Long-Range Mastery: Choosing the Best Calibers for Elk Hunting and Coues Deer
Dan replied to Gunners' Review's topic in Long Range Shooting

They just released water from roosy . pretty muddy now give it a week or so to clear up

Depends on how much you want your bullet to jump Maxim would be touching the lands Work your way back until you find your node( Best accuracy )
-
I shoot a 338 edge and a 338 terminator ------ Both great long range rifles ----- Edge is cheaper to reload than the Lapua-- That may have something to do with it
-
Need my muzzlebrake timed on my 338. Who is a good gunsmith in the valley ?
-
Pears are starting to ripe low (3500-4000 ft ) Depends where you hunt on how low they will go 😊

The beeline will be next !!!!!
-
Drove up the beeline yesterday and Mt Ord is moonscaped !! Looks like a heavy rain could cause major problems on the north west side of the beeline with the drainage.. I think there is going to be bad flooding issues both there and the 188 !!! Don't know if that chaparral will ever grow back !!

I have used the BR2 since it first became available. Never let me down. A lot faster in hunting situations than the exbal programs that we used before. Have not had a reason to try anything else. Not saying that the new ones are not better but if it ain't broke I ain't going to fix it !!

New muzzleloader... Need help!!!
Dan replied to Coues Archer's topic in Rifle hunting for Coues Deer
Got a new CVA Optima V2 50 cal.with the Nitride barrel shoots 1"-1.5" with 100 grs by volume blackhorn 209 barnes 290 gr TMZ sabot. With that moa I'm good out to 200 yrds. Don't need sub MOA with a muzzleloader for hunting. If your shooting 2" moa at a 100yrds you POI at 300 yrds is 6" which is in the kill zone of any big game. At 250 yrds 95% of muzzleloaders have already run out of enough velocity to open the bullet and energy needed for a clean kill . The new CVA Muzzleloaders are really nice muzzleloaders. Easy to clean and maintain and shoot as good as any other muzzleloader that cost twice as much or more. If you really want a longrange muzzleloader (300 yrds +) be ready to spend a lot of money!! -
lets talk effective distance for caliber/bullet weight
Dan replied to Tac's topic in Long Range Shooting
I know it can be difficult for some people to tell the difference between a rock and a person . I always have a spotter when I shoot to make sure that it is a rock that were shooting at and not a person in rock camouflage whether it be up or down canyon 😁😁😁 -

The gravity part is the easy part. Just make sure your loads are single digit or low teens. Reading the wind separates the men from the boys when shooting out past 700 yrds . Also knowing whether you have a right or left barrel twist (most barrels are right hand twist but there are some left hand out there) to add or subtract your spin drift to your windage setting . I think the best thing you can do is shoot rocks as far as you can when ever you can. Up canyons across canyons down canyons. Turning rocks into gravel at long range will teach you how to read the different winds and most important will give you the confidence that you can make that long shot when it counts . Just my 2 cents.
