This crazy bickering never ends!
I don’t use eldx or eldm on game , they just are to explosive imo
The old factory stuff may not be high B.C , but they didn’t have many other problems with killing medium game and having a good blood trail or DRT
I will stick with my Norma oryx, federal...
I didn’t wait, I was shooting two different guns and shot terrible with the.270
Because my eyesight couldn’t see the small target
My 4x14 scope on the .308 I could see the target better
Getting old sux
As far as no 100yard range our town went from 3000 people to 25,000 in 15 years
So when...
I get so mad with these new trucks and the ABS system when I am going good
And the computer shuts down any forward progress
Usually pull the ABS fuse when it gets serious
This is how my uncle sighted in guns when I was a kid
A hole through a hole @ 25 , my other uncle was it goes to 2 inch high @ 100
Wish I had access to a 100 , but California moved to Texas and most 100 yard ranges have closed down
I wonder if a decoy bag would work?
I wish I would have had a stronger bag to put my cheese cloth bags in when I was packing out moose and caribou meat up north
Next weekend is opening day for deer for me , I just bought a new scope 4x14x44 ( eyes are crappy) from a 2x7x33
Only gun range is 25yard , was thinking 1inch -1,25 low @ 25 would be about right for 200y zero with 130gr .270win
Any thoughts on this ( except go to a 100y range because there isn’t...
I have 3 local custom shops within driving distance ( Alamo, guns inc )
Considering the problems shipping back and forth from fierce or Christian
They are definitely out , gotta be local and easy to deal with
Good reputation/ branding for resale value if need be
Most around here use 700 action...
I shoot both 270win and .308win with 150gr Norma oryx, both have same ballistic range, and are deadly on elk , mule deer, caribou out to 300 meters
I also shoot a .375 ruger with 250gr CX ( probably not for the recoil sensitive, but I never feel it when the chips are on the table)
I shoot a Winchester 101 20ga and my buddy a beretta a400 28ga
With bismuth #2 & #4 we smoke ducks and geese probably 75% better then any type steel + you don’t need a 10 or 3 1/2 inch 12ga and suffer the consequences of recoil ( which is #1 reason for poor shooting)
My 101 is I/c & mod
I have a Remington that does that, I pulled the bolt and soaked it in diesel, then
Lubed with amsoil red gun lubricant, after the season is over might want to replace the spring if it’s not too specification same with the striker
WTW Imo hornday ammunition is junk, maybe the whitetail line is ok...
I had a outfitter tell me I had to shoot a nosler partition in my 300wm instead of my normal federal classic 180gr , I ignored that and hammered a elk & bear both DRT , he wasn’t amused after I told him my interbond bullet was a good bullet and the shot placement was the key.
I don’t like the...
Those mid Asian ibex are definitely the long distance hunters dream
Shots are about 400-800 yards average way up @14,000+ feet in altitude and it’s a huge adventure, planes, Land Cruiser, horses, feet and then reverse the process
Pack you some extra food just in case
This is a sad story of another Utah based company that is run by shady people/ guy , mulie freak , fierce firearm , christenen firearm, monster diesel, Aram von Benedikt . ect ect,
They must spend their mission planning a deviant mission in life and business .
Then are arrogant, never humble or...
