    WTS Remington 700 50 cal Muzzleloader. 209 ignition. open sights capable. Mid 90's.

    My Dad bought this in the mid 90's before he passed. I shot this some years back with pretty poor quality bullets and it grouped fine- 1.5 @ 80 yrd if I remember. I added the .209 kit. I probably have the other kits somewhere if you're interested. Comes with mounts. Without scope: $560 With...

    can we start an email club for this? The "Hey, Tikka's are less than $650 right now!!!! Frick!" email club? Can we start a thread that people only announce this in that we can get an email alert for? That would be the dope.

    .223, 6mm, and 6.5 failures on big game

    Agree. I have loaded down to 125 gr bullets in the 06, and at woods distances, they are more than adequate. Running slow, they do well too. I have loaded them for target loads for my wife and kids. But they probably hunt just fine. I broke down the 2 I got this AM, and there was more damage...

    .223, 6mm, and 6.5 failures on big game

    No. That is the right question, I agree. Today was Wisconsin opener and I shot 2 does. Both were quick kills with the 06. But I was really concentrating on not flinching. That is the hardest part of shooting for me. I suspect both would have been identical with a 243 or even a 223. However, I...

    .223, 6mm, and 6.5 failures on big game

    I feel like you may not have tracked deer in Florida swamps after dark, or in Wisconsin buckthorn. Sure, most of the time it is easy, but sometimes it ain't. I've had heart hit deer go over 100yrds with full expansion bullets. I also don't think its weird to use a full expansion bullet and...

    .223, 6mm, and 6.5 failures on big game

    Yes. I shot Sierra hollow point game kings in 2005ish. 30cal in 30_06. No exit wounds. Killed a few deer, but found them eventually. Then I lost a doe after a perfect heart shot in Alabama. Saw the death kick and not a speck of blood. I switched bullets after that. However, my 06 always seems...

    .223, 6mm, and 6.5 failures on big game

    I do think demonstrating evidence of failure is harder than evidence of success. If I don't recover an animal then I can't provide evidence as to why for sure. I can thing I made a good shot, but I can't prove it was the bullet fit sure. What I can say is that my. 243 with 100gr interlocks has...

    What caused the Rokslide shift to smallest caliber and cartridges?

    Is there a range limit for Would someone advocating small caliber answer this range question?

    What caused the Rokslide shift to smallest caliber and cartridges?

    Yeah KHntr, with an 88gr bullet and AI capacity increase, it seems like that would perform as well as a .243 in 2002 at least. Were these three all 1 shot kills? And did the shots produce a bleeding exit wound? I would love to feel confident shooting a lower caliber with all it's benefits and...

    What caused the Rokslide shift to smallest caliber and cartridges?

    Hornady interlocks and ELD's in most cases I'm personally connected with. I've also seen 85gr partitions not exit on deer, even in pretty hot loads.

    What caused the Rokslide shift to smallest caliber and cartridges?

    I think the crux of it is that some of us have witnessed a significant rate of failure ourselves with lower calibers on even deer sized game. We have used quality bullets and made good shots and not gotten the performance we were looking for. Thus, others can accumulate lots of positive examples...

    What caused the Rokslide shift to smallest caliber and cartridges?

    To be clear, I did not, and wouldn't say that I think .22 caliber bullets or loads are not highly capable. Many hunters I know drop caliber over time as they hone in on better loads and grow in shooting ability over time, while getting over young, macho caliber mentalities. I think that's great...

    What caused the Rokslide shift to smallest caliber and cartridges?

    I am definitely a believer that non-magnums are very sufficient at real life ranges. Also, Europeans have been using smaller calibers for a long time- 6.5 Swedes have killed o so many mooses. However, I tend to think our grandfather's had it right minus new bullet construction. The 25-30 caliber...

    Why pay for a "custom" action?

    I don't understand this. it looks like the 24" CF Proof Elevation is a $3400 rifle itself. How did you assemble a better kit for $2450?
