Not going to argue with your assessment. That said, it's the middle of February in WI with no snow, no ice, not enough deer have dropped their antlers, and very few projects to keep my mind occupied. Gonna dig into the Barnes intel and see if I can maybe make it work without losing any fingers :(
Am looking a loading some Badlands Precision Bulldozer 2's for my 300 WSM. Am still very new to this but have had good results from the below loads.
ADG brass
RL 23 powder,65 grains
Fed 215 Primers
200 grain ELD-X .025" off the lands
+/- 2,785 FPS
Am I foolish if I simply swap the 200 gr...
Out of curiosity, did you put this together based on the load charts from Barnes' web site? I was going to give it a try for a 2025 sheep hunt with the possibility of running into Griz.
Sorry to the OP, didn't mean to hijack the thread. I've had good luck with the ADG brass, 65 grains of...
All these comments got my mind working. In the time i've gone from whatever beer I could get my hands on, to Jack and Coke, to Crown and water, to single malt scotch on ice the guy has drank nothing but Captain. I really gotta start giving him more grief about his drink choice.
Can't disagree on the dork part. That said. he's the guy I'd call to bring a bag of lime, shovel, and a sheet of visqueen. No questions asked. Anyway, it's on him to figure out now. This thread is close enough to doing my due diligence.
Got talked into a "let's do a couples trip" vacation that's coming up in a few weeks. One of the guys that's going will ONLY drink Captain and coke but is saying that he can't get Captain Morgan on the entire island of Jamaica. Dug around the internet and didn't really find a definitive...
Set expectations and stick to them, guess that goes along with the honesty theme. Personally, I'd sleep under a tarp and eat saltines for a week if the outfitter was working hard and there were good opportunities at animals.
Be a hell of a way to go out. "how'd he die?" "well... the goofy S.O.B. squared up with a grizz." On that thought, I'd take 3 second of fighting a bear versus 3 months of wasting away in a hospital bed

Have a buddy that's allergic to any animal hair so we use lots of them. Haven't done much oil...
From a couple weeks ago. hunting buddy took a pic while I wasn't paying attention of the "well... now we've got some work to do" pose. *edited to throw in a pic of the animal. hate having my face on the internet but the elk was a nice one so I figured I owed it to him
Feel like a schmuck. Since it's only a 3 digit number thought what's stamped on the action was the model # of the action. It's the serial number. Guess my poor a$$ shouldn't buy fancy custom guns unless I learn enough to be less ignorant
Only vague info when i tried to google it. Have a custom rifle I just realized doesn't have a serial #. If I try to take it into Canada with the space for the # blank on the 5589 form is that going to cause issues?
I kinda did the same thing. A friend (spinal surgeon) called me hurtful names and told me to lighten up to start. Also pointed out the fact that core/ab work, separate from the weighted walks, would go a long way
