    Shooting Sports

    I got into shooting NRA High Power several years ago and really enjoyed it. My main rifle was an AR 15 but did shoot a M1A in several matches. I never made Master Class but was just short of it. The time spent shooting High Power definitely improved my shooting skills. I also shot IDPA pistol a...

    When did you kill your first deer?

    Eight point Whitetail buck in 1990 in Shugualak Mississippi. Shot with a CVA Blazer muzzle loader. I was 33 years old as I was raised in a family that only coon hunted and there were very few deer in our part of the state. I felt like I graduated college!

    Help me decide. Model 7 caliber change.

    The 6.5 is virtually what I have (260 REM). I am currently debating a re-barrel to 1-8 twist and keep the 260 caliber, going 7-08 or 308 Win.

    Best trailer tires?

    Just purchased a new 14’ trailer to pull my Kawasaki Mule Pro FXT. It is a single axle with 205/15 size tires. The trailer came with new but cheap tires. What is the best tire for this application. Some of you boat and camper owners might want to chime in. Thanks in advance.

    Help me decide. Model 7 caliber change.

    CC, Mainly Whitetails. I know the 260 is great on them but this rifle will not shoot the 140’s. I have a Browning A-Bolt that shoots them well. I also have two other Model 7’s in the 260 caliber. These rifles are for the grandchildren and they are the ones wanting to move up in bullet weight...

    Help me decide. Model 7 caliber change.

    I shoot 168 grain Barnes out of my Browning A-Bolt. Would hope the same AmmoSeek would be accurate If that is the route I go. Was also thinking maybe 7-08.

    Help me decide. Model 7 caliber change.

    I have a Model 7 in Remington 260 that I want to change to a caliber that shoots a heavier bullet. I’m thinking KISS and re-barrel to a 308 Win. I will keep the same stock and barrel taper and length of 20”. Thoughts? Barrel brand? I have a gunsmith that will perform the change.

    When Did You Kill Your First Elk?

    I was 60 years old (flat lander) and helped pack it and four others out on that 10 day trip. I may not have been in shape when I got there but I was when I left. Good memories.

    Who taught you to hunt?

    Self taught. My dad was a Coon hunter and that never turned me on. I have always loved the outdoors and started deer hunting some family land in my last 20’s. Killed my first deer with a muzzle loader when I was 33. I was hooked. Taught my son and now my grandsons to hunt. It is one of the few...
