    Cold bore shots?

    Re: Cold bore shots? I go hunting with a dirty/cold bore, never a clean/cold bore. Make note of your dirty/cold bore shots. Make that adjustment on your scope when you go hunting.

    First rifle for kids....

    Re: First rifle for kids.... We live on some land and my son still totes his bb gun all over the place on his 4 wheeler. Under supervision he has moved to the 22lr, then to the AR. When I finish my 6.5 he wants to move up to that. He will be 10 next month.

    30-06 ammunition

    Re: 30-06 ammunition Just curios, but what are you hunting and where? IMO for anything you can find in TX, that 150gr SP should be doing well unless you are at extended ranges. Whatever the case may be, more penetration for .30 cal = Barnes TTSX.

    what weight bullet for 30.06?

    Re: what weight bullet for 30.06? TX WT will be obliterated with 180 grainers. When I used heavy bullets for hunting, the deer always ran. In wooded areas - I use 110 gr soft points over 55 gr RL15, and it drops them where they are. I am looking at getting another lease in the Hill Country...

    20 MOA base or not?

    Re: 20 MOA base or not? Before you decide, try both. Mount the base, mount your scope, tighten everything up, and go to the range. I look at it a little diferently. A 20 MOA base may hurt if you do not have an adjustable cheek piece. That is why you see people with stock packs built up...

    AR loads vs Bolt loads

    Re: AR loads vs Bolt loads I do not "load down" my gas guns as an intention, I load for accuracy first, mag length is then the limitation.

    7.62X54R Reloading?

    Re: 7.62X54R Reloading? I started reloading to save money too. That has to be one the biggest oxy-morons. (sp?) All I do now is shoot so much that I spend a hell of alot more in components than I ever did in factory ammo. That being said, It is a hell of alot more fun, and I love it.

    dope card vs drop chart

    Re: dope card vs drop chart I think the main question you are asking is this.. Is there a difference between what a ballistic calulator spits out and what your bullet will actually do? The answer is yes, I don't care how accurate you get all the variables. ie wind speed, elevation, MV, BC...

    Hunting & Fishing Bambi Killer Eliminated

    Re: Bambi Killer Eliminated Good job! She looks alot better than the ones I have been seeing around here. The ones I have seen are in bad shape, I guess the drought is effecting their food source. I won't be surprised if I look up soon and they are chasing the filly around.
