    Hunting & Fishing 130 AR hybrid or 120/123 AMAX on deer?

    Around here in the southeast the 6.5 creedmoor has developed a reputation as a non-effective killer. I tried to convince a friend it was the bullet not the cartridge. He benched the 6.5 creed that his son was using and got him a 7mm mag. :oops: I think the problem has come from hunters using a...

    Hunting & Fishing 130 AR hybrid or 120/123 AMAX on deer?

    To echo what has been said the 120, 123, and 130 will work out of the Grendel. I prefer the 123 eld or sst for more explosive speed. I get 2450 out of a 20" Howa with 123 eldm. Killed several deer and coyotes with that setup. I also run 123 eldm out of a 6.5 creed and it has a few coyotes...

    Remington 700 Alpha 1

    There are some people if you give them $100 they are going to complain that it's not $101. I hope they meet the expectations of this competitive market. They are a significant part of our shooting and hunting lifestyle/history, and it will be nice to see the company a heavy-weight contender...

    Hunting & Fishing Walking in with climber tree stand

    If I am going to strap a pack to a climbing stand I prefer the stand against my back and the pack strapped to it. I also bought a lumbar support belt and permanently attached it to my stand. However, in cold weather when I may have a full pack I pack front and back. Treestand on the back and...

    Hunting & Fishing Noob Hunter

    I am very fortunate that my father took me hunting and educated me on the outdoors when I was a boy. Here's my brief .02 on how to approach your season: 1. Nothing is more important than time in the woods 2. Food sources - examples - in the southeast in chronological order - browse...

    Looking for a daypack

    To avoid being redundant - old thread revive. I’m looking at 2 packs. Use will be just local one-day matches, and whatever else I may need. I already have 2 good packs for my hunting style by Badlands. Looking at Mystery Ranch 2 day Assault pack or the Eberlestock H31 Bandit. I found...

    Favorite Wrist Coach?

    My first match ever I used a compression sleeve on my left forearm and athletic tape. Got an Armageddon gear wrist coach for a present. It works well. If you want to try something different that is inexpensive: Nite Ize 12" gear tie, alligator clip, cut off ball end of tie, slide on clip, and...

    Is NRL going away?

    @akmike47 well... for the most part. A person can be competitive in the 22 game with a factory setup, or mostly factory. For the average shooter running a stock Bergara, Tikka, or Ruger in 6.5 they are going to have a harder time hanging with the folks running a custom 6br, Dashers, etc. for...

    Is NRL going away?

    My .002 - their centerfire series just couldn’t compete with the growth and popularity of the PRS. A very smart move to restructure and offer something different so they wouldn’t die. Their 22 series as said is going strong. I told my shooting buddy years ago PRS style 22 matches are the...

    The caving has begun, our new gun control bill

    My .002 - and it only matters to me. I am a life long hunter and shooter that grew up on a cattle farm with a mom and dad. I have just finished year 23 in public education in title 1 schools, and I have taught and coached over 10,000 students in my career. To talk about what is the problem...

    6mm vs .22 for PRS

    Are people really switching to 6.5s for their main PRS gun? Or is it just NRL hunter or field matches? I can't see where there would be any advantage to running a 6.5 over a 6 dasher for 1200 and in for PRS positional.

    What is average or expected barrel life out of a 22 br or 22 dasher?

    .223 - 5.56

    Please share your brass prep method. Getting low sd's and es depends on (outside of case geometry) brass prep and accuracy of charge weight. If I'm wrong let me know. I'm here to learn. thanks

    .223 - 5.56

    Need a little help please - brainstorming on how to get better sd and es with the 223. Maybe it's just my brass. I didn't have enough Lapua to load up for a match so I did a full prep with a bunch of wolf brass I had. I have an 8lb jug of Shooter's World Precision - so that's what I'm using...
