    Elk rifle

    One thing I haven't heard anyone mention is that Elk are large animals. They deserve respect and consideration before you try to kill them. Use enough rifle and enough bullet to kill them quickly. There is nothing I hate more than hunting elk in the mountains and seeing a three or four year...

    AZ Antelope

    Well, we are back from our hunt. The antelope in Arizona, I'm sorry to say, are safe from my guns for another year. Saw four shooters over 16 inches tall. One was faster than I was. Shot at him and just as I pulled the trigger, he started running about. The second one we saw was about 1.5...

    Are there any non-rural American hunters here?

    I'm a boomer. I grew up around airplanes and Navy ships. My father was in the Navy and we lived all around the Pacific Ocean. Someone mentioned they were born in 1964. That was the year I graduated High School. ONly lived in a rural area for a short time during the summers (2) when I spent...

    Being an ambassador for the sport, how should one counter anti-hunting sentiments?

    My mother, whom I loved completely, used to curse me for shooting "critters". We finally worked out a deal. I told her that if she could find a way to keep the meat on the BBQ without killing the critter first, I would stop hunting. The last 12 years of her life, I honestly believe, she spent...

    Which Caliber for Elk

    Of the choices offered, the 6.5 in the Swedish Mauser round, which is very similar in performance to the Creedmore, has probably killed more Moose for a longer period of time than any of the others. So with the right bullets, i would assess that as supremely capable. The 308 is obviously a...

    Rifle Brand for 7mm Rem Mag

    I've just recently gotten back into kicking around with rifles, but Sarco has Dumolin Mauser actions for sale for about $350. If you know a good gunsmith, you can probably build an excellent rifle for less that $1500. The stock built to fit you, the trigger set to your specs, the barrel to the...

    They just don't build beautiful hunting guns like they used to.

    Guys, I'ts our fault that the "PRETTY" guns are not made in this country any more. Gringos are famous for jumping on the wagon for every new fold or gadget that hits the market and forgetting about the"guy who brung them". If Americans would spend the money of the pretty guns, they would be...

    1st Antelope Hunt - Check me

    A bipos is a great addition for prone shooting, but chances are you'll be shooting from a sitting or kneeling position. Either be sure you take a tall bipod or shooting sticks to steady your rifle. I would also make it a habit of siting in my rifle at 3" high at 100 yards rather than 2". Can't...

    Do any American Boomers here remember the quality lawn mowers of old?

    I always wondered where they found all those women with the staples in the bodies. I searched for years and never found one except in the magazines.

    .300 WSM for Pronghorn?

    Qubo, A heavy jacketed bullet may not have a chance to expand and do a lot of tissue damage, but I can guarantee you that a fast moving heavy bullet will cause sufficient hydrostatic shock and tissue damage to kill about any antelope providing you shoot him anywhere except the nose or the foot.
