    Better sights?

    Exactly the right way to go!!!! Your aiming point is off the top of the sight, not covering the target with the front sight. The front blade from XS sights is called a "white line partridge" (no partridge). The white line gives you a fine aiming point. This front blade is not so touchy with...

    Co 55 Muzz Deer

    Congrats on the tag, we've hunted 55 a few times but never on the muzzy season. After 25+ years searching for muzzy sights I have settled on a Williams peep sight for the rear sight and an XS Sights white line partridge front sight.

    Game Carts

    300WSM 150gr for elk?

    I have been shooting 165 grain Accubonds out of my 300 WSM for the past few years since I like to hunt with one gun and one load for all species. This load has been devastating on elk. We have killed a lot of elk with 130 and 150 grain bullets (like Nosler Partitions) from a .270. If you...

    209 primer suggestions for Blackhorn powder

    Make sure you buy the Blackhorn 209 breech plugs for those Optimas to shoot Blackhorn powder. They are especially designed for that powder. Blackhorn needs to be ignited without the powder charge being pushed free by the "pressure" of the primer going off. Fiocchi primers have one of the...

    Success! Say goodbye to a mess of points :) With over 400 applicants in my point pool and above and the preference point issue being revisited this year for the next 5 year season structure, and finally the late muzzleloader dates this year, it was time to have some fun and hunt elk!

    utah and nevada c c hits,, back door info

    Nevada's results typically post the Friday before Memorial Day weekend, if that holds true that would ne next Friday May 23. I don't believe Nevada is allowed to charge for tags before providing the draw results, so you will not likely see a hit on your card before the results post.
