    Vane Weight

    I’ve been anal about arrow weight consistency and I’ve not cared one bit. Never saw a substantial accuracy difference inside of 100 yard or shooting broadheads between the two and not caring as much has saved a lot of headache and time. Don’t sweat petty stuff. As long as the arrows are all...

    45-70 elk bullets

    I’ve thought about trying their 300gr shock hammers! I’m interested to see/hear how they do for you!

    45-70 elk bullets

    That’s the end result I’m hoping for! oh for sure! They get hit with that it’ll be like getting hit by a dumb truck at 30mph

    Weight training programs

    Honestly P90X is still a great program to utilize for hunters. I usually do some sort of bastardized version at the gym to this day

    How do they do super sonic? I like the Hornady subx because you can load them up to around 1600fos and that’s about where I want my loads to be. I do like a mono bullet though especially for punching through elk bone!

    45-70 elk bullets

    That’s awesome. I think I’ve pretty much settled on the Hornady 410gr subx and cast 405s with gas checks. Get both worlds. The lead cast definitely feels “pure” to shoot out of that old gun but I’m a millennial and I like new things too hahaha a high wall and a sharps is on my list to get. Love...

    45-70 elk bullets

    Hell yeahz You think using the bigger die and a gas check will solve that problem or should I just stick with the bigger die and only use a gas check if the die doesn’t quite get the results??

    45-70 elk bullets

    Yeah it’s bummer but I’ll never sell that gun. I’m just going to use the hell out of it now lol. I like that it’s a long barrel and the guy my grandpa bought it from put another octagon barrel on it. I am going to put a skinner peep on it since I’m not a fan of buckhorns/V sights but other than...

    45-70 elk bullets

    A 500gr hammer lol it would be fun and probably would stop till it hit a rock or tree on the other side! but even though it’s not a fast round I like the idea of being above 1500fps

    45-70 elk bullets

    1600-1700 FPS is my target speed range for sure, I like the idea of jacketed bullets for expansion reasons and the FTX and Barnes are supposed to expand at low fps. Im just completely unfamiliar with lead cast on animals but I’m not opposed to them, my grandpa cast his own 350 & 405gr for cowboy...
