Just thought I would drop by. Its hard to get online when you don't have the internet now. Bear season has started but I havn't got out yet. Antelope is two weekends away. Pretty much all set up. Ran out of Deep Curls and money is tight so I'll be hunting again this year with the 300 XTP Mag. Pretty confident for 200 and 300 yard shots if the wind is right. The more I use the Nikon BDC I like it better and better. Other than that not much is going on and no new guns or toys to report on. Won't post probably unless I kill something. Wish you guys to best of luck this season and hope someone finally kills that darn "thirdy point buck"!!!

A 300 grain XTP will certainly serve you well 50Cal. Three hundred yards is a mighty far piece. What kind of groups do you get at that range with the BDC?
