Easterners would really hate how elk racks are counted in my area. We ignore the brow tines and only count one side. So a 5 X 5 bull is just a three point here.
I had a front stud screw come loose on a McMillian stock. I just unscrewed it, mixed up some JB Weld epoxy and put it in the hole. Then I screwed the stud back in the hole making sure to properly align it. I never had a problem after that. JB Weld is slow set epoxy. It takes about 24 hours to...
The combined technology bullets were designed by Winchester and Nosler and made by Nosler. They are modifications of Nosler designs and are very similar.
My friends and I have killed over 25 moose with 160 grain Accubonds from our 7mm Rem Mags. Over half were between 300 and 400 yards as we hunt open logging. They have never failed us yet.
If the brush doesn't work, an appropriate tap will. A 7/16 fine works for most magnums. Remove the bolt and us a ratchet, six inch extension, and the appropriate socket to turn the tap into the case. Be gentle. Then just use a cleaning rod through the muzzle to tap out the case. As the brush is...
I am sorry that some of you have had trouble with the Lacey Cabelas. Just north of Sportco are two Sportsman's Warehouses with better selection than Cabelas and no membership fee like Sportco.
This may have nothing to do with your groups, but i would lose the florescent orange targets. I know they are popular because they are bright, but the human eye has to fight to keep that color in focus. Ever notice that the target seems to pulsate? The best aiming device I have found is a two...
You remind me of my son who keeps trading guitars and amps. He spends a lot of money and comes out the worse each time. At least in this case all you will be out is the money. In my case I am perfectly happy with my 50 year old Rock Chucker. But darn that itch. It filled my safe with guns that...
You are going to have to do a lot of trimming before running a 308 case into a 300 Savage die. I suspect the resulting case capacity would be a hair less. Hornady cases are available from Midway USA and Midsouth Shooter's Supply. Good luck with the 300 Savage. I took my first four elk with one.
It is unlawful to hunt the same day you fly in a private aircraft. That is to prevent scouting form the air, landing, and shooting game; considered an unfair advantage.
I have killed some rather large moose for Southern BC, but WOW!
Many years ago I ground the handle off my Lyman Universal trimmer and turned the shaft down to a quarter inch so that I could attach any variable speed drill motor. Now you don't have to. Lyman and others make models like that. It saves a lot of work. But for someone who already has an old hand...
