    Bowmar's beast broadhead

    Yeah I’m honestly disappointed in another derailed Rokslide thread. I read all 10 pages, and while Zac certainly wasn’t perfect, I agreed with him most of the way through… or at least the points he was trying to make. He got ganged up on and said a few things he shouldn’t have in the end. I...

    Mathews Lift Limb issues?

    Everyone at the pro shop told me there was a TINY chance of a limb failure, before I actually purchased my lift. “No doubt you would ever have to warranty it” were the exact words they used. 5 months and a few thousand arrows through it, they cracked and made a noise when they went out. 70...

    Whitetail Arrow Weight

    If it works fine for you, then that’s really all that matters. What If you took 2 different hunters, with the same draw weight and length. One was looking for mule deer in the high country, and one looking for Roosevelt elk, in dark timber. Wouldn’t you recommend they shoot a different arrow...

    Whitetail Arrow Weight

    Well that clears the air!! Thanks. You’re launching some serious energy downrange…

    Whitetail Arrow Weight

    Gosh, I wouldn’t say pretty easy to do, but you are right. I’m pushing 520gr at 281FPS with 75# and 30”. the reason I asked, is because I knew 520 at 290 was definitely on the upper end of things… just interesting to see what other people are at.

    Whitetail Arrow Weight

    What bow, draw weight and length do you have to get a 520gr arrow at 290FPS?

    Victory

    Thanks for starting the thread Jotis. I do not have an answer for you, regarding the HLR. I haven’t been in the archery game for too long, so take my opinion for what it is. I started filling tags a few years ago, with a 250$ bear bow I got on Craigslist. Wrong draw length and everything...

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

    I never even came close to saying a 6mm was inadequate. You might be that category of person that defends little calibers like they are their own children, if you thought that’s what I was getting at. I shoot a 6.5 creed and love it. But a 338 Lapua is gonna hit harder and do more damage, sorry...

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

    You don’t have any clue about terminal performance. You relate broadhead and arrow performance, to bullets. Arrows and broadheads kill with less than 100ft pounds of energy as you said yourself. Get archery off this thread … it’s nonsense. And it’s trashing this thread up. I’ve killed with...

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

    Calling my statement “shitting up the thread with large caliber nonsense” was a good way to get punched in the nose, if I do say so myself.

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

    Then why would I give a f*#% about what the troopers use? See a trend here?

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

    You gave me the worlds worst example of an arrow killing elk… then told me to “quit shitting up the thread with large caliber nonsense”. Because I’ve looked over plenty of animals shot with calibers from 6mm-338, and I’ve observed more damage with the larger calibers. Special was honestly the...

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

    Yeah I tried just leaving a respectful comment with another user that I agreed with. 6mm 108gr bullets, won’t do as much damage as a 338 cal 300gr bullet. “Buddy” John told me to lay off the large caliber nonsense… I promise I’d be using bigger words, if we were in person.

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

    I do not care. Go look at a “cartridge selection for Alaska” thread, and tell me what the guides say. Don’t take it from me, just go look.

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

    I agree! I threw it in quotes, because you’re exactly right. Dead is dead. You can’t kill “better” if they both died. I’ve used 6mm and 338, they all work good. Special John doesn’t think so, but there is definitely a difference.

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

    Right! Exactly! John is on the special side for sure. By the way, I shoot a 6.5 creed and love it. Killed animals with 147 ELD-M in a creedmoor, but have also killed animals with 300 grainers out of Lapua. Different tools, for different jobs. The only winner is the man who owns all of them, so...

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

    Hey buddy, I read the first 10 pages with about 2 real pics of bullet failures. If that. We’re on page 53 or 54 now. You’d better have posted a bullet failure, with pictures, or you’d better get off the thread yourself. You know what’s funny? I just got off a thread of cartridge selection in...

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

    100% agree. I think when you go to a bigger caliber, shooting a heavier bullet, with the same velocity, I believe they cause more damage and “kill better”. I can’t back it up by science, other than ft lbs of energy, BC, or velocity…. But in my experience (looking at terminal performance on...

    338 question

    Well I’m 10 years behind you, but I’m heading in the same direction you already went. .338 Lapua Improved at 28” with the most effective 5 port brake I could find. I plan on being close to 3,000 with a 300gr projectile. Not many people choose this route for hunting…

    KIFARU ARK FRAME review

    I can’t tell you I’ve tested an old frame extensively, but I did get to try one on with some weight, and brand new. It certainly has a different feel with a softer foam in the lumbar pad. Honestly, I wasn’t a fan of the newer, stiffer foam at first. The softer foam on the old frame felt better...
