Several years back (crsnm) I killed the white-tail buck of my lifetime. With what?, a 30-06 Springfield O3-A3 as issued rifle. Really? A 30-06? Then why do I have a safe full of all this other stuff? The fine OLD 30-06, may it live on forever!

Put the bullet where it needs to go and you'll be eatin' fresh back-strap for supper. All the best,

A very bad lookin' sumbuck 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) :mrgreen: !

Any day spent with shotgun in hand and following your favorite dog, is a day well spent.

Another way to look at it; I shot a 350 B&C bull elk in NM and had it processed at the local Chama plant. They shipped it via UPS-AIR to my door in MO, in heavy styroform boxes at a cost of 165$. And I still have the shipping boxes. The cool part is, from freezing time in NM to my house in MO ...

Thanks Mike,

What Dan said, as most folks around here use Nikons, etc. I think the cost of stuff kinda goes with the area of the country thingy.

Anyone tried the RL-25 powder in .270WSM? I will get some in the near future, if theres any "likes" about it. The bullet of choice is the AB 140, shot from a Win 70. Thanks,

Just in time for the seasons. Good gift,

Sixty-6 gr. is MAX. in my new Win 70, 24". The rifle likes 64.0, well enough.

Update; Been to the range and here's a target results from the new Mod. 70, .270wsm Nosler AB 140 , 3 shots, 100 meters, 65.0/ RL22, WLRM primer. It'll do,

Dad always said, "Don't let life pass ya by." We are meant to enjoy our life here to its fullest. Go for it!

GGgggRRrrrWWwwwhew!!!!! Can you detect the envy in that? WOW, very nice. And thanks,

Thru the years, I have seen once-fired .280 brass at guns shows and even yard sales. Many times though, that brass, even when full-length resized, fits very tightly or not at all, in a different rifle.

Yup, I like the ol' 7x57, plenty of bullet wt. there. Or even a . 270, they handle the 140s pretty good also.

Boddington filmed a few segments of the shooting of heavy dbl. rifles at our gun club a couple of years ago. The mans a wealth of information, to converse with, so much experience in the field. We're lucky to live when he's also here.

For the most part, antelope hunts are fun. Then there's the windy, rainy, snowy, muddy, frozen everything kind of hunts. But no matter, you'll have a hunt you've waited all this time for, and I'm sure you'll enjoy every bit that it has to offer. Have fun,

Neat stuff. I've seen one in action and it works great. That model had its own receiving/viewing screen/receiver unit. Works like a walkie-talkie, with a button to see each shot and a 5,10 ,20 shot group screen. My pockets aren't deep enough for that unit, though.

I went after pheasants in SD a few years back, using my only real pheasant gun, my 1960s Superposed 2 3/4" 12 ga O/u. Great gun, I must say. Missed the first 2 cackling roosters that got up, but after that it was a fine day. IIRC, the loads were 1 1/4 oz. of #5 in the top barrel and 6s in the...

Big game calibers only? A .270 caliber A.300 mag. of some flavor And the mighty .340 Wby. Enough said (grins)
