Will load some up in a 7.5 twist 240 Wby tonight and hope to put a few down range in the morning using a 108 ELDM load I’m dialing in. It won‘t be 16 degrees like yesterday morning in NW Florida but expect it will be in the 40’s.
I’m still deer hunting in lower Alabama until 10 Feb, if the...
No complaints on the action at all as it’s very smooth feeding. Added the Peak 44 20 MOA rail and the fit was absolutely square, didn’t even bed the rail. Liking this action better than my Christensen Arms.
Stock is ok and is a close fit around the barrel channel, adjustable cheek piece is a...
I’ll give these a go in a 240 Wby 7.5 twist. Have an easy shooting load with 108 ELDMs @ 3150, expect these may end up a bit faster but will let the groups dictate final velocity.
The winter kill was bad in 2G1, probably over 30%. My hunting partner was hauling dead deer out of the yard that had bedded and never got up again. The trail cam pics this year are way down on the numbers compared to previous years and we haven't gotten an old bruiser on camera yet. The old...
Let us know what Weatherby says about the rifle, working with a 2.0 steel 280AI with 150gr Sierra Gamechangers and RL16 but its not showing much promise. Going to load up some 150 Scenars and H4831, if it doesn't group those well then something is off. Trijicon 3-18x44 FFP scope, TSP rings on...
Great write-up Annabelle! Congratulations on persevering through the toughest of times, memories made with your Dad, great friends (including the goats) and a great trophy!
Well done!
Good info on the IMR4350 with 140’s.
I’ve had good accuracy with RL17 with 145gr Speer Grand Slams but my initial tests with 140gr Partitions isn’t as good. I may try IMR 4350 if I can locate some, only have H4350.
if you change your mind, I’ve had good luck with the Fenwick HMG travel rods with two different tip sections. If you want to take a hands on look, let me know as we are both in NW Florida.
If these stocks don’t have the aluminum bedding block, is the fore end stiff enough to handle a bipod without the stock flexing into the barrel?
Really want one of these in 6.5x284 on the long action as I’m already loading for a Savage LRH, I may call and see if they would make one up. The LRH...
I’m in for at least one.
If you can perfect an extended OAL 223 mag I imagine you could sell a bunch. If this has already been done, someone please point me in the right direction.
I have been using the FL North Branch pants for the past two seasons, took a deer last week while wearing them from a treestand on a very quiet evening. I am careful in my movements with them as they are a bit noisy. In regards to washing and quieting down, hard to really tell without a new...
The Woodbury and North Branch were designed for different purposes. The North Branch is a non-insulated soft shell designed for breathability and seems very durable busting through brush. Do a search on my name and you can find some of my thoughts on the North Branch and a bunch of other First...
