    More youth success

    It was nice meeting and talking with your camp on the mountain, good group of guys teaching these young kids what it’s all about. This deer went to a deserving kid, maybe we will see you again next year, we will keep in touch with you.

    Kodiak Canvas 10x14 Tent Review - 2017

    That's a good idea, is it canvas or cloth? I have a heavy duty vinyl tarp I put down underneath the tent. I put a vinyl tarp under the tent and the cloth painter tarp inside. My vinyl tarp is 1 foot larger all the way around so mud will not splatter on the sides during a rain storm.Just curious how you stake down the tent if your tarp is wider then the the tent. Do you put stakes through the tarp?

    Falken Wildpeak MT

    I've only used the A/T's had them in my Yukon and now have the AT3's on my jeep. My dad has run the A/T's on his F250 for years with good results. No experience with the M/T.
  4. Im interested in the barrel if it's available.

    Small Mouth Fishing on the Black River

    Keep in mind the higher up the black you fish the harder it was hit by the fire. Fish to be had but still in recovery mode.

    WY - Whose in?

    Can someone tell me how to purchase a preference point? I didn't do this when I put in and now it won't give me the option. I assume there is a period when the draw is going on that you can't do anything. I was told by the game and fish I have until The end of August to buy it. Thanks for any help.

    Parallax or Side Focus Importance

    I was worried about the parallax adjustment because at first I would forget to adjust it. I came across this video which helped me to better understand what it does. Seems to go along with what Lance is saying. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=6ziKTDIMCig

    Does the set come with the FL, Neck and seating die, or just the FL and seating die?

    draws not over

    I've been waiting for the leftover tags to show up so I can get my kids a tag, when I was looking last night it showed up that they were drawn for turkey and javelina. Looked at the credit card and it was charged yesterday! I guess they are still processing apps and I don't have to pay another app fee for a left over tag! Christmas came early!!

    I just purchased the 10x14 from this company. I purchased it for $549 no tax and free shipping. I got my tent in less then a week and it was on back order. I was really impressed!

    2014 Rewind

    You seem to make every year a great one! You can even add all the pictures of those you've helped which is phenomenal. Is that trout from Lees Ferry? We will have to hit Lees Ferry before our Wyoming trip this year for some practice.

    300 H&H Powders?

    Yeah, I have a lot of this stocked up, and I have seen plenty on the shelves lately. Have you ever tried IMR 7828 or 7828 SSC?
  19. My dad has a 300 H&H that I want to start reloading for, everything that I have read says you can shoot 150-220 grain bullets but that you are wasting what the gun is designed for if you shoot anything less then a 200 grain bullet. I bought some 210 VLD's and emailed Berger to see if they had some load data on H1000 or Retumbo and they recommended not using these powders. They say that there is not enough internal capacity to use these poweders with this bullet. I don't know if it is a long shot but I would like to see if anyone has any experience with reloading for this round and these powders, or anything they have found to work well? They recommend the basics like H4831 and RL22. The capacity is very similiar to the 300 win mag as well as the powders they suggest. Thanks for any help! TDub

    300 H&H Powders?

    Probably what I will do, I will just sale the other powders and focus on H4350 or H4831SC.

    300 H&H Powders?

    I did fail to mention that it is Winchester M70 24 bbl. I know that my grandfather used mainly 4831 with 180grn bullet, I am not sure how far he went with it as regards to grouping them. I am wanting to shoot as far as I can, so looking to really dial it in. Since I am a novice and it seems that many try different powders without load data is there a way I can possiby figure out starting points with these two powders H100 or Retumbo or would I be wise to just go with what is suggested in the manual? I am not wanting to do anything crazy but want to see if I can get better results out of a slower burning powder.... Maybe I can't according to Burger but for some reason I don't believe this. You have seemed to do well with these two powders, so maybe I am overlooking what I might be able to do with 4350 or 4831. This was my exact thought but this was the response I got from Berger. Thank you for getting with us at Berger Bullets. We do not list any load data for use with these two powders in the .300 H & H Magnum. They do not lend themselves well for this application. There is simply not enough internal case capacity to use these powders, to the point that you would not be able to get the proper charges into the case let alone be able to seat a bullet properly if you could compress the charge enough. Please do not hesitate to get back with us if we can be of further assistance for you.

    300 H&H Powders?

    Have you tried other powders? What grain bullets are you shooting? I'm a novice when it comes to reloading and thought I might do better with a slower burning powder. I might be one of the lucky ones that can shoot the same powder out of all the guns I have! Thanks for the feed back. I know this it not a common round shot anymore but if anyone has played around with this and has any information I would like to hear from you!

    Chronograph

    When I was looking at buying one I read a comment I found to be funny and true. "There are two types of chronographs ones that have been shot and ones that will be shot!" His point was not to go out and spend as much money on one when you can buy 2-3 for that price. I just bought one for about $100 and it has worked great and I haven't had any issues and it is pretty accurate.
  24. After trying to get my daughter her first deer tag and being skunked on the draw and left over tags I purchased a 30A tag over the counter. I should've probably just donated my money to the G&F because thats probably what I am going to do anyways. I have done some research and realize that there is limited access which makes the hunting harder. I learned not to mess with the Klumps as well or get helicoptered in! I am planning to go down a few times to familiarize myself with the area I got her the first hunt in October. If anyone has something for me to consider thats great, don't hesitate to say I am crazy either. I guess I wanted to take my daughter deer hunting bad enough that I made a quick decision! Thanks Tdub
