up and downs Personally I am just going to save for one of Leupold's new rangefinders that automatically do the math for you. Then I don't have to worry. I think they are called the RX series. www.leupold.com

PNW rifle Go with the Ruger stainless, I am not sure if you have a Bi-Mart near you but in Eugene they are selling them for 459 and change and I have never heard anyone bad mouth a Ruger. They are a workhorse rifle and capable of some really good accuracy when they are fed what they want. BTW...

Although I don't personally know of any bobcat that has killed a deer, it is possible I guess. If it's killing deer then I would go loaded for cougar, and the 30-30 would do just fine. We used to use them almost exclusively when we ran them with dogs. The other rifle we used was the old Ruger...

Looks more like a red deer or a european stag to me than any elk I have ever seen or shot at.

338 Federal .....why bother? While it maybe an intereseting caliber, it may also be interesting to have a third arm growing out of your chest too. But I would be willing to bet that no one lines up for that. The point, at least I thought, of shooting large caliber rounds was to carry large heavy...

I used to have a 243 and ran the gamut of bullet weights playing with accuracy. The 55 grainers always produced dismal accuracy no matter which powder I tried, seating depth, etc. I would presume it had something to do with twist rate. I did not get acceptable accuracy until I exceeded 70 grains...

Would it possible, or feesable, to rechamber a 260 to a 6.5 x 284? The platform would be a Ruger MKll. Just looking to upgrade performance.

You might be able to find an aftermarket stock that will be pillar bedded and free floating. Then all you would have to do is remove 3 screws throw your old stock away and drop in to your new one. Or you could wrap a 5/8" to 3/4" dowel in some 60 grit sandpaper and sand out the offending stock...

I was considering purchasing a chronograph for myself for Christmas. Any one have opinions, good or bad on the Pact Model 1 XP? What about the Shooting Chrony Aplha Master.

The first buck I ever took was with my 300 weatherby and 150 grain game kings backed with 87.5 grains of, I think, IMR 4831. The shot was around 300 yards centered one rib on the way in jellied the lungs and broke 6 ribs on the way out (extreme angle). I was equally impressed by the accuracy...

I have a 257 roberts and have taken a few coyotes with it. I used to use the 100 grain Ballistic Tips because it is my deer rifle, and they did not do a whole heck of a lot of pelt damage. They make an 85 grain Ballistic Tip for the 25 cal. but I think with the extra velocity they might turn...

Unselfish wives I got married on a Saturday, took my younger brother on a cow hunt in the Ochoco's on Sunday. Didn't come back for a week. I love that woman...

High Fence Hunting I had a very similar expirience with the whole high fence deal in Montana in 1998 near Hamilton. I was there for the FWL guide and packer school at Iron Horse Outfitters. The guy who ran the place took us out for a drive, kinda one of those to go see what you can see deals...

375 loads Which bullets did you shoot in your 375 before the TSX's came out? I have gotten good results with the 250 XFB's but they are sadly discontinued. I shoot the triple shocks in everything else I own. Terminal performance is great, and, as you have shown, a guy can eat right up to the...

Mr. Camp, if you happen to have any more of those[I]management[I]bucks laying around, I would be more than happy to help with your culling operation. We only get one deer a year here, unless you draw a doe tag every third year.

Inexpensive safes The only problem I have encountered with these kind of safes other than light weight is the lack of fire proofing. But I just bought one from Wally World for 329 and will be drilling it into the floor in my garage this weekend. As far as fire proofing goes, you could always...

The kid's Springfield The stock is truly awful, regardless of what anyone thinks Ram-line is better than what is on it, I wish I had a digital camera. Then I am sure seeing this abomination would make a few of you tear up. Hell you could drill a couple of holes in a 2x4 and have a better stock...

Stock finishing As I have been a painter for the last 12 years, I would strongly advise against the water-based polyurethane for a rifles finish. It simply doesn't have the resilience or even the look of solvent based finishes, my opinion is that it looks cheap. My top recommendation for anyone...

Most people either love them or hate them. I like them in everything I shoot, the 375 H&H is torn between the 250 grain XFB's and Nosler's 260 grain Accu-Bond. But the 257 Roberts, 270 WSM, 260 Rem, and the 30-06 all love the TSX's and group them sub-moa consistently. I think most people that...
