    Rifle Hunting Turkeys; Anyone here do it?

    It is the challenge exactly! You must maintain your focus to put that one bullet into a small target. I have always wanted to hunt turkeys but only with a rifle. I started hunting squirrels with a Remington pump .410 shotgun as a kid but as an adult I only use a scoped .22LR for the same...

    Erick, I think you have me switched with someone else here on the forum as I don't have any pictures of a hunt. Rocky

    Berger to introduce 7mm 195 gr EOL Hybrid Hunting Bullet

    These are unusual times since the re-election of the Divider-in-Chief who wants to enlighten us uninformed masses what we should believe in. Now back to reality. It is truly great that Berger is working to improve the bullets available to the public! Unforeseen things happen that delay...

    Slug Hunting

    I have looked at Brenneke slugs and they do make some good slugs. I just think there is a potential for a quantum leap in the technology if the same effort that is being applied to modern rifle bullets were applied to the slug gun hunters’ ammo. I like the Winchester Partition Gold using the...

    The Browning Safari .338 Win Mag would be a great choice. You might be interested in the article below. Bear Rifles

    Nightforce 2.5-10 x 32 NXS Compact

    I also am considering the 2.5-10 x32 rather than the 3.5 -15 X50 because I will be putting it on a rifle for hunting Black Bear. The low end 2.5 is better for closer encounters. In fact, if Nightforce made a 1-6 x32 I would seriously look at it over the 2.5-10 x32. It all depends on how you plan...

    Rifle Hunting Turkeys; Anyone here do it?

    Some states allow Turkeys to be hunted with rifles from .22 Mag thru .223. This seems to upset some people for some reason. Are there any here that hunt turkeys with a rifle? To be honest this has always appealed to me. It is a clean head shot or a miss. What is your experience?gun) Check...

    Hogs on rimfire only WMA

    Hi, I grew up in south Arkansas and have killed quite a few big boar hogs with nothing more that .22 shorts solids when that is all I had. Yes there are only a few spots like the spine to do this with but back then I was shooting a couple hundred rounds a day in practice. I usually used .22 LRs...

    New mexico oryx

    I graduated from Eastern New Mexico University while living in New Mexico for a few years. Oryx are beautiful animals that I always wished I had hunted while I was a resident but I was never able to put it together. I lived about an hour from where they were stocked into the desert. I hope you...

    Any of y'all ever done a DIY Antelope hunt in WY?

    I lived in Wyoming for ten years and took some nice antelope. I have one still with me that just missed Boone & Crockett and missed one that would have gone well up in the book. There are some very big ones around the Casper area as well as in the Red Desert area but you have to pay attention...

    Slug Hunting

    While I am showing what Dixie Slugs are capable of doing; my purpose is not too simply blow Dixie’s horn but to call for more and better development of all slugs for hunting. I am using Dixie’s as my example because to me they are the standard to beat when it comes to slugs to be used on any...
