I've kilt many an elk with the 45-70, of the big Roosevelt flavor! My favorite load consists of a 420gr cast at 1512fps. I've yet to need a second shot and have never recovered a bullet.

You know, how many times have we heard someone say, or read someone saying, "we need someone NEW leading the Country, someone from OUTSIDE of Washington, someone like US"? How many times have WE said something like that? How many of the Ron Paul followers said something like that? Or anyon...

I have taken a couple nice bucks and one elk with the 300gr Speer in the .444. I get about 1900fps with it out of my T/C and never recovered any of the bullets. There was a bit of indication on all of them as to some expansion, especially the elk!

I've turned into my Dad :oops: I have 3 or 400 of each make of bullet but I save them for a 'rainy day'. Instead, I seem to kill all my elk with cast bullets when using a .45-70! So, I have never killed anything but a deer and a couple grouse with the 400gr Speer and 405gr Remington. My Dad still to...

In my Marlin Cowboy I use a 278gr cast sized to .379 and 31.5grs of 3031. I don't know the velocity but it even an elk can't stop it

On my 14th birthday (some 35 years ago :shock: ) my Uncle gave me a 1939 Winchester Model 64 in 25-35. Along with it he provided 20 boxes of W-W 117gr FN! The rifle is so accurate I'm not going to explain. But it is the neatest gun I've ever owned, and the most accurate rifle. And I've went through ...

Awesome looking country! It almost feels like I've been there. Maybe I have........

My son and his hunting partner who is bowhunting for elk pulled in this morning. They got a small bull. His partners first big game kill. A pretty excited young feller!

I'm a huge fan of both Williams and Lyman receiver sights and a 1/16" bead front. I HAVE to have a bead because in the dark timber a post doesn't show up. Nothing worse on a dark rainy day in heavy timber to ease up on a nice bull and find that when you pull your rifle up, there is nothing ther...

If I 'heard' this correctly, some are thinking of thinning their 'herd'? :lol: :lol: :lol: That thought occasionally crosses my mind. But instead I usually will sell off 2 or 3 to upgrade with one NICE one and that tends to keep my herd thinned more than enough :shock: But what I do from time to tim...

She's young, pretty and pro-gun but is she really VP material? Y'all might think on these points a little: "McCain has chosen a small-town gal without credentials to be one heartbeat away from the U. S. presidency. Just 20 months ago, according to her biography, she was mayor of a town of 8,00...

Since it probably won't happen to me again, i'll play :mrgreen: I've got to (after retyping this 3 times after 2nd thoughts!) go with one of my Marlin Cowboys in .44 magnum. After first thinking of either my 86 in 45-70, then going to my .348, I had to finally go with the .44. Big enough to take any...

I have a Model 64 in 25-35 that is the most accurate rifle I've ever shot. Better than any bolt *I've* owned. 5 five shot groups one day, the largest being 3/4" and the smallest 2 were 1/2". That is with 1960's factory W-W 117gr ammuntion. I've not yet found any handloads that will break 1...

Bobby Jindal had been my choice until about 2 months ago I saw Sarah Palin on Glenn Beck's TV show. It helped she was 8 years old than Jindal. Right then I knew that she was the best choice for a VP slot and hopefully run for President in 4 years! A Palin-Jindal ticket anyone? :shock: :mrgreen: 44

Hi to all And Hi to you too! My first 30-30 was a Savage 24 30-30/20g over/under. It has taken alot of deer here in Ga Tell me more! I have a 30-30/20 ga also. What loads do you use for the 30-30, what sort of game have you taken with the 20ga barrel? Is it a full choke like mine too? Do you use it...

54.1 degrees here at after 9 am! I forgot to look at the thermometer when I got up at 5 am, I bet it was close to 45 degrees last night. Fall has definately fallen. Elk are starting to bugle.

Good luck! Looks like you should be pretty well armed! I buy a bear tag every year but just don't shoot them anymore. Last one I went ahead and shot was about 10 years ago and used 9gr Unique with a 250gr cast out of a .44 pistol at about 75 yards. It only weighed about 230lbs at the butchers, but w...

As far as I know, I'll be hunting with a couple Marlin Cowboys in .44, one scoped, one not. Also I'll be using my Marlin Cowboy in 38-55 for my 'long range' rifle...... :lol: But I also plan to take my .348 out a few times elk hunting, with some Barnes 250's. If I get my Ruger #1 in 45-70 back from ...

I'll have to tell my buddy that only owns a .357 and .30-30, both in Marlins!

I had biked 15 miles to the range with the Win and two enormous 54 smokepoles plus sundry ammo, roundball, and range stuff in tow on a BOB trailer. I needed an early start to avoid a headwind so I skipped breakfast and was downright starving en route back home. So I sallied forth to a nearby place ...

For as Liberal as Washington State is, our gun laws are pretty good. Could be better somehow I reckon, but still pretty good considering. I went into Wendys this past Saturday with a Win 94 strapped to my back. Nobody batted an eye, let alone called the cops. I'm curious. Why were you walking into a...

Many others talk of leverguns as their "go to gun". What is your status in a bad times scenario. I know most of what we talk here is hunting or just plain "shooting fun" with leverguns but how many are prepared in their local for this type of scenario? I have a loaded 24" M...

1) Enforce our current laws to the hilt and dry up the illegal alien job market. 2) Come up with some kind of Guest Worker program that would control the numbers and make certain they were not taking jobs Americans want. Cool. We are in complete agreement since that is my own personal thoughts too....

That was the first article I read when my issue came in. I devoured it! Sure glad my Dad didn't know that 25-20's and 32-20's are under powered. He took his deer every year with a '92 in 25-20 and an 85gr bullet he cast and loaded over too much 2400.....at least I 'think' it was too much! Nearly eve...
