    Turkey leg recipe?

    I pound and do all my turkey breast schnitzel style. Great with mashed potatoes and gravy or on a fresh sliced sourdough turkey club style. The legs and thighs I always pressure cook with some bone broth. Shredded and cut to one inch long pieces we use it for tacos, nachos or enchiladas. I've...

    WTS Ruger M77 MKII Stainless 30-06

    How did it shoot? I noticed all the ammo are half boxes. Did you try each and all shot poorly or all shot well. What is the best ammo that matched this rifle? My Ruger's always shot Hornady Interlock ammo well. Thanks!

    Nosler ABLR for Oryx

    I have a 26" on mine and my wife's is a 24". I'm sure the reloader powders will still work well but Retumbo and H1000 are probably a no-go. 7828SSC and Reloader 17 will also make good velo for you in the 160-168 grain range. You'll be down in the 2800 most likely. With 175 Berger Elite's mine...

    Nosler ABLR for Oryx

    Because every rifle is different and I don't want to be responsible for blowing up your new rifle I can't list every load I've tried and had success with in my 280s. I will tell you I use Nosler brass, standard match grade primers like CCI BR2 or Fed 210 golds, and my favorite powder is Reloader...

    Nosler ABLR for Oryx

    We've killed 13 bull elk with the 168 ABLR and 190 ABLR out of the 280 AI and 300 win mag. Shot at all angles and ranges from 126 yds to 760ish. Through shoulders, ribs, chest, and neck. Way tougher bullet than a Berger or Eld-x. They're bonded. You say 180 grain, so makes me wonder if it's a...

    6.5 Creedmoor Hornady 140 ELDM for Bull Elk

    My son and nephew both shot elk with the 143 eldx and 140 eld-m. 180 to 330 yds. 3 and 4 shots later the elk were down. We moved up to 7 mags for both young men and had one shot kills last year. 160 grain Accubonds. Have since switched the Creedmoors to 140 Accubonds as well. The LR style...

    Ramshot Magnum Data for 200Gr ELD-X .300 WM ??

    For a lot of years Nosler brass was Norma. Then I believe they purchased SSA Silver State Armory and now have that plant manufacturing their brass. At any rate it is decent brass. Little soft in the necks and primer pockets when pushed hard. If good money is spent buy Lapua, Alpha, Peterson, ADG...

    Ramshot Magnum Data for 200Gr ELD-X .300 WM ??

    I reloaded 81 grains in my Dad's 300 wm Winchester model 70. It's not the hottest or fastest but he shot a 5 shot groups you could cover with a nickel at 100 yds. Really nice shooting powder. Plain Jane WW brass and CCI 250 magnum primers. We were right above 2900 fps. 2910 rings a bell. Good luck!

    WTB . 284 accubonds 160gr

    I'm gonna go check our my coffers and see how many I have. Maybe I can part with some. Are you looking for an elk bullet? We've taken a bunch of deer with the 150 Ballistic Tip over the years if you're hunting deer and Antelope.

    WTB . 284 accubonds 160gr

    There was some on the Utah gun exchange page and of course there are 3 or 4 boxes in Gunbroker (rip off central) for $125/box.

    CA Draw Results

    Yeah I'm not too worried about it anymore. I've seen plenty of my friends draw antelope not once but twice in the 19 years I've been applying and other friends draw elk on their 2nd try. Some guys are just lucky. In California, I am not that guy. I did get a mule deer tag and antelope tag in...
