I lost a four point mulie a few years back, when the bullets first came out. I was using a .30-06 with 165 grain SST's. The shot was on the front shoulder, and the buck was last seen two ridges over from where I shot him, going strong, by a hunting partner of mine. It made me sick to lose...

It's totally different than anything Leupold currently does, but the glass is probably most similar to the Rifleman. This is Leupold's way a getting into the cheaper market, while still having a quality scope, and not diminishing their brand, from what I hear.

Had a chance to stop in at the Leupold factory yesterday and got a look at the new Redfield scopes being made in Oregon, by Leupold. They're going to be a great addition to this price range of scopes. They have a lifetime warranty, look great, and will cost around $130. I was also able to...

I was using a Browning A-Bolt...
Glad to see some credit being given. The TSX is an amazing bullet. I've had quite the time finding a load that my .257 WBY Mag and .338 Win Mag would shoot well. I've settled with the 115 grain and 225 Grain TSX's. Both are shooting under 3/4" at 100 yards, and performance on critters is...
Thanks, guys.
Hunter Jim, I'm sure you're aware but the area east of Roseburg had some pretty large burns this summer. The areas around Steamboat Lodge were really hit pretty hard.
I've hunted that general area for elk for quite a few years. There are definitely some nice blacktails down...
