Here is a good article that moved me to purchase the RCBS which is the fastest dispenser even though I wish it was faster! http://www.6mmbr.com/powderdispensers01.html

Shawn, maybe you and Fifty can develop a good wolf load when and if we ever get them deslisted. I can't imagine a better 1 mile wolf gun!

Re: Back from my elk hunt, I\'m just sick I feel for you also and your sick feeling shows what kind of a guy you are and that you are a true sportsman who cares about the game and you give elk hunters credit with your philosophy. I've killed a lot of bulls and I wish there was consistancy to...

I have the same experience as Sniper 2. I have multiple 700's and Savages and the latter shoot consistantly better than the 700's out of the box. I like the smoother action feeding in the 700's but for the price you can't beat this kind of accuracy from a stock rifle if you are on any kind of...

I just got done investigating this bull and this is what I found: -- -- -- Tammie Walters who owns the elk farm in Riggins, Idaho saw this photo and her son knows the guide in the photo. The elk came from a farm in Canada, in fact they had a vet down doing some A.I. work and she said she has...

Kirby is right on but make sure you don't accidently hit bone or heavy scapula's at close range with some of those bullets. Its difficult when the animal is running.

The reason I say Pet elk is that one of my buddies recently got one with a bow and the dumb thing walked up to him like it wanted petted or to be hand fed! The good thing was that he shot it and gets to shoot as many as he can find, plus fill his regular tag on a real elk! Doesn't get much...

I bet its either one of the escaped Pet elk from Southern Idaho or a Utah Bull. I hunt the Selway a lot and they don't have an archery season. Early Rifle in the Selway opens on 9-15 and I doubt some guy with a bow is hunting during the rifle season on a Selway rifle tag. The escaped elk were...

Reed were you shooting a deer or wapiti? Did they seem to open up at all and expand or just shoot through like a solid unless bone was hit? I've always found the J4 jackets to be quite fragile on big game like elk especially up close but they may have improved. I've never tried them on deer just...

Let me know how the load works out. I've had great luck with the H380 with the 243 with the same bullet. I love H380 also because it meters so consistantly and settles in the case so well. My boy uses this for collecting coyote pelts and it doesn't usually penetrate the hide.

Sorry I'm in Lewiston 100 miles North.

With a thin jacketed bullet like the Berger you would have drastic kills when the bullet goes to pieces in the boiler room. The problem is if you hit bone up close on deer and especially elk the bullet could disinegrate on the shoulder blade and the animal may get away on you and suffer a...

Re: Just cause it is in print don\'t make it so Fifty I just noticed they just increased their 180 advertised factory velocity to 3,550! Wonder what magical componants they are using?

Try the new Nosler Brass for the 338 WM. Little spendy but very strong and consistant. http://www.noslershop.com/

Need more gun! Way to go!
