.257 Roberts, 7-08, & .30-06 are kings for me. For everything.

Based upon the speed of what hasn't worked I'd go faster. I'll be trying the new IMR-4955 (enduron 4831), IMR-7828SSC, and Ramshot Hunter in mine when I finally get her out.

I've had excellent results from the 90 gr NBT but the 95 gr is pretty awesome from what I've heard.

Leupold shipped a VX3 3.5-10mm 40mm Plex/CDS for this rifle; got a box of 130 VLDs & of Prvi Partisan 25-06 brass also. Gonna load and plan to shoot it next weekend!!!!!

Thanks Mike! My nephew has never been hunting and a lot of his "firsts" (camping, fishing) have been with me. My oldest son (14) and my hunting partner (who also is my partner teaching 5th & 6th grade Sunday School) both have buck tags, and it'll be my hunting pard's first western hunt. We're...

In addition to the stock that Dave gave me I got a much less racy Walnut one from GB that I stripped and refinished but when I saw this it looked "vintage" and nicely suited to a Springfield for some reason. Thanks everybody for the compliments! I am taking my nephew out for his first to...

Got too many new 06 family stuff lying around to want to buy new...

Thanks gentlemen I appreciate the compliments! Thanks especially to David who enabled the heck out of this addict as I thought trough this build. I'll post up more pics once glass is mounted and some loads are worked up. Trying to decide what brass to use as I reload for a buddy with a 25-06...

I bought a Remington-built 03-A3 here from 6mm Remington a few years ago as the basis for a custom. This past Friday I pick up the finished product from the smith on the way up to trout camp. After I bought the action the first thing I did was buy a milled bottom metal/trigger guard. I had it...

I've gone to the 168 myself but wouldn't turn my nose up at a 165 for even a second; they're both KILLERS! Nice buck!!

Found pieces an inch or so away from one another right under offside hide. This was a coup de grace double shoulder shot from about 100 yds on a bedded deer. Never chrono'd the load but its 46 gr Hunter & LRM primer are just under max for the Bob so guessing 3k-ish impact speed? Jacket 41.7...

That's my "one load to kill them all" for NA big game. I use WLRM primers & RP cases in a long throated rifle:

Heck yeah that sounds like a great time! Also sorry you didn't get anything; that's a darned nice buck! Maybe he'll be there next time?

Wow beautiful buck Lynn!

South Dakota whitetail buck Pennsylvania whitetail buck Both taken in2016, both 9 points, both DIY public land areas I'd never hunted, both were (at the time I shot them) the biggest racked deer I've ever shot. That South Dakota buck is still the biggest bodied deer I've ever shot.

That's one heckofa welcome home right there dang!!! Congrats to the both of you; him on a great buck and you on having your son back with you! I've always thought it said a lot about parents when their kids want to be near.

Dang man so sorry to hear about all your hardship & loss family-wise that is a lot to have to face. Sorry to hear about your scope also, but looks like the pinch hitter was up to the task! Congrats!!

I've heard that the best elk are those closest to the road. Congrats!

Dude nice buck!!!! Cool story also; glad the loss of the old place presented a good opportunity for you!

Congrats that is awesome! Like Mike said firsts are big and nothing at all wrong with s doe they're great eats!
