Kevin, I'll get down there hopefully next week. Reviewed my map and have marked a lot of spots based on the info online. I think actually looking at their maps would be better though. Have about 70...
My 19 yr old drew an archery ram tag for S9. I just drew cow moose on an RFW hunt. Looks like I need to start working out harder. Any info on sheep in Sangre de Cristos is appreciated. 19 years old,...
Looks like the whole process is simply more leftist incrementalism. For example, I hear folks talk about how horrible a wealth tax would, how we should only be taxed on income. We all thought Cyprus...
Be careful there as I think those were 160s. Don't want you running a 160 on top of a 140 powder charge. I just bought some 140s to try out this winter so pretty sure those are the 160s you have.
Interesting bullet I tried in my daughter's 260 was the 140 woodleigh. Might want to take a look at those for that rig unless uber long range is what you are after. I think they would do really well...
Smoke, Good luck on the hunt draws, you really need tags to go with all those great rifles. 8.5 twist?
Just got applications in for sheep for my son and I. We both have a few points so one of these years a bighorn hunt will happen again. Last time was 2000 and I got an 8.5 year old ram. Quite the...
Good long life for her. Tough losing those dogs.
My favorite elk rig has been a T/C Renegade running Triple 7. Killed most with a 370 maxiball. It is a 50 cal and I used it with a 410 grain Hornady last fall and 85 grains of Triple 7 to kill my...
My question is where are these online poll voters when real elections are taking place?
Jim, That is exactly how I do it, just use a crimp die. Really easy to put a light crimp on them and every group out of my Whitworth during load development has been under 1.25 with most under an...
The impacts of these bills will be far reaching. My family will have to strongly consider relocating at some point as a result of this. Very sad day for this state. Plus giving illegal immigrants in...
Zane, Did you measure from the end of barrel to the lug, or to the gas ejection port on side? Might be a little longer than you think. That said, I'd restock it, replace trigger, and see how it...
Sounds like it needs a new barrel. I'd do another 7mm Rem or 300 Winchester. If you are a handloader, I actually like a 308 Norma Magnum or 30338 Winchester. Or if you are not really a rifle loony,...
I must be cheap cause I'd happily use the 30" full choke you have. Good luck and hunt safe.
How much are you wanting to spend again?
Nice lead. Thank you
Ermine, Saw a few of your pics from this fall and have to say I liked these the most. Well done. Glad your dad's gun got it done again and know he was watching.
Let's see 7.5 months till archery sheep, need to get lucky on that tag this year. 8 months for rifle bear, 8.5 months for blackpowder cow moose, 9 months to rifle buck antelope, 9.5 months till my...
With H4350, WLR primers and most bullets from 165 to 180, I have had a hard time not finding a good load.
Interesting problem. I have that exact rifle and just got done shooting some 270 grain Hornadys in it. They were crimped in and I had no issues. Next up some Barnes 270s and again with the crimping,...
Started years ago shooting a compound right handed. Then switched to a lefthanded compound 2 years ago. Then got a lefthanded Toelke whip last year. If I had to hunt tomorrow I'd take the Mathews...
Can't find my old link, however if you have a dremel tool, rounding the edges of the feed lips on the magazine will do wonders. My son's rig was doing same and friend suggested merely rounding down...
Wow, I need to google that. Seriously high output. I am setup for reasonable quality high power rifle ammo, but those kinds of numbers would take me forever.
