Greetings from South Dakota. Nice to be here.

Just started into the addiction called handloading. Really enjoying the new hobby. Hope to learn a few things while on the forum.

Welcome to Gunloads.

What do you shoot?

airborne556762 · 08-19-2009, 08:55 PM

Here is a list of what I shoot:

300 WSM, 280, 22-250, 223, 30-30, and 17 HMR

The 300 WSM is my favorite by far, I have taken Alaskan moose, whitetails, mule deer, and pronghorns with it. As a long range rifle its right on the money for me.

Welcome aboard airborne you should enjoy the forum there is a lot of really good reloaders here to gain knowledge from. With all the years experience out there, the fact that they haven't blown themselves up shows they must know something

and they are willing to share this with us. ( The not blowing ourselves up part!!)

Howdy Airborne - Marine ('61 - 65) myself, but we all get along here!

I'm shooting the 300 WM and a Colt AR (1:7 twist) so we have a little in common. Oh, yeah, I was born in Yankton and my SIL is from a little North of there. Where are you living now?

Help me if I'm wrong, but I think your 300 WSM is at max with the 180 grain, but that's what I shoot in my 300 WM, so maybe we can talk about similarities, and differences.
