    Next Rifle Cartridge?

    I would go 24 or 25 caliber. That seems to be my preferred area these days. I still love plinking with a 223 but for hunting it’s those two areas. 243 (AI if you like tinkering with reloading) 6cm is the easy button 6GT is on deck for me 25 anything (I have a 257 Roberts AI and 25 creed which...

    .338 Lapua...worth the effort and cost?

    A good buddy shot a nice deer with a 338 Lapua (he was on hog patrol not expecting deer to come in). Don’t know for sure what bullet he was shooting but he double lunged the deer and it ran prob 70-100 yards. No meat damage that was any different than any of his other rifles. So it’s not an...

    What would have happened if I would have shot this round?

    I’d call back and ask to speak to someone else. That’s a crock of shit to be offered “swag” for defective rounds of ammo.

    Drew the Mule deer tag for Big Bend State Park!

    Man I’m super jealous that part of the state is awesome, especially the mountains. Looks like I will be putting in for this hunt from now on as well. Good luck man I hope you get something.

    What would have happened if I would have shot this round?

    Contact the manufacturer and tell them what you found with pics and I would suspect they replace the box. That’s a major QC oversight. No telling what MIGHT of happened but glad nothing did

    .338 Lapua...worth the effort and cost?

    I’ll go against the grain. I love my 338. It’s not a hunting rifle but I still hunt with it despite the 20lb weight penalty (no not western pack hunting) It’s currently sitting in the safe because it needs a new scope but once I get one on it I will start shooting it again. I always wanted a 338...

    How often do you find unrecovered animals?

    Not many times here in Texas as most land is private. However, I did find a large bodied deer that was headless dropped less than 100 yards from my lease’s (at the time) front gate. Don’t know if game wardens ever found anything about it

    6mm /.243 hunting success on Big Game

    Imo you will be on the ragged edge at 3000. Mine will get into the 2900s no prob but started seeing pressure in the Texas heat. If your higher in elevation and cooler temps most of the year prob fine.

    Neck shot ethics

    I think something that needs to be considered with some of the responses is distance of the shot. I’m actually baffled at the number of people against neck shots. The OP stated it was only a 40yard shot and some responders say they don’t feel comfortable taking that shot? At 40yards? With a...

    S and W M&P 10MM Dropping Mags and S and W Cust Service??

    My s&w 10mm has never done this though, admittedly, it doesn’t get shot as much as my other handguns. Sounds like I need to see if I can find some heavier recoiling stuff and test it.
