The only thing that I would add is that I would call the bullet manufacture and ask them for the recipe for there bullet with the powder that you would like to use. Personally, I have talked with technicians from Nosler, Barnes, and Swift bullets. They have always been helpful. Only once I...

Your grandson is one lucky young man to have you in his life. Good luck to the two of you!

I have been wanting to try my Glock 20sf. 11 rounds of 220 grain hard cast from Buffalo Bore at 1200 fps ought to be the ticket.

That rifle is a shooter and a beauty to boot. Well done!

So Dr. Mike, I am curious. Which powder charge do you work with? Or do you work with all three powder charges?

Thanks to all of you. I will let Melissa know. I actually had more fun watching deer work around the blind while she was in there than I did while I was in the blind after she was done. The look on her face when our children congratulated her was amazing. I can't wait till my children take to...

I have two pair of the Meindl and love both of them. I have been wearing them for the last four seasons. I have the Perfect for early season and the Alaskan for later season hunts. I highly recommend them.

This last weekend was archery opener in the sierras. My wife Melissa's third archery season, she was pretty wound up to get her first buck. During the first morning, she was covered in deer--7 bucks to be exact. Unfortunately they were behind her and she could not see them as the back window...

FYI the Snow Peak Gigga Power stove works very well as well. I have made four back packing trips with this stove and love it.

Excellent Guy. I had the opportunity to help initiate my wife's cousin. Just one year ago, while in college, this young lady was extremely liberal. Now that she has graduated, she has flipped the coin as the reality of the world has set in. I was very surprised when her father called me up and...

I agree with IdahoCTD. I would take them all out to the range. Hopefully you have a spot where you can shoot from field positions. I would take the one or two that you shoot the best at the ranges you expect to shoot. Good luck with your hunt.

Yesterday, I purchased a buck tag and two doe tags in area 24 for my wife and myself. Unfortunately, there is very little access. We hunt on a chunk of private property at a reasonable rate. This year though, the land owner has cut access and is only letting us hunt because I have hunted with...

Now that is a sexy rifle. Congratulations!

I have a Sako 75 in 300 WSM. This rifle has accounted for 3 elk, one black tail, and one wild hog. She is a finicky girl--only likes 180 grain bullets. But, she loves the 180 AB. Have never had a split neck or failure to feed. I have seriously contemplated a 7 WSM and a 325 WSM. If I could...

My wife has only minimally hunted big game and has only taken an antelope thus far. But that said, if she wanted to hunt dangerous game and put the time into shooting a big bore for the hunt as I am sure she would, I would not hesitate to have her back me up. My wife and I are both RN's in a...

These folks are at the SCI show every year. I have talked to them the last two years and have drooled all over their rifles. For a light rifle, they seem to balance very well. I believe they guarantee sub 1" groups and they state that the felt recoil for the magnum calibers is negligible...

+++1. Well said Dr. Mike

Thank you Dr. Mike. I have never hunted mulies before. All of my deer hunting has been for the black tail. My largest buck thus far was smaller than the 3x3 muley in the first picture. I am very much looking forward to October. I have nine days scheduled to find him or his older brother and...

Have not been able to post much lately. Seems that now that summer is in full swing, my wife and I are even busier with our four kids than we were during the school year :mrgreen: . This year I have drawn a much coveted X3a tag for northeastern Ca. I have waited five long years to spend my...

Thanks guys.
