Only the best dam magnum powder ever made.

I've seen 1moa rifles make consistent kills at 6-800yds. And seen them miss at the same range. Ive also seen 1/4" rifles miss at that range too! Lot of reasons for a miss that have nothing to do with the rifle. But what I do know is that if the shooter thinks he will hit it at 800 then he has a...

I'll trade you for some 215s or RL26!

Dang thats tempting. Favorite new caliber. I'll pass this on to a friend whos lookinh for a practice rifle.

I bait them with dead calves from local farmers. I also use meat table scraps of any kind. My bait pIle is 60yds behind the house. I use a cheap $25 driveway sensor on the pile to let me know they are there at night. I don't have time to sit and wait on them so the motion sensor is great for...

2nd the 6mmarc. Its my new favorite do it all predator rifle. 105s @2700 put em down hard to 600yds. 70s for something spicier at close range. Short barrel AR platform for easy packing and target rich environments

I would offer the .243 win vs 6mm rem as about the closest example there is of a test between long and short neck cartridge and there effects on throat erosion. While the 6mm rem burns more powder at higher pressure I have never heard anyone say the 243 throat will last as long as a 6mm rem...

These "Gunaholic Anonymous" meetings are worthless! Now I want an old 30-06 to play with!

Congrats on the new Pew! My suggestion would be to not use the hottest load available for the first box only because the barrel is a little rough at first and it leaves more copper to remove at first.. A 1000 different opinions on break in so do what you think works for you. I used barnes...

Not sure what you mean by efficiency?? Hard hitting is really gonna depend on what range your hitting at but heavier and faster equals harder. 30 cal 300NMI: Fast and accurate. Mag feeds the heavies. My personal choice aswell. 300 rum 300WM 300prc 300wsm 30-378 gets a mention but only because...

Bump

I think I need one of these? Some areas we hunt have great deer but the property owners say no guns. No problem totally get it. Due to shoulder damage drawing a bow is difficult. So crossbow it is but I have no idea what's good whats bad whats needed whats not needed. I would also like to mount...
