From what I've read they are Amaxs but with the new heat tip they have on. And everybody loves the Amaxs on game

That smack sound was my jaw hitting the floor

I've read the 3rd party shoot out diesels for the past 4 years and Ford has been number one every time. Before they made the 2017 dodge did state they offer more pulling power which it did. But up hill pulls, 1/4 mile drags Ford 1 and Chevy 2 out beat it. The last thing i read was that dodge did get # 1 on down hill breaking. Chevy did get # 1 on that 9-12 mile hill in Colorado that goes up to 12,000 ft by a truck length on the Ford. And of course dodge in third.

Way cool! Now about those 8070 pics. Let's post them -
What a sweet spot

You will see deer. The reason why all these southern units have left overs are from the ideas that they have border patrol problems. I've never had a problems but border patrol is present.

Spot and stalk or hunt from a blind?
Zeke-BE replied to Murph24's topic in Bowhunting for Coues Deer
I'm to A-D-D!!!! Desert I try to place my self were the bucks are pushing the does in front of me (rut). Thick stuff or pines, I still hunt, and open areas I glass. Doesn't mean I'll try sitting water. I just can't sit there all day. After a while I tell myself " I'm sure there is a deer over that hill" -
Which unit will you be hunting in August?
Zeke-BE replied to kazpilot25's topic in Mule Deer Hunting
I would be in unit 1 but everyone can't make it this year. So I'll go dink around in 7e. Haven't been there and try something new. -
Once you go tripod you won't go back. You can look through it for 20 min with no problem. No tired arms or aches. And if you are trying to pick a part something there's no rattle. But your from flagstaff and you might always be hunting in the pines so I see your point.

New 6.5mm Wildcat Cartridge
Zeke-BE replied to lancetkenyon's topic in Rifles, Reloading and Gunsmithing
Very cool results Lance! Ive been in contact with doug about looking into my .270. I'm just waiting till after the hunting season. PS-- Your daughter looks like she is the Boss!!! Don't mess with her, proud pa pa you are -
I have the tall tripods, I can stand longer than trying to find that perfect spot in the chair. I find my self slouching in chairs or sitting. Back starts hurting. If I'm by the truck I'll use chairs from time to time

New 6.5mm Wildcat Cartridge

I got tikka .270, nosler brass, 140 grain accurbond a, vortex scope, shooing right at 3,000 fps, sub MOA. Last year hit my couse right exactly at 400 yards one shot drop. I have center plate 750 yards, but most .270 BC is around in the .500 while heavy 30 cal and light 6.5 you can get in the .600 BC. After this hunting season I'm rebuilding my .270 to a 6.5-.270 AI. I want the 6.5 BC and a couple hundred fps faster. When shooting out to 700 yards its a bit finicky. I heard of a lot of guys shoot with lot more ease with the 6.5. If you are planning on only shooting out to 500 yard max then the .270 will get the job done without a problem. I personally would just keep my .270 the same but all these no good CWT guys are making me depress with their new gun builds! . I blame you CWT

That's looks freaky cool

That last one is cool

Before I clicked on this I said yes!

My brother has it set up just like that extremely light. The sweetest and most fun 22 I have ever shot! Bump. For an awesome set up
-
My nosler accurbond kick butt! The LRAB are not working. Read some of the load dates Lance is doing with them, and firstcouse80 I believe hasn't had much luck with them, but loves accurbond. Besides that the story is consistent with the other crappy grouping it's doing.

I'm interested but I have the standard barrel contour. It looks like a heavier barrel fits it better

Grandpa's Springfield 1917 rifle rebuild, maybe 6.5-06?
Zeke-BE posted a topic in Rifles, Reloading and Gunsmithing
I believe this is a springfield 1917 30-06. It was my grandfathers and I don't know how many animal he has taken with this but it was many! Grandpa gave this to us years ago because we didn't have any hunting rifles, and my older brother shot his first deer with it, I shot my first deer with it, my buddy shot his first big game Javalina with it. Its seen alot! Well instead of making it a rifle collective item i've been thinking about rebuilding it and turning it into a newer hunting rig with the same action. New stock, maybe new barrel. Also thinking about turning it into a 6.5-06. Grandpa wasn't an avid shooter, so I think this barrel might only have 500-600 rounds down the tube in its life time. But as you can see on the barrel looks like gramps added a ported muzzle break on the barrel itself. So my question is what options do I have for a Springfield??????? Is there aftermarket parts, stocks, barrels for this gun?? What things need to happen, and what do i need to get down if I want to change it to a 6.5-06 other than a new barrel. Any tips, advise, if I should just keep it a 30 cal, keep it original, give it a new look, beef it up?? I want make gramps proud knowing that he knows that we are still hunting with his guns. If it sits there any longer grandpa will probably start turning in his grave! -
I've read that the EDL x are the new game round. And the new EDL is the same bullet Amax but with the heat resistant tip and should be the same as the Amax. Everyone loves The a max. But in the same write up it talked that the EDL x jacket might be to thin and blew up on contact like a ballistic tip. This is what I remember I can be totally wrong. So if the new EDL are the same Amax with the new tip that's good enough for me. .
