Oh no, they all get taken to the range. Been reading a lot about what you can do to make them more accurate and still keep them eligible to shoot " as issued " matches. A local club has a match every month that i intend to start shooting. In fact I bought a new Dillon 550 press just to feed...

If only they could talk. Left to Right 1942 Springfield service grade. Rebarrelled in 1955. 1942 Springfield CMP Special, has a new Criterion barrel the rest a mix of GI issue parts. 1943 Springfield service grade. Rebarrelled in 1946. I found out this rifle was rebarreled by USMC after the...

Another nod for a 165 in the .308. My personal favorite, the 165 Ballistic Tip. I load them over H380, BLC2 and Varget. Have filled a bunch of whitetail tags with them over the years and have never recovered a bullet. Welcome to the forum and the wonderful world of reloading too.

I carry a Cutco clip point fixed blade knife and a Rocky Mountain pack saw for field dressing deer. All the skinning, caping and deboning I use a 4 inch bladed Rapala filet knife.

Good choice. Don't overlook the 140 BTs either

Awesome ! Gotta love a 264 and 130 ABs ! Nice buck and a great tale of the hunt. Thanks for sharing it .

My hunting rifles yes, one load with a good bullet for whitetails and the occaisional hog. They all sit in the safe with an elastic gizmo on the rear stock that holds 9 rounds of ammo. Grab it and go hunt, no searching for ammo ARs, all get fed the same load Benchmark and a 75 gr Hornady BTHP...

I'd also check with Jeff Bartlett at http://www.gibrass.com/ Usually has decent prices on powder and bullets

Nicely done ! Like most of the fellas here I have way more rifles than I need (don't tell my wife I said that though ) and the first rifle dad gave me was an Interarms Mauser in 06. I've killed a pile of deer with it over the years and so has my brother. The boring old 06 , and a 165 NBT. All...

:mrgreen: I know exactly what you mean ! Big whitetails elicit a triggered response both literally and figuratively.

Congrats, fine table fare there. LOL. I have killed one elk in my lifetime. I shot it 7 miles back in a wilderness area where vehicles are not allowed. Being 19 and a private in the US Army I couldn't afford to have someone pack it out with horses. Took me three days to get that elk down to...

Congrats ! You just got the hardest one under your belt.

Thanks all. Second biggest rack I've killed up there. Joel, antler restrictions ? I'm sure they'll help in the years to come. We've always had antler restrictions as part of our club rules though. The outbreak of blue tongue a couple of years back killed an estimated 40% of the deer herd in...

Congrats ! The first one is always the hardest. One of these days I too hope to take my first mulie .

Awesome bull ! Congrats !

Having lost our lease in Mo at the end of the 2014 season we had to find another one. Ended up on a new property that's about 15 miles SE of original lease. Most of it is cultivated ground, corn and soybeans with a few patches of timber and a small creek bottom on the SW side. I set my bow...

7RM. Why ? I'm not a 270 guy. Will never own one.

What's that creed from the Corps ? Improvise, adapt and overcome or something like that ? Good job guys. Great pics Scotty !

WOW ! Heckuva shot and a nice bull. Congrats to all !

Three shot cloverleaf at 100. Haven't shot it past that, had some minor surgery and can't shoot for another week or so.
