    Favorite calibers

    338 RUM, but I don't know why. It goes to the range more than any other rifle I own , even if just for a shot or two. And every hunt I do, no matter which rifle I ultimately take, its on the short list. I saw a woodchuck in a field a while back and that was the rifle I choose to dispatch it...

    RL23 Data for Barnes 168 TTSX 300RUM

    Looking for Data for RL23 and Barnes 168 TTSX for my 300RUM. I've been loading RL22, Only thing I found was Speer data for a 165 and I was surprised how much different the loads were from RL22 to RL23 as I had heard they had a pretty close burn rate. I called Barnes a while back they had...

    Ruger Customer service

    When I called them I ask them to install a taller fiber optic front sight and was willing to pay. They told me they didn't do custom gunsmithing. My back up plan was to contact Williams gun sight here in MI to see if they could do it. Maybe you could try them. Mine is shooting good enough I'm...

    Pro-Hunter vs. Gameking

    This is what I found as well. I Shot 3 Whitetail with 180 GK in a 300 Win Mag. the range under was under 50 yards on all 3, I didn't get an exit on 2 of them . One only went in about 5 " just far enough to cut all the arteries in from of the heart , obviously it killed the deer. I found only...

    120gr Speer SBT

    What ever you choose I'd test/practice with it in the wind. I hunted there in 2002 IIRC and I can tell you when I was there (Nov.) the wind did blow and you could see/shoot a long ways. I wasn't as prepare as I should have been. Where I Hunted , at the time , in Michigan and Saskatchewan 250...

    New Lightweight Savage Rifle

    Just saw the wood/blued version yesterday , 308 what a sweet gun. I had to get out of there it wouldn't have taken much for me to walk out with that one. I'm just glad the Leupold display with the VX-3 2.5 x 8 wasn't close by , might have pushed me over the top.

I took the sporter 3 days in a row over to where I shoot , each day I shot a 3 shot group with 100 gr. TTSX at a target at 240 Yards. Later on I...
