I didn’t read your post just prior to this post.....but, my comment still holds true! Now “That’s” what families are supposed to do!!! Congratulations to you.....you are a blessed man! (y) memtb

Was a miss by me!:mad: One of the easiest shots that I will ever have at big game.....I’ve hit running rabbits withthe same rifle at about the same distance. I jumped the largest Mule Deer I’m likely to ever see from his bed. He was running with that “po-go” gait, that Mule Deer will often do...

We’re big Leupold fans. More Leupolds at our home than any other scope brand. We had 2.5-8 Vari-x 3’s on our Winchester Model 70 rifles (heavy recoil rifles) for over tweny years, without a hiccup! We, several years ago, upgraded power-wise, to 3.5-10 CDS scopes....and are very happy. We use...

And here I was telling my wife it looked like a Bull Snake! ;) If we get some wind.....we occasionally see “snow snakes” moving about! :ROFLMAO: memtb

Good photos, and accompanying comments. Pretty country, did you bring the snake from home or is it native ? :unsure: We’ve seena lot of things elk hunting.....but, never a snake! Glad y’all had a safe and enjoyable hunt! memtb

Congrats Bob, hope that you really enjoyed your fist and successful “goat” hunt! memtb

go deep, Congratulations to your son on his first Antelope. And, making the event even better.....taking one that is very unique! (y) memtb

A real nice bull......sorry that it’s not yours! memtb

I failed to mention, that sometimes on a very bright sunny day in the snow, the reflected light or glare from the snow....can also become a problem with the scope. Not likely.....but once, at just the wrong time could cost yo7 a shot! memtb

cacklercrazy, We have the Leupold ARD ( anti reflective device), which is a honey combed device, typically shorter than the typical shade. These devices have their plusses and minuses. Pluses.....work good if attempting to use the scope while looking in to the sun, and offer protection to...

Personally, I’d like a little bigger than #8.....but, it’s what I had. The heavier, larger shot would offer greater penetration, but I would sacrifice pattern density. At the ranges at which this is likely to be used......penetration should (fingers crossed) be adequate! As with much in...

It may do better than you think! Life is an experiment! 😉 memtb

As many of us venture into the mountains chasing Mule Deer or Elk, one of the bounties bestowed upon us is the opportunity to put a grouse in the pot. It doesn’t get much better than enjoying a meal of freshly caught Brookies or a nice grouse or two. With a rifle, head shots on a grouse...

I I should’ve already made a Buffalo hunt, but I quit applying! A lot of friends of mine have taken them, I’m a little envious. Too crippled-up now ( old) to pack one out.....would have to hire someone with horses! Maybe, I think abou5 i5 again one day! memtb

Thanks Colorado, There may be possible improvements with velocity and group size.....but, it would be hard to justify the efforts. This was not skill with casting, loading, ect., just “dumb luck”....but, I’ll take it! memtb

I got a Marlin Guide Gun (45-70) about 6 years ago, and a bullet mold for casting bullets. Far too much work around the place, and other issues prevented me from doing anything with my new, now old gun! Two years ago, finally got some bullets cast. That was were the process stopped, until the...

I did a test today, I can hit Planet Earth @ 1000 yards....every time! Yes...I are that good! ;) memtb

I was loading 140 TSX’s with H-4350 for my daughter’s rifle. I didn’t offer any load suggestions as, I didn’t work very hard on perfection.....just kinda through something together that was acceptable! memtb

AKaviator, No insult intended.....but, you are aware that Barnes’ generally like to be seated way off of the lands! I think that Barnes recommends starting @ 0.050” off, and work from there! Good Luck! memtb
