    Elk bullet in 6.5x55 Swede

    This link is to an interesting article that compares hunting bullets in the 6.5 PRC cartridge. While this article is not about the 6.5x55 Swede, you may find some of the observations to be useful/relevant to your decision...

    Area 67. I'm a Wyoming resident so I bought the license over-the-counter. No points required.

    Elk Camp Etiquette

    Update! My hunt went well. I harvested this nice bull elk at 7:30 on my first day of hunting. I went with SNS Outfitters & Guides out of Casper, WY, whom I highly recommend. Hunter (his name) was my talented guide and I was teamed with a great hunting partner, Greg. My first shot at this...

    Norma Bondstrike - a compromise?

    I bought several boxes of 180 grain Norma Bondstrike to sight in my Winchester Model 70 in 300 WSM that I'll be using on an upcoming elk hunt. I initially bought this brand because it was relatively cheap (a great sale at the time of purchase) and I wanted to get comfortable and confident with...

    .338 Cartridges: What have played with? Which do you prefer?

    I like my 33 Nosler, but I'm glad to have opted for a long eye-relief scope. The recoil without a muzzle brake when shooting off a bench will catch your attention, which I don't mind, but I'm always wary of being "kissed" by my scope.

    Favourite cartridges based off the H&H Case?

    I have 4 of them... 264 Win Mag 7mm Rem Mag 300 H&H 375 H&H I'll go with 300 H&H for the win, in part because the rifle in which I have this cartridge is a real peach (Cooper Jackson Game with a Leupold VX6)

    .300 WSM….Is it a Dead Cartridge Commercially?

    But the 300 H&H is cooler ;)

    .300 WSM….Is it a Dead Cartridge Commercially?

    FWIW, Nosler loads 300 H&H 180 grain Accubond and 300 WSM 180 grain Accubond to the same 2950 FPS specs.

    Any Cooper rifle fans here?

    Thanks! 33 Nosler. As you might infer from my previous posts, I'm a fan of some out-of-the-mainstream calibers. Much to my chagrin sometimes.

    Any Cooper rifle fans here?

    Agreed. My favorite whitetail deer rifle is a Rem 700 LSS in 7MM SAUM. It's everything I want for the type of hunting I do with it. BTW, I just joined the .338 club (a formerly missing caliber for me) with a new Cooper Excalibur - a worthy candidate for my upcoming elk hunt. I (kind of) had...

    Any Cooper rifle fans here?

    I have some nice Brownings, Winchesters, and Remingtons. My Coopers are simply on a different level in terms of fit and finish, trigger pull, and accuracy. It can hard (not impossible - LOL) to justify the new prices I'm seeing from a purely rational perspective. But who ever said that buying...

    Any Cooper rifle fans here?

    I love my Cooper rifles! I'm fortunate to have gorgeous Model 52s in both 264 Win Mag and (my favorite rifle) 300 H&H. I've been thinking about adding another to my collection, but the new ownership there seems to have initiated quite the price hike. Rifles that retailed for around $3000 just...
