Nice bear! Good luck to you and the new hunter , Guy! I wonder if the lady that was killed by the bear was feeding it or if it was just eating her cats food? Once you start feeding them they relate humans to food and become dangerous. Either way, we make sure we don't leave any catfood or...

A similar thing happen about 10 years ago here in our rural canyon of CA where we live, luckily no one was hurt. Our closest neighbor, a liberal of course, about 1/4 mile away was feeding a black bear catfood, when they stopped the bear ripped the door of their shed and ate all the catfood. I...

White River Energetics Large Rifle Primers Box of 1000 are available at Powder Valley, anyone ever use them or know anything about them?

Be careful, the design of the Absolute Hammer creates less pressure, you may hit pressure sooner with a Hammer Hunter. Start low and work up. I'm using RL26 with 90g Absolute Hammers in my 25-06, it's amazing.

True! There is still some reasonable priced powder around if we search. I have had a pretty good supply of powder and primers for years, but it doesn't hurt to add more. My shooting has not decreased at all in the last few years.

That is smoking, JD! I'm getting 3100 fps average with my 24" 25-06 with that bullet and RL26. Very accurate as well.

Congratulations Jim! Definitely a hunt of a lifetime and a beautiful bear, well done.

If I get drawn for AZ mule deer I'll use my 25-06 m70 with 90g Absolute Hammers or my 280 Rem. with 150g AB's.

That's why I don't let my wife look over my shoulder. Haha

Great write up and load work! The 180g AB is my go to load for my 300 wsm as well.

Congratulations on your hunt, glad to see the Hammers worked well for you.

Me too! And they accurate, easy to load and kill better than any other mono bullet I have ever used.

Wow, that was a close race! Way to go Catherine!

Have a good time and have a mint julep for me too!

Wow Vince, I just saw this! Prayers for a full recovery. I wondered why you never answered my emails.

My condolences. May the Lord wrap His arms around you and your family and comfort you. This brings back a flood of memories as I lost my Dad a few years ago.

PM sent.

I would agree, but with mine it's better at closer distance, like 100 yards! Might have something to do with my aging eyes🤣.

Don't have a 308, but my adult son has a 6.5 cm Ruger American and I have a 243 Ruger American for a truck gun, both are very accurate for inexpensive rifles. I've never shot factory loads through mine, but my son's shot slow with factory ammo, so I worked up a load for him with 120g BT'S. Good...
