I have finally figured it out. The whole thing is a conspiracy between the state and the outdoor gear companies to sell tags, rifles, optics, ammo, backpacks and boots to idiots like me.
I would be just as effective at hunting Bigfoot as I am at Elk.
Form, in your experience, what is a go-to 308 killing bullet that is consistent (like the FGMM), typically available everywhere, and not crazily expensive?
Well, it is short and fat.
Ok, does a new factory rifle like the Tikka in my example above have the same good reamer clearances for old cartridges and new cartridges? Or does the chamber blueprint dictate a sloppy chamber/throat on old designs?
I've seen a lot of reference to "modern" cartridge and chamber/throat designs being more inherently accurate than older designs. What I'm not sure I'm understanding correctly is whether this is referring to older "sloppier" made rifles and walmart tier junk ammo vs newly manufactured rifles and...
I think these XCR2s are the best 700s Remington ever made. They are stainless with black TryNyte which is rust proof and makes the action slick like glass. The bolt cycles as good or better than my T3X Lite. I love the nice, tall iron sights. Weighs 6 lb 10oz but the squishy pad mitigates...
3 weeks in. Realized this morning that I was breathing easily while tying my boots. That's new!
I usually have had to blow all of my air out to fold over far enough to reach the laces. It was like diving to the bottom of the pool: get down there, get it done, get back up for air..
I should...
I'll also say I had done Atkins and Keto once or twice years ago and so far this is WAY easier. I think the 20g of carbs that was allowed just kept teasing and fueling the craving for more carbs. I would obsess over wanting to eat everything I couldn't.
Not on carnivore. It's like I'm aware...
I started carnivore on 7/15 so I'm just 10 days in. Down 13 pounds 289 to 276 in the first 5 days and then maybe one more pound in the second 5. My face looks different, and I can now see my whole belt buckle. I realize this was all water that my body let go of as I depleted my glycogen, so...
Sorry for the confusion, that's a reference to the Shoot2Hunt/Form Friday podcast where Form discusses the virtues of 22mag as a bear headshot tool.
No word on the weapon used in this actual case.
Anybody know anything about this one? Was the 72 year old berry picker armed with a 22 mag?
