    B Zone Buck With a Handgun

    Tough hunt considering the heat and heavy smoke from the nearby forest fires. Deer seemed to be disoriented and confused because of the smoke. Saw very few deer compared to previous years. Spotted this guy in pre-season scouting, but he disappeared until 7:00 PM on the last day of my hunt...

    6.5 To kill an elk?

    Some years ago I was on a group hunt in Texas shortly after the .300 WSM was introduced. A representative from one of the major ammunition companies was extolling the virtues and killing power of that cartridge. He turned to me and asked "what do you thing?". I guess that was because I was...

    Favorite mule deer bullet?

    I tend to use heavier bullets in my rifles than most. My favorite Weatherby rifle is my7mm Weathermark with the 175 Speer Grand Slam over 75.0 gr. of H-1000 for 2979 fps. For heavier game I use a 300 Weatherby AccuMark with the 200 gr. Nosler Partition over 82.0 gr. of IMR-7828 for 2,975 fps...

    Rethinking my loads/calibers for deer.

    I like a heavier bullet in the .300 Magnums. In my .300 Weatherby, I use either the Barnes 165 gr. TTSX over 83.0 RL22, or the Nosler 180 gr. Partition over 81.0 AA-3100. Both loads clock a shade over 3,000 fps.

    Increasing Pwdr Chrg Yields Lower Speed

    I ran into this some years back. It is simply the gun telling you that is the maximum load for that powder, gun and bullet combination. You can verify that by CHE measurements. I will generally back off two loads before the decreased load, or in your example 52.8 grains. There is not an...

    bear spray

    Bear spray does expire. Some cans of more recent manufacture have an expiration date on the can. Pressing the button on your can of bear spray and getting only a fizzing sound or nothing, has to be maximum pucker factor!
