Guess we will have to plan another trip:)

300 Jarrett or 300 Arnold data will work

No immediate plans to buy a rifle but have committed to rebarreling the #1 257 Roberts. I’ll go with PAC NOR. I still day dream about a battery of #1A set up with all the cartridges spawned from the 06. That being said should I find a reasonably priced 416 Rigby with good wood I’ll probably snap...

When I sold my late Brother in Laws guns one was a Model 70 featherweight in 338/06. Still had the tags on it. I still lament not buying that one from my sister. Great cartridge.

That is a heck of an entrance hole, hate it when they slide down the ridge. The roads and horse trails are mostly on top, where we hunt. when they slide there ain’t nothing in the bottom but misery. You’ve been laying the wood to those deer since you got that rifle figured out. Well done.

Welcome aboard PV. I’m one of those who believes the ABLR is a bullet possessed by evil spirts, having little to no success with them. Scotty (SJB358) has been able to get them to shoot in a variety of rifles and cartridges. I have had great success with the traditional or original Accubonds...

Thanksgiving is the best of days…..

Folks keep stacking them up, well done.

I’ve tried to get the ablr to shoot in 6.5, 7mm; 308 (in three different cartridges), 338. Gave up on all. Conversely I have good loads in all those with the regular AB.

That looks great Fotis. The big 8 is a hell of a cartridge, with that bullet every thing everywhere would be in trouble.

My #1 is very accurate with 100 gr BT. Ok with 110gr Accubonds but they have been hard to find. The rifle really doesn’t care for anything 115 or higher. Best I can tell it is 1/10. She liked the 92 gr. Hammer as well. This particular rifle really only shoots the 100gr BT well, 3/4 moa...

I just looked at some of the Hammers, I might just go faster than I first thought.

Sending off my ruger 257 roberts for a new barrel, I never should have bought a bore scope. Anyway going to have PAC NOR make me a 257 AI. Looking at 6 months out. Want to be able to shoot the heavier monos perhaps. Thinking on a 1/8.5 instead of the standard 1/10. What say you all?

Damn thats quick.

During my career I was fortunate to serve as a firearms instructor. Early on I recognized that a single platform; Sig, Colt, Glock or Springfield was often not the best solution for everyone. Those in my chain of command did not share my perspective but through persistence we eventually had...

I appreciate it guys!

That’ll due right nicely.

Cancer update: When I left for Montana about two weeks ago my son in law was headed to Boise for another follow up on his cancer. When I got home tuesday I learned the test showed the cancer is back. They have recommended surgery as soon as possible. That will be early December we hope. They...

Well done, love that country though I’ve yet to hunt deer there. For a number of years we made an annual pilgrimage to SD for pheasants and such. Could not believe the numbers of deer we saw. Perfect looking bullet.

I’ll be in Tucson probably before Christmas. We were trying to leave before thanksgiving but things change. In any event I’ll get in touch and we can compare notes. I am also heading over in May. Get well soon.
