This is what I use.
Caldwell not sure the name just their shooting bags.
I’ve had them for years, and they work well for me.
The only problem I’ve had with them is one winter I had them in my garage and some mice eat a hole in the bottom corner of the large front bag.
Had to sew it shut as you...
I have a Williams fool proof sight on my 1980 model 94.
I’m not sure if the difference in the two years would allow you to use this set up on your rifle or not, but I’m really happy with how these sights work for me.
I didn’t have to change or alter my front sight either.
I use different sized...
I found this, this morning. Couldn’t find it yesterday. 🤦🏻
The first picture is a 150 grain Accubond I recovered, frontal shot from a 30-06 at around 100 yds, DRT.
The Doe was harvested with a Accubond from my 308 at about 40 yds. Traveled back about 40 yds when she expired.
You can see the...
I’m surprised no one had mentioned the solid based bullets offered by Nosler.
In my estimation they would most likely be similar to rem coreloks.
I would recommend as someone else had the Accubonds. I have shot these both out of my 30-06 and my 308 with great success.
I’ve killed many NC deer...
My Tikka has the ability to change grips.
I have the grip that came with it, (normal angle) and I purchased a vertical grip to replace the original.
The vertical is good when shooting from a rest at the range, but while carrying in the field it is not so good.
So, after the first day in the...
My Brother In-law has a 99 chambered in 30-30.
Shoots very well.
I’m more of a Model 94 guy when it comes to lever actions however.
Would love a 73 in a pistol caliber, maybe someday…..
My rifle loves the 150 grain Nosler Accubonds and 46 grains of Varget.
It also shoots the 130 grain Barnes ttsx’s with 50.4 grains of TAC.
Of course you’re going to work up to your loads on these with caution, but these have done very well for me and my .308.
If it were me personally, I would get all the measurements, (COAL, CBTO, and even weigh them) from all the cartridges, and then shoot them.
In a day where components are increasingly more expensive, why waste the bullets, powder, and primers, when you can enjoy a day or so at the range.
Plus it...
We’ve hunted in eastern North Carolina (Greenville) a couple times and are going back this fall.
I know the deer per square mile is high compared to where I hunt here at home in CNY.
I don’t know what that number is in western North Carolina.
I do know that they are much smaller than our deer.
I...
