    What Do You Consider Long Range?

    As I have mentioned previously, I have Leupold scopes (all VXIII's) with Leupold ballistic turrets for my loads. Every year when I get out my hunting rifles for their pre season shooting sessions, I verify my setting out to 500 yards. Lots of my friends in our gun club shoot 100 yards and...

    Scarce .22 Target Ammo

    I met Dave (Winchester) yesterday in Gunnison, a good meeting place between both of our home locations. We had lunch and a great conversation. He is a veteran too and we have a lot in common. He gave me 4 bricks of target .22 ammunition and I agreed to help him with a Colorado antelope hunt in a...

    What Do You Consider Long Range?

    I forgot to add this to my thread. I used to shoot 1000 yard bp buffalo rifle in our cowboy shoots. I shot a Sharps 45-70. But as i got older, my eye gave up. I got to the point where I could hit a buffalo steel cutout about 50% of the time. The wind was your enemy there too. Would I shoot a...

    What Do You Consider Long Range?

    The longest shot that I have ever killed a big game animal (antelope) was 420 yds according to my rangefinder. That was with my 25-06. My big game rifles all have leupold scopes with cds dials on them. My local range is out to 300 yds. I do have a spot in the local National Forest that I have...

    Your Biggest Buck

    I don't mind the cold too much, I hate the wind! I love to hunt the day after an inch or so of new snow is on the ground. Every track is fresh and it's easy to see the animals.

    Scarce .22 Target Ammo

    I prefer to shoot Aguila Match Pistol, but Federal or CCI match will work also. I havn't bought any in 2 or 3 years, as I bought 5 bricks the last time I bought some. I usually shoot a couple of bricks over the winter, depending on how much I practice. Our Bulls Eye League starts early November...
