I'm looking to sell a Realtree #60 Defiant Turbo #3 cams set up at 29.5 inches (adjustable 28-30 inches). Bow is in great shape, happy to provide more information if there is any interest. Hoping to sell the bare bow for $425+ shipping.
Seems simple enough! Perhaps I'll I grab a used or decent .223 and slowly start to aquire some reloading supplies instead of getting a rifle in a magnum caliber.
Most of the research I've done, everybody seems to love to associate fps, ke, foot lbs, etc. to lethality.
The .223 thread was a...
Buying a more affordable .223 may be in the cards for me but I don't know if I'd be willing to invest in one that is the exact same platform that I'd be investing in to hunt with is what I was getting at.
No worries! I should have chosen my words a little better, I don't think that it's going to help me become a better shooter to shoot a specific caliber in any sense. Like I stated before, I'm fairly ignorant when it comes to shooting anything past 300 yards. When I said forgiving I meant in a...
People either seem to love or hate the 6.5 creedmoor.. I thought it would be nice to get something that may be a little more forgiving.
I hear that.. I'd probably end up doing the same, shoot the 6.5 more because the long range ranges are so much further than me. The 6.5 is still expensive but...
Thank you much!
I have a Howa 1500.. I know they can be a viable option anywhere from 300-400 yards for elk but I'd much rather be shooting a cartridge that will carry more energy further and won't limit me in the future. Depending on my comfort and/or the conditions I may not even want to...
I typically only practice out to 200-300 yards, I live and hunt in the east mostly so anything over 100 is rare—so are ranges past 100.
I'm trying to prepare for a western hunt next year so I want to take some classes. Trying to get my feet wet with antelope, mule deer or a combo tag. I...
Listening now, thank you!
I am unfortunate enough to live in the east. I don't know if I've ever seen Nosler on the shelf here. I can't say I've ever looked for PRC. Even 6.5 Creedmoor can be hard to find. I'm basically limited to the few online retailers that will ship to me.
Plenty of bird...
Didn't even realize they had carbon wrapped, I didn't see it on their pricing page at a glance.
I'll need a time machine to deal with these turnover times.
I've heard a lot of good stuff about the Havaks too!
Keith, thanks so much for the detailed response. Beautiful blasters by the way!
You guys have me leaning towards my own build now. I haven't heard of Mac Bros until now, that's definitely more my price range for an action and it looks like a...
Pro success for sure, those are some beautiful animals.
I'm not sure what building a bolt action would entail, there doesn't seem to be much info on building one oddly enough.. Makes me assume it's either really difficult or really easy. I've build a few ARs but I doubt it's comparable.
I like...
Just had to look up the r8, no wonder I've never heard of it—20k is a heck of a price tag lol..
I'm just looking for something on the lighter end, stainless or cerakoted, something that I can potentially grow into if I ever get into reloading but at the same time trying not to break the bank...
I don't think that right now would be the time to invest in reloading with the cost of everything being so high, especially those primers. I bought some shotgun primers for my muzzleloader for like 5x the normal price after going to multiple locations.
I would love to mess around with Nosler or...
Hey all,
Disclaimer: I'm fairly ignorant to rifles as I've been bow hunting for the majority of my time.
All of these options have me overwhelmed. I'm going to liquidate a gun or two to get a nice rifle and some glass.
I currently have a 308 and 6.5 creedmoor but I want something that can...
