    Hunting & Fishing Black powder rifle for deer

    Any of you guys muzzleloader hunt? I am in the market for a new one. Have had a hawken side lock and a tc optima in the past. Part of me wants to get a .45 flintlock or a .58 caliber ML to get the authenticity of black powder hunting. The other part of me thinks Daniel Boone would have used a...

    Hunting & Fishing Your “go to” hunting rifle?

    For yotes and whitetail I have a 700 cdl in .25-06. Leupold vx3 3-9x40. If I ever get lucky enough to get drawn for a KY elk tag I'll take the .300 wm. Last year I shot a few doe with my daughter's 7mm-08 not as fond of it as my .25-06 though.

    .300wm - .300wsm

    I have a box of 168 a max I was thinking of loading up for whitetail. Hodgdon list loads for h1000 in win brass with wlrm. Starting at 79 grain with a max of 84 gr. Around 3110 fps. Anyone loaded in this combo? 84 gr. Seems a little heavy... maybe I'm just being timid.

    Rear bags

    I appreciate the advice. That's what I was looking for m, is it worth the money and extra weight to carry around if it's rarely used.

    Rear bags

    Shot my first match at rockcastle team match a couple weeks ago. I waited until I started shooting before I looked into support bags and position building, mainly because I was unsure what to expect. During the match my teammate had a Armageddon game changer and a fat he lent me to use. I...

    .308 Winchester

    I started at 10% below listed max of 45. And increased 2% for 3 rounds, after that I increased 1% every 3 rounds. At 44.9 I got these signs and stopped. Obviously incorrect? Without measuring the actual case capacity, how do you determine 43.5 is the max charge fort brass? Not being...
