Thinking this was a sarcastic comment "two hundred and twenty three" rounds (downrange) would do? you never asked about caliber, but obviously there is widely accepted ranges. Colorado is an awesome place to hunt. this year I did a 4th season rifle hunt, but the weather was hot and it made...

HardCastle Custom Machine - Specialty Gunsmith anyone ever use this smith? located in silver city NM.

awesome! I'd also love to get behind some thermal gear. I hit a yote with stick and string once, was out hunting rabbits and didn't think to switch to my broadhead from the small game tip. his intestines were hanging out his side and dragging on the ground, that guy must have ran for 1/4mile...

I can't say a "hole" (get it) bunch on the subj. but this was my hog, shot at 76yards with a 180gr 300wm. nosler partition. DRT I also shot a big bodied black bear in Alaska with a .375 H&H. through and through, and really tough to find entry/exit holes however this could have been due to...

I do not have any issues. Nikon prostaff rimfire 3x9x40. BDC reticle for the 22 as well.

I have a quite uniquely built rolling block in .257 Roberts. My father had a new barrel put on it and a oddly beautiful stock built as well, many many years ago. And this is one of the few rifles that I want to continue modifying like he did. First thing first tho, is this trigger. No joke...

I'm curious about this line as well. 4x12x40 might do well on my yote gun

great info. debating on making my #1 into an AI as well. i'll be keeping tabs on this thread.

wow. those were some aggressive yotes, no fear in them! awesome video.

Sounds like you are in the right direction then. Curious on what you end up. Keep us informed. I'm sure others will chime in withore info.

I can't speak on behalf of a lot of those scopes but you will hear that there is no need for 50 on the bell for those powers by some people. also keep in mind that a 50 or 56mm bell will lift the scope up from the rifle, could make acquiring the sight picture difficult. I would also look into...

good information. answered some questions I had as well. I don't mean to thread jack but I've been debating on swapping my savage 110 wood stock for a more vertical grip stock, but i'd only want to do so if the stock would lighten things up. any idea what the weight of a factory wood savage...

I am often in the same market as you. I agree with the Vortex comments, Also check out Nikon and Leupold, they both have some that are in the price range you speak of. Reticle is something to keep in mind. as you can build drop charts if you have a reticle like the vortex BDC. currently I...

don't quite have the funds with the holidays around. but i'd be interested afterwards if its still for sale.
