    Whitetail processing

    Yep I get that .But usually the processor will tell you what the minimum batch of sticks or sausage is say 10 lbs min and what fat they are adding (pork,beef) then set a price per pound .I will say those sticks and sausage have made me hungry.

    Whitetail processing

    Reading this and it sounds like a good screwing. That's a bunch of cash for alot of not deer sticks and sausage after they added the bulk of other meats.My bull elk a few years back dressed out at 399 and wasn't that much .Then you get to the post with all the sticks and sausage and then you just loose it and get hungry.

    Antelope with a Pistol

    What kind of setup are you using to keep the pistol steady? I've got a striker in 22-250 also with a pistol scope on top and it seems like the cross hairs are always dancing around. Same with my contender in 223

    Cva has upped the max powder for the paramount and the pro to 115 gr by weight of blackhorn in the 45 cal muzzle break highly suggested. It's plenty punishing without

    Unit 23 late rifle bull

    Heck yeah nice bull.
  10. Looking for recommendations for kid friendly scope for the next giveaway gun.The rifle is a beautiful savage 110 with a adjustable stock in 7-08. BIG THANKS TO RUBBERDUCKIE for the amazing deal on the rifle .It did come with 30mm rings so something with that tube size. Needs to be kid friendly and at a reasonable price so my financial advisor aka (the wife) won't give me crap about the money spent.It will also give me more $$ to figure out a second and third prize. Maybe a 20 gauge for second and a pair of binos for third depending on my cost. I know several people have wanted to donate and I've tried to set up a zelle or PayPal account but every time I do it seems some one gets into my accounts so I still don't do either. If you'd like to donate you can pm me . Thanks

    Scope recommendations for next year's giveaway gun.

    That's a good deal for sure.The wife has me back on spending lock down. After getting the rifle from rubberduckie .A savage 7-08 110 with the adjustable wood stock.Then it was a 20 gauge shotgun ,binos with a harness,and a 22 single action pistol all for the kids giveaway. Then there was the proof barrel for my 280ai build .She wants me to give her a break. I'll have a scope for sure for the gun and I'll start the sign up for the giveaway at the first of the year and let it run till probably the end of August but the end date will be determined by the kids hunt dates.I want to insure the winners have enough time to get use to there prizes before hunting starts
  12. I was out yesterday shooting my 7-08 and finally was able to chronograph my rounds .It's with a magneto speed .What a pain in the butt with a suppressor on to get it all lined up and reading .But I seem to be shooting slower than it did in the summer. It shot 3034 in the summer (lab radar ) verified Thanks Lance for letting me shoot for data. Yesterday it was 2903 the SD was 9 and the es was 22 for the 5 shot string .The group opened up from all touching to .766 that might be just me . Load is 45.6gr r17 lapua brass and barns ttsx 140gr with federal 215 primer. I need to shoot a copper bullet to hunt California with my dad till he moves to a free state. Any powder ideas for my bullet combo.The gun is a interarms action ( mauser) with a brux 26 inch barrel all work was done by Keith at Phoenix custom rifles.

    Temp stable powder for a 7-08?

    I'm not sure it pulled the link but the article was by gun digest on the effects of humidity

    Temp stable powder for a 7-08?

    The humidity has to do with the drag caused by the change in the air density .Not so much on what is possibly going on inside the case itself. Just what I started to read about yesterday .I didn't get to read the whole article.
  16. One of the guys at work gave me these new binoculars. There Bushnell 10x50 to donate to a young person. FREE TO ANY KID THAT WANTS THEM.

    Temp stable powder for a 7-08?

    I'll see what powder I can find and try each of them .It seemed crazy to drop over 100 fps from shooting in the heat to shooting Saturday in cooler Temps. Thanks guys for the information.

    Temp stable powder for a 7-08?

    Everything has an effect. My dad use to shoot competition and back in the 70 or 80s they did a shoot in Mexico .The loads where made for California enviroment and when they started shooting in Mexico he had issues with his load and had to figure it out quickly. Temp,altitude, humidity, and several other things come into play.I wish I had been around then to learn it all but my parents divorced and it wasn't till I was almost 30 I started shooting and hunting with my dad .

    Temp stable powder for a 7-08?

    I was shooting at Rio Salado yesterday afternoon .The group was with the magneto speed attached.I didn't have anything to flag wind but could feel the left to right and would shoot between the wind as best I could .I think I've got the spread figured out .Measure the two farthest and subtract the Dia of the bullet. Here's the target. The score keeper logo was to the top.

    Scope recommendations for next year's giveaway gun.

    I'd like to stay away from vortex .I bought 4 scopes last time and had two that wouldn't track.There replacements are still new in the boxes sitting on the reloading bench.I figure they might be good for a 22 or just use them when they have a trade in sale and get me a decent scope.

    Best scope for a 110 .223

    With your budget the 4x12 Leopold with the cds dials will do what your asking. Check around there are going to be deals for black Friday.
  24. Crazymonkey

    Any quality spotting scopes out there for sale?

    If you can hunt down a older vortex that they discontinued .I paid 200 bucks for mine off Craigslist and when it broke I sent it back and they upgraded me to a razor .Saved me some $$ and got a good spotter.
