    Restocking my old Model 70.....

    Thanks to all! I will post some pics when I get it all lashed togeather! Should match up to my 150th Anniversary real nicely? Here is that stock for comparison: Should be easy to pick the right gun to take, either taking the "red pad" or the "black pad". LoL. :grin: 6mm; No probably won't...

    Restocking my old Model 70.....

    The first year Winchester came back out with the old control feed ( pre 64) bolts, 1989 I saw one at a show and snagged it, SS in 30/06. They referred to my model as the ATR with black composite stock. I used it for nearly 30 years all over North America and it performed flawlessly. Recently I...

    Coyotes

    We are up to # 10 and still trying to get a dozen! With any luck we should make it by ice out, April 25/ May 1st. They have had very prime fur this winter. But we definitely have the herd thinned out! Couple friends that get fur from us.

    Noslers new 90gr Varmageddon??

    Well they just keep on coming! With the help of a couple of eagles, we did find the run off from last post! Then shot a double week before about an hour apart. Male that came back to female. So that was 8, then last Sat we got a last year's pup, #9. And late yesterday right at dark another...

    25 Cal. 115 BT's Differences

    OneShot. It's not really bashing to have enough b+lls to bring it up. I think most of us have been very loyal to Nosler for decades. I certainly was. And this subject has nothing to do weather Nosler makes good bullets or not. They DO. I am sure many folks on here feel the same way we do, But...

    25 Cal. 115 BT's Differences

    Shade Tree, Your comments are very accurate description of how most folks with common sense would look at how Nosler is actually "shooting themselves in the foot" with this ridiculous marketing technique that they can get folks To believe a Nosler Ballistic Tip is worth double what the Compition...

    25 Cal. 115 BT's Differences

    Quite a variance in them for sure, not sure what that's all about???? Not sure what Harvard MBA, explained to them to package their product in a fancy box but only put half as many in the box???? But can tell you this much............. They have never sold me a box of 50, and never will. I shot...

    Weatherby ultra lightweight 338/06

    Nice find. Baby brother to the 35 Whelen with 10x better bullet selection. Great caliber for Moose or Elk, and though I know your a Magnum guy, There is not a Grizzly Up there, that can stand being hit with that 225gr Partition If you put it where it counts! Congrats on your new rifle. The new...

    Noslers new 90gr Varmageddon??

    Well the 90gr Varmagetton bullet is now at 5 , all instantly killed, even though a couple were not hit perfectly. So it's certainly looks like we have a great load for big Maine Coyotes. We had shot 4 earlier in Jan with our 25/06 so with a total of nine , and about 3 weeks left of good ice, we...

    .270, 165 grain Announced!

    Nice! My Sako Finnlite will hold 5 of the 150gr ABLR in 2" at 300yds. I bet it would shoot these new 165gr just fine. They must have a crazy high BC ????

    Found me a donor

    Scotty, You are cracking me up! Like you need another project.... LoL. Your wife must be a saint??? Ah honey but I really really need this gun to shoot a cow elk if it's between 550 and 575 yds. If it's over 625 I will just use one of my other Custom Magnums in a unique "improved" caliber only...

    Noslers new 90gr Varmageddon??

    It is Scotty, get a box and try em in the Sweede! I think you will be pleasently surprised. It is a full step up the ladder from my .243W at 300yds. You can hear it off the side of the coyotes. It is noticable in the report that comes back it is hitting with more authority! It is still NOT quite...
