Always good to remember that they cannot guarantee the weather or a trophy. All they can guarantee is that they will work hard to give the best adventure they can, as that is within the best of their control. And even if you do not get a bear, doesn’t mean you won’t have a great hunting...

Best of luck!

With the 308 Win spec'd to 62K psi and the 338 Federal also sepc'd to 62K (although QL lists the standard pressure @ 60,191 psi) by SAAMI, I don't think there will be any problems. If your rife's action is nice and tight still, it should be fine. I had Corlanes (Rocky Mountain Rifles) rebarrel...

Bears continue to learn throughout their lives. He's not likely to forget this incident! Glad it went well for everyone!

It is truly amazing how quick a sharp broadhead kills! I would say quite often, it will beat a heart shot on an animal with a rifle. Have seen deer and other animals down and done in less than 10 seconds from a double lung hit! Even seen brown bears down and done in less than 30 seconds. Most...

Nice! Gotta love it when you can pack game out with a horses! Less work (in some ways), and adds to the adventure's overall experience! I wish that my 6.5 PRC liked the Terminal Ascent ammo a little more, but still acceptable right at MOA for accuracy. I like the on-game performance I've...

Damn! Those WI whitetails must be tough! :LOL: Glad to see you're using enough gun! ;) And the extra field practice with the larger bores is always a good idea! When my shoulder is better, I really should pack the 416 Taylor for other game. Get to see the on-game performance of the 350 gr TSX...

This is very important. Cannot stress this enough! I did the same thing with my ankle as a teenager, and while I did wreck it a couple more times over the next 10 years as a young adult, if I hadn't of pushed it the first time, it would have healed properly and I wouldn't have had as serious of...

Found the original Powershock ammo to shoot well in my rifles i tried it in, back in the day, but usually Federal's Premium ammo with Partitions, SGKs, Ballistic Tips, and/or AccuBonds shot better, so used them on game instead. Knew people, including an uncle, who used the Powershocks...

I'm thankful for the service of my family members who have served. Grandpa was in the US Navy and was in Hawaii training before Pearl Harbour, and then battles at Midway, and Okinawa. He was actually in a fox hole next the guys in the famous battle where they raised that flag under fire, that...

Use the one that performs best in your rifle. I prefer the AccuBond as I have the most experience with it. Easy to find good loads with it, regardless of caliber or weight. The ABLR can be finicky to find good loads for. I only have one rifle that likes it so far (my 6.5 PRC). As I hunt a wide...

Interesting how a wiley old deer can pick up habits to evade hunters, and prolong survival! Have read, and witnessed, where a buck will move behind cover, and then stay behind it as they move away so as to not be seen by hunters. Have also read accounts where hunters and farmers have witnessed...

"Getting old sucks but I’m highly motivated to keep going. " As the good Dr is fond of saying, "getting old isn't all that bad, but it sure is inconvenient!" Think I'm getting old enough to realize the truth is this statement! :poop: :LOL: :rolleyes: (and all the other emotions that come along...

Finally got in touch with someone from Sierra...about a month ago. They haven't gotten the bugs worked out of the new bullet yet so haven't released them. And they still haven't gotten it shot through the Doppler to get the BC rating, as it's design hasn't been finalized. They haven't updated...

Yes, as I have enjoyed using DrMike's Forster when I've gone to his place to do some reloading with him. Love how simple it is to switch dies in. :D So when this used one came up, I grabbed it. Have long liked and wanted one, as well as the Redding turret press, which would be nice to have set...
