Anybody use W748 in a 308? I have about 20 pounds of it that needs to get burnt up.

I have a 357 Max in both a 10 in T/C and a Dan Wesson. They both shot 358 180 grain rifle bullets good. Worked well on Sitka Blacktails. Still working on my getting 25 posts and being off probation :)

Despite having 2-3 full gun safes I am pretty sure it would be the same thing it has been for the past 40 plus years. 35 FN Whelen with 250 grain Hornadays. I know there are a zillion better this and that but my old Whelen just kills what it is aimed at so why change?

Red hair blue eyes might be good you are a regular shooter;)

If you are thinking of Alaska you need a 20-30% uptic in wages to offset the costs of living here.

Have you been happy with that scope? I keep thinking a 1x6 would be about right for my Whelen. Eyes are not good enough to use peeps any more.

Yep still here. I live over looking the mouth of the Kasilof river. Been in this area since 1963

Hate to say it but if you can drive to a place for salmon fishing it will be over crowded and fishing will most likely suck. At this point I do my fishing from a boat in the ocean. But then I admit I am spoiled growing up on K-P in the 60's and early70's

Thanks for the info guys. I guess I will need to be more chatty:)

Quick question, how many posts do I need to get off of limited status?

Thanks for the relies. I went to both sites and learned a lot.

I don't have either one but am thinking of giving both a try. Will most likely go on a 6.5 or a 30-06. What brands/styles of each do you guys like best. And if I get one in 308 can it be used on the 6.5 also? I am pretty sure some of you have used them and will know far more than me so this is...

I seem to have forgotten my password. How do I go about changing it and not risk getting locked out. I had a heck of a time getting an account set up when I first joined and do not want to go through that again.

Well the good news is you just about a 30% raise. Dang spendy to live in Alaska. If the wife had agreed I would have bought a second home in NM a few years ago.

My dad had a small gun shop so I had my choice of what to hunt with. On every hunt but one since my dad built me my Whelen in the mid 70's in has been what I carried. Moose, Caribou, deer, Black or Brown bear it was the one. The one time I did not take it sure enough I ran nose to nose with a...

Picture is Big Nan and Old Ugly side by side.

I think the 375 must of been the choice for the old guides on the rock. I am the current owner of Hal Waugh's Big Nan. His claim was no bear ever needed more than one dose of Nan. Mr 458 seems to have his heart set on talking me out of it but family members have other ideas .................so far.
