    Relative Recoil Between Cartridges

    I reload both the 308 and 7mm-08 and they are both relatively mild recoil, one of the nice things about reloading is I'm less concerned about thumper loads than I'm getting consistently small groups and that is the beauty of this class of cartridges they perform because the average hunter can...

    Who here is a .308 Winchester hunter?

    A few years ago I inherited my Dad's 308 that he only used a few times because it couldn't hold zero....well some Leupold bases and a decent scope later and it was a killing machine but I have to admit I prefer my 7mm-08 they both work equally as well at the ranges I'm comfortable shooting

    Best bullet for 6.5 creedmoor

    Find what the rifle likes and stick with it. I reload and it's fun to try different things but plain old cup and core bullets of the proper weight work just fine for deer.

    Wow

    Those young filly's sure eat nice. Fortunately, here in Missouri we can pretty much gets as many does tags for bow hunting to fill as you want so I keep the buck tag in my pocket until the very end of season "just in case", this year I had to watch a really nice public land buck walk by in...

    Frustrated

    Yes, our conservation agents here in Missouri are normally very willing to help in a situation like this one. Sorry you lost him. Please come back to Missouri, we have great hunting and lots of great public land, don't over look the smaller areas that get less pressure.

    Doe killers?!!?

    I usually put a couple in freezer in early bow season then a couple more in firearms or alternative season. With does tags easy to come by here in Missouri the buck tags usually stay in the pocket. This year I filled it but last year just watched them walk by.
