Would love to see what it can do with a 175 ablr. . .

You are lacking in the .284 family. I’m a huge 7mm-08 fan but if you are looking at the magnums, I suggest a 28 nosler or 7 prc. I agree on a .375 but if you don’t have Africa in your sights. I can’t justify that one My old rem 700 bdl in .300 wm is one of my favorites-has served well from...

Since you mentioned Bell and his African wandering-I have taken kudu (for example) with both .30-06 and 7mm-08 (7x57 equivalent.) Bullet placement and understanding anatomy are much more important than calibers and bullets. My pet load uses IMR 4350 but it looks like you don’t have it or can’t...

Happens in every state-I’ve seen it for sandhill cranes and swans and cougars. The wildlife divisions have their hands full-managing humans, not so much animals

I just now saw this post. I’m happy to see your load is within 1/2 grain of mine-so I must be doing something right with the AFrame. Since it was mentioned, Imr4350 is my go to for the 180 AB which my .300 wm loves. Hope you can add some pictures this fall hunting season-maybe not moose sounds...

I was hesitant to apply for this tag this year because I already had Africa to look forward to. Thought about saving my antelope points for next year so I had something to look forward to then as well. I’m hoping instead that next year one of my daughters will draw, I know where to go and...

Had three days scheduled for a Wyoming antelope hunt. Then a funeral scratched a day and then there were two. Kids stuff intervened and then it was one. . . Two of us killed bucks with no trouble. My buddy killed a taller one than mine but still pretty shape. I passed a dozen that looked...

I’ve had excellent success with superformance powder and the 165 ab (my brothers Rem700 .30-06 rifle)

I assume your rifle will shoot them accurately and curious at what velocity you might be accurate with them. From what length barrel- My problem is that the velocity doesn’t take advantage of the bc of the Accubond and closer in, there are better options. So it is imo not the best for closer...

Suspect taken into custody last night. Someone close to him turned him in. I was disappointed that trump made the announcement-should have been the people that actually did the legwork.

Check with your state game dept to clarify.

The impala would have looked cool in a group mount with my previous rams-I should’ve planned for that Game4Africa helps support a local Orphanage. But you can’t just drop your dead animal at the front gate and consider it a good donation. You CAN take it to the butchery. Have it cut, wrapped...

Little pig showing the exit wound. He went a long way with his heart literally shot to pieces.!

After one of my favorite lunches-wildebeest lasagna, we went out for one more walk. I don’t know if it’s actually wildebeest. And I think the secret ingredient is brown sugar. But I really love that stuff. The meat is very similar to beef, maybe more flavor. I don’t remember ever eating...

We had one more day with the cameraman but I was out of money for more animals. We didn’t want to waste a day or the opportunity at more film. So myself and ph Wik did some math and he offered me a couple options. Cull animals are free, but hard to come by since everyone wants to shoot them...

Are there alfalfa fields near timber where you live? While bowhunting in August in several states I have seen them in the fields during big game hunting hours. Never tried it but I believe you could bait them or at Minimum use a trail camera on a salt block. . . ?

I have an M48 and I love it. My opinion is give him that rifle and if HE wants to upgrade or customize then he can do it at his own disgression. He should love the fact that you gave him a rifle in the first place!

I have a very similar pre 64 in .30-06-these are very good rifles, built to hand down to the next generation again and again. The flat metal butt plate is a kicker, but I’ve never bothered to replace mine. I did refinish the stock on mine. They are great pieces of Americana, I hope someone...

I have a rifle tag for mule deer and another for antelope. Will use my 28 nosler and 175 gr ablr’s or my .300 wm and 180’gr AB’s. I’ll have the 7mm-08 with 150 ablr’s in the truck in case I think I can use it first. Will just have to see how things play out

Daisy red Ryder than later a crossman 760pellet gun. I had to pay half of the pellet gun which was a good lesson. Marlin .22 bolt action with open sights. Harrington and Richardson 20 gauge single shot shotgun-killed my first duck, pheasant and quail with that gun. .30-30 marlin lever action...
