    Traditions Evolution issues

    Hey guys, long story short, I was in bi mart the other day and saw they had a few muzzleloaders on the shelf, checked them out and went ahead and purchased a evolution. I got it home and was messing around with it and slipped a #11 primer on the nipple and it was just sloppy. Called traditions...

    Idahoans sound off.

    Freebird63, I haven't got maps of the areas yet, I plan on it, I just have not had the time to do alot of stuff this year. I was actually considering trying to archery hunt for my deer this year, bought a new bow and am dying to use it. We traveled down to Emmett for a visit last weekend and...

    New Build: 6mm Rem vs. 243 Win

    Well I would say since you already have all the 6mm stuff than just stick with it. I was thinking the same thing awhile back and just ended up going with a 243 in a factory sps varmint, and that decision was based purely on the price of brass. I like the cheaper brass, but you can get the lapua...

    .243 or .25-06?

    Ive owned both at one time or another, and I am going to buy another 243, both kill varmints and whitetails well, I like the 243 a little better than the 25 cause I can get better bullets for the 243(higher bc bullets). Ive killed whitetails with both aswell, and they both do better than they...

    Remington 700 sps-v 243win questions

    Im at about 3500 feet so I guess the only real way is to just try it and see, Im sure i'll figure something out, I have a long way to go until Im testing bullets, havent even purchased the rifle yet, just planning ahead. I guess I could always do another stevens build and then I wouldnt even...

    Remington 700 sps-v 243win questions

    Dang, I was hoping it would work, I wonder if it would sling the 95gr vld good? Have you guys had good luck with those in the 1-9 twist? I also thought I read about an 87gr vld aswell but havent looked it up yet. Thanks for the help so far guys, I appreciate it.

    Remington 700 sps-v 243win questions

    Remington website says 1-9 1/8 twist hopefully it would work. How do those 107 matchkings work on deer? Do they open up pretty good similar to a berger?

    Remington 700 sps-v 243win questions

    Hey guys, I witnessed this season how effective a well placed 105 berger is on whitetail deer from a 6 dasher and was shocked, the caliber is a serious killer. So I thought it would be cool to set up a 243win, Ive pretty well decided to start with a 700 varmint in 243 and swap the stock to maybe...
