Went out yesterday after supper and saw 5 deer and 2 sandhill cranes. Howie’s box call did set off the cranes. They make enough noise to scare off the dead. This morning went out to my deer stand in the 40 and no luck yet.

I’ve found the 6mm 115gr RDF shot best in the lands. The 140gr 6.5mm was set at 0.020” off for the best results.

I’ve scaled back also. Without question RL-17 and RL-26 are by far my most favorite powders. Been working on finding substitutes but those 2 are hard to beat.

Nice to have rifle that is consistent with multiple bullet and powder combinations.

I totally agree with you. The interesting thing is Vihtavuori is available and their prices where always steep but are more affordable today.

Well , the 404gr SH will do that for you on a deer as experience has showed me.

Today I received what I believe is an unused set of 224 Wby dies. These are the original style Wby sold way back in the day. The cardboard box is even in decent shape.

Not good

Hoping to get out this weekend “IF” the bear left me a blind to sit in.

Very cool rig.

Good job Guy👍 Congrats on perfect score.

There are some deals that pop on Raven

This afternoon being too wet to do anything else , I dug out the 30-06. I decided to try out the 220gr RN bullets I got and some 180gr AB Grade C. Input my data into QL for some baseline with N555 and went from there. My Winchester brass is a little large on internal capacity making N555 ideal...

I received mine also. The bullets I got do have light pull marks. Doesn’t matter at the price I paid.

Looks good. The 80.5 Bergers work well in my son’s Wylde on top of N140.
