I guess it depends on if he sees you or not, and how close. If he charges you, thats good. You can put another round in him. If he scampers off into the trees, he might go frisking over and eat someone else up. With dangerous game you have a responsibility to KEEP it your problem, not...

Bear is always a short range deal, even with a rifle. Dont want to take the risk of wounding an animal and having it get away. Lotsa hair, hide, fat, meat to get through.

I wonder where he shot him? Obviously needed to miss the skull but that guide had him DRT! Maybe he did brain him? That close I would think most any shot and the bears momentum would carry him into you anyway.

270 in an 06? Just rattle down the bore and probably tumble all the way to the ground! Happened to dad on an elk hunt once.

Yes, he makes the brass. Not sure if it a mulit die set with forming dies or not, i will ask him. I am sure he ends up trimming and he said he is going to have to start annealing. The remington brass he gets has the large primer pocket and is notnas good as the Hornady with the small pocket...

Visited with the gunsmith today at NAPA. Was not a good visit............. My 25-06 improved project is back on. Looking forward to that! He has devolved a new cartridge and got dies made by Redding. It is a 6.8 SPC round necked down to .22. He is getting 3750 out of a 25 inch barrel...

Nice one! Good eating on the way.

I guess we have them here too. Not common up here I where I live I guess. \...

sharpie sage grouse

The other birds up here are Sage grouse, and sharptailed grouse. The sage grouse and the Sharpies are very stoooopid. Sage being the dumbest. Yep, you could kill them with a rock. They used to eat a lot of them, not because they taste good, but because they were plentiful and dumb. The...

That sounds great! Do you cook it through or leave it kind of pink in the middle?

Shit, why cant I post images anymore Butch? When I right click on an image I dont have the copy image URL option anymore. That is what you wrap in the [img] tags isn't it?

How do you cook them Scott? We have a little bird here called the Hungarian Partridge. I have been told that they are better eating than pheasant. I just find them too cute to shoot! I am a softie anymore!

Crud, it says no longer available.

Yep, that oughtta do it!

My friend has built exactly 1 stock. He hated the job Jay. We had a stock maker in the area for a while. My favorite was a birds eye maple stock on a Mark V Weatherby. I was about 15 when he died, and he had Alzheimer's a while before that. I could have not afforded one anyway! Did you...

Yeah, no first hand experience. My gunsmith friend says about 200 or 250 fps faster. Still no .257 Weatherby, but not bad! Of course you wont have to load max, but he did say that often times his 25 imp shoots best at max. He likes improved rounds, they dont stretch! His current...

Yeah, I have thought about that. One of my good friends is a great gunsmith, I lease him some land for hunting. We trade for gunsmithing! I was worried about how narrow the butt is. With that crescent plate it looks about half as thick as a shotgun style. Would be better than how it is...

Yeah, it is one of those reproductions from Japan with the safety on the tang, 26 inch octagon barrel. I would love to find a shot gun style stock for it, but for some silly reason they are hard to find. Maybe a replacement stock for a model 71 could be made to fit, they were designed pretty...

I have some LeverRev loads for my 45-70. I would like to shoot that rifle more, but the stoopid crescent but stock does not fit my shoulder well. Its an '86 Winchester.
