I believe the numbers that Sherman posts about- but I don't have any first hand experience, hence the "Allegedly" bit, and the reason for this thread. Among all the Hunttalkers, there's a wealth of experience and knowledge with various cartridges, all of which I find interesting.
What kind of...
The Environmental Impact Statement Documents are available for your reading pleasure, and the comment period is open for the next few weeks as to what the future of Yellowstone Bison Management can look like. This is a good opportunity for us as hunters to express our desires, such as increasing...
I stumbled across another unknown cartridge (to me) yesterday- the 7 SAW, and after stumbling in to the Sherman Wildcat cartridges last year and reading about these various cartridges and their (alleged) performance, I'm genuinely curious about some of these obscure loads, wildcats, and...
I just started looking at these versus Ollin + Phoneskope. Can I ask why you're selling? I'd be interested in purchasing. Feel free to PM so I'm not hijacking the thread.
I've had the same results with Bergers, whether VLDs or Hybrid Hunters, everything does straight down (7mm RM/168gr). Definitely had the same results as far as shrapnel, too. If you go behind the front quarter, and don't eat the heart or liver, you'd be fine. But you have to accept that not all...
$30-$60/box of 20 depending on the load.
The Cross isn't designed for the military- the MCX-SPEAR is Sig's offering to meet the Military's Next Generation Weapon, which is also chambered in the .277 Fury to meet the military's design criteria (135-140 grain .27 caliber bullet capable of 3100+...
Would definitely agree that those bucks are not common in the Bridgers- maaaybe top 5% on private, definitely top 1% on huntable public. This same coworker would tell you he spent a lot of days just trying to find a 4x4 on public that wasn't a 2-3 year old, and that he got lucky coming across...
Now that I regularly see factory loads on the shelves at Murdoch's- anyone have any experience with this cartridge? The 150gr Accubond loads out of a 24" barrel are impressive. Even the 16" numbers fall between a 24" 6.5 PRC and a 6.5 CM.
As most have said- Springhill seems to be the place everyone sees the older deer, regardless of time of year. That said, my coworker dug a pretty decent buck out of the mountain late in 2020. You never know what could show up- the genetic is here in the state, but until people want to...
In my limited experience, Coues maintain relatively small territories compared to other deer sub-species and won't move very far, even seasonally. With those dates (3rd season I assume?), the bucks should be hanging in the thick stuff, and just starting to get a little curious about does toward...
Which hunt does your brother have? Bitter Creek? Little Creek? Any weapon, Any bison?
I've got the late any weapon, any bison for the Book Cliffs South/Little Creek this year. Epic Outdoors and Huntin' Fool both have member hunt lists if you're a member with one of them or your brother is.
Definitely tongue in cheek. My point was simply that you can hunt about any species in a "canned" manner, and yet some people will still prioritize it simply based on the species. I think there is a misperception that all Bison hunts are canned and a 100% success, when that is simply no where...
Certainly not trying to rip anyone off- I paid $1600 for the Razor new, did a quick eBay check to see what they were selling for, which was $1000, so priced accordingly. I didn't even know you could still buy gen 1 "new", but I'll certainly take that into account and edit the post with a price...
