    KRG Echo - Sporterish version of bravo for tikkas

    I’ve had that thumb screw catch on Bino harness/range finder cord at a very inopportune time, happy to have just the screw. I suppose I could need the bolt out for some reason and I’d be singing the opposite tune.

    6.5mm Projectile for Moose

    Meaning they don't like the TMKs? Or just they aren't impressed by much, but have something to say about your wound channels?

    Am I correct in thinking half power, ie 11 on a 5.5 -22, that I could double the values of the reticle?

    The Shoot2hunt Podcast

    Making me regret not choosing the master sporter for .308 over .22 Creed. Oh well, Tikka/KRG version will work. I don’t see a consistent scope choice. Thinking mine will end up w an inherited NXS, leave at half power (double the reticle values?) and try to live w the 2nd focal plane.

    .223 for bear, mountain goat, deer, elk, and moose.

    I had to call, had a useless birthday month code. The gals in CS were very helpful

    Would you buy this scope?

    It is in fact entertaining and enlightening.

    6.5mm bullet for Elk

    Will do. I had one combination of bullet/powder that almost made disregard the 130. Changes powder and it’s my best performer. If you roll your own, worth trying a few combos.

    6.5mm bullet for Elk

    One small bear, around 50 yards, neck/spine shot, coke can size tissue damage all the way through. Let a friend use the rifle on a doe hunt… 100 yards two in the guts, one in the chest, liquified a good bit of the guts. Chest wound was a 130tmk and another bullet, not sure which was which. No...

    6.5mm bullet for Elk

    From my reading on here and personal correlating results I’d have no prob using the 143eldx, 140eldm, 147eldm, or 130TMK. The 143 treated me well last year, I chopped the barrel and 130TMKs line up better w quick drops now. If it’s not a precision issue, and you use FFP mil scopes, I’d go w...

    6.5 Creedmoor/260 for Deer, Elk, and whatever else.....

    As I understand it you won't be able to tell much/if any difference. I shot 143s for elk last year, the 130 TMK groups better for me and will be the go to for current barrel. Rumor is TMKs are a little more forgiving around 1800fps bottom limit.

    6.5mm Projectile for Moose

    My own bear testing showed the 130 puts a pop can size hole through bear necks at short range and when you allow friends to shoot deer with it they can make a helluva mess. Hopefully some elk data in a little over a week.

    .223 if you don't have one, it allows you to focus on the individual mechanics of learning the process and decreases a confounding factor. Plus, pretty much can't wear the barrel out.

    I think the problem is there is an implication the a mtn lion hunting ban will have any effect over all or be a solution on CWD. CPW believes current management practices provide the most stable lion populations. Also, targeted removal of male lions may actually increase over all lion numbers.

    Neg. Sen Dylan Roberts did respond. He has addressed the issue w DNR leadership and is hopeful for for a public response from them. Also said he will bring it up in Jan at the annual accountability hearing.
