Hey must see some monster whitetails there i bet. I'm in SW ontario, NOT Toronto. I mainly archery deer hunt and turkey hunt. But once a year I go 'north' for a rifle deer hunt mainly 200 yards and in. Went for bear last year, no dice. Have friends and family in AB and we are making plans...

Hey I realize this post is a couple years old. So I'm hoping you will be able to answer this question given 2 years of trials. I'm kicking tires on a CZ 557 in either .308 or 30-06 and love to hear your experiences. Have you determined a max range of effectiveness on big game?

Update: precision hunter was good at 100 but nit so good that I won't keep looking. I had a heck of time, believe it or not, finding the power shock. I am going try those shortly. Using the Berger stability calculator the precision hunter is only marginally stable. The power shock however...

I am the same. However I have also done the head in shot below the neck. Dropped in its tracks, literally. That was with a slug. This year I'm in such a drought that I'm forgetting what a whitetail looks like

Hahahaha. I did not reD that right at all.

@Good Thats a pretty detailed sounding build i like it. I've been looking myself for a hunting rig but I'm a 6hr drive from where I will be doing anything close to backcountry hunting. As a result I'm looking at something thats efficient on the highways as well as capable offroad, (not rock...

Hornady's American whitetail and Winchester super X. Like I had said earlier the lighter stuff grouped sub moa but the American whitetail just did not. The super X was a bit better but not what I expected. I shot them all on the same day giving the barrel time to cool etc. And to see if it...

Yeah so far the 100 grain factory ammo i have shot was 2.5 to 3moa whereas the 58's were .75 moa. Which is what prompted the question.

Good to know. Thanks

Since this thread is already up and running I don't want to start another one. It looks like everyone is reloading to get that great performance with higher grain bullets out of their t3's with 1:10 twist. Is anyone getting good results with factory ammo that's heavier than 58grains?

Hey man I'm only about three hours West and South of you I get 1 here same as you but I'm close enough to a couple places that draws for additional tags so every now and then I get 2. I also archery bear hunted there this past fall and go to a deer camp in 60. Love that area. In terms of...

Haha, yeah I don't remember the winters being this mild as a kid EH. Although I am in Southern Ontario almost in line with Detroit. I agree theres lots of expertise here I think back to marksmanship training and some of the advice is repeated here but the depth of knowledge and science...

Thank you all.

Hello all, new guy here from Ontario. Not much long range hunting to be done here. I am here to learn. I have friends out West and we plan to do some backpack hunting out there. In the meantime I need to work on my abilities and acquire/build the appropriate mountain rifle. Currently...
