    Deer rifles for young hunters

    I started with and still use my old 7mm-08. It’s an awesome cartridge, low recoil, good grain weight projectile, and will knock the lights out of any medium sized game you put the sites on. Remington 700s are great because you can buy a youth stock if they aren’t big enough to manipulate and...

    Best all around caliber for the Tikka T3x Lite in Montana

    Yeah the MPR’s are sweet rifles but you’re right find ammo or even brass for that matter is like finding a needle in a haystack. I have a just enough to get by for another year of hunting season but that’s only if I shoot it three or four times during the year. I hate having a rifle like the...

    Best all around caliber for the Tikka T3x Lite in Montana

    Yeah, you’re probably right about loading up and then using it over the length of the year. I’m kinda torn, and to be honest it might just be wanting another rifle haha.

    Hey guys, I’m moving to Montana and looking to pick up a new rifle for hunting in the area. I have a 7mm-08 that I love using and a Christensen 300 PRC.

    Whats your most accurate rifle?

    I have a Remington 700 in 7mm-08 that shoots 1 MOA consistently, it was a hand me down from the 70’s. It’s a fun gun but isn’t compatible with all ammo. But recently picked up a Christensen ridgeline in 300 PRC topped off with a Vortex HSLR 4-16x50 as a 30 cal hunting rifle and it’s on another...

    upgrading my binos

    The vortex viper has great glass for the price as well as mentioned by someone above the warranty is awesome. Mine fell off the 4x4 then got run over by someone following me and Vortex replaced them without any hesitation. I don’t have any experience with the other brands but that’s my two...

    Is 7mm-08 ammo easy to get in normal times?

    I’ve used a 7mm-08 for all of my hunts in the past few years. Fun shooting and easy to find ammo here in CA. Like someone said even Walmart carries it (surprised to see that). Best of luck!

    150grn ELD-X in a 7mm-08

    Hey guys, looking for your opinions. New to reloading and trying to develop a load for my 7mm-08. I have access to IMR 4451, 4895, 4831, or accurate 2460. What do you think would be the best choice for a 150gr ELD-X? Any thoughts would be awesome.

    Varying Load Data

    Does anyone in this thread have any recommendations on powder for reloading a 7mm-08 with 150gr hornady ELD-X. I’ve been trying to find load data on it but can’t seem to find anything. Just trying to see if anyone familiar with reloading has any ideas of where to start. Thanks guys!
