So if Load A is 100fps faster than Load B at the muzzle what would the difference be at say 200, 500 or 1000yds?

A good friend was told all the powder burns in 16-18" in a 30-06, so he cut off the barrel to 18" to save weight and then added a brake to cut recoil in his son's 30-06. It is a much louder and flashier SOB than his wife's 22" 30-06 with brake. The powder may have burned, but the gasses are still expanding in a longer barrel to provide fps. Many,many years the High Power Silhouette State Championship was held in Yuma and there was a guy from California who brought a 308 with an 18" barrel. You didn't want to be anywhere near him when it went off. Heck of a fireball though in the evening. I don't remember what his load was.

Cool looking bear. Congrats on the streak.

Good luck. Looks like great country.

That's a good idea, is it canvas or cloth? I have a heavy duty vinyl tarp I put down underneath the tent.

I have the same model less side windows. Great tent.

Great buck and I like the grain on it. Did you make it yourself, maple? I have a Nov hunt in the same unit and will start scouting in a week.

How tall is it from the bottom of the gun storage part to the top?

Happy Birthday Amanda, hope you are enjoying your day. Today is also my son's, my nieces and my nephew is at the hospital with his wife expecting their first hopefully sometime later today.

Congrats guys.

Great story and one heck of a buck.

Great buck! I find that if I post from my phone sometimes they get posted sideways.

Somebody hook him up with Nature Girl.

I think it’s starting cause goodell sent out a memo to all owners today regarding the national anthem protest.What is this I heard somewhere that the nfl is tax exempt or something like that? Just the NFL League Office. Teams pay taxes.

I'll be going solo, was hoping my son would tag a long. I'll be somewhere in the northern part of 22, chasing squirrels too. Good Luck to everyone else out there.

So is that a CJ3? Do you know what gears it has?

Looking for a Remington 770 in 243 for a youth hunter

Good job making it fun. -
That's great, he is really coming along as a hunter. Probably because he has such a good role model.

Got to camp and set it up just before dark. It was eerily quiet all. No Elk or Yotes. I left camp at sunrise and hunted my way north for half a mile to a tank and sat it until about 1 o'clock. Only saw a elk and her calf, one note and lots of woodpeckers and a few squirrels so I walked back to camp to get my 22 and drove back. As I was getting the 22 loaded and husband and wife were walking up and we talked for a bit. She had a tag so they were going to go up and sit the trick tank. I told them I had not seen any turkeys, or tracks all morning and wished them luck. Well all the squirrels I had seen earlier were nowhere to be found so I went back to camp and decided to drive a few miles to another area. When I got back out onto Houston Mesa Rd I had only gone about a 1/4 mile and came up on four hens in the road. I stopped and grabbed the shotgun and a shell and ran into the forest and took a shot but missed. Back up and to the truck to get another shell and I notice the last hen still on the other side of the road getting to make a beeline across it to catch up with the others. Knowing where she was headed I ignored her and ran into the woods to intercept her, meanwhile my truck is idling on the side of the road with the doors open. I managed to get off a shot that put her down as lady luck would have it. Sure had my adrenalin going. I got back to camp and took a few pictures and the couple from earlier came by and she got to see her first turkey up close. After I plucked and cleaned it a young couple from Pine drove by and saw me put it in the cooler and stopped to chat. I got up early and broke camp and headed out at 7:30 and met another husband and wife who were walking in and stopped to talk and tell them what I knew about the area then headed out. It was refreshing to see three married couples who hunted together as that was something I could never get my wife to do. Two of the couples the wife was the one with the tag and all were genuinely nice people. That's my old Mossberg 500 I hand painted back in about 1985.

24B suggestions for Oct rifle hunt
PRDATR replied to curtimus's topic in Rifle hunting for Coues Deer
Is that an Any Antlerd tag? -
Good Luck. It has been a few years since I was in 33 but just might be my fav unit for deer. I was getting rambunctious on my way home from work seeing everyone headed out.

Felt like I was there right along with you. Big Congrats. Neither of my brothers hunt so it was very special when my brother from NY came out for a few days and went camping and turkey hunting with me in 27. Be was the one who heard a gobble that I set up on and called him in and took him with my brother beside me. It was great.
