    Vmax bullets are just not working!

    I have always used the Vmax bullets (58gr) but recently have just moved to the 70 gr Nosler BTs to buck the wind and give me that extra hundred yards or so in the field without costing me too much speed. I have shot several coyotes between the eyes with the 58 gr Vmax with no exit wounds which...

    6MM Remington reloading

    6mm Remington - I don't think I will shoot my Elk with those this year. Scotty is busting my chops cuz I dumped a Monster Mule Deer with a 58 gr Vmax from my 6mm a couple years ago, took 5 whole steps and piled up! Unbelievable performance from that little bullet, I did cut his heart in half so...

    6MM Remington reloading

    Scotty, Lovin' the 90 gr Accubonds. Found a recipe that held 2 separate 3 round groups at 100 yards - tight enough to cover them with 1 dot on a shoot and see target. They have good speed +/- 3100 fps if I recall. I need to get out and stretch their legs and see how they perform, cant shoot all...

    6MM Remington reloading

    You'll like that 6mm on those Whitetails. Try the 90 gr Accubonds, I havent put them on a deer yet but I dont expect they will under preform. 58 gr Vmax are awesome for Coyotes, varmints or just target shooting, the 70 gr Nosler BT also shoot great. Good luck, you will love the 6mm cartridge -...

    Black coyotes?

    First picture in the snow looks to be a "Coydog" the other guy to get 3 in 1 outing!?!? Wow, something in the genes in that area that were mixed pretty heavily I would think. Black Phase coyote is pretty rare in normal breeding populations. Woodycreek I know you didn't shoot that thing, did...

    45-70 trapdoor

    We've had one in the family forever as well. My dad was the youngest of 8 and when the boys and their dad went hunting the last one out the door got to use the Trap Door! They would load it with .410 shells and after shooting it you would just pull out the brass - paper shells I imagine back in...

    NOPE...not even old service buddies are typical! Why start now?

    Lets see that one rifle...

    The Mauser is close. The Leopold mounts that were put in by the Gunsmith were loose so I am thinking that may have had "a little" something to do with my accuracy issues. The load I have seems to be solid...and by my load I mean the one you suggested and I probably tweaked a touch or 2. It was...

    Lets see that one rifle...

    6mm Remington...Yes that is chambered in 6mm. The bullet I was using was a reload, I preface the answer by I wasnt having any luck getting my 1903 Argentine Mauser chambered in 30-06 sighted in and wasnt feeling comfortable with that rifle so I had to take the "stand by" which was my M77. The...

    New Ruger but how old?

    The only true way to tell what year that rifle was built is to call them. Their call center people will tell you their Serial numbers are all over the board...its like Pirates Law. More of a suggestion than a real law. I have a low numbered 6mm and it doesn't remotely follow the structure on...

    2010 Hunting Pictures

    Little late getting to the Nosler Forum dance but... First day of the hunt, deathly sick, we find this buck and we are standing in ankle high grass as he runs out a draw chasing a doe. At first glance it looked "small", I could see the rack wasnt outside the ears 21" and the rack looked small...
