    Oregon Spring Bear

    Going to try some jerky and some smoked backstraps on the Traeger Pellet Grill...I've never tried bear before, so it'll be an experience. After stories I've heard I was pleasantly surprised during the skinning/butchering process - granted, it was a spring bear but the smell was quite pleasant...

    Oregon Spring Bear

    Thanks, guys. As for the Sierra...it worked, but I'll be developing a load with a tougher bullet in the near future. I've been playing with the 200 grain Accubond, 180 grain Partition, 180 grain Tipped TSX, and some Nosler Trophy Grade 180 grain Accubonds...however, I can't keep any load...

    Nosler Custom Ammo 300 RUM in 180 AB, PT or 200 AB

    I had a chance to be in Bend this week and picked up two boxes of Nosler Trophy Grade 180 Accubonds for the .300 RUM...I didn't realize that they sold blemished/2nds on their ammo as well. Ended up getting the two boxes they had at $34.50 a piece! Now for the range, and hopefully a great...

    .300 RUM - Load Found

    Fair...Living in Oregon and only a few hours from Nosler's HQ, I continue to want their bullets to shoot. However, I just can't get them to shoot as accurately in my rifles, as other brands. Currently, I'm loading the Barnes TSX or TTSX in 5 of my rifles, all shooting under 3/4". The 200...

    Oregon Spring Bear Tag

    It takes one to two points to draw the tag usually. However, I drew one last year as well. Hoping to spot some bears this year. The success rate is only about 5%... The terrain varies from coastal creek drainages to clear-cuts in the Coast Range. Great time and excuse to get back out in the...
