Haha, it's paid off for us big time really, we usually kI'll 2-3 elk a year, and after I kill I'm usually done hunting do I figured I might as well save the money and do it my self
I've used this place several time for elk and deer, they do great and very reasonable price, I have personally started taking a freezer and grinder and vaccum sealer on our hunt the last 2 years and doing it my self after a kill though
I have 2140lb of energy at 500 yds with the factory winchester powerpoints. When I shot them through my chrono avg fps was 3070, on the box they say 2960 but I'm assuming my 26" barrel spits them out a little faster. I also have a brake on the gun
Ok I'll start off by saying I have killed 2 elk with 180 powerpoints out of my 300 win mag, 1 bull and 1 cows. Both shots were 260 yds and shoulder shots, both were drt. I haven't used them since I've been on a hornady eldx kick for the past few years, they have been great but I recently picked...
I have hunted both units. And still currently hunt 1 of them. I ha e never left there with a tag unfilled. But lots of hunters and seems to be fewer elk every year. Find a hell hole and you'll find the elk
I have a boyds pro varmint stock for sale. It fits a short action howa 1500. Came with a 300 wsm I bought and I prefer the hogue.has been used and shows signs of wear but nothing major. Asking 110 tyd paypal, I also have a shilen 243 wssm semi heavy barrel I'd sell cheap not sure on round count

I thought the same thing, just mounted a new vortex viper on it 2 weeks ago. Had a nikon monarch previously, I switched back to the nikon and I am still getting the horrible groups. I'm not sure if the barrel has finally had it or not. I got this gun used and really don't have a record of round...
Hey guys, first post here. I am interested in this rifle in 300 win mag, just seeing if anybody has one or has messed with one. I have a savage 116 in 300 win mag now and I can't get a group under 3.5 inches at 100yds. I reload and up until this year I have always got decent 1" groups with this...
