Two retired gentlemen looking to shoot in Wyoming for P Dogs. We have hunted in South Dakota before but do not like the rules on the Res. We used to stay in town and drive out to shoot everyday. Hunting for 3-4 days at a stay. We live close to Minneapolis MN. PM and I will send you an e-mail...

Thanks for the input guys. 400 yards I have done on Deer, but 500?? Hummmm. We will see if we get draw'n for the tags in early June. 22 Mag

Anyone hunted in north central New Mexico, West of Taos for elk? If so, how were the Elk numbers and how did you do? 22 Mag

My best groups with the 87 gr V-max have come at just over 3400 fps with the .243 AI in a 26" barrel length. Both with a 1/10 and a 1/8 barrel, grouped well enough to hit P-dogs at 900+ yards. The 87 gr load at that speed is NOT fur friendly. 22 Mag

I use H4895 and Sierria 39Gr B-Kings for my best groups in a Savage M12 in .204.

I have one in 7mm Rem Mag. It shoots very good with the 140's or 160's my best gruops are under 1.00 inch with out much work. I like the stock alot. All I have done to it is clean and shoot. It is a bear to carry thru the woods though. You shoud have good luck with yours 22 Mag

I have not used Retumbo in my .243 AI, but I have used IMR 7828 with mixed results. The powder gets my 105's or 107's up to speed, about 3300 fps, but the best groups for my gun were not at warp speed, but just under. I have a Win M70 in .243 AI with a 28" 1-8 twist Pac-Nor tube on the...
