    Hunting bullet performance - prefer through or a grenade inside?

    I like grenades and here is why. I hate tracking, I can do it, but id rather avoid it. Also, let's say we are using a 6.5 whatever on whitetails. You can load a 160gr solid or a mono in them that will completely penetrate a moose, yet that same bullet is under performing on whitetails. If...

    New personal best.

    So... I'm from n.w. pa, pretty much have limited my hunting experience to my local area. Today was the last day of our regular firearms deer season. I had both buck & doe tag, had passed on several small buck in archery, holding out for at least a decent 8pt. No buck were to be found today...

    243 twist rate

    Just finished it, less than 20 so far, all factory hornady 123 sst's. It cycles just like it would normally. I run a supressor so it keeps the brass alot cleaner doing it that way. Converted a 16" side charge .223 first, ran it as a semi first. I like running them without the gas system.

    243 twist rate

    Gonna relay some of my experience with the 243, then head down a different rabbit trail... I've hunted with a 243 for 30 years this year, killed probably close to that many deer with 1 as well. Rem 700 bdl 1:9.25 twist & 100 gr bullets to start. Now its a beretta brx1 1:8 twist 20" pipe...

    SBR Howa mini vs ULUL- 7.62/6.5/300blk

    Took a deer this year with a 300 blk shooting 190 subs this year, very well pleased with results. I took a ruger g1 ranch, suppressed it, and scoped it with a burris eliminator giving me 160 yards of corrected range. The 190 subx hammered the deer.

    High value predator rifle?

    The best rifle for predator hunting in that price point is probably the ruger g2. The savage trail hunter is a close second, but the ruger has a shorter bolt lift, and fluted barrel. Now, the factory stock is junk, so by the time you add a mdt or Indian creek your at a 1,000 dollar rig...

    Neck shot ethics

    If they are looking at you, bottom of the white on their throat. Don't like taking the shot when their head is down personally, as they move their head alot. Side view, about middle to base of skull.

    Neck shot ethics

    Over 20 whitetail dropped with a 243 & neck shot, they never moved... 100% effective with minimal meat waste, and you either pile them up, or they run off unharmed. You do need a precision shot though, your target is the size of a beer can compared to dinner plate.

    22ARC or 6ARC for coyotes under 500 yards?

    22 arc. Here are my reasons. 22 is faster, therefore flatter, a huge plus in night hunting. Also a 22 bullet of a given weight, compared to a 6mm of the same weight, will have a higher bc & fly better than its 6mm counterpart. Only argument I can make for the 6arc is that it has more...

    Looks like a g series inline, blued barrel, synthetic stock, pic rail for scope.

    1-8" twist heavy 22cal bullets

    Has been my experience that the 1/8 will stabilize a 75gr bthp and no more. The 88 eldm was a no go. 68's were pretty.

    Have a 45cal white inline located..

    Anyone have any experience with white inline rifles? Looking at 1 in 45 cal. Are they accurate? What's everyone using for powder now.

    Factory Ammo for 1:14 twist 22-250

    I have a 1:14 tikka t3x varmit that I predator hunt with. 55gr varmit x from winchester have been good. Just getting into handloads for it now, no data yet there. Bugger has been great on coyote, and explosive on fox & coon

    What's your most accurate hunting rifle?

    Me... take a tikka t3x varmit. They are what 8.6 lbs. Add a thermal scope, another 2, add a supressor, 1/2 a pound. Now your pushing 12lbs, and 54" long.

    What bullet for 22-250 & coyotes

    So I've been using a tikka t3x v in 22-250 14t for thermal coyote hunting. Longest connection so far, 320yrd. Most shots are 150 to 250. I have hornady 55sp, 55gr sgk (lead tip), and 55 varmegeddon. Currently shoot a win v&p poly tip. Has been very lethal with 1 shot kills.. Whats your go...

    Bolt vs Semi for Coyote/Thermal

    I like my bolts, feed easier, more caliber choices, I run a can so the ar15's ammo gets really dirty, bolts stay clean. I picked other cause my new coyote rig is a beretta brx1 straight pull in 243
