    Tipping standard for a hunting guide?

    Wow! I was way off. Total all in price was $3400. I was thinking $200 for the tip amount. Glad I asked!

    Tipping standard for a hunting guide?

    Just curious what the standard tip amount/percentage is nowadays for a guide? Did a hunt last weekend and am about to send the ranch owner/giude the final payment + tip. It was a smallish property at 500 acres and the ranch owner hosted, cooked a couple of meals and provided transportation to...

    25-06 Remington 700 Classic, 24" barrel. 80 Gr TTSX 55.0 Gr RL-17 WLR primer 3.1 OAL Velocity-3720 Consistently would group 3 shots into .4-.75 RL-17 provided the best combination of velocity and accuracy of the different powders I tried.

    SOLD/EXPIRED Remington 700 VSSF II 22-250

    I know. Don't know what the heck I was thinking. Obviously, I wasn't. Ha. I had/have 2 Remington 700 Classics in 220 Swift and love the cartridge. Guess you could say I'm a 220 Swift whor#. The VSSF II sure would've been a nice compliment to my collection. :)

    SOLD/EXPIRED Remington 700 VSSF II 22-250

    Nice rifle, wildfire. I was at a gun show 15 years or so ago and a vendor was selling one of these NIB, in a 220 Swift. He was asking $900 for it. I mulled over it for an hour or so and ended up talking myself out of it. Been kicking myself ever since. It's easily my biggest regret ever when it...

    What is the MOST FUSSY cartridge...and LEAST?

    Least fussy- 1.) 6.5 Creed. So easy, it's boring. 2.) 257 Weatherby. On my 3rd one and each has been super simple to find a sweet spot. Very impressive for such a high intensity cartridge. Most fussy- 270 WEATHERBY MAG!! Ugh!!

    6/06 question?

    I built a 6-06 on Rem 700 action and a 26 in, 8 twist Brux sporter contour barrel. Was amazingly accurate with Berger 105 Hybrid's at 3300 fps. The down range ballistics were pretty darn impressive. Shot mostly steel, but also killed a few whitetail and hogs. Pretty swift killer. Was also fun to...
