    Loads for 30-06

    Just started working up a load for my bone-stock Ruger American. I won it, as a second place prize, in a Big Buck contest last fall. Threw some 3-hole Weaver Tactical rings on it, scoped it out with a Bushnell Elite Tactical 10x. Berger 185gr hunting VLD, Winchester brass, COAL 3.34"...

    Score! Arc'teryx LEAF at 73% off!!!!

    Hit a factory clearance sale at the North Vancouver Arcteryx outlet today. Never would I pay full price for the Dead Bird stuff, but it IS really good gear. I have a GoreTex shell and a windstopper soft-shell, and it is worth it (at half off like how I bought it!!!) Anyways, got a Combat...

    Hunting & Fishing 162gr Amax vs coyote

    DRFT is pretty much bang on. Disturbing mess, lungs blew out through its mouth, and I found chunks 20 feet past where it had its dirtnap. Wierd thing is, I used this exact load to take my mulie deer in October. Perfect heart-lung shot, penciled in and came out thru a 1 inch hole. A tad over...

    Hornady and the 7mm 162 Amax

    Hornady has cut their own balls off by doing this.....I still don't get their business plan, or what they hope to accomplish. The A-max is sriously the only bullet I want to shoot through my 7mm; it fits my criteria in every way. Grrrrrrrrrrrr...... I'll keep stocking up on the Hornady match...

    Advanced Marksmanship crazy shots!!!! lets hear about them...

    Elk hunting in northern BC when I used to live up there, carrying my .375Taylor (338 win mag necked up to 375). I see a small pack of wolves at 400 yards plus. Wind was in my favour, the Prophet River was between me and them, all camo'ed up. I got comfortable on my ass, and unleashed my best...

    7 Rem Mag - 7 WSM - 7-08

    Hey everybody! 7mm Remington Mag I am puzzled. First off, I've been reloading for 12 years. I do it by the book; always loaded for accuracy, and I am NOT the guy who tries to wring the most fps out of any given load. I've worked up loads for various rifles, and haven't had any...

    Range Finders under $1,000

    I'm using a Zeiss LRF. Went shooting a couple days ago, was picking up on rocks ( 3 foot, 4 foot, 5 foot size ) at 970yds, 1100 yards, and the farthest was 1385. These are the first and only laser rangefinders I've ever looked thru or used, and I'm very happy with them. Glass is very sharp...
