I’m a lefty

I was thinking 17 might be pretty good for the speed/pressure curve with the 338 WM. I was shooting my 275 rigby today getting ready for next year in Africa, maybe. 2950 with 140gr Accubonds pushed with 49.5gr. RL17.

3k and a 210ttsx would be a hammer for sure.

I’ve only seen coyotes out west, in my mind never a question due to coloration, conformation that it was a song dog. I’ve heard stories of of domestic dogs breeding with coyotes but don’t recall ever seeing such. I was curious of your thoughts as he was so dark. I’ve an uncle who ranched in...

Go find a clean pre 64 model 94 in 30/30 or 25/35 and never look back.

I saw something on this recently it appears to not be a simple process, takes quite a bit to get the old barrel out. Good luck

Got some domestic dog in him?

I need to get me some pasture poodle shooting, you guys make it look easy.

I recall attending a WSTOA training where the 5.7 were being demonstrated, late 90s early 2000 time frame. Impressive little cartridge and weapon system.

I admit I missed it.

Yes, very good.

Gotta find a 378 bee pic I just got from a friend, found it but I was wrong, a 375 pic. Don’t know this fella, his group arrived just before I left. I did bump into the buff however a couple of days earlier. Not sure how his nose got in the way.

I’ll need to pay attention when next I need some. I was in my LGS yesterday, noticed an apparent change to the cans of Kroil on the self. Didn’t think about that until now.

There are a number of rifles of nostalgic significance I have sold over the years. Most I wish I had hung onto. Glad you were able to get the 243 back.

Welcome aboard Can’t speak to the sauer specifically but I have loaded both bullets in a variety of 270s. Both bullets are very effective on blacktail deer and Roosevelt elk. For no logical reason I prefer using bonded bullets over monos but given the political winds in the Northwest I have...

I like football, use to anyway. I grew tired of the pros remained a great fan of college football and now with the current trends in college football, kinda giving up on that too. Regardless, we got nothing in this country that compares to Rugby in South Africa. Those folks are nuts. I had the...

I tried it in my 338 Jarrett, also came in around 2850. I couldn’t see a reason to give up the 250gr Accubond in my application. There is a significant body of evidence suggesting long heavy for caliber bullets at moderate velocity can be very effective. Currently thinking of K. Bell and his...

I asked my PH about the 7x57. Fantastic he said. Great cartridge. He thought I should bring my 7x57 and 375 next time. Probably will. I think that means I’ll be hunting Buffaloe and some plains game. :)

Discipline, training, practice regardless of cartridge or caliber become the three legged stool of the experienced hunter shooting effectively. The experienced hunter considers the shot going through the animal, the inexperienced hunter shoots at the surface he is given. What appears to be a...
