My son and I each purchased properties in rural Idaho- He is my only neighbor within 3/4 mile. Sold our homes in town and commute about 1 hr each way for work. The wives love the peace and quiet and all the critters. Still living in the shop and trailers until 2022 when we can build. This...

One of my buddies has this exact gun. It shoots 70gn BT EXTREAMLY well. 90s are good too. It is in a HS-Precision Stock.

I know this is an older thread but aligns with my topic. As in previous post I have a G40 with Optics and KKM barrel. I picked up a G34 and tried to get is as close as I can for practice for the G40. That works well. I now have a G20 for woods carry instead of the G34 with the optic. I...

Excellent !! Great to see kids getting the opportunity.

Very Nice Blacktail !! I hunted them for over 20 years and one of the toughest deer I've hunted. Bucks just do not go out into the open, mostly around the edges. That's a buck to be proud of.

Very Nice!

I know the feeling - I have two - Savage 116 and a CA Ridgeline.

Excellent !! Very nice buck too !!

My old 28Nos shot like that too. Its going to my son's friend as a Xmas gift from his wife. I have Ridge line on order in a 28 to replace it.

I'm not too technical... I use torch and socket that's just wider then brass and no longer then half length. cordless drill rotating slowly... about 2 -3 revs and drop into bowl of water. I've done mostly WSM WW brass and 243W. This in the past is what in shot the most. Now it's the 243 and...

Very NICE !! My 6.5x284 in a Ridgeline shoots great but not like that. Great load and shooting.

We have taken many Whitetail with the 100gn PT, 95gn BT, 90 BT and AB. No concerns with these bullets on deer. My favorite is the 95 BT.

WOW !!! I Don't think so !! Maybe tell him you'll throw in a bag of 10 brass too. Hopefullly that is a typo.....

I like it ! I too use a 243W with 90AB and 95BT for similar purposes.

Our Local SW has an empty parking lot since they have no inventory. My guess is to be closed down by end of '21

Never hunted them myself but what a way to spend the day with family. Excellent !!

My opinion - for most hunting situations - no. I like the 7mm bullet, but I also have a few in 30 cal too. Deer and similar game won't tell the difference in "normal" hunting ranges. For larger game - elk - a 180gn 30 cal is hard to beat but if I was to try it would be the 175gn 7mm.

There you go. That's where I'm at. Good comments above from many. Elk and Deer where I hunt don't stand there after the first shot so to say I can put the second shot ..... I'm like most everyone - strive for the smallest group with in reason. Couple of guns can make one hole and couple are...

Fav Elk Rifle .... When I'm getting serious about filling the tag I carry my Sako 85 Finnlight in 300WSM. A Swaro sits on top. Before the 85, I carried a Sako 75 in 270WSM and these two guns just fit so well. I can shoot the Finnlights with out much effort. I'm suprised I don't have a pic at...

No Doubt! 100 PT and 95 BT is what we load in our 243's. Can't go wrong.
