    257 Weatherby loads

    I have a vanguard and I shot 100grn Tsx barnes with imr 4831 based off the barnes load data and it grouped 5 rounds inside a quarter at 100 Rl 22 was second best and I'm sure I could have dialed in a good load but I got lucky with imr 257 is super accurate and after some convincing from guys on this site I love barnes for accuracy and performance on game

    Zeiss Conquest HD 15x56 vs Swarovski SLC 15x56

    Swaro. Zeiss are fine but will lose value quicker and customer services is not nearly swaro. In 10 years swaro will still fetch a good price and you can upgrade. If you must have new HD. I'd do meopta 15 hd. I did side by side with Zeiss and like the color contrast better and I think a bit brighter but that was a fairly quick side by side
  5. So I, loading for my sons 7mm-08 with 140 gr accubond nosler. He has a mule deer hunt soon Anyway. The factory nosler ammo is shorter significantly that what their load data calls for Same with hornady factory and load data They aren't listing as max o.a.l length but is that why there is a difference on load data. It's max length

  10. So on my last hunt while driving back to camp in 2x4 my engine light popped and my 4lo light started blinking sling with my traction control light and the light for anti roll airbag shut off Truck drove normal. No gauges spiked but I couldn't switch into 4x4. No movement in transfer case Lights stayed on. I was to far to get to a shop and didn't want to stop my sons hunt so we were fine withou4x4 Then about 10 starts later the lights went off and 4x4 was ok Drove home All good and then the lights popped on again Same deal Drive it abot 10 starts or so and they are off I pulled the wheels and didn't see and plugs or wires off or broken I traced the wheel wires to the engine area and all connected Any thought on where or what this might be? I'm in north phx if there is a shop that thinks they can figure it out

    Excellent shooting rifle very accurate. I have the hand load data. It shoots ballistic tip very well. Such as hornady SST The stock has some light surface scratches from field use. Barrel is very clean and no rust. I'm the original owner. Barrel broke in correctly and always cleaned Trigger is adjustable Scope is excellent it's weavers highest level scope 2-10x42 wih ebx reticle Very clear scope compares to my vortex viper Wide field of view for easy target pick up Sling not included Price is firm I'm in n phx
  16. So I had one camera on a tank and as the water dried up and my camera was further away someone moved it to a rock that was closer. Thank you I suppose. Really funny though Then lesson learned. I had a spor that bear were in camera and I left it along for past 8 weeks. So excited yesterday to check it out Oops. Secure to a strong tree. The tree blew over two days after I hung it. Ahhhhh so bummed It was a really tall tree buy it was dead so down it went.

  20. so I'm intrigued by the accuracy from solid copper bullets like Barnes ttsx. So I thinking of loading up some for either my 30-06 in 168grn for an October bear hunt Or in 257wby 100gr for a November coues hunt I know shot placement is always key But assuming it's not a heart shot but say a lung shot and no bone contact at between 300 and 400 yards Do solid copper perform better on a tougher hide and skin animal like a bear. My fear on a coues is it runs straight through and maybe a long track is in order In. Looking at Barnes website it seems like most of their video showed African hunts
