I killed this buck in 73 on public land within 200 yards of an interstate. Lots of antelope, lots of public land, tough draw odds.

Has anyone shot this bullet at long distances (600 to 800 yards) and computed an accurate BC? The Barnes website lists it as .336, while the Weatherby Ammunition website page lists it as .42. That's a pretty big difference. I want to develop accurate drop charts for my .257 Weatherby. The...

Personally, I'd be concerned about sharing a ranch with 100+ other hunters.

I would like a lightweight hunting rifle that I could use to ethically kill big game out to 600 yards and perhaps longer. I read about 338 Edges, 338 Lapuas, 300 RUMs and others and get all excited. Then I see they're offered in 14 pound guns, or guns with so much recoil that you get knocked...

Between the two I would take the Leica. Smaller and lighter. Smaller aiming reticle.

Rangefinder. Get a Leica and you will not be disappointed.

I've just about decided to get a Browning X-Bolt Stainless Stalker. It has nearly all the features I want, and I have read very few complaints about it.

7 pounds gun only; as it comes "out of the box" if you will.

I have given up on my Weatherby Ultralight 257. I want a lightweight gun (7 pounds or less) that shoots 1 MOA. I don't reload currently. I am considering the 270 WSM as the caliber of choice. I've looked at the Winchester Model 70s, the Browning X Bolts, and the Kimber Montana lines. I...
