    7mm STW ballistics

    I have been looking at the ballistic charts I can find and I have noticed that they all seem to be ending for the 7mm STW around 500 yards. My .30-06 is capable of reaching out to 1000 yards so I know that a magnum round will do that and then some but I can't seem to find much on the ballistics...

    Remington 700 mag options

    Thanks for the input, to be honest I haven't ever needed more rounds than the internal mag has but when I was a Boy Scout we learned to always be prepared so I look at it as I would rather have them and not need them, I will look at the 7mm STW I don't know much about it but I saw there's a...

    Hi Y'all From Georgia

    Yeah it's gotten to the point where I don't recognize it as my home anymore Thankfully the part of wilkes I'm hoping to move to has nothing but Timber property and it's far enough away that no one moves there :D so when I'm not working I will be free to shoot as much as I want with no yuppie...

    Anyone have any info on the hogue stocks?

    They make some really nice stocks that seem pretty durable, I personally really like how they feel and they are pretty stiff the only downside I have found is that you'll need to find some sort of protectant to treat it with because when I sold guns I saw allot of them go back to the factory...

    Do you prefer a hunting rifle with a detachable mag?

    I am currently building two rifles one for me and one for my GF and I like the idea of a box mag because I can carry extra rounds without the extra bulk and noise of loose rounds or boxes of rounds that don't fit any pouch or pocket. Plus I'm always worried I'll loose rounds out of the stock...

    Do you archery hunt for elk?

    I would love to but haven't yet, as far as the arrow going through the animal it depends a lot on placement but also on arrow speed and type and sharpness of the head i would personally love to get my hands on some RAMCAT broadheads but i currently have some Rage three blade mechanicals that are...
