    Piedmont Buck

    LOL.... with all the craziness of the internet and employers just looking for an excuse to fire or not hire you, I try to keep my identity as concealed as possible. .... or..... maybe I am really ugly.

    Piedmont Buck

    My wife and I hunted the hell out of this guy. 1200 total trail camera pictures, roughly 150 hours of hunts, 8 micro food plots, and an immense amount of lost sleep.... all brought to an end with a 150gr SST from my .308 at 35 yards. Quite anticlimactic and humbling, to say the least. I...

    Help me pick 22 Ammo!

    I'm a day late and a dollar short here, but.... I really like the Remington 36gr hollowpoints. It hammers squirrels, and is only $27 or something close for 525 rounds. Here's a link: Rimfire Ammunition - Rifle Ammunition - Golden Bullet 22 Ammunition

    308 155 load

    I am going to go ahead and back up what previous posters have said-- look at something besides the SMK for hunting purposes. I realize that it is accurate as all get out, but I have actually experienced greater accuracy from a 165gr Nosler Ballistic Tip. This is my load data for the 165gr...

    Savage 220

    My dad has one of these. I set it up for him with the Buck Hunter BDC reticle and then sighted in for him. I started at 100 yards with the Barnes Tipped Expanders by Federal. My first two touched as you can see, so I said to hell with firing a third since those things are expensive. I made...

    280 Upgrade by MCR

    While we are on the subject of bedding, how much would it cost to have a complete bedding job done on a Savage 10FP?

    Savage 110 BA .300 win mag review

    I happen to own one of these weapons, so I would like to give you all my review after tinkering with various factory and handloads. 1.) I paid $1700 for mine-- certainly worth it compared to the M-14 National Match I bought several years ago, and have since sold due to its inability to...

    Also, here's the overall lengths: .270= 3.28" .308=2.774" .300 Win Mag= 3.34" And sorry the table is all effed up looking. I had it nice and pretty, but the forum decided to jumble it up again, but I'm not worried-- I'm sure English is everybody's first language and that...
