Used the 180 gr NP and the 165 AB before going lead-free a decade ago.
The NP was very aggressive on our small roe dear, love the AB.
Now I use fragmenting (just the from) copper and brass with the 30-06; and the Breedmoor.
I only owned a 8x57;IRS - the rimmed version - in a Drilling.
Sold it to buy my now Ex a gun.
What a bad choice...
But loaded and tested 8x57 IS and 8x68S and boy - I love the 8x68S!
Very underrated.
With a 200 gr Accubond it did well on plains game.
Hard to get one as a lefty, though.
I am...
Well - see my nick...
Since I had to go lead-free in some areas and did so full time, I should change the name.
But I killed my first game with the NP and we'll - it did the job
Jeeeezzz.
And we are hoping that you will be there when we need you (while we should have made sure that we are able to protect ourselves).
I wish you and your country all the best.
I hope that you can figure things out without a second civil war. I see that it might not be easy, but from...
Hm. If this was planned - would you pick a guy who wasn't let into the school shooting team because he was a bad shot?
No idea what motivated him. But I guess it was bad wiring in his head and that's all there is.
I am really sorry for Matt (demolition ranch, YouTube) because that guy wore one...
Good thing he didn't act like a real sniper.
223 center Mass with a good bullet would have ended President Trump.
I am not a great fan I have to admit.
But your future should be decided by voting, not bullets.
I hope it gets you closer, not closer to civil war
Wow.
It is reaching a new low.
Can we agree that the shooter was an idiot from all the accumulated knowledge here? First for trying to shoot a president.
Second for not being able to.
I know we are hunters here. But would you have missed the shot? With all we could pack?
I hope he burns in...
I can honestly just hope you are not heading for that civil war some seem to want.
I have been to the US a few times.
My company has business ther.
And I never met someone I couldn't talk to.
Sure I don't understand all of your background, your culture.
But so far, I met reasonable people.
I...
Hi all,
Since I am an ocean away I don't comment anything or give an opinion.
But it seems to be heating up on your side.
Treats against the judge, calls for a million armed to march on Washington, ...
Whatever happens in the USA will have major influence on the whole world, so we watch with...
As usual - Tikka varmint 30-06 for driven hunts (barrel is getting old...) and Savage Storm 6.5 CM for the rest. LOS Hunter in 30-06, Lehigh controlled chaos in the CM.
Both LH.
Our normal Game is smaller than yours and the distances are shorter.
If I do my part, game is down.
NP
Agreed - Commander (I think that's the name?) should not run free in public.
Shepards can be wonderful dogs, if they are from a good line and trained well.
Where is Guy talking about old Betsy?
Really liked the video on UR
My first hunting rifle was/is a 30-06 Tikka. The barrel is on it's last leg, but I use it for driven hunts. Could use it for other things too I guess.
I am thinking about re-barreling it, I have enough loaded ammo to last for...
