I finished up my deer season this year hunting in Alabama for a few days. The weather was lousy, cool and wet. I shot the only deer that I saw in 3 days of hunting. Fortunately for me it was a pretty good one. My Ruger Hawkeye Hunter in 30-06 is on a roll and the Hornady SSTs are dynamite on deer.

California a few years ago. 

Not sold yet. I'll get a photo for you when I get home later today.

I got my new die set and bullets yesterday, so I figured I might as well load some up today. I loaded up some 338 ARC sub-sonic rounds for my new rifle that I am patiently waiting for Ruger to make available. I used Hornady 307 gr. Sub X and matched them with Lil' Gun and CFE Black. The bullet...

Sorry to hear that, but don't feel too alone. The 100 gr. hot cores are dynamite on deer; I have used it on a bunch of them.

The first gun I ever bought was a 760 in 30-06. I bought it from a friend's grandfather who was unfortunately going blind. It was 1971 and he had bought it in 1965, it was in like new condition, and he was asking $150 for it. When I went to pick it up, he threw in a spare magazine, 2 boxes of...

It's wood

Yes it's threaded for a suppressor, no iron sights.

Well, I thought that I had it sold but they decided that they need a 338 Lapua instead.

My deer hunting this year started in Wyoming with a decent 4 x 5 in Oct. with my 30-06Then on to Texas in Nov. for a nice 10 pt. also with my 30-06And a few weeks ago here in PA a broken off 4 pt. with my 300 Blk.

I have a Mossberg Patriot/Vortex in 338 Win Mag for sale. I bought it a year or so ago on a whim and decided that since I already have a 338 WM that I really don't need it. I have fired it maybe 35 - 40 times, it shoots well enough, but I've replaced it with a 300 WM. It has a 24" threaded...

300 Blackout 194 gr. Lehigh Defense / Maximum Expansion Muzzle velocity 1015 FPS PA Whitetail buck, broadside about 50 yards Performed perfectly, nicked a rib going in, totally destroyed the lungs, went through a rib on the offside, hit the backside of the shoulder and I found it caught up in...

My bush thumper!

No monster bucks for me in 2024 deer season, but a couple of nice ones for the pot and frying pan. A nice fat 3x3 in WY in Oct., followed by a nice little 9pt. in Texas in Dec., then a first for me in PA a hard antlered 5 pt. doe. Until I rolled her over to field dress her, I thought that I had...

Very cool!
