I know a lot of people who get MLD tags in Texas and need to shoot lots of WT doe, and they try to get it done as quick as possible. Most all of them are using small calibers and neck shots to get their 30+ doe shot and recovered in as little time as they can.
Don't let these water carrying RS worshipers gaslight you. You are correct. Can't dispute the evidence, pictures, kills, etc that smaller than traditional calibers can work well on big game. BUT you're absolutely correct. There is an underlying sentiment from these talking heads and their cult...
As close to NIB as it gets. Got them partially to try out and partially for my dad to use on a 1st season CO hunt. Hunt was a big bust lol, so these saw almost no field use. Really great bino's, but my needs are really more competition based so moving on to try either the sigs or the Vectronix...
... we were talking about high angle ballistic solutions. And you said you ranged a rock that was 1080 with a corrected yardage of 1075??? So a completely flat shot. A free phone app can figure that solution. The lowest end, sub $300 range finder can range that.
What you described has...
SMH the parrots are out in full force. None of this explains why it's only on the first shot of the day. Unless it's the gremlins that come out over night and readjust everything so it shoots 6" high first thing, then is perfectly on even after completely cooling.
Weak rear support has nothing...
I would be highly skeptical it was wind based on your miss on the second buck.
As fancy and high tech as these new range finders are they all handle angle comp differently and none of them especially well. It’s an exceedingly difficult calculation to get right. You really have to practice high...
Gooooootcha. Sorry. That’s the info that makes this thread make sense. It’s also the reason lots of people recommend against BDC reticles or turrets.
What scope are you running? You should be able to find info online that will tell you the actual mil or moa measurement on that reticle, not...
wtf are you talking about. Don’t change shit. Keep your zero where it is. Don’t dick with atmospheric zero. True your data up however you choose on your home range. When you get to where you’re going to hunt put in your new atmospherics and dial what it tells you. If you run a hard card, make it...
Sure... you don't need as much elevation adjustment at altitude. You're ballistic calculator will tell you exactly how much. Also your windage holds will change.
Larkspur is new this year, but pretty sure I've seen the venue. Should be awesome.
I've shot Dorgan's match the last 2 years and it's been vastly different each time, looks like it may be in a new location again this year.
Think Laramie was new for the 2023 Finale so only 2 matches of that...
No actual insight, but they have to have both a venue and match director that are willing and capable to host. I'm guessing with all the additions that if those two necessities were met then there would've been one in NV.
