To much thought is put into finding the perfect caliber. Just find one that you feel more comfortable shooting and go hunting. For the animals the OP listed I would say go with the 270 mainly due to the cost of ammo. I have always believed bigger is not always better and shot placement is...

I cant help you out with any land but I can give you a little helpful info. There are two words that do not go together and that is affordable and hunting lease. I have been looking for the same thing for the past couple of years and could not find anything. I was even looking as far as 8 hrs...

Thanks for the info. Not worried about the recoil. The one I shot 6 years ago, I used for a weekend of bird hunting. The only reason I was using that gun was because I broke the stock on mine. The guy thought about selling it to me and even named a price. His story changed when I said I...

I want to purchase an over/under 12 gauge and think I have made my mind up on the Winchester 101 Pidgeon grade XTR. The main purpose will be for bird hunting with a little skeet shooting. Is there anything anyone can tell me about this gun. I have shot one before and I thought it was the...

Taliv If it is still for sale. I am interested. PM me please.

I could not agree with you more Abel. When I was growing up I had no money but enjoyed hunting. I bought a used cheap 270 Savage that shots a 1.5 MOA and a Mosseburg pump from Kmart for under $200 that does not pattern very good. Did I curse the guns? No. I was just happy to be hunting. As...

Thanks Jbech. I didnt want to comment on Abel's post. I figured if I did it would just draw attention to his ignorance. It is people like him that take the fun and education out of a sights like THR.

Thanks everyone, I orderd several boxes at several different weights based on some of your suggestions and on some of mine. Hopefully one of them will work.

Yes Abel, I know that. This is not my first rifle. If you read the post above I was just wanting to see what works for others so maybe it will cut down on the process of elemintation. If ten people said x bullet at x grain shoots best out of their rifle it would be one I would try. I...

Krochus I know what you mean. I am sure you know as well as I do how many types and weights of ammo are out there for any caliber. If you read the post above I dont have the time to try all of them. I am looking for a few good ones I can start with to try to make the process go a little...

dakotasin I just went to hornady site and light and heavy mag are discontinued due to there Superformance™ Ammunition.

Thanks Art and yes I do a considerable amount of LR shooting. I am not just getting started. This is just my first 7 mag I am setting up for long range and am short on time. I need to start with a good bullet and make sure it will group good so I can get the turrets ordered and still have...

I am looking for a very good factory load for a Rem. 7 mag. I thought I was going to have time to play with the gun before my next hunt but the hunt got moved up to mid March. I sold my rifle I use for long range hunting and purchased a Rem 700 XHR 7 mag and just ordered a Leupold...

I dont know about the Rem. but I sold a Ruger M77 338 win mag a few weeks ago and the guy brought the target by to show me how the gun shot. It was a clover leaf 3 shot group at 100yds.

NCIS has a record of the stolen serial numbers. They want him to call and give the number matches one on there list. They know he bought an item that is on the stollen list, I guess they just want to make sure it is the correct aimpoint by matching the serial numbers. Ebay does not require you...
