*saw They're great heads. Accurate as can be.

I was out testing the dope on my LRM last week using Strelok and it worked wonderfully. 500 was spot on. 600 was one click high,but at both distances the wind call was on the money for 10 MPH cross wind. I know thats not that far but it was all I had time for. I will be going out in the near future to test to 850, which is where my scope maxes out at due to the zero stop. Regardless of the app used, I have always found it best to print it up and take it to the range and verify. That way changes can be made from there and confidence is built.

Lance, surprisingly it works pretty well as far as not making a mess. My wife put three into a pig as far as she could with my AR. None exited and the pig didn't go anywhere. I like exits though so I've not used it since.

No bigger confidence booster for the elk hunt then that! Congrats to him!

I've killed billions of animals with the 50 NBT.

Unless maybe you wanna look like you live under a roof instead of a bridge!

Dude you need a haircut and a beard trim bad!

The 64 grain nosler bonded, or a flavor of the Barnes ttsx.

Don't lie, you're going to use your dads 7/08!

You do remember you tried to set me up with your sister, right? You love my face. Speedy, what load and bullet are you using in that 28 Nos?

Lark was called in as a expert witness in the making of the original Jurassic park.

7 Lrm. Shot a 1.5-2" group at 600 yesterday with a 180 Scenar at 3000 fps.

I was the dude with the girls.

Lark, what was it like when dirt was invented?

Least I don't own a 7/08 lark, maybe I can borrow yours so I can take my son squirrel hunting?

AKA, I wanted to let you know that believe it or not, I understand your message and I get what you are saying. I also cringe when I hear guys say that they shoulder shot a bull, or hit high in no mans land etc. I also hear guys say they missed at 20 yards! Having had a big ole bull in archery range, I know the adrenaline that can come of it and it is NOT hard to miss a 700+# target no matter how good of a shot you are! But, like others said you came in on a high horse, trying to get a decent post/thread going and your words came out wrong. (I've gotta admit, you later saying you have done exactly what you were belittling in your first post is a MAJOR Pot V. Kettle statement).

Very awesome. A backpack trip line that had been on my bucket list for along time.... Right next to dropping 60#!

Good on you for heeding the words of advice instead of taking the "its public land I can do what I want" attitude (Although you would be 100% correct.)

I used to catch dinner (trout and pike) at lakev Mary all the time.

Do baseball players pout when they strike out? Missing sucks. Wounding is worse. I still replay the cow elk I wounded and never found in college! 30-06 @ something STUPID like 30 yards.

You better watch out, I hear 85's dad is a angry mean old bastard who hunts with a 7/08!

+1 I've never wounded a dove in my life. Or missed a dove, because he's against that too.

Apparently your confidence exceeds your ability level. I understand making mistakes once a blue moon, but it seems as though it's a regular thing for you and you're writing it off as part of the game instead of taking responsibility to make sure it doesn't happen again. Pick the firearm, pick the distance, pick the time and place, pot your money where your mouth is there hot shot.

Unfortunately, missing and, sometimes wounding IS part of the game. I fancy myself decently lethal, and I NEVER take a shot I'm not confident about and I've lost a couple animals, and missed a couple more. (Never seem to miss the little guys though)!

Slice it and cook it in butter with lots of salt and pepper.
