Awesome Job guys. Congrats to you both.

Thanks for sharing your story. Great Buck... Congrats.

Anybody have a Rinehart 3D target just collecting dust. Looking for one thats fairly new not one thats been shot up. Woodland Buck or Mule Deer Buck, I have seen some blemished ones online for $109 however I thought I would start asking here first. I would also consider a bear/javelina target. Its for my kids to get some practice before their hunts. Just PM what you have and price. Thanks

Thanks, I saw that however I want them to practice on a life size target. I believe it will be better practice. They have been shooting at a block target for years now. They need to start learning angles and shot placement on a true animal. Thanks,

Congrats, you are going to love it...

You are going to love the action. Very nice. Both my boys have Tikka's and they love them...

14yr old Daughter makes NT B&C
Stallone A. replied to Randyh2412's topic in Rifle hunting for Coues Deer
What a stud of a buck that is. The smile on your daughters face says it all. Congratulations to your success. Keep up the good work. I can't wait to take my daughter on her first big game hunt... (5 more years LOL) -
I just switched over to a Carter RX2 and I love it. It reminds me of my Timney Trigger that are on all my rifles. Very smooth. They are worth the $$$.

Any of the calibers that were mentioned are great. I purchased the Tikka .243 for my Son and purchased .7mm-08 for my nephew. Both are the Tikka T3 youth model. I wish I could upload a video I made years back when I was faced with the same decision as you. I had borrowed a .243 and a 7mm-08 from a friend and had my son and nephew shoot. My nephew at the time was 13 and my son 8 and I let them pick which caliber was right for them. It was so funny to see the reaction on my 8 year old sons face after shooting the .243 to the 7mm-08 (it was priceless). As you can see I purchased the .243 do to recoil but my 13 year old nephew chose the 7mm-08. Now If you are purchasing the gun for Elk I would go with the bigger caliber. I don't know if Tikka makes a .260 but I can say out of the box the Tikka in my opinion makes the best compact and light weight rifle for kids. The action is very crisp and the trigger is great. No need to put a timmney on this gun. Hope this helps...

I have a bunch of .308 Brass for sale. I would like to sell everything in a bundle, however there are a bunch of different manufactures from Blackhills 140 pieces, Federal 100 pieces, Winchester 60 pieces, Federal 80 pieces, Fusion 20 pieces, and SSA 20 pieces. I feel $65 would be fare for everything. Blue Ammo Box is not a part of sale.

Not Yet but hopefully soon... thx

This bow is SOLD, -
LOL, I got to admit its pretty funny however give the guy a break, he is new to coues whitetail and probably got all excited for a good sight at a great deal. He probably did not see it was from two years ago. But just to clarify the Sight has been SOLD... Sorry...

I have an almost new Spot-Hogg 7 Deadly Pin Wrapped with Cameren Hanes first and last pin are .10 all the rest are .019. I bought this for my son and 7 pins are to many pins for him so we went with a 3 pin instead. In my opinion Spot Hogg makes one of the best sights out there on the market today. I have this sight on my Mathews switchback and their Hogg-Father on my Chill R. I am asking $120. Thanks Anthony 602-326-9680

.308 Secret Sauce??? (Loading Question)
Stallone A. posted a topic in Rifles, Reloading and Gunsmithing
I was just wondering if any of you guys can help me out with making a load for my .308? A friend of mine is helping load some rounds however we have not found the secret sauce yet that my rifle likes. So far it hates Berger Bullets we tried many different loads and seating depths but could not group anything more than a inch. We are using VARGET POWDER. My rifle loves Blackhills Gold 168gr A-Max however we are trying to build a better hunting round for my rifle. As of right now we just purchased Lapua Brass and Hornidy ELD-X 178gr bullets? We have not loaded anything yet. I know its all trial and error but its expensive to figure out. I have a Remington 700 action with a 20in Tactical Barrel 1:10 twist rate. Any Help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance, -

.308 Secret Sauce??? (Loading Question)
Stallone A. replied to Stallone A.'s topic in Rifles, Reloading and Gunsmithing
Thanks Coues Sniper, Yes I have great groups with the A-Max Bullets however last season my son shot his bull elk with it. He dropped the elk in its tracks, he was flopping around for a couple of minutes so we got closer to put another round in him and he just got his footing and took off. Very Little blood (4 drops) and to make a long story short we could never find him. I feel if we had a better bullet like a Berger or ELD-X the initial devastation would have been greater and we would have never lost that bull. I have shot many Coues Deer with the A-max with no problems but an Elk is a lot bigger. I just never want to have that happen again...That sounds like a shot placement issue, not a bullet issue. Yes I agree maybe 2 or 3 inches lower and we would have never had that problem. It was my sons first big game hunt at 12 yrs old, He probably caught him in the back strap and stunned him for a while. However there are better hunting rounds than the A-Max and every little bit counts. All he needed was 2 extra seconds... dang, that's a bummer! Sorry to hear that for your boy. Did your son dust himself off and get back in the game? It was the last 2 hours of the hunt when he shot him. He hunted for 5 days put 20 miles on his boots and said he can't wait to go again. So I think he wants to get back as soon as possible. The Question is when... Hopefully he will get a coues deer tag this year. -
