    6.5 Creedmoor on Elk?

    I have taken a Roosevelt cow with 6.5 on a damage hunt. It worked well. I have other choices I would use for a bull or on a hunt where I’d likely have longer shots. It is, in my mind, the low end of an adequate choice. How many elk have been taken with a 30/30:core lokt? I have a buddy...

    Price no option, Best Muzzleloader?

    I could never get anywhere near that with my factory Rem. ultimate. I can group well at 200 yards but maybe 2 3/4 in. I have used Bob Parker , the remington 250 grain that they rec , and barnes 295 grains. I have played with powder and I do best with 110 by weight of blackhorn. You are a...

    Price no option, Best Muzzleloader?

    You can get long range muzzleloading accuracy at a price. I doubt any factory set up will be good past 300

    Price no option, Best Muzzleloader?

    You need to first figure out where you are hunting. I have a remington ultimate and mostly hunt nebraska, where I am from, but not where i live. I don't feel it is a true 300 yard rifle as advertised. There are modifications made and if you want to spend real dollars, they make it a 45. Now...

    Looking for Muzzleloader recommendations.

    I have a few muzzleloaders. I have a remington ultimate but I regret it as I can't use it here. I muzzleload mostly inNebraska. It is advertised as a 300 yard gun, I'd say in my hands it is a 200 yard gun but its windy out there too. I have a cva optima and no gun I own has put more meat on...

    Top rated muzzleloader bullet?

    barnes are great bullets. Robert Parkers nice too but spendy.

    What to shoot and not to shoot for bull elk?

    the younger the bull, the better the meat. What would you do with the horns? Are you going to mount it? I recall shooting what was a pretty decent buck in high school and I barely had enough money to process the meat let alone get a mount . Some people like mounts but I can't imagine what...

    6.5 Creedmoor on Elk?

    The 6.5 bullit shoots above its weight. You just need to keep your distance down. I have taken a cow with this rifle without issue, about 225 yards. This was a damage permit and would not have been the rifle I would have taken for a western hunt or for a big roosevelt bull. You want the...
