    Talley Rings

    I have the medium height 1” lightweight extended to fit a Weatherby Vanguard but they are sitting on my garage shelf since I changed mounts.

    Talley Rings

    I liked and wanted to use the Talley rings, but I went with a small and light weight scope. The Talley’s did not give me enough room to set eye relief. I ended up going with a pic rail and Vortex rings.

    Havak Element vs PH2 Recoil

    I was looking at 6.5prc barrel lengths vs 300 WinMag. I am still looking at other brands/models. Ideally, I would like to try a 6.5 pound gun.

    Havak Element vs PH2 Recoil

    Looking at getting a 300 WinMag in either a PH2 or an Element. Leaning towards the Element, but recoil may be an issue with a 6 pound gun shooting a 300 WinMag. I’ve shot a 300 for many years, but they are all heavier guns in the 8 pound range. I want a lighter gun this time, but I’m not sure...

    Pheasant Recommendation

    Yes. He only takes a few groups a year and the groups always get to book him the next year.

    2023 M2 / Montefeltro / Affinity

    I did pattern them. That’s when I realized the low rib was really the issue. The Montefeltro (at least in 2022) did not come with shims. I could not get the stock dropped enough. The M2 shoots where I aim. No adjustments needed since it has the high rib. Side note…I do not shoot factory chokes...

    2023 M2 / Montefeltro / Affinity

    I bought a Montefeltro in 2022. Couldn’t hit anything with that low rib. Sold it and bought a new M2 in November. I am extremely happy with the M2. Both were 26” 12 gauge.

    Pheasant Recommendation

    We use one in the Mitchell, SD area, but he stays booked a few years in advance. Southeastern area of South Dakota is hard to beat for pheasants. Lots of guides there.

    How many days a year do you hunt?

    I don’t hunt as much as I used to since I quit duck hunting. Deer and pheasant is all I chase now and those days don’t add up to as much time hunting as I have had in the past.

    130’s in a 6.5prc?

    My local BassPro has kept H1000 in stock. They had 9 containers Tuesday.

    130’s in a 6.5prc?

    I think those will be my next order. I have not been able to my hands on any RL25 or 26. I can find plenty of H1000. I’ve always used RL powders but I’m being forced to find alternatives.

    I just ordered some 129 ABLR.
