    Hunting & Fishing 140 gr ELDM kill

    Earlier this month there was a thread about ELDMs “failing” on a mule deer. I commented something to the effect of the shot placement was less than ideal. A statement I still stand by. But as much as I love commenting on the Internet I figured I should try an ELDM on game to see how it worked...

    No deer died on opening day. But I did get to spend some time watching this guy. Side note: I really like the Razor LHT. Clicks are positive and repeatable. Glass is super clear for the money. Lockable at maximum point blank range.

    Are you the guy that bought that thing off of eBay? I was eyeballing one last week.

    260 Rem 140gr Nosler RFD

    I don’t know? It’s the dark green Krylon camo paint. I just threw that on there because the factory stock was so damn slippery! The whole thing was set up in a rush. But it turns out it shoots so well that I robbed a scope off another rifle to have it upgraded before this Saturday. Zeroed...

    260 Rem 140gr Nosler RFD

    Has anyone tried these? With 140gr ELD-M being unobtainable right now I'm looking for options to try. I'm looking for any first hand experience, loads, or terminal performance on game. Times are tough out there for components and its time to diversify.

    Hunting & Fishing 6.5 bullet not recommended for mule deer

    Unpopular but correct in my book. Inner-loins are not as good as other cuts.

    Time for an ultralight rifle...

    For your budget buy a Tikka Superlite and throw it in an aftermarket stock. That’s what I did twice now. 300wm and 270. Both will hold .5-.6moa 3 shot groups. Last year the 270 shown below went on a backpack antelope hunt. It got warm and I brought my camp and goat out all at once. I was glad...

    Hunting & Fishing 6.5 bullet not recommended for mule deer

    That deer was hit back: and if you wrecked the tenderloins I would imagine any bullet would have done that. If that bullet ran though the rib cage this thread wouldn't exist.

    Is HORNADY - 6.5mm 140gr ELD-M good choice for 6.5 creedmoor load?

    No! don't use it! All the people using this bullet in 6.5 Creedmoor make it impossible to find for my 260😂

    As usual the old faithful 270 Superlite drove tacks as well. It gets your attention after shooting the other rifle.

    I bought this thing in February and never shot it. I tried a stock and chassis and 2 different scopes but never got ambitious enough to shoot it. It was back in the factory stock waiting for me to get ambitious enough to sell it. My can cleared and I realized this was the only “deer rifle”...
