Legendary author and outdoorsman Jack O’Connor touted the 270 and slayed big game all over north America, Africa, and elsewhere. One can only imagine what he could have done with the modern ballistics and optics of today in something similar.
The first 2 minutes of this clip with accomplished...
Hmmm. Given Left Hand and no particular order, then:
Savage 110 Ultralite in 6.5 PRC or 280 AI
Christensen Arms Ridgeline in 6.5 PRC or 7mm-08
Browning X Bolt Hell’s Canyon Speed McMillan 6.5 PRC or 7mm-08. I think there are some other X Bolt left handed platforms as well. Might be hard to find...
Like you mentioned, a lot depends on factors such heat waves, terrain, etc. I’m reaching out to 6 miles regularly with my 65mm HD spotting scope (w/tripod) from the house. And with snow on the ground it’s a lot easier viewing at those distances. Maybe a couple of miles with handheld binos (no...
Did a ton of research and ended up with Vortex Razor HD angled 22-48x65. The spotting scope is awesome. Had a different scope 60 power before but not needed and those are bigger/heavier and ended up getting rid of it. If you wanted to shave a few hundred bucks off, the Viper in the 15-45x65 is...
I feel your pain NBK and couldn’t take it any more. Still spend some time in CA but now a resident in the mountains of Idaho and loving it. Recently ordered a new elk caliber rifle over the phone and at the end of the ordering process the ID gal asked...would you like a suppressor? And what a...
Good comments Frank.
InDeepShip - if you contemplate having a gun dog someday and of ever joining a dog training group, many dog training groups will only allow break open shotguns vs semis. Just something to think about.
Thank you Miguel for jumping in and taking the reins of the local chapter. It is a very admirable role. It’s been a few years since I was an active member working on guzzlers but I’ll try and get out there this year with the group.
And nice to hear how you got the bug later in life and how it...
Glad you clarified as lots of configurations (i.e. O/U). Yes, would agree with the other poster about getting into a quality O/U in a used model at that price range. Haven’t owned a CZ shotgun but have heard very good feedback on them. My primary upland game firearm for many years was a 20g...
Hmmm. Would be nice to lighten the load. But even at 3.5lbs, can’t imagine not having my Vortex Razor HD 22-48X65 angled spotting scope. Not promoting Vortex just good scopes in general. Just gives so much detail, coverage, and can use while target practicing. Good luck and keep us posted.
