Thank you trophy hunter I love it!!

Thanx again everyone I had a blast! Haha no we just had some of the bashas freezer paper and we butchered it ourselves.

Thank you guys so much for the input. I appreciate all the info! I was originally looking at the 7 mag, .300 win or the .300 rum. It'll be as custom as I can afford haha

Yes sir mike!! We will be rested!

Thank you everyone:) are you serious flat lander!? What caliber you shooting?

Could it be as simple as that? Say I cleaned them out a tiny bit, would that help them expand without affecting accuracy?

Trust me after all the load development I do not want to switch things up, but I don't get it. My wife's mule deer with the same exact load barely mushroomed and blew through at 640 yards. And that was a dead perfect shot. I didn't think my 30-06 would have the speed and energy to just totally pass through at 640.

I'm definitely not blaming the bullets for shot placement by any means. I made a bad call on wind and I own that! But I don't see how they didn't mushroom at all? Is the bullet only supposed to work if you hit bone?

A couple shots were a little far back just behind the last rib. One shot was lungs and one was just in front of shoulder and hit bone. Do you have to hit bone for a bullet to expand?

The middle is one that I picked out of the off side. Good guess hunt harder! Velocity was 1844 fps with 1396 lbs of energy. Must need at least 2000 lbs for them to work?

I'm just in camp verde! You can definitely text me! I enjoy those nasty pack out jobs! As long as I'm not working I'm in! 928-202-9947 Joel

Gosh dang that's an awesome shed! I love big fives!

Hey everyone. I would like to get into the muzzleloader Scene and have absolutely no knowledge as far as they go. I would really love some input as far as a starting point muzzleloader that is accurate but won't break my wallet. Thanks for any help!

Gosh I wish I had the money!!

It all started when I found a spot and killed my 140" mule deer last year. I knew the spot was good and it lead to my wife and brother drawing the tag this year. I knew it was going to be good! I got a really late start and didn't start scouting until 2 weeks before the actual hunt. But it all started good and I continued seeing the same bucks for the next 2 weeks leading up to the hunt. I was anxious and just knew we would see something good eventually. I found about 6 0r 7 bucks that my wife and brother said they would definitely shoot! I took tons of videos of them and drooled until opening morning came. On opening morning my brother couldn't be there so it was just my wife and I. Right off the bat, we glassed up the biggest buck I had found that my wife fell in love with. but unfortunately he was to far and immediately after we saw the next biggest buck and started to set up for the shot. She was all ready to go and took a shot.... miss annnnd miss. we were really heart broken but knew there would be another chance. after seeing some bucks way to far off the day ended and my brother showed up Friday night. Saturday morning started amazing when we glassed up the monster 2 point I had been seeing right off the bat. We started to move for a shot right away knowing other people were around. We got into a spot where we could get a shot. my brother took a shot and barely missed!! I thought he had hit him and stupidly said hit. he wanted to make sure and let the next shot ring out followed by a loud thump, he dropped in his tracks! Monster two was down! I was so excited to see him in front of my brother. Sunday morning came and at very first light we spotted the biggest buck again and started setting up for the shot. She let one ring out and again, I made a bad call and said miss. (bad eyes I guess) but luckily my brother saw a hit. as we watched him he started stumbling and fell. we couldn't believe it!! 2 big bucks down within two days!! what an amazing hunt.. and to top it off she killed this bear about two weeks before her deer hunt:)
