First deer was 381m, steep uphill shot (pic on the right) Second was 903m (I was a touch off on wind value but it dropped her). 6.5 saum, 24”, 1-8t. 3123fps -21C, 1800ft alt, 143eldx Both passed through. Both fragmented, the far shot not as much but enough it still wrecked the lungs...

Great addition on the socks. Decide and buy your sock routine and make sure your boots sizes appropriately for same.

I have not, but a good fiend who is a guide and lifetime mountaineer tried 2 sets and hand issues with both When I asked him about their performance he warned me about his experience. All I can pass on, and have no personal input. I pass on the above as my friend has spent his lifetime...

Boots are such a personal item as far as “proper” fit for mountaineering. If you live somewhere that you have access to try in several high end boots I would suggest that first and foremost. If that’s not an option, call the company itself and very knowledgeable dealer and discuss sizing...

Unfortunately performance varies ranging from brass used (internal volume and strength) to how the chamber is cut (variations in throating etc), powder primer lots etc. Start with usable case capacity (these are aprox) 300rum 110gr h20, 300win mag 93gr h2o, 300 Norma is about 105gr. Prc...

If your action / mag set up will accommodate it, it’s got plenty of horsepower. Talk to defensive edge Terminator is their baby. Awesome case though

I went through a very similar experience having one built about 18 years ago Components were good. Gunsmith worked very hard to do his best, but with hand loads about the best I ever got was 3/4moa And it was rude to shoot sans muzzle brake I have since accepted a bit more weight and a...

Just keep in mind, if you want to push 250gr class bullets, there’s no replacement for case capacity. So if you have a target velocity in mind, make sure the case has the powder volume to get you there That being said, I’m not that familiar with the Sherman

Exactly where I’m at Mine will end up 22” 300 Norma mag carbon barrel. I know and accept I won’t get the same velocity as going 26-28”. Gun is in a manners. Rings and glass relatively stripped down I’m guessing 9ish lbs range finished I just didn’t have the confidence the 300prc...

The response from Cody pretty much covers it off You have a ton of options depending on wants and available funds I just started out rebarreling my 300wm to 300prc, mid project I’ve decided to swap out actions and go 300 Norma for the extra push on the 250 class bullets. If your hearts...

Solid info Leave barrel intact flute it if you need to cut weight Clymr Terminus Apollo lite Tt or geisselle 6.5 saum chambered for 156 eol Scope choice weight appropriate and what ever flavour you prefer

With extensive use of Labradar I will echo that it’s only real con is that the accessories above should really just be part of the unit Most noted being the addition of the trigger Without it it is unreliable . Once you have it set up with the appropriate accessories it’s valuable tool...

You are correct, guess I should have looked at the box first Lol Thanks for catching that Although the 135 classic hunter shows 1-8 min the stability calculator shows stable in 1-9 at 3100 and average altitude/atmospherics (1.62 factor). If it shoots in your 264, it could be a viable...

140 elite hunter if your looking at the 156. It should stabilize in your 1-9 I ran it in my 6.5 saum before I got the 156 to shoot. The 140 elite kills no different than then 156. No issues putting it into an elk. I had way more consistent results than the 143eldx (my opinion on eldx is...

Well done Lol
