I used hodgdons data off the web site for the 165GMX

I’ve had good luck with the 168 in my m70 300wsm using Varget. I was just over 3000fps.

I have never tried one but they do look interesting. I like the idea of loading to a speed, SD, ES you’re looking for then dialing in at the range. I don’t know if they would save any ammo during load development. I think it would save some time with less time back and forth to the range. But I could be wrong. Also a good idea for commercial ammo. You could just buy what you want and get it as accurate as possible. Then possibly move the brake back and forth between guns like a suppressor.

www.hodgdonreloading.com should have good information for you. Same with the nosler web site and the barns web site.

Bear meat makes great burger. I mix it with 10-15% beef fat, it’s my favorite. My problem is what to do with the hide. One bear rug is plenty and I feel guilty throwing them away.

Cal Ranch in Prescott Valley has them in stock as of a few days ago. Only selling 1 box a day

That unit needed it bad

You need to worry more about winter kill. Colorado has plenty of feed to grow antlers every year.

I sold to Josh last year. He did not buy any chalk.

Bump for a great jacket. Ive had one since 2012 and it’s my go to. I’m tempted on this one.

Like a lot of people I’ve been shooting a bow for most my life. I would recommend learning to take care of your own bow. Having a press is the hardest part. No shop will take the time to properly set up and tune your bow.

We need 5 years of rain like this in 19a so it can have some fawn survival.

Yup, 1-2 every 10 miles is what I find. Some guys find pockets of sheds but I never have. Even if I watch 10-15 bulls during winter it seems they start moving around the same time they drop and scatter them everywhere.

My last 3 kills have been 300, 440, 450. All one shots kills. One miss at 550. I hand load and shoot as often as I can.

I have seen some good action in years past at this time. I think this is when they start to separate from the summer herds. It will quiet down a little then pick back up as the rut peaks.

Lots of good info. After a ladder what depths do you adjust seating, .01, .001?

I have 2 model 70s. Both shoot 3/4 MOA or better with hand loads. I dont know why they are so hard to sell.

Hike 200 miles

Shoot me a PM. I cant figure it out on my phone to send you one.

Does he have interest in a 300wsm?

Radios result in far more dead animals than trail cams ever will. Trail cams asssit in targeting specific animals.

The calf crop this year was great. Some heards were almost %50 calfs. I completely lost the elk during the first cow hunt. My daughter had the tag and we were on themopening morning then one more day that she could hunt. I was able to get a few heards patterned prior to my hunt. I spend a lot of time in the unit and can tell you they over hunt everything. This deer season was dangerous with the amount of people.

If you see this before your hunt ends PM me. I killed 15 min into the hunt and will put you on them.

Get to know the units around Prescott and have a quality hunt every few years and fill in with hints in Colorado

When did a 200" or just under typical become not a giant? Sure larger are killed but that is a special deer.
