I joined this forum because I thought I had a Nevada Elk tag this year and bought a bigger rifle and needed help to increase my range and shooting skills but I did not end up with the tag due to some confusion and after dragging my lug nuts on the ground for a bit I went back to shooting the new...

The fustrating/infuriating part of it is I own a service buisness and print everything and I mean everything for backup and did not print that. It has saved me enough times with buisness that I know better but this one got by me and I am paying the price for it.I doubt it would change the...

They put out the general list and then I had to log into my account to se the results so I did not actually get an email and there is no paper trail for it.

I got a good bipod on the rifle and have been doing alot of dry firing and the bipod seems to have improved my shooting(loading the bipod is much more steady than a rest or sandbag) I am now shooting 3/4 inch groups at 100 and keeping my 200 yard groups under 2 inches regularly but I ran into a...

I would have to agree on the flinch cause the target don't lie. When I pull the stock in tight it seems to make me shake a bit so I tend to have a loose grip on it to help elliminate that but it must be causing it to slap me more and then I flinch and the good first group would back that up and...

I got the rifle back out Friday and put another box of the 180 accubonds thru it and the first three shot group I shot was 9/16 inch and it was my best group, this is what I need to work on cause I start to fall apart quickly after a few rounds and am still not sure how to address this.I also...

I am very compitent and staying safe and know very well how to have fun,shooting straight.......thats the part I am concerned with and need to work on,LOL

I inventoried all my poweder last night and I have about 12 pounds of 4350 and that is what I use in my 270win with great results but I see it is the middle of the scale for the 300wm so it looks a bit fast for it. Does anyone have experience with it in the 300?

After this hunt I will work up a load for it cause I have about 40lb of different powders and at 3$ a round the weekly practice is going to add up quick and I will try the Berger bullets. I plan on shooting 20 rounds per session and always bring a 22lr with me to settle my mind while the rifle...

I ended up putting a VX5HD on it and shot it yesterday with Nosler 180 Accubonds but I forgot all my sandbags so had to shoot it off the plastic rest with no bag for the stock. In the shoot and clean prosess rounds 7 thru 14 went in an 1 1/2 group with 4 in a 3/4 inch cluster so I am sure that...

Planning on using turrets for holdover and have a leopold rangefinder but it only ranges reliably to about 600 so will upgrade that also.
