she wanted from a family member at a very good price. Never regretted it.

Throw them all in jail and leave them there and this was a hate crime on their part. The whole hate crime concept should be dropped - it has made things worse. Jesse and Al are opportunists with a cottage industry based on this sort of race baiting - they are no more "ministers" than Mr Ed...

Gotta love the dems that make the laws.

A teacher in Lancaster said - grandmothers in Compton who need protection can't have it but Diane Fienstein can have a guard with a semi automatic. Blatantly RACIST !!!!!!!!!!!

The US should invade San Fran and take it back.

Nice picture, technology has improved in the sticks of Louisianna since I was at Ft. Polk in 71.

Speedy recovery !!!

Try to hold yourself back on this one.

Thanks Kirk, loved the top one.

It is largely a matter of taste except for the scope issue on the Marlins and the avilablilty of Nate Kiowa Jones on the Rossis.

Welcome to the fold. On a 54 manufacture there are two holes spaced at what looks to be 1 1/8" with the rear most 3/8" forward of the back of the tang. Indeed these are behind the scope holes. I will we on the lookout for you.

Guaranteed you won't regret it !!!

Well then, let the games begin !!!!!!!!!!!!

Very nice shooting - keep that one.

Both great cartiridges. .257 - 39.0 gr 4064, 100 gr. Sierra or other approx. 3000 fps. 22" barrel 7-08 - 120 gr Sierra, 47.0 gr of H380 2850 fps - 130 gr. and 46.0 gr 2760 fps - 140 gr., 46.0 gr., 2650 fps all very accurate in a 20" barrel. Model 7 .257 a little flatter, 7-08 more flexible.

New Pig, what did you do at China Lake - had one day of hunting up there where we got Chukar, Quail, and duck in the same day. Glad to see you made the leap over, Actually for me: unscoped, .22, 357, 45 Colt, 30-30, 444 - pretty much covers the range. scoped, 25-35, .243, .250, .300 Sav, .308, 30-30...

Those are great guns and a very interesting caliber.

Well lastmo, on the handiness issue, I have carried scoped bolts for the most part so any lever seems handy. I'll have to try your way and pick the spots I hunt. Thing is out here it can be close or far. I agree with you on the rain etc

Nice work.

Anyone who doesn't see that is dumber than dirt.

Because - you can see the target better.

Cool

That is a good one!!
