    2014 Mule Deer

    Hi Sask Boy, we were south of Maple Creek, and just to answer a couple other questions at the same time I think this buck would be 4.5 to 5.5 years of age just my guess. Yes it really was minus 27c last Friday morning. the old record was minus 24c for the same date. Thankfully it's warmed up

    2014 Mule Deer

    My son took this buck on the last day of the mule deer season. He was using my 300 RUM and 150 gr TTSX bullets. My son spotted the buck about 3/4 mile away and we watched him bed and get up and bed again for about an hour. Once we were confident he would stay down we stalked to about the 200...

Velocities for both bullets ranged from 3125 with the 95 grain charges to 3265 with the 97. grain charges of...

No stiff bolt lift, no pressure signs on the case at all. Now I am going to try and find some new brass of any manufacture and...

    SWAROVSKI Z5 vs Z3

    My friend and I went out to shoot some steel at what is long range for us. My 300 RUM is topped with a Swaro Z3 3-10x42 and my friends 300 RUM is topped with the Z5-3-18 w BT.

    King of the .30's

    My vote is for the 300 RUM. Just like JD338 said earlier you can load the RUM down but you can't load the smaller 30's up.

    Well who is spring bear hunting this year?

    Looks like my cousins daughter still is looking to get a bear with her bow. I will give them a hand putting out some bait and keep tabs on it for them.

It has taken numerous black bear, whitetail, mule deer, beavers and coyotes. Some of the best groups I ever shot were with the...
