    My son got his buck.....and a story to tell.

    My oldest son shot his buck on Nov. 16, in Michigans Upper Peninsula. A little twist to an otherwise ordinary story...he has only been able to shoot one other buck in all his years of whitetail hunting. He's shot does, he's a good hunter and puts in his time...but a buck just seems to allude...

    25.06 Muled Deer load

    First off, Hello from Michigan. This fall will be a first for my son and I going to Montana for mule deer. I am planning on using my 25.06 and would like some opinions on loads. Rifle is a Browning Medallion A-bolt w/B.O.S.S. I use 100 gr. for Michigan whitetails, but am guessing I need to go...
