I climbed in my stand well before daylight on the morning of Friday the 13th (Nov)..Settled in and immediately started glassing the lanes. I noticed a deer standing at the end of the lane but it was well before I had enough light to see it clearly. I watched a second, smaller deer walk in, so I...

Funny thing about my compadre's buck doc.. He actually got in trouble with the lease holder over that deer. We hunt a trophy hunting lease. It is his first year on the lease and he is still a little trigger happy. He killed a really nice 10 point his first weekend up, and a pretty nice 8 point...

I hunted with a buddy last week and he shot a buck with a 117Grain hornady SST from a 2506. I personally have not been a fan of this bullet in my 2506, but this one really performed well. This is the third buck he has taken with this combination this year and all have done well. This buck was...

Pat, +1 what Scotty said! I have a lot of respect for what you where able to do. First year, new land, do it yourself hunt... WAY back in the bushes... Congrats my friend. I am proud of you.

I'm with you Fotis... That doesn't seem like a lot of penetration. especially for an Elk.. MAYBE a whitetail.

I've ordered 1000's of them and will continue to do so.. I recently ordered some 30 cal ballistic tips and they came with a grey tip instead of a green tip.. I'm sure that the deer will not know the difference. Sometimes they may have a Cannelure that you may not be used to seeing. You should...

I recovered this 162 grain AMAX from a coyote this week. I shot him at about 100 yards. Almost straight on. It entered the left shoulder blade and I found it just under the hide about mid belly. It weighed 23 grains as found. Needless to say, It crushed the yote. His shoulder felt like soup.

+1.. My GoTo in the 35 Whelen.

It's good to see some deer starting to drop.. Keep them coming.!!

That is a fantastic story, thank you for sharing

QL says 2881. 50g RL17 16.5" Barrel.

162 amax out of my little 7-08. Found it in the 4th jug. Weighed 97.3 for 60% weight retention.

130 Grain Speer hotcore. 16.5" barreled 7mm-08.. I found this bullet in the bottom of the 5th jug....VERY surprised. 5 jugs is deep for a little 7. I shot this bullet out of my 7RM into jugs and it basically vaporized. It looks like at decent speeds it may be a good little performer. It weighed...

I ran a 120 BT out of my 16.5" barreled 7mm-08 today. It exited jug 3 and was stopped in between the third and fourth. It weighed 73.2 for 61% retained weight.

I have been using an RCBS Chargemaster for about 4-5 years. I once had an issue with it where when I pressed the "CAL" button nothing would happen. I spot check it periodically with bullets of known weights. I pressed the Cal button today and it worked fine.. I have no idea why? Then I realized...

Ran a 115BT into the jugs today. Found it in the bottom of #4. Expanded to .500 and weighed 56.2 for a total retained weight of 48.9# Not sure on the velocity. My chrono died and last night I cut 4" off the end of my barrel. I was just checking that it still shoots ok.

Fotis, Scotty is WRONG for a change... I did shoot the 64 BSB, but those holes were some 40g BT's. I mounted a different scope on my .223 and was just getting it zeroed back.

How long did they TELL you it would take ? Mine was ordered on 5-27 and I was told 12-16 weeks. I'm on week 13 right now!

Congrats on the new rig... I'm excited to hear how it does. I'm expecting one to show up for me in 4-6 weeks also.. SO I REALLY hope to hear good range reports.

Yes, Fotis, that is the one. My Chrono recently died.. QL predicted 2100 and change as best as I can recall. 45.0 grains of RL7. They are shooting around 1.25 - 1.5" groups at 100 yards .. I didn't measure them. Was just trying to get my zero correct.
