    If you could only have 3 long guns, which would you choose?

    220 Swift, have to flip on 6.5/284 and 280, 300WM

    Favorite 44m scope 500 yards

    Been using Zeiss Conquest 4-16 for many years . Have this setup on 4 of my rigs. 3 guns I went to 50mm and like them a bit better

    204 or 223 for Prairie Dogs

    Have you considered a 220 Swift? I'm running 55gr V Max's at 3850 and they will literally suck a PD out of a hole. I shot a 204 for a year and sold it to get another Swift.

    .224 cartridge dilemma/discussion

    I love my .22 cal rifles. 222,223,22BR and the king 220 Swift. Got to shoot a 220 AI Swift on a PD town once. That was a blast. You have two very nice hot rods, don’t screw em up

    Thoughts on 257 Ackley build

    I have a 257AI and its a go to gun. I would not use a short action on it. Had mine built on a Remington 700 LA BDL and haven't regretted it. I run Nosler 100gr Partions run max. It flat loves this load and have dropped Mule deer with it.

    Thermal or NVG for hogs

    I have both and use them regularly. Prefer the AGM thermal on most nights.

    Don’t use .22 on Hogs (unless it’s a Hammer)

    220 Swift using 55gr VMax. Killed a bunch like this

    Load data for 10mm

    None so far. My bud runs one on his duty gun,226 .357 Sig, for about a year now. It takes a beating with him on a SWAT team. I plan on putting them on all of my old carry Sigs.

    Load data for 10mm

    I have a Sig 320 XTEN with 5" barrel. It has a Holosun 407c optic on it. The load I worked up is 10g HS7 and Hornady 180 XTP's. I also have Midway blemished 180 HP's that shoot just as good and a bunch cheaper. Looks like they are Sierras.

    Your favorite production rifle

    I have two factory guns that I flat enjoy hunting with. The first is a Remington LSS 280. It's a tack driver and has taken lots of whitetails and some mulies. The other is a Remington CDL-SF in 300 WM. Love shooting this one too. Another that has taken several mule deer and hogs.

    Texas Panhandle opener

    Some of my deer in cotton over the years. Deer love cotton. A lot of hunters have cotton seed out instead of corn in Texas

    Texas Panhandle opener

    This deer wasn’t over 6, probably 5. They have a way better life that out in the desert

    Scope choice for combined Elk/mule deer hunt

    Just my two cents,,,,, I put a NightForce NX8 2.5-20 ffp on my 6.5/284 build and couldn't be happier. Caught the scope on sale at Scope List for 1500. Best set up I own and most of my others are Zeiss.
