    Mule vs Whitetail

    You may be right. I shot a whitetail in the mountains in Montana that would gag a maggot.

    Handlaoding

    Like you 2400 I load for performance. Accuracy is the main goal, but if I can get accuracy and speed even better. This years deer was at 850 yards. Ten minutes before I nailed a coyote at 575 yards. Coyotes don't move much when hit with a 210 gr bullet. I was using a suppressor so got away...

    Mule vs Whitetail

    I have had mostly good whitetail. I have had half the muleys good half bad. My best buck mule deer I had to choke down. I have tried bone and package right away, and I have tried hanging for five days. Best deer I have ever eaten was a whitetail I hung for six days. I have also run into...

    Problems with inconsistency

    Good point. Especially with light barrels I have experienced different points of impact depending on if I set my bipod on sod, or hard ground, or rocks. Some light barrels are worse when free-floated. With a light 300 Win Mag I had a few years ago groups opened when free-floayed. I used...

    Problems with inconsistency

    Two things come to my mind. Even with the few rounds you have through it copper in the bore could be your problem. The other possibility is a small ding in your crown. It could be nearly imperceptible without magnification. However a very small dent will allow gas escape on one side before...

    Handlaoding

    Just now noticed I didn't answer you in this thread. I use the 200 gr in my Springfield XD, and in my model 1911 I pull the factory 16 lb recoil spring and drop in a 24 lb recoil spring and load the 200 gr to 1200 fps. For those reading this don't try it with the factory 16 lb spring because...

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

    Your right today we have many more options. I guess we should all be happy about that because we think differently. I like the smaller increments of the minute of angle. I don't like the 1/8 inch because you get less yardage per revolution. I wish I had the second generation PST with 25...

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

    Oh, ok. I guess I have never seen a mil adjustment without mil dots. Who makes those, and why? What's the reason for having such an adjustment if it doesn't incorporate into the ranging system? I like the finer adjustment for small targets at long range. The way it is 1/4 inch click is...

    Yes I know Kirt, I have about ten mildots. I wish I could trade them all for minute of angle. As you say mile is ALMOST easier. - - - Updated - - - Yes I know Kirt, I have about ten mildots. I wish I could trade them all for minute of angle. As you say mile is ALMOST easier. Mils is more...

    Dont be a snowflake. Die fighting

    No experience, but my guess is a gun fight that last more than two or three rounds is between two novices. From the training I have had it appears that the guy who can keep his nerve and actually use his sights is the guy who walks away. Kind of nerve racking with a pansy spraying lead all...

    Dont be a snowflake. Die fighting

    I hired this guy one time that had a lot of safety training. I thought maybe he wanted to be a safety training person some day. Turns out they made him take a safety training course every time he did something major stupid. May be old Clint needed a lot of training because he couldn't get...

    Generator for bad weather

    Don't get caught. It sounds like they will make your life miserable if they catch you doing that. It cost me about a grand to have a generator wired to the outside and with a specific box in the basement for determining which circuits you will run.

    Sub MOA for $199??

    Ooops I was in Scheels in Sioux Falls. The Cabelas was in Kansas City, Kansas. I had been stopping in them and Bass Pro all the way back from the Smoky Mountains and Shiloh civil war battlefield. I never did get my hands on a Thompson Center Compass. Crappy trip. They say you don't get...

    Dont be a snowflake. Die fighting

    I shudder to think how fast his big mouth can make us all look sub intelligent. His foul mouth makes him look stupid even if he is correct. People will actually listen to a person who has an intellectual vocabulary and can express himself. Obama is an idiot, but people believed him because he...

    Sub MOA for $199??

    The Cabelas gun salesman in Sioux Falls, South Dakota told me the Savage sale has been over for a month. He didn't appear interested in selling anything inexpensive. Sort of turned his nose up.

    Neg Reps.

    Had that happen, then the mental midgets were upset I didn't sign in with my name from other sites. Go figure. I don't know who were the bigger-------- the one who used Plainsman to sign into here, or the fools who were upset with me for using PrairieGhost. I suspect one of the guys who was...

    New blind build

    A neighbor has an almost identical set up. He has it attached to an inexpensive Menards trailer. Attached with two hinged legs and a small boat hand winch lifts it up six feet where he attaches the other two legs. He has a 1 7/8 ball welded to an earth anchor. Screw in the earth anchor...
