I do my best to eschew the politics section of the forum, but I'm glad I happened on this one. I think the M29 - that's the famous (infamous?) 600 yard mule deer gun, correct? If not, that's the one I intend.

If I may take a break from commiserating about the weather; I was looking at this picture and thinking how amazing that must look without that haze. It's a different kind of beauty than the Rockies, but still - makes me smile a little.

All - hate to do this, but publicly calling out a post on this page. If you look at the post which quotes mine, you will see that there is much more text in it than was in my original post. That added text includes a link to a pay-for-service website, implying my endorsement. No such...

Those are stunning photos. Looks like Guy has some real competition. :)

I own and have shot both cartridges, at least to a limited extent. In my two rifles, I actually feel less recoil with the 375 then I do with my Whelen, but perhaps that is just me and my sample size of one of each. Since you are hand loading, I really don't think it will matter one way or the...

Lived out that way for more than a decade - long time ago - glad you enjoyed your trip. Your story and photographs are amazing, and those fish make me want to go out and get my feet wet again. Congratulations to you all for your exceptional trip and massive success.

I'm not much of a believer in luck, so in the words of Ike - "Give 'em hell."

I'm sure you will find something you have confidence in.

I'm sure there are small batch manufacturers that make 375 Ruger with Nosler bullets. It will be expensive, but such is to be expected.

Clearly I need more range time. When are you due at Perry?

"I am apt to believe that it will be celebrated, by succeeding Generations, as the great anniversary Festival. It ought to be commemorated, as the Day of Deliverance by solemn Acts of Devotion to God Almighty. It ought to be solemnized with Pomp and Parade, with Shews, Games, Sports, Guns...

^^ This. Sure, maybe you could get 3k, or close to it, but would you really want to?

I tried the Idaho drawing one and all I got was a stick figure ;) Congrats! Yes, beef is expensive, elk is tasty, and you get to go hunting. Now I also want to be retired.

That's an additional 2 or 3 pounds you'll need to carry around, don't forget. Is there a particular reason you don't want the comp?

I've handled quite a few lever guns, but I'd rather stay away from suggesting brands and stick to cartridges, if I may. I don't think you could go wrong with any center fire rifle rounds, frankly, so if you like the idea of a 30-30, get one. I've personally known people who never hunted with...

Wish I could help on this, since it's a really intriguing problem, but the only thing I can think of is a difference in case volume causing a difference in pressure. But, if these are all once fired, that shouldn't be happening with such predictability between lots.

If only I live to learn such strength and grace.

I had to look that one up and it looks pretty interesting. I think that would make a fantastic trail gun, or as the name implies on the night stand. Not sure I would use it for concealed carry on account of the exposed hammer, but that's not an automatic problem. When the review is published...

I should try that. The leaving the bolt at home bit, I mean. I'd be much happier with my marksmanship and save a lot on ammo. :)

I've heard that the last UK game was played to a packed stadium. I suspect a lot of that is the novelty of it, but the NFL is making a concerted effort to expand into other markets.
