Nice buck! 2 to go good luck.

Anybody ever see any animals taken at 1000 yds with a muzzleloader shooting legal for Arizona loads? Maybe with a gun shooting standard gun powder but not with any blackpowder substitute legal for muzzy hunts .The average animal shot with a muzzy is definitely inside 300 yds and most are 100 or less .A little homework on the subject will show that the gun shooting blackhorn max loads and legal bullets don't have the energy left in it to make a clean kill. Most are rated for 500 yds max on animals due to the rapid loss of energy and inability to expand .

I'm no expert been on a spring hunt and was calling in a bird and got a bear instead.He got to 20 yards and didn't care what noise I made .Then I just had the fall tag and blew it not once but twice.Know how far your gun will pattern and don't put half your shot into the side of a tree .Also remember your calling and sound like food so keep your back to a tree and be ready for anything. GOOD LUCK !!

If your going to lop off the barrel anyway just run a 18 inch ar15 suppressed .

Piggy for me and my buddy

.Lance is definitely the guy to talk with. I would guess it's relative to how close you are to max pressure. I'm loaded in the middle of the book for powder but have a long barrel for a 7-08 at 26 inches .I'm also running lapua brass and barns copper. Lance is a super cool guy and did answer a lot of my questions about loading and rifle setup.I figure I'll try my load suppressed and see how the brass looks and how it shoots .I'm going to run the chronograph to see what it does for velocity. I WAS RUNNING AT 3034 before .

You need to back off on your load for your suppressor.You can have issues with over pressure .You are essentially adding length to the barrel and adding back pressure from the can.I to will have to back down my load for my 7-08 as I developed it before I had the can and now I want to run suppressed.

Congratulations. I've yet to recover a barns copper bullet they seem to pass right thru.They have done there job with a few elk and a California pig but I'd like to see the bullet after it does its work.

The only thing I wouldn't hunt with a 300 is a javalina. A 150 gr at like 3200 fps made a mess of things.Shot was at about 10 feet .Instant field dress .Pig flew about 3 feet got one front and one back quarter .Blew the insides right out

It sucks to see fellow hunters complaining about unfair advantage and wishing to take away things from fellow hunters.At that rate we all will be hunting with our bare hands because everyone can complain about something not being fair about how someone else hunts according to the rules.

Midway has a cva accura on sale 589.99 and your choice of 50cal or45 cal

Nice job to bolth of you!!

Congratulations.That's some thick nasty stuff there to have to pack out thru.

My problem is I've got 3 of them a Winchester 101 3 barrel set from 1968 or 9 Damm near new only had 50 rounds thru one barrel .The other is a cenergy that just came back from Browning I haven't shot and last is a old antonio zolie ritmo I haven't shot all 32 barrels .I haven't had the time and I need some coaching cause I can't seem to hit sh*t with a shotgun .I forget to follow thru my shot.

Second for Dons they had a bunch of high end stuff in there. Just don't use the gunsmith the old man is gone and a kid was working there and did a number on my new 300 win when it went in for a break a few years back.I about made them buy the gun .

Congratulations

I'm new to suppressors but I do believe it states if they are legal where you are going to take them you must have all your documents and declare them just as you do with your gun.If you get caught it will probably be a bad day for you if you try and just bring it.

A bunch of my buddies had tags for this hunt.I heard it was tough .15 tags in camp 3 hit elk and only one recovered.One was gut shot and wasn't given enough time to expire and got jumped and never found again.The other was a high shoulder and didn't get enough to do its job.

Awsome job! The kids hunts are so much fun.Its even better if you have more than one hunter as the get some competition going for who's animal is bigger .Personally I get more enjoyment from seeing the kids learn and hunt than I do on my own hunts.Congrats to a new hunter on a great cow .

The elk were still screaming last Friday and Saturday in 6a mid day. Good luck to everyone.

I was up the 83 in 6a and had 3 opportunities at turkey.The first was getting picked off moving.I parked my sxs past a water hole and did a hike south in between two other water holes the birds use and didn't see anything.On my way back to my sxs I had to pass a third water hole that the dam is along the trail and as I was going by I saw birds.I tried to close the distance and it went to sh*t I was busted .I still got two shots and missed .The first was a bird in the ground at around 70 and the other was in the air at about the same.The second was where I called a bear a few years earlier on a turkey hunt .I cought the birds on my way out .Put the sxs in park and grabbed the gun .I was so focused on the birds I never saw the tree I sent a shot into .The third was a hen in the road that just gave me a look and was gone. The birds were quite and didn't respond to any calls.I only had a day and a half to hunt.The elk were still making noise and I did get into a good group for awhile. Did see a few squirrel but didn't shoot any.Saturday afternoon I was all loaded up and hit the button to start the truck and no bueno.Dead battery .That's twice in two years that's happened in the same spot.Long story short I was able to jump the truck with the sxs and get home .Man I suck with a shotgun.

My dad and his friend Aaron a few years ago on Aaron's first elk hunt .Bolth are in there 70s

Anarchy outdoors makes a muzzle break you could add to your muzzy and they do work.I put one on my paramount pro and it shoots 115 gr of blackhorn .It took the recoil down quite a bit.It might work for you with your son.

Huge congrats !! Stud bull .

How close to the power lines was it? Looks like Godzilla.😁
