Any suggestions from experience?
Been considering Barnes, Swift Aframe, Hornady MonoFlex and FTX, and Precision Rifle's Dead Center. Wish Nosler had a Partition...just wondering if the Ballistic Tip ML bullet will do the trick.
My wife would like me to come home safe and in one piece. :)
I'm planning to hunt Elk and Mule Deer here in a few years and would like input about hunting the Bob and any reputable outfitters that you would recommend. It can also be in the Scapegoat and Great Bear too.
Many thanks,
Paul
I am going buying a new rifle (thinking about a Model 70 Winchester) and am considering a .243 or a 25-06.
I will NOT be hunting anything larger than Mule Deer. I also like to punch paper.
Suggestions on manufacturer, caliber and barrel length would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks,
Paul
I am struggling between a 270WSM or 30-06. I have decided to buy a Tikka left handed and put a Trijicon Accupoint scope on it. Other than hunting, I enjoy playing with new loads and spending time at the range.
Here are the animals I would most likely hunt with it: Black Bear, Pronghorn, Mule...
JD338 asked me to report on the 2011 DSC Convention.
I attended yesterday, the opening day. It was the only day I was be able to go. Attendance is usually lower on Thursday, which is the reasons I go at that time. It is much easier to talk to folks and get questions answered. That being...
I would like to get opinions of the Model 700 Remington. I am considering the SPS and shoot left handed and want a bolt action.
Back in the 70's and 80's I owned a couple of them and they were excellent.
Many thanks,
Paul
Would those that have used this bullet, please share your thoughts and experiences?
Especially out of a 270 WSM and 7MM-08.
I primarily use A-bonds and Bal Tips.
I appreciate the input.

I am considering purchasing either a 7mm-08 or a 25-06 for general hunting and target shooting.
I have never owned a single shot but own a bolt action.
In your opinion, what are the advantages/disadvantages of either?
Your input would be greatly appreciated
Thanks,
Paul
I am planning a hunt for 2011 to either the Save Valley Conservancy or the Bubye (formerly the Lemco Ranch) Valley Conservancy in Zimbabwe.
After talking with many PH's at the Dallas Safari Club Convention, I got mixed feelings about the 270 WSM on plainsgame.
One PH, without hesitancy, said...
I am plannng a guided Moose hunt in Alaska for 2010.
Does anyone have any recommendations for a guide and the best areas to hunt?
Thanks for the input.

Has anyone hunted Blacktail deer on Kodiak or Afognak islands?
If you have, would you mind sharing who you hunted with, as well as your thoughts.
I am planning a hunt this year or next.
Many thanks,
Paul
I am going to purchase a new spotting scope that I will use for hunting Pronghorns.
With price not being an issue, what make, model, power and objective lens size would you recommend? I don't mind spending the money to get one that serve me well.
I plan to spend the rest of my hunting years(I...
