    Critique my 300 Win Mag build

    The ammunition question is easily solved buying a year or twos worth at a time. The PRC’s are here to stay. Save your brass, you will probably reload someday if you get into the long range thing even a little bit. The old “what if I bring everything but forget ammunition and need to buy some at...

    Oh no doubt. Large rifle are a rotten pain in the ass to find, small rifle primers are everywhere. I haven’t messed around with any of the SRP creedmoor brass, but from what I’ve seen it ignites just as well as LRP as long as you have a primer on the hot side and a good case fill.

    Magnum primers? The data (at least most of it) I have seen for the PRC shows a federal 210 primer which I thought was a regular large rifle?

    They shoot the same projectiles so no difference there, same primers as well, regular large rifle. The big difference really between the two is powder and brass. There is a lot more 6.5 creed brass out there and being produced but it really doesn’t matter. Buy a couple hundred quality pieces...

    The creed is the super popular one that you can find factory ammo at Walmart for. The PRC burns more powder, recoils harder, and for sake of simplicity essentially throws the same projectiles a couple-few hundred FPS faster. The PRC is not nearly as popular and you won’t likely find a box of...

    Long Draw Arrow Build...Off the charts! Literally

    Bow will always shoot the best turned all the way up. That much better that you even notice with your level of experience? Probably not. 60 pounds will kill anything in North America, but 70 or 75 will shoot much flatter, and will obviously penetrate more given a similar arrow weight. Going...

    Long Draw Arrow Build...Off the charts! Literally

    I redact my statement in regards to spine seeming a little light. At 60 pounds you’re very likely fine. Run it, or chop them and run it. Either way you will likely be in the chips. Have fun!

    Long Draw Arrow Build...Off the charts! Literally

    Assuming everything checks out in regards to spine, you’re Gucci. Nothing wrong with what you posted. It seems a little light on the spine to me, but what do I know. As others have said, you can chop those arrows a couple inches and that will stiffen you up and get you closer to ideal in regards...

    How did the 6.5 Creedmoor lose steam so quickly?

    There’s probably that one guy in town that gutshot 3 deer with a mono singing to high heaven that a .264 bullet won’t kill a deer.

    How did the 6.5 Creedmoor lose steam so quickly?

    I think it’s just as popular as ever. For the last 10-12 years the “older crowd” that already had more rifles than they needed were hearing about the “magic” and buying one. That was the big explosion in sales and popularity. Most rifle shooters in America bought one in the last 10 years. Now...

    So sorry OP.

    Technology & efficacy = lost opportunity?

    I think the easy button in regards to regulation is to cut rifle and muzzleloader tags, and give more to Archery hunters that see much less success. In fact, I wish my state would do this. That of course works until you have too many archery hunters and they’re actually making a dent In herd...

    East Coast Trip in May to DC/NJ - What should we do?

    My platoon took a bus up from Lejeune in 2014 and toured the Marine Corps museum in Quantico. Super super cool. Worth the trip, but maybe I’m just biased.

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

    I know the twist calculator exists and I’ve used it but… What am I risking shooting the 77’s in a 1:9 as long as they shoot at the distances I would ever reasonably shoot something at? the only 223 I have/had was AR’s and I wanted to load them longer than 2.26, my dad (FFL) had a savage model...

    Sierra 77 Grain TMK 5.56 Load Data

    Anyone have any experience using IMR 4064 and loading to 2.26? I’m putting a bolt gun together eventually, but for now have a few AR’s that shoot plenty good enough for the distances I would be hunting with them. As for the powder, I had it laying around and with the price of components...

    Post up a picture your hunting bow!

    V3X 33, 30” DL threw strings on it after the first year and twisted the cables to get 80 lbs out of it. Shoots great, really happy with the bow. Kinda eying a 29 to compliment it for the treestand/saddle work but for now this is the only pony in the stable (aside from the recurve I hardly ever...

    How does your job prepare you for the mountain?

    It doesn’t really, and IMO most jobs dont really, either. Unless you’re running around in the woods climbing and descending with a pack on. Sure, a guy climbing ladders all day every day probably has stronger quads than the guy sitting at the desk, but if the guy at the desk puts real effort...
