    New Rifle-First Groups-Not Good

    I'd certainly try it on sandbags and no bipod first. Certain bipod/rifle combos can be jumpy on such a hard surface. But I'd also try other ammo too, often the middle of the road ammo shoots best when I use factory ammo. Hornady precision has worked well in several rifles. You just never know...

    Rucking weight?

    I would venture to say that rucking weight should or can be tied to your actual strength numbers also. If your able to squat and deadlift in the 400+# range, your core, hips and legs especially posterior chain will handle more weight over longer times with less problems. Also , bodyweight...

    300 PRC pick my bullet

    Definitely not 215 berger😉. They are hard enough to find sometimes tho I'm good for now. Seriously, they've been great for me. Stuff just gets dead when hit , zero drama. Accurate and consistent.

    Any New ideas for backpacking food/snacks?

    Good , quality butter on chips after have the jerky, cheese, fruit whatever. Used Amish butter roll mostly. Really pads the calories. The butter hits the spot in the hills.

    What is your go-to ready-to-eat food in the field?

    I think my favorite lunch on any day but especially a cold one is the Peak biscuits n gravy. I don't backpack too much but Tillamook sharp cheddar squares and a meat stick of some sort, and a pro bar makes a good snack.

    Hammocks in the back country

    If you like em for comfort, great! I sleep very well in my warbonnet and I can generally NEVER sleep on my back on the ground or in bed. But I sleep great on my back hanging there. BUT, as said above, you can get a lighter total weight with a ground set up. Hammock, tarp, all the cordage...

    Best .223 bullet for deer

    There is a whole entire link to that thread a few posts up. If that's not enough real life experience with 223 and game killing I dunno what is👍🏼

    Kowa's new 66mm with Fluorite is finally here!

    Well...I'll just keep stuffing the big 88 in my pack for everything at this point but this is very neat! I need to borrow my buddies swaro 55 for a weekend, see what I think. Then I'll check back in on this thread ...to see how bad I hate keeping my money around.

    Swfa zero stop shims ?

    Many people just throw a wrap or two of electrical tape around it once your zeroed. I would like a stop on the elevation turret. The turrets have never moved on me while hunting.

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

    Was this Tyler Freel where he hit it with 3 shots at 10 yards from a tree stand maybe, in seconds? Said it was over and bear dead in 7 seconds on his video he happened to have running. He hit well for sure and quickly. Used a partition I think. It made it get dead af as one would expect.

    Barrel too Hot?

    Yeah I'd say it sure shouldn't be heat. That's no pencil barrel. #4 is fairly heavy and brux is quality. I'd not be afraid to try another powder or bullet. At least have another test set to try when you head out. Ooops forgot those aren't loaded by you.

    Speed goats vs match bullets.

    Cow elk at 500 and nice pronghorn at 380. Same ole 215 berger, mv 2930 , 300 PRC , a bit behind the crease. Bang flop on PH, zero meat damage with that shot. Cow, same spot, ran 40 yards downhill and plowed a furrow in the snow. Good and boring. Maybe it's not a match bullet. Maybe it's a death...
