300 Win Mag hunting loads
SHOOTER replied to no worries's topic in Rifles, Reloading and Gunsmithing
+1 for the 215gr Bergers and H1000 -
I've killed and helped kill a few deer in the wallow fire burn and everyone of them was hard to find even with the picture, rangefinding method. The grass is tall and all the fallen burnt trees look the same. The picture taking method and rangefinding help. As does leaving a buddy from where you shot from and have him vector you in.

I've hunted 6A a few times PM me if you would like and I can get you a few starting points.

How bout them Pics?
-
From the pics I would guess. 310-320. Either way nice bull and I would have a hard time giving him a pass.

Full length or neck sizing?
SHOOTER replied to Lazy-H98's topic in Rifles, Reloading and Gunsmithing
Bump shoulder .002" with a FL die and never look back! I went through the neck sizing phase and it was a pain to FL size every 3 or 4 reloads to get my brass to chamber, I only have 1 rifle that it made a slight noticeable difference to Neck size. it seemed to take the gun from a 1MOA shooter to a 5/8 to 3/4 moa gun. The rest of my rifles dont seem to have a preference, After going through it all I am a FL size only guy now. -
Please explain?

I show mailing for 3 out of my 5 apps. As a non resident I don't think I got 3 tags. Have buddy's that show 6 out of 6 and some that show 1 out of 5 . No correlation and no way 3 guys I know got bighorn sheep tags. I don't think this is a back door.

I put in for Az, NM, Colo, UT, and Wy every year..AZ has the absolute worst most user unfriendly website. Colorado regs suck and their website is not far behind. Ut,NM and Wy websites are great. Az should take notes from them.

To Rail or Not to Rail, that is the question?
SHOOTER replied to Hoss50's topic in Rifles, Reloading and Gunsmithing
Nothing is wrong with them for most people i know many people who love them. Even after being lapped I have seen them do some weird things and cause some tracking issues on a long range rig. They just aren't for me I will stick with steel rails and rings -

SHOOTER replied to Hoss50's topic in Rifles, Reloading and Gunsmithing
Nothing wrong with leupold bases. You could not give me a set of talleys. I prefer a steel rail and rings. Also doesnt Howa 1500 LA use Rem 700 LA bases? Find a steel rail for Rem 700 long action and you'll be set? -
I dont wear a whole lot camo I prefer earth tones. Deadeye outfitters sells the a ton of clothes that are similar to this and they hardly have any camo ,they seem to be doing very well. Just sayin.... Best of luck with the business!

On that note. I think that would all have to controlled by the trigger/safety. So if he wants his bolt to stay shut he could find an older trigger and put it on his gun.
-
I have old ADL that the bolt locks when the safety is on.

Varget is magic in the .308 ! Panhandle precision has a good series on reloading on youtube check it out you will learn alot. I bet there are some other great videos on there to learn from. Get a good reloading manual for your starting loads. If you can find someone who reloads and have them sit down with you and show how they reload.

I believe the speed restrictions are for the sake of the targets. I could be wrong though.

Never for elk and very little for bear.
-
The bear numbers were really good until they got shot out.( At least that's what I think happened) A few years ago the bears numbers were incredible. In 2014 and 2015 we would tree 2-3 bears a day for a week straight. In 2017-2018 we would be lucky to tree 2 bears all week. Not worth the trip over there now. The last couple years the hounds men have hit em hard. You will see tons of guys with hounds burning the roads till the quota is met. I'm sure if you got up in the wilderness the numbers would get better but it would be very hard to hunt them because 6A is thick timber country.
-
You can't go wrong with either. But if it were me and I had the 7mm stuff already I would go with a tight twisted 7 mm RM. And shoot 160+ grain bullets. The browning fits that bill also take a look at the Christensen Arms mesa too. Both nice rifles.

Anyone had any experience with stockys carbon fiber stocks? Was looking at the Manners EH1 but noticed these were less money with about the same specs and no wait time. They seem like a pretty good deal. Just wondering if anyone has or held one in person and what they thought of them before I buy one. Thanks

I have hunted bear and elk there a little. What do you want to know?
