Any bear (or any game) with that combo?
What brake is on rifle?
rh300..love your rifle and this cartridge from rbros is very intriguing..might have to speak with travis about building one on a chad dixon blueprinted winchester classic action.just a little ****ed that you might of cost me some funds.lol !!!..good luck with your guiding and please keep us updated on how it all works out..ps.to all that would use a shotgun and slugs on mean nasty big bears.dont!!! bad idea..
Why I suggested to the young man a 1x6 scope. Oh well. You can lead a horse to water but you cannot make them drink.
It is about as good of a 1 power as I've ever looked through.Is it a true one power scope on the low end?
I tried several 1 to 4 or 6 power scopes before I found one that was actually a true one power low end, the difference was immediately visible.
Had it on a little 44mag revolving carbine, on one power you had a full, big, bright picture with BOTH eyes open, incredibly fast sight acquisition, incredibly fast.
I would think it would be a stellar choice for going in after something that may fight back and I hope that Zeiss is, may provide that extra 100th of a second that saves a life or two.
Personally, it sounded like you were in a great place to excuse yourself from other responsibilities and get a double rifle, would've sold about everything and ate Ramen to go that route myself. No scope, just the shallow v rear with a big ole brass or white dot front, no frills, just unforgiving death.
But it looks like you've got about 5200 ft/lbs of death being thrown out of that setup, hope to read about some animals taken with it.
That is awesome , thanks for the rifle insight as well. CongratsI took a Brown Bear near dry Bay Alaska I was required to use a register guide. I used my Browning A bolt SS 375H&H Leupold 3-10 B&C with hand loaded 300 grn Swift A Frame, The guide was using a Ruger 375Ruger. I requested the guide to follow shot if the bear did not fall, The bear came out of the alders to the creeks edge range was 110 Yds, I aimed just behind the shoulders mid way and it was technically a bang flop since he fell forward into the river and never came up for air
Yes I am!Are you planning on Spring Bear this year?
