RE: Anti's finally got me

Kodiak,

RE: .22LR enough for coyotes?

I think like the rest. The 22 LR is not enough, but if you have nothing else then equip it with CCI Stingers. Keep your range close and try to shoot them in the head. If you shoot them through the...

RE: .270 WSM (vs.) 30:06

RE: getting the sheds

According to our state biologists, if you find a shed, work outward from it in a spiral out to 100 yards. They claim that often the other one is within 100 yards if an animal hasn't carried it off.

RE: review on .270

I have and hunt with both a 243 and a 270. As far as a 243 being limited to 200 yds, I'd kill very few deer. I am a good shot and with the 243 I have killed 2 over 300 yds(one at 450 ie not...

RE: Best way to get deer from field to truck

If you have to drag him any distance at all, don't split him from stem to stern. Only make a cut big enough to roll out the guts below the rib cage. This keeps out lots of grass and leaves. As...

RE: Take the doe? or wait to see if a buck is followi?
