    Problems with inconsistency

    are your groups just all over? or is there a pattern to the grouping? I guess what I mean is do they get consistenly worse with each shot but off in the same general direction... (Think nuts on with first shot, high and right next shot, further high and right next shot etc....)

    Handlaoding

    Thanks for the responses guys. I'm not necessarily saying I want to shoot at animals out to 1000 yards, but it would be nice if, after more practice, I could reach out and get them out to 700 or 800 yards. What do you consider an acceptable ES if wanting to shoot long range? I understand that...

    Handlaoding

    I got into reloading a couple years ago, but have really been hitting it hard the last 6 months. I currently reload for my 7mag, 22-250, and .223. I recently purchased a 6.5 creedmoor so after my wife kills her deer with it in a week or so I will start working up my own load for it. It shoots...

    7 mm Rem Mag.

    I've been working up a load for my remington 700 in 7mag. Mine has a 26" barrel. I started with RL19 and Retumbo powder and 168 berger vld hunting bullets. I made up 40 rounds total. I did 5 shot groups at .005, .010, .015, and .020 off the lands with each powder. I don't remember what the...

    White Pistol grips

    He doesn't have a lot on his website yet, but I'm sure he could work up some grips for ya. I know he makes a lot of 1911 grips, but I'd bet he could get something made up for your H&R

    Lasik

    I had Lasik done about 4 years ago. best fricken move ever. I had the procedure done, went to the hotel and slept for a couple hours, woke up and went out for dinner. Everything had a haze around it but after dinner I went back to bed. Next morning I woke up and could see perfectly. Drove...

    .243 for Mule Deer?

    I used an old 6mm for my first 10 years of deer hunting. I've never had a problem killing mule deer with 85g remington corelocks. While it's not exactly the same as a .243, it's pretty Fricken close. Shoot away.

    Neg Reps.

    I have never been the recipient of a neg rep, but I do think it would be neat if Vollmer would designate 1 day each year as the Purge. On this day, all neg reps past and present would have the members name that gave the neg rep actually pop up next to the neg rep. Just think of the epic rants...

    Field dressing a deer

    Yes, but if you plan on trying this, don't do it with a cheap ass pack like I did 2 years ago... I packed out my muledeer 2 years ago. all the meat in the pack, and the head strapped to the outside and it was fricken miserable. I was using a cheap ALPZ brand pack and I'll tell ya they are...

    243 or 308 "reduced recoil" for youth

    I have never seen reduced recoil rounds for the 6.5CM either but with the low recoil that comes along with this caliber I don't personally see it as being necessary.

    243 or 308 "reduced recoil" for youth

    I am with 1833 on this one. The browning hells canyon is an awesome gun. I've never shot the SPEED version, but I do have a Long Range Hunter in 6.5 creedmoor. This is by far the most pleasant gun I have ever shot. the 6.5 CM caliber is just a lower recoil round in general. Add in the...

    Pointers

    choot em all. Yes, watching your dog work a scent and come on point is awesome, but to me, so is watching them retrieve a bird. Part of my reasoning for this is because my dog points even the dead ones haha. When she finds a dead one that I've knocked down, she points it for about 10 or 15...

    Im in the market for a new rifle.....

    If your just lookin for something to shoot a deer with, and then let er sit for the rest of the year. I'd probably go with a savage model 11 or even a savage axis 2. They are cheaper guns and they will work excellent for your intended use You can get the Model 11 in 6.5 creedmoor with a 3-9x40...

    Im in the market for a new rifle.....

    yowza... mine was right around $1200 and I bought it from scheels. It took a couple days to get it as it had to be sent up from the Bismarck store. I topped it with a vortex viper pst 6-24 that I had sitting in the safe.
