    Looking for a new press

    I personally use the co-ax & have since the early 80's. It's so old it was a Bonanza Co-ax, pre Forrester.

    Brian’s Idaho 6x6 Bull Elk

    I'm curious as well, was it hunted on public land or private & was it a guided hunt? you don't have to reveal the location but would still like to know the answers to those 2 questions?

    What’s your five? 5 Calibers to do it all...

    ok, this is how far i've gotten, so haven't gotten to anything about handguns yet;), another rifle to replace the 22, i'd add both the 7mm & 30 cal.

    Lube outside of necks with bushing dies?

    I used graphite/imperial wax since 1981 & thought i'd never use anything else???? But about 5 yrs. or so ago, i read an article/blog on sizing brass & they were using something i'd never heard of before. A mixture of 99% alcohol & pure lanolin oil. I don't have the exact mixture in front of me...

    6.5mm copper monos for Elk - LRX vs CX vs E-tip vs CEB vs Hammer vs Lehigh

    I'm far from the sharpest marble in the jar, but "YMMV"? Way more muzzle velocity?, I'm trying not sound overly stupid, but not the best with acronyms & I'm not being smart either.

    6.5mm copper monos for Elk - LRX vs CX vs E-tip vs CEB vs Hammer vs Lehigh

    I said, "it seems to me" but when I read the blogs on here about bullets, if copper/mono bullets are brought up, it's Hammer or Cutting edge, you hardly ever see anyone say anything good about Barnes or Nosler(which I've never used their copper bullets), at least, that's what I seem to notice...

    6.5mm copper monos for Elk - LRX vs CX vs E-tip vs CEB vs Hammer vs Lehigh

    Opinions??????? Theoretical facts & figures, wow, Really? How long has Barnes been around, how much game has been killed with Barnes bullets? Much longer than your Hammer & etc!!! I just don't understand all of the Barnes bashers on this site, at least it seems to me like it. I'll take a Barnes...

    How far out will you kill an elk by yourself?

    I appreciate how you described the "backpack" hunting the way you did, the passion & desire & willpower to do it all on your back with a group, but also to individuals that probably do it alone as well & how the old age just catches up way too fast!!!!!!!!!!!!! Although i've never hunted in griz...
