    Heads up on a Howa Alpine 6.5 for sale

    I know these have become like hens' teeth, so I thought someone here might benefit, since it's more of a Howa crowd. https://www.24hourcampfire.com/ubbthreads/ubbthreads.php/topics/14907276/fs-nib-howa-alpine-in-6-5-creedmoor#Post14907276 I have no affiliation with the seller

    Hammer bullets?

    I feel like I'm just about to follow in your footsteps. I've always liked Barnes for monos, but the way people extol the performance of Hammers, and the very visible effort that Steve puts into making a quality product and being available for questions/input has got me close to pulling the...

    Lever Action

    As my moniker suggests, I have a 444 Marlin, the 444SS micro-groove JM model. I got it as a Christmas gift to hunt elk in thick timber, but have only shot one mule deer doe with it. I also shot my first deer with a Winchester 88 in .243, which has been handed down to me from my dad, so that I...

    What is the 1 rifle you regretted buying or wished you never had bought?

    Why not talk to Weatherby about it?

    Weatherby 300 ammo

    I second the opinion of using at least an HS-T, HS-LR, or PST if you're sticking with Vortex. Those have physical zero stops on the turrets. The Diamondback tactical doesn't have a zero stop, and if you accidentally spin the turret while walking, getting in/out of the truck or gun case, you...

    Creedmoor no more

    Ditto--what's powder savings, and how different is it than the regular 30-06AI?

    Federal bullet in 270 wsm

    https://winchester.com/Products/Ammunition/Rifle/Expedition-Big-Game/S270WSMCT Winchester still loading it at 3200fps, might be worth checking out.

    Always check your turret caps

    That would be perfect for the CDS with zero lock, but on the regular CDS dials (like the ones that come on the Howa Randy Newberg editions) don't have that feature, that I'm aware of. For that reason, I won't own anything less than something like the CDS ZL or the Vortex HS LR with shims for...

    Creedmoor no more

    Man, those LAW guns were sure hit and miss ever since they were introduced. It's a shame, too, because they seemed to check all the boxes!

    30 06 for elk and the ilk

    What velocity are you able to push the 166s?

    Montana Limited Entry Mule Deer

    Congrats to you both on some great deer with mass and character! Glad the sled worked out for you, too. My only experience with a sled was a bust--it didn't work out so well along sage and dirt; ended up just plowing a furrow into the ground, and burned a hole through it. Ended up picking up...

    93 bucks looked at, tired of looking, so,,,,

    I read that in a Dr. Seuss voice "red fish blue fish." Great buck!

    .257 Wby Mag?

    I'd say more like 800-1,000

    Always check your turret caps

    I was fortunate that it didn't spin my windage dial. I took it out to the range on Monday, dialed for 300yds, and BOOM, SMACK! Got the replacement cap in the mail today, and stuck a piece of electrical tape over it just to make sure. Hoping to see an elk on Friday.
