    Talk to me about 7mm-08

    Got a 708 this year and took two deer. Hundred yard shots to the lungs, both just fell over. I used 145gr Speer Grand Slam on one and 140gr Winchester Power Points on the other. Very light recoil. You won't need to use premium cartridges the Power Points do fine. Very effective flat shooter...

    I've only shot the Browning BLR in 7mm-08, love it, very accurate and the action is smooth. The lightweight models only weigh 6 lbs.8 oz. and come with straight or pistol grip stocks.

    Off Hand Shooting

    What I'm finding most beneficial now is dry firing at deer. I've probably dry fired 300 to 500 rounds in the last couple of months using snap caps . It has been most beneficial in that I have been able to pick my target points quickly with the deer facing different angles. I do this mostly off...

    Off Hand Shooting

    I doubt that I'll be taking any shots at running deer , I would shoot at a very slow moving deer. It sounds to me like I need to do more practicing in the sitting and kneeling position.

    Off Hand Shooting

    Thanks for all the helpful replies. Some good suggestion that I'll try out. It's a great help to have this kind of input from experienced hunters. The last time I did any amount of shooting with a centerfire rifle was in basic training in 1959. You could say I'm rusty. I'm using the sling...

    Browning BLR (repair)

    I've been interested in knowing more about the mechanics of the BLR and have searched the web and found only fragments of information on assembly and disassembly of the trigger/lever /bolt mechanism. Perhaps the best source so far has been in reference to Gun Digest volume IV. Most people...
