Wow, that's a sucky time for ML. After the Orange Army has stomped around the woods for a week or two, the deer are skittish and often nocturnal. Here in KY, there's about a 3-week break between the end of rifle season and the beginning of ML. Allows things to settle down a bit.

Competition is a great thing in the marketplace. The Garmin will likely drop to the $400 range.

My rifle likes them just fine, lol.

But is it really a scam? The insurance adjuster still has to sign off on the claim, and then the company has to approve the work and payment.

When you say that the 85gr GKHP has been disappointing, do you mean performance on game, or accuracy-wise?

With my .243, I have taken deer with the 100gr Sierra GameKing, 95gr Nosler BT, and 85gr Sierra GKHP. With my loaner rifle, my young lady friend has killed 5 using the 100gr Federal Power Shock soft point. When my kids were young, they killed several using 100gr Remington CoreLokt.

Can't help you with the Rossi, but my friend has a Henry 44 mag and he kills deer regularly with it. Three this fall, IIRC. He's using 300gr XTP hand loads.

Make the first shot count. 😉

So, a little post-butchering update: The doe was quartering to at about 30-35 yards when I shot. The bullet smashed the left front shoulder, traveled diagonally thru the body cavity, passed thru the right haunch, and stopped under the hide on the right rear leg. I don't have the carcass to...

Christmas blessings to all my friends here.

Yes, she was quartering to.

Why not tenderloin??? 🙂

Yes, yes you do!! 🙂

Took a nice doe this morning with my .50 Hawken. I had the sights replaced 2 years ago with some Williams FireSights, and they really make a difference for these old eyes. 370gr Maxiball put her straight on the ground.

If a cluttered desk is the sign of a cluttered mind, then what's an empty desk a sign of? 🤔

Well, there's a difference between powder/carbon fouling and copper fouling. What he's saying is, clean the powder fouling and don't worry about the copper fouling. And yes, I never clean my rifles until after the season is over, either. And when I shot smallbore competition in college, we...

Let's stir the pot a bit. What say you?

Personally, I trim every time I load. With one of these devices, it's real easy and doesn't take long at all. After I resize, I just run it thru the stations on the prep center. Keeps everything uniform that way.

Just to be clear, the ones I mentioned were not seconds. I was just making the point that this price was better than you can usually get on the seconds.

This is the correct one, and it's still a very good price at $152, with free shipping. https://www.scheels.com/p/66112003156/?queryID=c3220221642ce768bfc5932b30c8307a
