.308 Secret Sauce??? (Loading Question)
firstcoueswas80 replied to Stallone A.'s topic in Rifles, Reloading and Gunsmithing
Thanks Coues Sniper, Yes I have great groups with the A-Max Bullets however last season my son shot his bull elk with it. He dropped the elk in its tracks, he was flopping around for a couple of minutes so we got closer to put another round in him and he just got his footing and took off. Very Little blood (4 drops) and to make a long story short we could never find him. I feel if we had a better bullet like a Berger or ELD-X the initial devastation would have been greater and we would have never lost that bull. I have shot many Coues Deer with the A-max with no problems but an Elk is a lot bigger. I just never want to have that happen again... That sounds like a shot placement issue, not a bullet issue. -
I agree. Man they can get up and down the floor. That joshua Jackson kid is the best player I've seen in the tournament, at least his game yesterday was.

After watching the game yesterday, Kansas is looking really good.

In 2014, when I drew my archery tag, I decided to check when I got home from work. I dont recall the exact time, but it was after 4am and before 5, and the charge was there. Big mistake. Sleep did not come easily!

Wife is looking for a site, preferably one away from the party/drinking sites. I don't know if they have different sizes, but the plan is to take our 35' toy hauler up.

In my experience, barnes have always worked better going towards a larger jump. -

What don't you like about the LRAB? Is it an accuracy issue or terminal performance on game? Accuracy. Notorious for two in one out groups. If I recall correctly, Lance had issues with them too. -

Companion Dogs on the Stand
firstcoueswas80 replied to CouesPursuit's topic in Predator Hunting and Trapping
When my lab was just a puppy he accompanied me and my buddy Jake on a day out Predator calling. We walked up on a pack of coyotes. They didn't spook in fact they were interested. My shooting was God awful I ended up shooting one and missing three others. I wholeheartedly think that they hung around because I had the dog with me.
