    Buying a new gun..Dilemma

    I am going for about 2950 which should give me very long brass life and all the velocity I want. This velocity with low pressures should also extend barrel life.

    Buying a new gun..Dilemma

    I have a 6.5x284 that pushes a 140gr to 3050 + or -. Now on longrangehunter I find a powder that lets me get a 140gr to 3056 out of a 24 inch barrel Creedmoor. It gets better every day. Did I post that before? Maybe having a senior moment here. I don't want another of those bad reps that...

    Shame on you hunters

    You could be right. Either way there are people trying to get their hands on it. If you are right then sportsmen and ranchers better stick together and not let the American Land Council and Farm Bureau separate us. Edit: Either way sticking together is a good idea because much of the urban...

    Shame on you hunters

    That's not true. The American Land Council advocates selling off public land. Ask a Farm Bureau person where they stand on that issue. I thought for a while I would have to vote for Cruz for president, but thank God Trump won because Cruz was for selling off public land. Don't try convince...

    Shame on you hunters

    I'm sure that's it for some of the proponents of auto posting, but in that same vein the outfitters and guides like it too. Not unlike how happy gun shops were when the 1968 gun law passed. No longer could you order a rifle for yourself from a catalog like we had before. We had to go to a...

    Shame on you hunters

    I haven't seen what that nut job has been up to. Is he still copying pages from here to run like a little boy to the legislature? I sort of had the feeling I still live in his head.

    Shame on you hunters

    No he had one of these signs. I run into both that day and don't remember which is which, or maybe both were his. He sure like to rub our nose into how many elk he has shot and we only get one chance. Nothing compared to Montana though. I have seen abandon all hope yee who enter here...

    Shame on you hunters

    Also the permits they get to shoot elk because they are eating their hay or whatever damage they are claiming. Don't cow elk cause damage too? Specify cow elk only for depredation permits. I talked with one rancher bragging about the six huge bulls their family has shot. The same rancher...

    Buying a new gun..Dilemma

    Yours and my Creedmoor Kurt. My 270 with R22 kicks out a Berger VLD at 3070 fps. Right out of the Barmes manual. I have not shot my 270 for a couple of years, but it's a great gun. I agree with you bigv. I have a 6.5x284 that pushes the 143 ELD-X at 3030 fps which beats the new magic 6.5...

    Buying a new gun..Dilemma

    Crap that's where my money is going. I shoot over 1000 rounds a year out of my Creedmoors. I bought a couple of 308s because I was wearing out my old 300 mag shooting 500 rounds a year through it. Prairie dogs really pop with a 300 mag. You guys may think I am joking about these things. I...

    Buying a new gun..Dilemma

    For 600 yards stick with a production rifle, and you have many choices of cartridges. For $800 the Kimber Hunter is tempting as is the Tikka light weight. Stay under $1000 and spend the money you save on a good scope.

    Hmmmm?

    I'll bet dollars to dimes the guys leaving chains in corn and opening grain bins were not wearing orange. The country is becoming more divided all the time. People are becoming to small to accept constructive criticism. Constructive criticism is one thing then accusation is another. Hunters...

    Hmmmm?

    I don't know what to make of these roads. I was out in the Badlands last week for two days. I noticed oil workers digging their way to wells in their 4X4. It's hard to complain about that since they built the road and I would guess they must get to the rig for some reason. Likewise most of...

    Man Card

    Now I am feeling old. How many of you drive a vehicle you had to double clutch. I'll bet half don't even know what I am talking about. You had to push in the clutch to get the vehicle out of bear, then drop the clutch, then push it in again before pushing into the next gear. If you missed a...
