Did not think about it. Wanted to enjoy the moment.

Took the Sako 75 Varmint into Pacnor last week. Ordered the super match stainless with flutes. Chambered. Really nice people. Took my brother and I on an hour tour of the shop. We had a ball.

Males are up in the afternoon on a good day here in Idaho. All rounds loaded. Bag packed. Rifles ready. Winter sucks.

I have been working with 1650 or so WW cases for a couple of years. All fully prepped including neck turning. I have been annealing after the second firing just to be safe (I sort of like to do it. The colors are so beautiful.) and have had no split necks. I just finished loading a little over 1000 ...

We now have hex head action screws for the CZ 527 and striker springs for the same and a full line of Anschutz action screws, striker springs and trigger springs. Check it out.

Hope you are all well. I have been real busy, but read here as always. Just little time to post.

Ray, How tight are the action screws? CZ bolts are rough by nature as Rick says, but most guys that have taken the time to mess with the action tension have found that between 20 and 30 inch pounds yield the best accuracy. Most of them come from the factory with the action screws installed way too t...

Just an update on J&P Custom Products. We now have replacement hex head screws for the Sako 75, Sako 85 and Tikka T-3 model rifles. CZ 527 hex head screws coming soon.

I have been loading 27.0 for several years now with great results. 3670 fps is the average. Not a barn burner, but easy on the barrel and very accurate through my Sako.

Glad you are back inside the wire Rick.

I have been busy with other things and did not see this until this morning. Sure hope you are doing well Rick. You are in my thoughts.

With Brian’s permission I am announcing the opening of our web site with some shooting related parts. A lot of our stuff is for shotguns. We have some very nice hex head action screws for Cz and Sako rimfires that we have produced ourselves as well as striker springs for all of them. All our ...

I have read a great deal on the velocity subject, mostly on Benchrest.com on the rimfire forum. As a .22 projectile falls below the speed of sound the shock wave it creates as it passes through the air changes and causes the projectile to become unstable and yaw. It is great to be interested in thes...

Squatting Wolf, I shoot a lot of squirrels with a .22 and have found the WW Power Points work the best for me. I use the 40 gr. Velocity over my chrono through a Lilja barrel is 1280fps. Excellent killing power on not only the rather small ground squirrel we have here in Idaho, but also on the large...

I have not shot the .204 "Shots" yet. I have had a ladder load of them ready for 4 months but have not been able to get out on a good bench day for that long. The weather has been miserable here this late winter and spring. I was hoping for a -200 yard inexpensive bullet, but the jury is s...

I wonder if those are a .17 cal version of the Dog Town, or as they are known in Australia, "Shots"? Sure looks like it.
