ALL BOW TO KING LARK!!

More like farmersonly.com! looking for a date? I thought you were married lol

And it starts!!!!! Nice deer, hope it ain't a nasty thread like most others. I love a good ole chit storm but you seem wholesome. Not sure bout the rich kid comment? But then I don't know much. Congrats on a good deer, love for The Lord, and the mag article.

I couldn't tell you how many craw dads I caught next to larks place as a kid! Spent a lot of time in that area growing up real close to it. I now live in the high AZ desert with just as many freedoms but it's just not the same as up up there. Good pics.

Haha! 6 is about top speed like lark says. It ain't running at the moment but rolls good.

It's the trike style you could say. Tape measure says 88-90" depending on where I hold it. I figure a few extra inches on each side of the trailer wouldn't hurt. The tractor websites I've looked at say 85" I believe and most standard car trailers I looked at are only 83"

I don't own one but do have a truck that I take out in almost as many places as a 4wheeler goes and maybe more in some cases. I wouldn't be caught dead in a truck that's not 4x4. I figure you buy a 4wheeler or side by side so you don't have to beat up your truck? Might as well be 4 wheel drive.

No water marks allowed man!!!! Nice bull bud.

Rem 700 BDL, 7mm rem mag. Timney trigger, pillar bedded stock, vortex scope. Been trying to load for this gun but it hates every thing I put thru it. Was hopin to get some 175 game kings to shoot but no. Best group 1.5". 162's no, 139 hornady does around am inch but I want a bigger bullet and tighter group. Do I just suck it up and stay with the 139's? Rebarrel to a better one (stock now)? I'm using norms brass, federal match primers and have tried 3 different powders. Shot best with 7838 and 4350. This is the first gun that's messin with me. I even sucked it up and Pm'd a few of the REAL reloaders on here for help lol. They know and do more than me but nothing's worked. I'm thinking the barrel is the issue since it's not like a 2 foot group lol but I'd like under an inch. I took a few loads out to 300 and they opened up accordingly as well

500 meters. Which is almost 550 yards. May bad for not putting a unit of measure next to my 500, I'll try harder next time

Fantasy football doesn't cause arguments or name calling, maybe if some members could discuss political topics without turning a thread into a bashing she wouldn't mind. Just saying so if threads are PC and correct then is ok?

CR-10. yes and yes. lots!!

I've had bad luck cleaning copper on older guns before, one in particular took about 30 rounds of good military ammo to bring it back to shooting a 3" group! after copper cleaning it opened up to just over a foot. I wiped copper in this 7mm last night, wasn't real bad so hopefully it'll shoot when I get to take it out again Sunday.

honestly bill I have a few other hunting rifles that shoot better even if they don't need to. I'm not looking to do anything with it other than get it to shoot better. I like playing with guns and accuracy and this paticular gun is messing with me. My 1963 Winchester 30-06 shoots clovers even though it's had thousands of rounds thru it. Being that they have been mostly cast lead doesn't hurt the fact. This gun is just an irritant that I want to make better.

I got a 7mm he can play with haha!!!

500

This new one I got loves the cat box! I'd like her to get hooked on coconut oil instead. Breath would smell better!

Thanks for the replies. My case prep is good. I load for several other rifles and most all are moa or better some with factory barrels. I blame the gun because like Lark, I can hit anything!!! Joking but really I'm not a bad shot. I'm cleaning copper tonight and actually haven't done that since I got this gun. I'm gonna try one or two other powders and read the betgers bullet length from the lands setup. After that I'll mess with the scope and crown if need be. Thanks for the input.

I just wanna know if it was a 27 or 33 buck before this one gets locked down like the rest of the big deer threads!! Still guessing 27. No specifics needed.

bingo. Muledeer has more rifles bouncing around on his floorboards then beer cans. not this one! And my other truck guns that you've seen, best up and dingy will outshoot this one any day! Haha!

I shot one and 3 from the road. Tied them up for you to find. I only took a hind just like we discussed!! Your slippin bro.

Cleaned well after the trigger and pillars installed. This evening I only shot 5 and waited 15 min between shots hoping it was a heat issue

I'll look into that. The crown looks good visible as you said but maybe?

Gun is not new, atleast 15 yrs old. I split the difference max loads between my three loading books. Turns out they all were very high for this gun. A few grains before max I was getting pressure signs. Bought all the fancy measuring tools that I've never used before, but still get crap groups. Think I got a used barrel issue.

Wish I could help any guy on here (who's been on here awhile.) but I have no clue!!!! Although your bein an "E-scouter" your not! You've been here long enough for an honest answer but I just don't have one, sorry.
