I picked up a S&B 3-18x42 Meta today. Was over visiting a customer, stopped in a EuroOptic just to kill time. It was $200 off so I grabbed it haha. Came home with a new scope and a new knife. The warden asked me how much it was and all I told her was $200 off the scope, I saved so much the...
HAHA, I have a supreme but really like these. I was talking to the warden (my wife) about grabbing another just the other night, then this post showed up on my feed.. i was really shocked when I looked at it and it was dated March 2024 haha
I'm loving my 6.5 PRC's as well! What load do you have in yours? Here is mine;
140g Accubond
Peterson Brass
WLRM Primer
H1000 - 56g
Seated .050 off the lands measuring CBTO
This load has been amazingly accurate for me and those AB's are some of if not my favorite projectile to run
I got...
Thanks for the details. I've been in the camp of double lung/heart shot since the early 90's. Some deer you track, some you don't, some drop in their tracks. The smaller Texas deer I grew up on, I didn't seem to track often at all. The brutes up here seem to run more often. I've never known...
I hear the 760's are not made as well as the 7600's. A lot of people have told me to stay away from them. Aluminum parts, lose fitting, rattles. What's your experience here?
I have recently found an affrication to the 7600. I typically like to drive deer with a lever fun of sorts... but my cousin picked up a 7600 carbine in a 30/06 this summer at an estate sale for $450. I shot it during bear season and fell in love. I went on the hunt myself.. would like a 35...
My central PA buck is in the books for the year. Was fantastic getting him because it was my daughters first year staying at camp to hunt with me and the gang. She toughed out a couple hunts trying to get her on a buck, did some cold sits and this particular morning sat in some heavy snow with...
Thank you very much for this. I am going to try this shot this season on a doe. I had to track my buck this year and a 30 yard sprint turned into two hours of tracking, 5,811 steps because I walked by him twice and never seen him haha.
That's a great buck! I hunt WV up in the Mt Storm area. Not every year, but often. Some of the guys that work for me out of our Clarksburg branch invite me out to hunt and stay at their camp from time to time.
I play with primers last in load development. I have seen tighter or wider groups by switching it up. My two favorites are Fed 210GM and Winchester Large Rifle Magnum. Most of my loads got tighter groups when going from 210GM to WLRM. Build some loads in different primers and see what your...
I've heard about this high shoulder shot. What zone exactly are you aiming at? I've looked at some videos online but nothing specifically outlines where you should aim. I understand if you are too high it's non lethal and there is a zone between typical vital shot and the high shoulder zone...
