I had a girlfriend or two like that over the years... . We occasionally had to deal with bad bears at Philmont when I was working there. Always made for a big adrenaline rush before and during and one heck of a crash after.

They can and do offer faster TW's in some factory offerings as more and more heavy/long for caliber bullets keep coming out and in trying to meet the rising demand for rifles to accommodate them.

They're catching up slowly it seems introducing faster twist rates in newer barrels in some specialty "long range rifle" offerings but not across the board.

Honestly I had the same problem with 3 different SiroccoII's fired in the 300wm, 7mm STW, and 260 Rem. I had never seen a bullet flatten out like that and turn 90 deg or better in my entire life till then. I hit a little WT buck at 200yds with the .260AR running about 2750mv. I shot a tad low...

I like the 870 because it's probably the closest thing to a perfect all-around weapon ever invented. Knowingly going after a wounded bear or similar situation to me is independent of what I'd carry for general bear defense when hunting or fishing. Carrying an extra long gun or a long gun while...

Poster Board from Wallyworld or DG works just fine too.

Ruger makes both an Alaskan and Guide Model in 375 with a short, 20" Bbl. I bought one for my first trip to Africa and it performed outstandingly and was quite easy to handle in the thick stuff both there and in Texas.

The problem with any and all of them is the need to put a fatal shot where it belongs under the stress of an attack. At least the semi autos give us more opportunities to succeed in those few often fatal seconds. Whatever you carry for bear defense though just like in self defense you'd better...

The 300wm is the Toyota Landcruiser of centerfire rifle cartridges. You can take it anywhere, hunt anything in N. America with confidence and never feel undergunned. I do however think the 30PRC is going to be the 300wm of this century by the time all is said and done as the wm was for the last.

I never said they are selling them and I thought that odd since they are so readily available in other countries. Show me where each part is individually serialized. If you already own a suppressor lawfully you can buy the parts for them lawfully to repair or replace them. You can't claim on...

She's a toad. We spent a whole lot of time in CO/NM bear country growing up and I was most impressed at how a seemingly passive sow with a couple of cubs could turn into the demon spawn from hell if she thought they were in danger especially early in the spring when the males were first coming...

Just curious as to what they would charge for a rebarrel???

6.5RPM. They are doing a whole new family of RPM cartridges.
