A couple of forum members and I went over to the east coast for 2 nights. Them with all their trad gear and me loaded up with tech stuff. I hunted by myself - not that they shunned me - but thats how...

The thread title is "A question for the doubters" - we are now approaching 300 posts, to the OP - do you feel validated? There's been some good discussion sure, not sure if anything has been...

My first centrefire was a 243win. An absolute pos BSA. My latest one is a 1:8 twist Tikka shooting 108gn ELD-Ms. As yet I have only shot a handful of animals with it at distances from 25 to 388...

I set up a .243 for the kids/missus to use. Shortend stock. Low bipod and basic holdover reticle scope. I load 90 gr Speers with 2208, works really well. They have all taken deer with it. Son even...
