Currently hunting isn't just against the rules, it's against the law until the 22nd April, and beyond that if the Health notice is extended. And if on public land without permission from DOC it's...

I have had 22lr, 22mag and 223 for about 25 years. Some things to consider... if noise is an issue, 22lr with suppressor and subsonic ammo is by far the quietest, 22mag has more range than 22lr,...

For hunting I would go vx5hd 3-15x44 firedot. I had one and really liked it, but sold the rifle it was on and wouldn’t fit my other rifles unless I removed the rear open sight. You can still dial for...

Any of the three would do the job, but I like the 90gr eld-x. It's very accurate and performed well on targets out to 550m and gongs to 860m.

For my rifle (Brno ZKK601) and aiming for 0.02 off the lands, COAL is 2.66 inches for the eld-x, 2.64 for the 100gr Prohunter, and 2.56 for the 85gr hpbt Gameking. Sierra manual uses 2.65 for both...

Not with the Sub-X projectiles yet, but have developed loads with shooternz's 151gr hp cast bullets and Trailboss. Subsonic for the 30-30 (16 inch barrel) and slow twist 308 (24 inch) was 7.5 grains...

I fairly regularly travel to the rifle range about 1.5 to 1.75 hrs drive away with several rifles, and always have to stop for a pee and or a pie. Rifles are in cases or bags and covered, along with...
