  1. So you wanna compare groups? I'm game with that... Keep in mind, El Chupacabra is in the developement stage.. If ya like, Ill show you the final product of my 270 wsm. Im not saying there is no such thing as a accurate or a good gun for less than $1,000... The Remington 710/770 is IMO, a low quality gun that will not last long. Now, if you want to compare cheap guns, I have a .243 that I paid $200 all set up that is a tack driver with factory ammo and the POS scope that is on it. I also have a .270 that is 50-60 years old that my grandad paid about $20 for and it will dang near out shoot my .270 wsm. PS. Savages are known for out the box accuracy.. And have seen them produce more time the once! They are a highly under rated gun IMO

    Outdoorsmans Tripod Adapter

    They sure are proud of everything they make, charging a arm and a leg for it! Having said that, the adapter for the Duovids is on my list...
  3. Yep. You would be MUCH better off spending a little more $$ and getting a much better gun. Try and find a used ADL, or some Walmarts still have them at close out prices.

    Some mule deer pics

    That two point needs to be taken out of the gene pool!!! My Mathews is telling me it will volunteer to do the dirty work!
  5. BBPete.... With a $290 rifle, you get what you pay for... Keep that in mind... To me, the caliber is the least of your worries as IMHO, you are not getting "much" gun.

    7mm Rem Mag

    I killed my Mexico buck with the blue box Federal stuff.. Worked flawlessly. But the buck straight down and the exit was perfect!
  7. Larger (diameter) bullet, heavier bullet, more powder = more recoil.

    I have a Casio GzOne. I love th phone! It takes awesome pix and gets great reception. If you get this phone, you will need to get it off of Ebay and have them activate it. http://cgi.ebay.com/UTSTARCOM-CASIO-GZONE-...id=p3286.c0.m14

    WTT Kimber 22-250

    Well, I am finally to the point of where I want a good, high quality spotting scope. So, I would like to trade my Kimber for one. The gun: Kimber 84M 22-250. Bought brand new in 2006. Barrel was properly broken in by myself and RedRabbit. The gun has been hunted with, but has not, in any means been abused. There are the normal handling marks on the stock from going in/out of the safe and being my main coyote gun. Metal is 98%+. Gun is topped with a Leupold VX-III (Leupold number 55275) 4.5-14x40 LR (side focus) 30mm tube Varmint Reticle sitting in Leupold bases/rings. Scope is in excellant condition, lenses are perfect. Unlike some other Kimbers, this gun is a shooter. I stopped at 1/2" 5 shot group with 50 NBT, Rem brass, F210 primer and 36 grains of Varget. My best shot with this gun is a jack rabbit at 435 yards. Here are some pictures:

    WTT Kimber 22-250

    Sorry boys... She shot a 1/2" 5 shot group (like always) today... Was hoping she was off cuz of the recent misses on the coyotes but she was right where she needed to be... I cant let her go... She is off of the market.

    I'm out

    Funny how my post got called out by what? 3? 4 people? Because I actually have enough respect for the animal that IF I was to kill a toad, I'd put it in the books? I could care less about ego and the books. Sure, I want to kill a big ole buck that will make the book, but it has nothing to do with "my buck is bigger than yours." I couldnt care less how big or small some one elses deer is. If you are happy with it, who gives a rats butt what it score. Why do you think I have killed a spike, fork, (2) small 3x2's and posted pictures smiling? Maybe I am the only one on here who actually has respect for the animal I hunt. Por ejemplo... Shooting my buck in December in the head... Didnt want the deer to suffer all though he was dead deer walking.

    I'm out

    It doesnt bother me either, I see it as a useful tool and will use them when ever possible if thats what is needed to make the hunt succesful. The only problem that extends from this is the fact that he is killing these GIANT deer, and none of them are in the record bools. Seems dis respectul to the animal and makes it seem that the only reason he kills is to stroke his own ego.. Money, hunting fame, etc etc.

    What would it take?

    Coues: Any buck that stands there and watches my arrow fly into his kill zone. Muley: 3pt or better that stands there and lets me fling an arrow at him. Last year, I had 8 different muley bucks stand there and look at me with bow in hand. All were semi decent bucks too. go figure what happens when you have your first choice tag!

    You will be pleased with the gun. I would shoot a 140 Accubond or 140 TSX and call it good!
