Well we hunt elk in Silverton Colorado on the north east side of the mountain. We usually hunt them with a bow but if I had to use a rifle I think the further shout feet may be 74 yards we used 243 single shot they don’t even move. It just dropped with 100 grain bullet, we get our limit every...

I use just at a case sod buster used it since I was 10 years old for everything thing. I sharpened it like I was taught by my grandfather flat on stone easy to Re-sharpen over and over again I have shaved out there in the bush with it too. But they going up in price. I bought my first at 5...

I just bought a lathe to make my on barrels I looking at twisting the steel before drilling out the bore I shoot 6.5x300 love it . Getting 2400 rounds before replacing it. Shooting 138 grain. I want see what a 32 inch barrel will do. When I start the build in January I post some pictures.

With the well placed shot on that 300 Winchester short mag I'm using 145 grain bullet comes out pretty fast and it's never let me down on elk

I would go with 25-08, I think just as u start liking the 25.-284 u have to change the barrel out again. I like the feel and know the gun as she performing and 25.-08 has to be practical this day and age.

Wow I have mine in weatherby kicks less them my 300 win mag in rem 700 don't know why . My 300 weatherby is 28 inch flute barrel had it about 20 years or so

Nice calipier 06 have a huntsman grandfather in caliper. I inherited the gun. I think longest shot was 763 yds.I was told by him the gun doesn't make a hunter the hunter makes the gun. He was so true. 06 is a caliper most calipers try to top. Some have some still can't beat. Happy hunting
