[QUOTE="davewilson, post: 446088, member: 4491"] BB, i was using the 215GM primers. both shells had the bottom 1/3 of the powder blackened and clumped together. the rest of the powder looked fine. i'm blaming it on the powder, it sat for more than a year, but don't know if the primer might not be the culpert. i can't imagine running a camera yet. i've done that from a treestand with whitetails but with this long range and the animals moving, it would be impossible. i remember watching guys long range hunt some 35 years ago and saying if the animals are feeding, we're in business. if they're moving through, it's very difficult. i would agree with that statement. Joel, i knew you'd chime in here with "i was waiting by the phone". was figuring on heading upstate,but with the rain and my foot acting up, just went back down to WV. a day before decision. it is a whole 150 yard hike from the truck...you sure that's not too far? besides, i saw so many bears the first week, i figured if you were there, we wouldn't see any and i'd have to put up with that for lord knows how long! Roy, never reload for anyone else. [/QUOTE]
