    300wsm Bullet Selection

    In a world where ammo is hard to come by, I might be in search of something that I can’t get. Like most of us here, I’m looking for a good round with above standard terminal ballistics and a relatively good BC. However, I do realize you usually give up one for the other. Ideally I’d like to...

    Trigger pull ounces or pounds

    Curious what guys are shooting long range and hunting with. I like trigger pull around 8oz some guys like 2.5lb. Why would you run heavy pull? I don’t load my rifle till I’m ready to shoot so a slip Fire is probably not a issue. I always hear the saying “ 2lb in a hunting rifle “. Why not...

    I purchased a wiggys antarctic hunter -60 deg sleeping bag for hunting this year. I used it in a tent with a cot and a Klymit static v insulated pad. On the first trip temps got down to single digits and one night I got cold and put my thermals on and was fine from then on. On the next trip...

    7mm Rem Mag and the old Barnes...

    Guys, this will be practically ancient question, but... :-) My smith gave me few boxes of the old Barnes X 175gr flat base bullets (no bands on it). I like to try it with the Norma MRP-2. I already have sorted the bullets for base-to-ogive length - surprisingly accurate. The next step, I've...

    Hey gang, Drawing results came out and I finally got a 215 tag for Montana. I’m wondering if anyone has hunted it before and has any info and doesn’t mind sharing. Got a call into the biologist and I’m already looking at BMAs but some actual experience would be greatly appreciated!

    Drew a B zone tag for a CA blacktail hunt. It will be my first time for blacktail and first time in that zone, as I usually head out for muleys.
