What a great adventure!😎 And some great shooting too!(y) (Nice to have been able to take a rifle with sentimental value on your hunt and out it to great use adding to its memories for you and your late friend.) You should be happy with it as it does a good job of capturing some great moments of...

Watch your moon phases too...it will also provide peak hours for animal movement that can help you plan your hunting day.

You could also try a PAST recoil pad. They have shoulder rigs to wear this, or there are some shooting shirts/jackets designed to put these in the garment to wear when shooting, whether at the range or in the field. Replacing the factory recoil with a LimbSaver is also an option that can make a...

I have used the high shoulder shot effectively for years where I need to anchor the animal in its tracks to keep it from getting into rough/steep/deep terrain that will make extraction more difficult. Note, that this is not my preferred shot placement...I still prefer the double lung shot to any...

I would love to do a trip to Zambia for all 3 species of Lechwe (black, red and Kafue)and a sitatunga! It is more expensive to hunt there, and if I had to pare it down, the black lechwe and sitatunga would be my first priorities.

So we finally sold our tractor, which I am using the proceeds to pay for the African safari! Although, due to some other expenses, and other purchases we needed and wanted to make, I am shortening the trip to Africa on this safari to just the one excursion with the outfitter (Koranna Mountain...

Just curious... Did anyone find any good Black Friday deals? I think I did OK on this one... Got a Leupold VX-6HD 3-18x50 w/ Illuminated B&C reticle for 30% off! I went to the LGS a couple of weeks ago to pick up this scope as their website listed them as having one in stock...only they could...

As much as I love my 358 Wins, the 338 Federal definitely has some advantages over the 358. (I have bolts and levers in both chamberings.) Better velocities, for flatter trajectories, and better retained energy a little further out there.

The only way to know for sure is to try them in your rifle... As above, the regular AccuBond shines in many rifles, calibers and cartridges, while the ABLR can be rather finnicky. While I have not tried them in all of my rifles, to date, the best performance has been in my 6.5 PRC shoots the...

I wish Browning would come out with tht X Bolt Gen 2 in Left Hand! I would love a LH Mountain Pro Tungsten 24" in 25 Creedmoor!

While my game taken with the 338-06 and the 215 gr SGK is limited to one black bear at 120 yards, and it was a complete pass through, I cannot comment on its expansion and weight retention. All I know is that the bear did not go far, and expired quickly. No complaints here with an initial...

I know that I am enjoying both of mine! And both have taken game! I'll back her up with my 9.3x62, just cause I want to use it on a buffalo, and if needed will provide more stopping power than my own 338 Federal.

My daughter has decided that she wants to hunt buffalo! And her husband was thinking she needed a 300 Win Mag (his favourite cartridge). (So this one is not for me! LOL) As she is somewhat recoil sensitive, I suggested the 338 Federal, (larger diameter bullet, good energy at reasonable...

On the rifles I have loaded IMR4350 in most proved to pretty accurate...and in a few, it was as far as I went in powder choice as it worked so well right from the start. You won't know until you try it in your rifle...

Susan and I headed to the mountains today to take our new Ski-Doo (Expedition LE 900 ACE R) for its maiden voyage and see if any mature rams had moved in to breed the local herd of ewes. Lots of tracks but no sightings today. Lots of caribou tracks too...and did spot one lone bull bedded in the...

Looks like a lot of the ladies are having a great hunting season! Great to see! Congrats to all!

Got out with Susan today for the last day of moose season. Only saw a cow about mid-day. And just before dark we did locate a mulie buck and was able to stop him with a couple of grunts...but he was just a forkie and not legal. Still have a couple of weeks of deer season left so hopefully we...

Bergara's barrels have a good reputation, and yours may be faster than other barrels in 30-06. And reloading guides are just that: guides showing SAAMI standardized data for typical performance in the specific barrel the manufacturer used in their testing. E.g. I have a 7MM STW with a 24"...

Try checking everything over to ensure all screws are tight (action, rings, bases, etc.). And then if you have some ammo with a cup and core bullet, try that. Some rifles just do not like mono metal bullets. If still having issues, try a different scope to ensure that isn't the issue.

Sounds like an elk harvester to me!
