    Hammer vs Barnes question???

    I have also had very little blood shot meat with Barnes. In both TTSX and LRX bullets. That is the second reason I use them, the first is I like how they preform on game

    Hammer vs Barnes question???

    Here's my take on Hammer hunters, just the 143 grain .284. Shot out of a 7mm rem mag. Killed a bull elk, my shot was high and elk dropped dead, wonderful!!. Son shot a mule deer buck at 150 yards, speed 3,010 ft/sec. 1st shot was right behind the front shoulder, double lung. Deer did not seem...

    CWD research

    I don't know jack about CWD. So if an animal has CWD and you cook the meat-- is the CWD then considered "dead" or illiminated?

    Outfitters

    Wow, I know it's hunting season but I've reached out to 6-8 outfitters looking for a hunt for next year and only had one reply that they were all full. Why have a web site and e mail contacts if you don't answer it. And it's been almost 3 weeks now and no answers. I even called on and requested...

    Enclosed or utility trailer

    Binos that work with glasses

    I had Lasik done to get long distance vision. Didn't work, Dr sucks and said it will come around just be patient. Well it never did. Now see worse at long distance than ever. Can see up close ok. Just the opposite of what I wanted. Vet your eye DR very hard!!!!!

    Christensen Arms, what's the verdict?

    I got an x bolt a few years back in a 7mm rem mag, couldn't get that rifle to shoot anything. Not factory or any reloads I made for it. Got rid of it and got a Ridgeline, great shooter.

    F150 Payload question

    Different style Fords have different weight specs. An XL vs a XLT vs a Platnium. You can google search each truck. My 23 F 150 xlt is rated to pull 10,400 lbs. So your trailer is probably fine but to put that much weight in the bed then pull something.....that I don't know about. I'd feel it...
