Here's the deal. My buddy's dad got a Rem 700 6mmRem from his father-in-law and said it doesn't shoot. He asked me to try messing with it. I cleaned it up and shot a few rounds of the old factory ammo at 100 yards and shot a 5-6" group. It was ugly.
I took the gun back to the guy and he...
i would like to develop a load for my 6.5 Grendel. What bullet would you use for deer hunting out of a Grendel? It is accurate with 107gr target bullets.
I'm trying to figure out how many points it took to draw in one of the Colorado elk units. I feel like I can figure it out for many other states but am struggling with CO. Is there a link to see all the info? I know I'm missing something here but can't find it. Thanks
We both arrived with clean rifles, and shot them to verify zero when we arrived. From there, we both reloaded and shot our bulls 36 hours later. As my bull was going down, I reloaded but did not shoot until I got home. 4 days later, my rilfe fired and I was still holding zero.

Vortex Viper HD 20-60x85mm angled spotting scope. This scope is in mint condition with no defects in the glass or body. The cover has a small rip in it from taking it on and off. I have never taken the scope into the field. It has been in the truck for my western hunts and used from the road. I...
My buddy and I are looking to finish our slam with a Rio. Looking for options or for someone interested in doing a hunt swap for an Eastern in WI. We are looking at public but are open to a fee or semi-guided place.
Thanks
