    6.5 WSM or 6.5 SAUM?

    guess I'M JUST A PECKERWOOD WHO LIVES IN THE HILLS WITH TO MANY GUNS your BRUTAL firsty, but you still did not address my questions Full points for snarkiness ZERO points for addressing the issue To compete at distance with the 6.5s and 7mms the .277 needs a high BC bullet like the 165 gr. Matrix (BC about .630) loaded with Alliant rl 26 you can push it to about 2900 fps in a 24 inch barrel and it makes the old 270 win. a thumper, but its the only high BC bullet made for the 270 which is why it isnt as popular with the guys who shoot long range. "The 170 gr. EOL needs a 1/8 twist barrel and then you are limited to the heaviest bullets made for the 270" Per Bartlien barrels

    Layering for cold weather

    Watch camofire.com they have been selling base layers lately.

    Layering for cold weather

    I dont use cotton because it doesnt dry fast (at all) you can be sweating hard and sit down to glass and your dry in 10 to 15 minutes with good base layers, that moisture can get you chilled when its cold out and its a lot harder to get warm again. I am a back packer for the most part so your mileage may vary. cotton=vortex
  12. Groups of 3 or 5? What's the 6th group going to tell you that the first group didn't? Consistency

    Hunting w/Non-Lead

    No need to get ruffled, I started this thread to allow discussion on the topic. It was surprising to me how polarizing this issue was. I know before you mentioned that there was conflicting data on this? You mentioned some statistics there, can you share your sources? I really do want to understand the topic better and do my part as a hunter to conserve our ecosystems. It seems that sources like huntfortruth.org think that this research was put forth by econazis intent on banning hunting. Thats why the podcast with Newberg was so enlightening. I would have otherwise never guessed that the Peregrine Fund was established by hunters and was a partner organization to AES, MDF, etc. I have learned a lot in the past few weeks and I am happy to say that endeavor started here. We can use CWT to facilitate conservation if we can just stop griping with each other. So no more hunting or shooting lead .22 or shot shells for you? I dont know about no more, but I certainly will change some habits. With our first rifle Kaibab hunt in the family coming up this year I will definitely either shoot copper or commit to taking the carcass out whole. Its a doe hunt, so pack out isnt as big of a concern. When I shoot gophers in MT I wont leave them out on logs for birds to eat. In all of this I havent read or heard anything about target shooting, so probably wont change that. As far as other big game, I dont do a lot of rifle hunting but when I do, I will consider alternatives to lead. My son had a 12 b tag and his grand father had given him his custom springfield 1903 3006 spr. right before he passed away. That rifle will not shoot copper bullets, but it loves 150 gr accubonds so we brought heavy contractor bags and I put the entire gut pile in it and hauled it off, we didnt leave anything for the condors.
  14. You need to shoot 5 to 6 consecutive groups not one group.

    New Build

    Which scope did you settle on? Its a Zeiss 4 x 16 x 44 ZBR. The glass is good, the turrets are solid, the marks line up and you can feel the clicks as you dial (very solid) you wont need to look at them. It was a demo for $650 retail is 1000. I read every review out and none were negitive. https://www.longrangehunting.com/articles/zeiss-conquest-v4-riflescope-field-test-and-review-4-16x44-zbr-moa-6-24x50-illuminated-zmoa.1199/
