I have Lifetime coolers. Walmart. A friends dad did comparison with Yeti. Lifetime kept ice and temp longer. Dont think they have a 150 though....

My wife and I hunt together. We both get tags. She shoots a 257 WBY and I shoot a 300 Win. So far......she is in the lead with the biggest bull of our adventures together. Neither of us ever shoot over 800 yds. She caps herself at 400.

Put me in the contest please.

Really? Where? We live in Missouri heights.

would you be interested in trading? I have a Springfield XDS 45 with all the trimmings that I need to part with (have 2). Let me know if your interested. I know mine is worth less so if your interested lets make a deal.

I have a Ruger M77 in 6.5-300 RSAUM. I has a 28" tube and its a little heavy. Just thought I would throw it out there. Let me know if you want pics.

I agree totally. I think the discussion here should be about shot placement rather than bullet performance. My wife shoots a 257 WBY for big game because it is a gun she can control and make the bullet go where she wants it to. Evidence is the 5x5 she put away last sunday.

This is my wife's first elk ever. She had an either sex tag for our late season and really was expecting to shoot a cow to fill the freezer. We got into elk the day before we found him but could not get a clean shot. Left them alone and hiked back in the next morning before daylight. The elk we...

I'll take the 6.5 140 grainers.

I have a new to me Ruger M77 MkII that was rebarrelled and chamber for the 6.5 RSAUM. When I bought the rifle it came with reloading dies and some brass. I have sized the brass with the dies provided with no problems. I loaded the cases with 60, 60.5 and 61 grains of Retumbo. After reading...

I see. I was thinking also of trying Reloader 17 or accurate MagPro. Have you tried any others or is Retumbo is your go to? Sounds like you got a good thing going with it.

Have you tried Retumbo any hotter? Did accuracy suffer? I want to get to 3300 if I can do it accurately. How long a BBL are you shooting through?

hello all. I am looking for some info on a new to me rifle that I have purchased. I recently (not here yet) aqcuired a 6.5 SAUM in a Ruger Mark 2 action 28" tube 1-9 twist. This is my first 6.5 caliber. I shot two elk in the last two years with a friends 6.5-284 and loved that. I was going to...
