Doing mine while I'm heathly enough to enjoy. Taking my two sons as videographers

That exactly what I've been told about my hunt. Catch them early in the morning make a precise shot, and be ready to quickly send another if it takes to running. Guy I hunt with have belly crawled for yards just to get close enough not to spook the herd.

Currently not concerned about the ability to kill the buffalo. More important is a quick dispatch. This forum is giving a great bit detail. Thanks for the inputs. Keep the info coming. Hunting experiences are greatly appreciated.

Lots of practice this summer on steel targets should help my prescsion. May need to thread a needle.

Thanks for the quick feedback. Brand new 1 lb. As for the chrono graph was at 10 ft and fully deployed. It was a sunny day. Expected to see faster rather then slower with the extra 2 inches of barrel. Well at this point this load will have to work for Elk.

Need a bit of help. Chrono'd my Remington 700 300 win mag (5R) 26" barrel with 200 gr accubonds today and was amazed to see 2741 fps. Book value shows 2862fps for imr 4831 powder @67 grains. 112 fps slower? RL 22 72.5 grains chrono'd bit quicker then book @2965fps groups .830" Note:imr4831 get...
