You have the same problem as I do. Have been lining up an antelope hunt for years. When it's time for putting in applications, everyone gets an excuse why they think they can't go. Just frustrating. Drove into Canada by myself on a moose hunt, NM on a muley hunt,AK on bear hunt, and a few...

5 boxes of Corbon 444 heavy mag 3 - 305 gr. bonded core JFP 2100 fps 2 - 280 gr. bonded core JFP 2200 fps $ 50 / box

Can do a trade or buy, which do you prefer. I have both ,243 and ,308 bullets

Do you need anything in trade for the colt dies

Do you still have 45 colt dies

Nowadays I tend on finding bullets that don't break up so much on an animal. I previously said I use Nosler ballistic tip and still do, but don't shoot the 06 much anymore. Where I hunt now is straight wall cartridge territory so anything with a .45 in the name is the game. But with the 06...

Up here in Michigan , where we hunt , you harvest 7 deer a season, plus I help a couple farmers with their control permits in the summer. I shoot everything with 165 Nosler ballistic tip. Ranges of 50 to 400 yds and no complaints from the deer.

At 200 yards or less anything that shoots good will work on whitetails. I have an "06 imp which I built 25 years ago with a Shilen barrel with 1: 14 twist just for 165-168 bullets. I use Nosler ballistic tips, hornaday 165 sp and Berger 168 hunting. The rifle is a tack driver, always was. I...

A friend of mine has a cool setup. I call it his Savage switch barrel. It has a 264WM barrel, 338 barrel and a 450 marlin barrel that he changes out. He changes the scope out with Warne QD rings. Pretty neat. Check out ER Shaw they make a neat custom rifle . You just pick out you...

The place my friend goes to in Newfoundland is Moosehead outfitters.

If your not into a giant trophy but want a quarter ton of meat , try Newfoundland. My friend Dennis goes every year and is successful. They mostly drive around in a truck and then do some calling. If you want trophy quality you have to get off the beaten path. The locals haul out his moose...

I'm going to Walmart later ,I'll see if they have any.

My wife wants nothing to do with taking the life of a game animal. She's ok with me doing it, but when I obsess over it ,like during the rut she just rolls her eyes. Over the years she became quite fond of venison, and now questions me when I share the harvest with others. I got her into pistol...
