Hi AWS, I use loading manuals for only reference. I like Ken Water's "Pet Loads" much better. The only problem with "Pet Loads" is it's dated. I start with known accurate powder. I'll begin a few grains below max & examine

Just an FYI. A direct mount will always be more stable than a vice like mount that squeezes the side's of the stock. Whether or not you need that added stability is up to you and your situation. Just my opinion. DoubleUp and I must have been typeing

Old thread but good one I come back later that day or another day if alone. If I'm with a friend sometimes one guy can get out quick and hide and the other can drive off. After 10 minutes or so the guy that stayed can sometimes call the bumped coy

At that range 4. I zero my rifles for a max rise of 2.8" at mid range and hold a bit low like that unless I'm sure the coyote is past 200 yards, then I hold 5. With the 204 and a 40gr V max at 3900 I'll deliberately slip the bullet back maybe

That 45gr Hornady from the 204 doesn't do great in the wind, but it has sure stomped a lot of coyotes for me. I have taken some pretty bad angles and broke some bones along the way too. My bolt gun loves that load and the 40gr V max at 3900fps in t

That X1A3 is what I used for a while and it works well. My giant FoxPro Prairie Blaster 3 takes up the whole bag though so I switched to a Team Elk that has room for a puffy jacket and my Mojo Critter decoy. The optics pockets on the outside fit my

Thought I would share a pic of a call I did earlier this year for a great customer. He sent me a great piece of walrus ivory with a simple request for a lion track. The end was broken off, so I decided to use what I was given and carve a mountain r

Not wringing it out yet but my guess is 125-150 or so. CFE is the only thing that's been shot. Ritch sent me some pics from the other day and the primers are picture perfect. Greg

I would highly recommend looking at the SiCo Harvester, it's an awesome hunting can and has direct thread inserts for multiple thread pitches. You can also use the Hellfire mounts from Area 419 for a taper mount solution. My rifles remain sub moa wit
