Weatherby 257 magnum 80 grain Barnes TTSX for coues?
roninflag replied to dpr64's topic in Rifle hunting for Coues Deer
while some may be slightly little better than others; I bet Most of the bullets from 80 to 120 grains would be awesome for coues out of a 257 wm. -

more chance of getting bit and getting west nile, flooded out or a flat tire , lost or.............. -
Are 15X's that much of an advantage
roninflag replied to joeinaz0's topic in Rifle hunting for Coues Deer
I believe you can rent some 15 swaros and try them for a day or two . then you know for yourself -

roninflag replied to GotBowAz's topic in The Campfire
"FYI 23s and unit 1 closed for the year"?? " the annual the sow limit has been met"? the annual limit is 12? the season is closed for the general and the archery season from last week? and it is open for the season on friday. ok. -
34% hunt success last year. A great time of year to be out hunting especailly since football commitment will be done. my buddies and i harvested a lot of bucks out that unit in the past. one year 9 out of 11 of us bagged a buck. get that .243 sighted in and a little practice will bring up the confidence of a young hunter. i have seen years where the quail hunting is quite good in that unit. you do a combo scout, shoot some quail, rabbit duck and learn the unit prior to the hunt. Enjoy.

what rifle?
-
the sendero is a little lighter and better for hunting. either i would think would be great. careful selection of scope and ounts also can bring down weight.
-
did you see some??
-
the 8.5-25 leup that is on my 6.5-284 sendero ( krieger barrel, jewell trigger)
-
Do you havfe .243 and knife?? the deer stay at one elevation. higher early like aug lower later like dec . once you find that elevation you will see a lot. over 100 a day.
-
Eric- i believe that is a great rifle. very light , like my remington tititanium.
-
I load .010 off for match rifles and .030 off for hunting rifles.

Winchester M70 270wsm VS 300wsm: Conflicted and need insight.
roninflag replied to deserttacoma84's topic in Long Range Shooting
both the 7mm wsm and the 300 wsm have won a lot of long range competitions. both national and international. -
Eric- if you go to desert sharpshooters there is a match schedule. shooting in the matches held around the valley you will become a great long range shooter.

roninflag replied to deserttacoma84's topic in Long Range Shooting
do you reload? sell both and get a sendero. Or shoot a 10 shot group at an 800 yard target and see what the groups look like. if they are 8" or less keep it. -
Got my first dove of the year yesterday.
roninflag replied to PRDATR's topic in Small Game, Upland Bird, and Waterfowl Hunting
I wonder if Randy got in trouble for using a 98 MPH fast ball ?? it is kind of a non-tradition weapon also. -
i have shot my remington/kriegers against factory rifles. some that do well are the savage f-class, savage lrp, some sakos like the trg and 85 heavy barrel.
-
a remington with a krieger barrel is an excellent choice. do you reload?? that affects what cartridge to choose
-
that bear looks really big! how big was he??
-
If you go to " riflemansjournal " ; German Salazar has done a lot of recent work with the 30-06 in long range shooting. several articles. No question the 30-06 is capable in a good rifle . his rifle started out a remington 700 left hand. even when i was shooting my 6.5-284 he beat me easily.
-
the rifle is more important than the caliber. what are you shooting at? coyotes ? prairie dogs? coues? a 700 long range or a sendero are a couple i would pick.
-
i have 6 krieger, one hart.

Mule- i am talking about Public Land. i just want every one to know we are subsidising the cattle business ( WHY?), which i do not agree with. Also, if we had above average rain (and) or remove the cattle the grass would grow up , more quail rabbits mice ect would be produced for the predators to choose from. 90% fawn survival inside the predator proof fence fence at 3 bar, 17 % outside . you need at least 35% just to stay even.
