    25/06 vs 7mm08

    7-08 has heavier bullets with better bc, also comes in true short actions. 25-06 has lighter bullets that shoot a good bit flatter within reasonable ranges, eventually the 7mm will catch up but I would imagine that's around the 500 yard line though. Both good calibers it really depends what your...

    Open sights

    I bought a new to me Remington model 7 in 7-08, I already have one that's scoped. I'm going to leave the new one with open sights. My buddy has an m1a socom with a ghost ring type sight on it. does anyone know where I could find something similar for my model 7? I'm hoping for a thin fiber...

    270WSM for mule deer

    Shot my muley at 355 last year, he turned just as I squeezed off which ended up with him hard quartering away (not a shot I would usually take) and my 140 accubond entered behind the furthest back rib and came out in front of the opposite side shoulder. I would expect the partition to do just...

    Mcmillan edge weight

    Thinking of putting one of these stocks on my rem model 7, it currently has a youth model wood stock on it with the Schnabel for end. Anyone ever bought a mcedge? Or know what real world weights they are? It would be in the same lop as the youth stock.

    Late season outer shell

    This is to Matt, I'm usually on the move, spot and stalk or still hunting. I'm a terrible stand hunter, always have to know what's over the next rise. That's why it needs to be quiet, does the sitka cold front make that swish sound when you move? The sitka at half off is the same price as the...

    Late season outer shell

    I'm looking for a late season shell (top and bottom) that is quiet, wind resistant at the very least, and waterproof or at least water resistant. I have the kuiu guide gear and I found it lacking in wind and snow. I can get half off on sitka and first lite but don't know much about them. Any...

    grouping?

    Installed a new timney, it is soooo much better and I switched back to the better ammo. The problem I am having is a little bit of horizontal stringing. The funny thing is, my dad's rifle is a kimber something or other with the wood stock, and he had vertical stringing. What is the typical...

    I finally did it!!

    I understand the hardships of doing it with a compound, doing it traditional is something I can't even comprehend. Congrats on the tag filled.

    Id unit 1 muleys

    People are very tight lipped about this unit and hunt but I know there are some on this site that know a lot about the unit. My biggest problem is I came across a nice whitetail that I didn't pass up. This year I will be stronger. On that note I haven't seen Coop post in a while. Maybe...

    Id unit 1 muleys

    Just wondering if anyone has ever had any success in the unit. Hunted it last year in the largest and probably most well know drainage in the unit. I found mule deer high and low with no consistency whatsoever. Is that just the MO of the unit or am I just way off base on my approach? Should I...
