    anyone else own a Volquartsen 17?

    Re: anyone else own a Volquartsen 17? Regardless of legality, the 17MHR in all it´s power and glory is extremly marginal on a decent size deer, yotes, ok and at a range less than 100 meters, deer and larger game, not so smart. I dont care that one can hit it, one has to kill it too with...

    Gunsmithing 6XC in an autoloading LMT MWS?

    Re: 6XC in an autoloading LMT MWS? ?- the 6XC is but a 22-250 run a bit short and necked up, in other terms it should be of the same diameter in the base as a 308 win case. I have had the pleasure of dealing with 5 different rifles done for the XC, one T3, four Rem 700 or clones, all...

    Hunting & Fishing Insurance shot?

    Re: Insurance shot? Perhaps it is valid to add what game is in question and in what situation do you think a follow up/insurance shot is a good thing. For anything that can kill/hurt me bad, I guess it would be a good thing, that includes wild boar as well, when shooting at driven game, I...

    Re: disappointed with 7mm08 Is this the proper time to mention that after a hit, you reload while tracking the game and then reaquire a hold in the vitals until it´s down and dead, I do not mind staying for a few minutes behind the rifle just to make sure, at times I have been known to take...
