I would say that if you can take advatage of a two inch differance in trajectory go light if not 270 tsx. My 375H&H shoots them well and I have killed numerous animals with it.
I always bring two rifles with me to hunt Elk in the high country of Colorado. The qwestion is do I bring two 300 Win mags or two 7MM Rem mags?:confused:

Truly I belive the 06 is a great round given the right situation. I am also amazed people still get offended at such brazen statements when its obvious that I'm drinking.
My wife is much younger than me she wants to see the volcanos on the big island, and learn to surf in wikiki beach so its at least a 2 island proposition. Dont know if I'll have a whole day to hunt. Oh yeah the 30/06 sucks!
Today marks a trrible turn of events. My wife told me I could not go on anymore out of country hunts until I take her to Hawii! I'm retired have time and money in excess why would I go to an island in the middle of the Pacific? Thought the divorce thing thruogh not the best solution. Purused the...
Have so many rifles cant decide which one to bring on my may 2013 hunt for large Kudu. Should i use a classic like 7x57 or go big with my 375 H&H. Something in the middle? Help me please!!:confused:
Every year I go hunting in the Colorado high country. I pack in on horses and set up camp 10 or 15 miles into a wilderness area. Elk hunting is the most pyhisicly demanding hunt I go on in a year theres no air at 12000 ft above sea level. Does anyone else do this type of hunting? If so tell me...
Who has one whats it like recoil wise really interested in this cartridge. My last PH carried one on a P 14 action shot great groups with it off hand would like to have one.
Docman it means hes found an area with the potential to produce 60 inch Kudu. This area produces above average Kudu for whatever reason its not a garentee. Same ? I asked when we were talking about it.
Just bought a P14 action in mint shape! Looking for ideas on what cartridge to barrel it to. 450 Rigby, 505 gibbs , 416 rem add your selection there are so many good DG cartridges I cant decide. What magazine rifle cartrige have you wanted?
My wife just bought me a Winchester model 70 super grade 7mm rem mag with a boss. How do you go about working up loads? Do you just pick a load and adjust the boss? Someone with experiance please let me in on the workings of the boss attachment. Thanks in advance
:confused:Bart
I had my PH Friend look for a honest 60 inch free range Kudu. He belives he has found the right area whats a reasonable trophy fee for such a creature?
By all means take the 300 H&H it was designed for use in africa. Just practice alot it requiers a magnum action so some short stroke the bolt in the heat of the moment practice will prevent this.
As a hunter I practice out to 300meters twice a week. I know that 99% of rifle shooters dont practice this much. I know the limitations of the 30 06 and wont accept that much limitation. Hunting a 2000.00$ animal with a limited caliber is foolhardy.
At those competitions arent the targets 30 inches or more at 600 yards? Not the same as a 8x12 inch vital triangle target. My 12yo son pulls a gruop at 100 that would result in head shots at that range anyone can do it.
Well the reality is that the 06 and 308 the ballistic equal of the 06 up to 165 gr bullet wieght are being replaced by the 300win mag for sniping which says one thing velocity and range are more important than 1000's of campfire cumbyaw memories.
