Sheesh man. Crushing em. How'd you like B zone? I keep trying to talk myself into going up there with a bear tag as well but I never commit.

Mine always seemed to love the ladies. Retired now as well, feel bad about that sometimes. The 130 SST was my favorite.

The next NWTF monthly meeting is tomorrow, Monday Oct 20th at the Hamburger Factory in Poway. Start time is 6:30 pm but many show up sooner than that to shoot the breeze. No need to be a member! We are talking everything fall hunting.

Very cool! Thanks for sharing!

How are we missing the point? I spent more days helping other turkey hunters this year than I did hunt them myself. Many of us here devote tremendous amounts of our own finite time, money and resources helping those communities. Helping Youth Hunters 26' Disabled Vet with his youth son the...

Hey, thats an idea! Since were talking about "my truth" and I help a lot of newer hunters, I wonder if I can identify as a hunt-ed instructor and apply for those tags?

I'd say good enough this close to hunting season. Even if the bullet impacts further from your aim point than you like, it will still pound em. I've never shot any local deer with anything bigger than a 270 or 6.5 and the deer hardly make it anywhere.

Nice, gotta love early season rifle tags.

Surf and turf! Very cool.

Love it.

I wasn't so much touching on the ammo itself (I know that was mentioned, I am unsure if that is true, maybe someone else knows?) but more so the cartridge design. Lack of belt, higher BC bullets, ect... that leads to a more likley outcome the bullet hits where you want it. That said, I...

The PRC is inherently more accurate which makes it better for hunting. If you already had a 7mag, buddies all had them or had some other reasons, then its worth looking at. That does not seem to be the case here.

Buddy, with that type of track record, I feel like you owe it to the girl to take an elk with her. A good brake will cut recoil in 1/2, think .243 level. Maybe have the smith work on the trigger a little and upgrade the scope while you're there. It'll do great, especially with your familiarity...

Most people have a problem admitting they don't like recoil so props to you. I would not trade more gun for something you hate shooting or cant shoot well. Talking "smaller" elk calibers. I've shot 8 or so with my .270, I found the 130SST to work very well. Remember if you stick with a smaller...
