    SOLD/EXPIRED Alberta deer hunting

    Stricker outfitting in Alberta has a few open Nov. whitetail hunts. I don't normally advertise for friends but this is a real opportunity for one or more of you to score on a really big buck and have very good odds. If this is remotely interesting to you email Charlie at [email protected] to...

    In what situations is long-range hunting utilized??

    To me the most important thing is an accurate rifle. At least if you know your rifle shoots MOA or better you can better judge how you are doing at extended range. This is at the point I'm at. I want to develop accurate loads with good BC's so that when I try paper at 400 plus I know that if I...

    In what situations is long-range hunting utilized??

Will be able to seat long ballistic tip bullets close to lands without any problem. Has decelerator pad 11 degree...

    New LR hunter needs gun and advice (Canada)

    Very good input Gerry. I'm reasonably familiar with most modern boltaction guns but not too familiar with all the different actions and variations from years past. Having said that, I find my 30-06 in a sporter covers my close to medium range needs for all the game I'm going to hunt. My...

    New LR hunter needs gun and advice (Canada)

    It's a little like trying to pick a chocolate bar at 7-11. So many options. I believe .284 or .300 with mag punch but would be nice if recoil manageable. Sendero or Savage or rebarel an action? Anyone here from Canada willing to help me get a rifle at reasonable cost? I reload for my 30-06 and...
