My biggest whitetail buck to date!! 77 grain TMK @ 100 yards…. 16” AR 15 2600 at the muzzle. Lungs were jelly… I’ll have more info when I get him skinned out. Thanks for the inspiration!! It was a bit of rodeo of a season for me but this is a great capper!! A sneaky mature 8 point… I’m...
I'm blessed as well to be cross eye dominant. Left eyed ** and eared BTW** /right handed. Learned to shoot lefty as a youngster. Another side benefit was my dominant arm steadying the weapon, which when I was younger helped out more than most folks realize with off hand shooting.
If you want to interrogate me, you don't need a blow torch and pliers... Just tie me to a chair and play anything from Luke Bryan...I personally CANNOT stand his voice... He sounds like Kermit the Frog with a hernia. And when you throw in really well thought out lyrics about shakin' it for...
I hear ya there!! That 4350 is scarce enough these days. But I'll share this. I made a mistake with my .308 chasing a certain velocity and ended up wasting a LOT of components instead of just listening to the gun. There was nothing wrong with the gun. It would group fine with slower combos...
That 4350 might be just a hair slow for those bullets in your gun. The bearing surface may call for just a bit more pop. I'll second trying the 4064 with the partitions and see what happens. But what was the factory ammo you were shooting?
There's a lot of missing info, like your barrel length, profile and twist rate, But the short answer is Yes. Different powders can have a PROFOUND impact on grouping due to bullet construction/type and burn rate. And from the load data I've looked at 3000fps was pretty close to max velocity...
I've seen those black node like bumps in Missouri whitetails as well. No Idea what they are. And definitely don't think they are clotted blood. The feel way too firm for that. Some kind of cyst or parasite I would imagine.
BCM makes a GREAT rifle. The only issue I have with Daniel Defense is that some of their parts are proprietary. With BCM all standard AR parts work!! Their quality control borders on OCD. I've got the 16" mod 0 upper on a bushmaster lower and couldn't be happier!!
Our hunt out of the Dixie ID area was postponed til next year by the outfitter due to the fires. According to him, even if the parks opened back up it didn't give him enough time to clear trails and scout to get us the hunt we were paying for. I gotta respect that! It sucks but we really...
No matter what method you use, keep your scent off the traps/bait placement. We always wear latex gloves anytime we are targeting rats/mice. Rats are extremely smart and cagey, not to mention an other-worldly sense of smell. You might try baiting traps but don't set them to trigger until they...
