    Name this rifle!

    Could probably do something with Big Sky. That way, you could come to R.S. and talk about your B.S. T.M.K (The Montana King)

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

    Have read this thread probably 5x. First post. Average size KS nanny with an AAC 77 TMK. Unsure of twist rate but 10 rounds is minute of chew can at 100. No clue on muzzle velocity, shot was about 45/50 yards. Which was about as far as she ran too. No blood trail to speak of but low/gut...

    Talk to me about your archery training schedule

    Same course as @LFC911 spring and fall. Best thing i've done outside of that is consistent practice under 7 yrds every other day (down the hall way / now garage). When applicable, stretch out 80+ Breakdown of practice would probably look something like: 75% under 20, 10% 20-60; 15% 60+

    An 8 pointer or a 7?

    8 minus 1 pointer

    Best mechanical broad head for big game?

    To cover those bases, probably G5 Deadmeat V2. 3 blade, 1.5", rear deploying.

    Lever gun LPVO

    I am far from being serious about rifles so take that into account. Grabbed 2 Bushnell 1.5-4.5x32 (they're marketed as 1.5-4x32) for a 30/30 and an AR. Glass appears pretty clear to me and they've done what I've needed them to (without woods use yet). Under $100 if you look around. Lever gun...

    Nexxus arrows

    I've always read it as "If I Remember Correctly." If that's wrong, we're both in for a lesson lol

    Nexxus arrows

Hoyt Spyder Turbo, 72#, 29" draw, 274 fps (IIRC) 495 grain TAW with 100 grain point Intentionally shot an iron buck target in the head @ 30-ish yards, arrow bounced back a bit. Component...

    ML 101

    I'll shoot you a text. Have a modern inline and a sidelock. Out of my CVA, two 50 grain pellets with a 270 grain federal bor lock (?) has been pretty darn impressive Sidelock: 80 or 85 grains measured with a patched round ball (can't remember size of patch)

    Low Poundage and BH

    My Fiancé shot her first ever deer with a compound last fall (26" / 43lbs / 375 TAW / 205fps - under 15 yard shot). With her set up, I thought a Killer Bee from Magnus would be a good idea. It definitely worked with a well placed shot, but I can't stop thinking about outcome if shot placement...

    Ford 5.0L V8 vs EcoBoost: High mileage experience?

    2013 3.5 with 243k. Not original owner. Bought with 96k on it. Went through and did the mileage list on it between 120k-150k. Currently going through it again and heavily consider trading it in. Had some work done last spring and now burns a little oil. Not bad, just something to keep an eye...
