Custom 6mm Remington
That 6mm is a wonderful round. 26" barrel 1x14 I'm guessing. I have one, I wish it was a 1x10. I push a BT 55 gr 4200 fps gophers vaporize. I use it for deer with an 80-grain TTSX at 3600 fps. Deer and antelope 400 plus never hear the shot... -
Explain this one to me.
Try a different powder? Copper bullets like to be pushed FAST.- D4570

Youth quota, too young
It's not turkey hunting, but in MT, at age 10, kids can hunt deer with a mentor. I was afraid that when it first started, it would be abused, and the Dad would shoot the deer for them. But now what I have seen is just the opposite. The kids are indeed doing the hunting/shooting. My granddaughter...- D4570

“What good did I do today?”
It doesn't sound like much after reading the posts here, but. A buddy of mine, his wife, anyway, had her dad pass, and a day later, her aunt, his sister, passed. On the way down to NV for the funerals, there truck's water pump went out. They had to have it towed. I felt very bad. I spent the day...- D4570

Carrying Capacity Not What It Seems
We have thousands of windmills and wind farms, most on private land but some on State trust lands. Some of the ones on trust land block off access to the land for hunting. That concerns me.- D4570

Shoulder Surgery
I was out duck hunting two years ago. I had a wheelbarrow full of decoys, ammo, and geese. Pulling, pushing it out through the tall grass and mud, I mucked up BOTH shoulders. My doctor said surgery MAY help, but he said it may open up Pandora's box also, at my age, then 70... My right shoulder...- D4570
