Excellent job to all of you!!

Put the bullet where it needs to go and the cartridge becomes irrelevant within reason. Put the bullet where it needs to go.

Choot em.

Bench, bipod and rear bag.

5guys, several experienced shooters have posted here and elsewhere that there is no discernible difference in accuracy from blems. I'm not that experienced, but add me to that list.

I stopped checking when they were $47 and even higher. Glad to see the price come back to reality. Sold out now but thanks OP.

@loboscout it was a pleasure chatting and making a deal today. Thanks.

Cool stuff and nice plan. Congratulations on the bull!

Now you're part of the bug bull club. Congrats and solid work!

Vowell, it may be worth an email to the WM. If it is a positive response, it will also be documented. I've seen almost a dozen clearly abandoned cameras in my last 4 trips and none appearing to be functional.

Copy and pasted from another media. Beautiful rams and country, OP. It is nice to see the story.

One of the best predator hunters I've known to exist smoked a cigarette every time he started moving.

Number 2.

Mentioned before, for both ease of use and quality of content, one of the best things about Coueswhitetail.com is the unlimited file size on uploads. OP, screenshotting your photo on a phone would give it a fresh JPG concerning any data issues. Good luck, that package should go quick!

Works here.

I was pissed at Optics Planet for saying some 143 ELDX were in stock in August 2020 and not shipping my 5 boxes until Februrary 2022. Turns out it was a blessing in disguise because the bullets went from $0.34 to $0.56 per piece and they honored the OG price. Could have been worse, wish I could have done the same with some primers!

10% below MAX is a good starting point as a rule of thumb for most powders. While not necessary or what you want in this case, no pun, H4895 specifically is known for being able to reduce much farther than that, up to 40% below MAX, making it a great powder for reduced recoil loads. Just an FYI.

Overpressure. I don't know the load but it sure looks hot in your gun, there are at least 3 pressure signs there - Stiff bolt, flattened primers, ejector marks and some case swipe. Full stop, imo.

No disagreement there.

Would anyone speculate otherwise? I don't look forward to hearing about pressure in the units still open in December/January.

Desert mule deer get a prorate for sure, a different animal if you will. Again, just a wonder that young mule deer have endured too much OTC archery harvest.

FIFY. I'm mostly kidding and I agree with the rest of your post. That said and to further agree, the harvest in one week between species with consideration to the population of each, makes me wonder if young mule deer have been more subject to advancing archery equipment and OTC hunters than the standard explanation of drought, habitat fragmentation, cattle, etc. Just a wonder.
