It's time to re load some nice yote rounds. I only used my AR colt 6940 for shooting and plinking. But now I want to use it as a varmint gun. My question is that I want to use a heavier round 69-77 grain bullet. Do I need to be concern with the pressure for an AR because I need to keep the coal mag length with a heavier bullet? I know bolts will stick, but I am bit scared to damage my gun if to hot and not realizing it until it's to late

Do you guys like the smk and Hornady hpbt match for coyotes?
-
I didn't see 69 smk today. I'll look somewhere else tomorrow. Any ideas ?
-
I don't think I'll get that exactly since I'm shooting the 16" barrel

My barrel twist is 1 in 7
-
That is so awesome

I can't remember when do antelope start dropping?? I want to head north and preserve the heards and call some yotes? Or did I miss the drops?

Way to go!!!!

Lance will chime in soon. He has spent many hours behind these. He rated the euros right below the swarc! I took his advice and for glass that matched the swarc expect the outer rim is ever so slightly dimmer then the swarc. So I went and bought the 15s euros and they are fantastic and half the cost of the 15 swarc.

I just finished mine. If the field day is in phx or Mesa that list won't last more than 24 hours. You need to check the online daily! Daily!!!!!!!!!! Once you see it jump on ASAP

Go for looks! Nothing is nicer when you have hardwood trees on your property. Ash will usually grow 2-3 ft a year. They are hardy and good looking. When trimmed properly they look even better. I have a fan tex ash, a Bradford Pear, and a Chinese red push. Also a Chinese pistachio with an another fan text ash in the back yard. My house will look like I'm from back east during fall. The bradford pear has a fiery red fall color with white flowers for spring. But it's more brittle and it will be topped out as a tree in 15 years. You can also go with cottonwood. Needs more water but they sound like aspens in the wind and nice gold fall colors. Do us all a favor don't plant Palos Verdes or mesquite trees. I was born in raised in the phx valley and I hate desert land scape.

Exactly !!!! Most thief's break in during the day and they are not set up to steel a 300-600 lb safe or going to risk smacking it with an ax, crowbar and make lots of noise. Almost all thief's are amateurs and won't know how to break in. If someone picked it and got inside......... Well he was going to get that anyways

Maybe not to high. I do see a oak tree right behind it
-
That's some high elevation for that beast. I see some Douglas furs in the background. I know they are up that high but few .

Hornady ELD Match vs ELD X (hunter)
Zeke-BE replied to Zeke-BE's topic in Rifles, Reloading and Gunsmithing
Good read. Sounds like amax (EDL match) blow up more like ballistic tips and the EDL hunter comes apart from the jacket -
Nosler long range accubond vs accubonds
Zeke-BE replied to lionhunter's topic in Long Range Shooting
I'm hitting center plat at 750 yards with my tikka .270 accubond. Killed anterlope at 300 yard, double lunged and went 5 ft. A mule deer at 300 yards double lunged and went 10 ft, and a 400 yard couse shot through the heart tore a quarter of the heart out, destroyed a lung and exited with a 2-1/2 hole. He dropped at 10 ft and. A day later my buddy use my rifel to shoot his couse at 260 yards quarter away and dropped him in his track with a 2-1/2" hole exit . From my research they over achieve (accurbond long range) at long range targets. Meaning they are accurate and expanding very well. They underachieve at close range. Meaning they don't really expand at high velocity. Again this is me reporting what other people have said according to the research I've seen -
Nice bucks! I'm in 37b a lot. There can be days you don't see anything and days you see a good handful. More often I don't see anything.

Congrats on your hunt

260 Rem or 6.5 creedmoore???
Zeke-BE replied to lionhunter's topic in Rifles, Reloading and Gunsmithing
To clarify my last post I haven't started to build on it so I don't have any -
260 Rem or 6.5 creedmoore???
Zeke-BE replied to lionhunter's topic in Rifles, Reloading and Gunsmithing
I have neither rifles. But I want to build a light weight couse mid range gun. I decided the creedmoor. After much investigation I chose creedmoor. In the end you won't go wrong with either they are so close. And to add fuel to the fire but I also called phoenix custom rifle about a muzzle brake and he just seemed annoyed with me. I was just thinking maybe he was having a bad day but maybe that is his personality -
22-250 or .243 for yotes and mulies
Zeke-BE replied to AR15RDY's topic in Rifles, Reloading and Gunsmithing
.243 for me. Just build a load development for deer and use it on yotes. Then it's ready for deer if you need it. Since it's set up for deer your bullet will be heavier for those long range yote shots if need be. -
Wow!!!! Best of luck

Looks fun
