I like the way you progressed in yardage, I have not shot out past 800. I can't quite imagine a mile. Thanks for sharing.

In 2007, Kirby completed a rifle for me chambered in 300 Weatherby. I was finally able to use the rifle for its intended purpose. I was fortunate enough to draw a CM Russsell Refuge tag. On November 22, after 22 days hunting the area, I spotted a couple of bulls and was able to sneak within...

Recoil is minimal. I shoot a 210 SMK at 2950fps.

Sorry for the late reply......Ha! It is comfortable to shot. I did not notice the bold angle until I read your question.

I shoot the 210 SMK out of my .300 Wby. 80.5 gr. H1000 2975fps. Sometimes I can get them to shoo 1" groups at 300yds. I shot one antelope at 650 with it and one elk at 300. I could not tell you performance as they were pass thru.

I shoot 210SMK out of my .300 Weatherby. 27-inch barrel 3-groove. I get 2975fps average with 80.5grains of H1000. Fed215 primers. It will go faster, but this load has the best extreme spread. FWIW. eric

I use an adjustable cheekpiece now. Concentrating on holding my cheek at the same position on the cheekpiece each shot is one of my main challenges.

The camera is a FinePix S700 by Fuji.

I enjoyed all of the '08 hunting stories posted. Gratz to all of you. I harvested one doe Pronghorn other than that, this year was dry for me. I did manage hunt a bunch of neat country. I did shoot my steel target at 800 pretty consistently when taken afield and feel confident at that...

OK, I will jump into this one. My rough understanding of standard deviation is how close your data points cluster around the mean (average). Small SD most data are close to the average; large SD most data are further from the average. I do not really look at SD, but this thread made me...

What they did was truly amazing. It is equivalent of shooting a bullet with your bullet and leading it perfectly. It takes more than a mathematician to accomplish that. Again, truly amazing. eric

Kirby, Darn, I missed seeing those in your shop, by a couple of days. They look nice. It is a shame you had to endure the wide array of opinions on your animal. I guess it is a web forum so you have to be ready for the strong opinions. I think you explained your position well. Nice...

I run Exbal on an old Palm Vx. I have had no problems with the program. Does anyone know what types of problems were reported on the Palm platform? Maybe I have some bugs and just do not know it. Thanks eric
