Taxidermy
Getting on in years is something we all face. For me the process is involving downsizing living space which in turn will mean disposing of a half dozen sizeable mounts. I found one business in...

Primers
Perusing suppliers for any available primers I see several new names. Apparently there are some start up manufactures entering the market. Anybody have any experience with these products?

22-250 Load Suggestions

Powder Opinions
I have been very satisfied with Western Powders TAC. I use it in .222 Rem, .223 Rem and .204 Ruger. It meters well, doesn't seem temperature sensitive, and gives good accuracy in all my rifles.

I tried the Varmint Grenades in both the .222 and .223 Rem and had accuracy issues. The NTX bullets have worked well for me.
