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

    There’s probably a more scientific explanation, but usually soft tissue and organs cause rapid expansion of a bullet. I’ve had the same experience of hitting bone on entry and it seems to penetrate farther. Guessing it’s bc the bullet doesn’t expand the same as it would in soft tissue.

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

    He said he read a lot of the forum, but I guess he didn't look at any of the hundreds of photos of dead animals. I don't need any additional competition for 77gr TMK's so I hope lots of people agree with him...

    X-bolt or T3X?

    All my X-Bolts are walnut stocked Hunter models. I don’t need anything extra either. What like about the 2 is the anti binding features of the action. Just molded delrin pieces that will likely break at some point, but they I do like that feature. I do like my A-Bolts. The only one that I...

    X-bolt or T3X?

    Browning needs a .223 in the X-Bolt 2...I still don't like their factory stock, but this would be intriguing.

    A Giraffe with a 6UM

    I’m not convinced. I think Ryan should take me in person to shoot a giraffe with his 6UM so I can make my own conclusion.

    6BR tikka mags

    This thread is not helping me be content with my T3X .243. I always wanted to build a 6BR, but feeding has been the hold up.

    New rimfire cartridge 21 Sharp

    I wonder if Winchester has ever pulled a 17 MKII bullet out of a casing… I don’t see this getting much traction. Especially in with their Wildcat rifles.

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

    Black Sabre is the 75gr A VMAX. I think there was mention of it somewhere before on here. It upsets quickly. EDIT: In my head was thinking VMax when I read AMAX...sorry. Multi-tasking is a challenge....

    WTT The Boot Trading thread

    Crispi Guide GTX Insulated size 8.5 EE. They are in really good shape, minus on small cut in the leather in the inside of the right boot. These were used for stand hunting whitetails, so not many miles on them. They are too stiff for me, so I don't wear them often. $200 TYD OBO. Would trade for...

    All you big game hunters need to read this article…your experience killing hundreds of animals with the 77 TMK must all be a fluke. https://www.fieldandstream.com/hunting/best-rifle-cartridges-for-elk-hunting

    How many hunting rifles do you have?

    No…but I figure if I tell her enough she might believe me. Makes me feel better about it anyway lol.

    How many hunting rifles do you have?

    I wanted to be a one rifle man, but things never go as intended. I tell my wife they’re investments…

    Federal Fusion 62gr through the shoulder has put a lot of deer in my freezer. I would assume the 73gr ELDM will do the same, but have not used it yet.

    Squirrel Pistol

    Could also look at TC Contender with a 4-6” barrel. Other than that, a Ruger Single Six of some flavor.
