    Long-ish range prairie dog caliber?

    Sounds like two rifles is the answer . Go with a heavy bareled 22-250 (he’s fired up about this cartridge), and the “obsolete” 260rem in something lighter weight. Take both to the p-dog field, and if wind is a limiter on longer shots bring the 260 into play. A light 260 will be a great...

    General hunting scope

    If you are planning to do elk one day, depending on the type of hunt you choose, considering weight may be worthwhile. I hunt hard country, and the first year I went I took a very heavy rifle with a very heavy Nightforce on top. The long shots I was banking on never materialized, but I sure...

    SOLD/EXPIRED I have an unneeded Cabelas code

    I have a Cabelas code for $20 off $150 or $50 off $500 that I won't use. If you can use it, please post here to claim it (to spare me many responses) and then send me a PM. I've been helped out this way by LRH members in the past and thought maybe I could return the favor.

    4000 fps in a 7mm STW w/140 Bullet?

    That's funny, a 747 at 80000 feet actually is pretty much the equivalent of a 7STW launching 140s at 4000fps. A debris field.

    Most Accurate 300wsm load?

    Mine is a 10 twist for the 210VLD, so I do not have any experience with 12 twist stabilization. With a 24" barrel, I did have marginally higher velocity with H4831sc relative to H4350 (about 30fps avg).

    260 rem 140gr Berger VLD vs Whitetail

    I was fortunate enough to get the opportunity to take a ~125lb doe with my 260 Rem this fall. The rifle was acquired last winter, and despite my best laid plans I did not get the chance to do any real load development with it over the summer. I shot a few trials with 37.0gr Varget and 140gr...

    SOLD/EXPIRED Have a Cabelas coupon you're not going to use??

    As ususual, had a member help me out. Went way above and beyond and was a great guy on the phone as well. He didn't post here so I won't put his handle up, but I'd vouch for him anytime if he needs it. Appreciate the help from this forum, as always! Brandon
