Happy New Years to all! May it bring us everything we hope for. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That's not true with Roy mags at all. I've had a bunch. The steel is up to the task for sure. They are also (at this point) not the fastest kids on the block any more. The STW, RUM, and now the Nosler rounds all smoke the B's. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks you too. I'll let you know. And the school is closed. It was a sad story. A lot of abuse issues of the kids that were court mandated to be there. The owner of the Festival Camp bought the place and has turned it into a sports summer camp. There's a lot of deer in there. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Not derailing at all. There's a 2.5 on Klondike Rd by the blue stone yard that looks like the one the Tomar guys had. I'll ask when I'm up next week what's up. There is feed corn growing down by Shea Rd. It's not the far away for deer to be feeding there. We haven't seen that in French Woods. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Really. They weren't locals from what I recall. A bunch of electricians from NYC and NJ. Weren't they?? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

French Woods area. Where are you? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

They are very accurate in my BAR as well. I wanted to get a chance with them this year. But had no shooter bucks and no doe tags that is extensive damage. Was that from the second shot? I know Winchester says they are designed to shed a lot of energy rapidly. That is more than I expected to see. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Didn't matter how many I had this year. No shots fired. No doe tags and I saw no shooter bucks. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I lost a nice 8 pointer five years ago to the Superformance garbage in 270 Win. Hit him square in the shoulder and tracked drips of blood for about 300 yards until it stopped bleeding. Crap in a ice cream cone wrapper. Stick to Federal or Winchester ammo and you'll drop deer every time.

great story, great buck! congrats. I'm a big BAR fan so great choice in rifles as well. What caliber and ammo was that you used? How did the wounds look when you dressed him out?

anyone ever try a doe decoy?

It's a dwarf yote!

I mostly will hunt with a Browning BAR. So one magazine of 4 rds in the rifle and a spare in my pocket. A total of 8 rds. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Always liked the Icon sorry that TC didn't stick with that line. They are really innovative with a ton of features. I have heard they are great shooters as well. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That came from a NY Times Article on Monday that referred to what demographics Trump would have needed to win enough popular votes to win the electorate. The biggest piece (per the NYT) was the "poorly educated 20 to 54 year olds". Don't kill the messenger. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

okay, all the tables say I'm wrong on this.

http://www.ballisticstudies.com/Knowledgebase/Basic+Rifle+Accuracy+and+Ballistics.html sorry to be the bubble burster.....

I'd say 2" groups at 100 should be the worst we should use and try to do better. There're no points lost for accuracy ever. Talk to the ag land hunters. They'll not only tell you the same, they'll say it's more important because they are often shooting in the last moments of legal light. 2" at 100 is 8" at 200. Recall this is a game of acceleration over distance so the physics of it is Point of impact x Distance squared. (2x2)2"= 8". Still okay for a deer at 200 yds. The furthest I ever shot a deer in NY unrested was a nudge better than 200 yds. The rifle was an older 77 in 270 Win that I should have never sold. Different story. In Flint Virginia on cattle land our shots start at that distance and go well beyond 300. We check our zero at 300 our fist day on that ranch every year. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The anti's plus Hillary and Chuck would love to read that one. If it's all the same to you I'll stick with shot placement being everything, pick a piece of hair on the vitals. Focus on it and squeeze the trigger. If you have 1000' pounds left wherever that distance is then your being ethical. Shot placement is everything. I'd also bet that AK47 soviet sewing machine has maimed and wounded a lot. Last time I checked we are all about ethics and doing the right thing. No umpire in the tree next to us telling us right from wrong. We have to feel it down to our bones. So no sir, in my opinion there is no credibility comparing modern sport hunting to anything a AK47 was ever intended to do by Kolosnikov. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yeah accuracy is soooo overrated!!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Maybe I'm just lucky cause I'm not that good but I've never had a deer take a second step using a 150 gr bullet from a 30-06. And for semi auto shooters be really weary about heavier bullets. They can actually damage the action due to longer pressure curves. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
