I am looking for one that can be used prone and sitting. All of the ones I have seen are Either prone Or sitting.

Nice animal. I wish we had those things here in Virginia. The partition has been bustin' bone for a long time. I was thinking about the partition before I posted. I just wanted to get some feedback on some of the newer stuff, in particular the TSX. Thanks Rick.

Yes the deer did die, but I spent most of the morning looking for him because of no blood. And as for the cost of premium bullets. I don't mind paying more because I won't be shooting it a great deal (as compared to my 204 . I'll probably shoot the partion.

I have just never deer hunted with anything as small as the .25 before. I just want to make sure it punches a hole out the other side. As I said earlier, I had a bad experience with a 120gr. BT from a 7-08. No exit hole and no blood. When I skinned the deer I found the jacket under the skin on the f...

Few weeks back I bought a 2506 barrel for my encore. It will be strictly a whitetail gun. I don't know if I should use the new barns TSX or one of the new bullets from Nosler. I"ll be shooting 100gr. so I want to stay away from the original ballistic tip( had a bad experience with a 120grnr fro...

I just bought myself a post Christmas present with some gift cards I got for presents. Nikon Buckmaster 3-9x40. I really like this scope. I notice I can pick up the retical quickly when I bring the scope to my eye. And Light transmition is great. When I compared it to a VXII 3-9x40 I have, it seems ...

Thinking of getting a 375 JDJ barrel for my encore (rifle). Between that and a 405 win. My problem is I can't find any reloading info online for it. Any of you guys have it in a newer manual or know where I can get it online. The Hogdon website had some powder charges but no pessure listed.

I heard that wsm cases split pretty easily. Is this true. I had a guy ask me about the 300wsm and 7mmwsm. He was looking into them and ask for my opinion. I have only shot the belted mags and have no experience with the short mags

I have a chance to get a 6mmBR barrel for my TC. I know it will shoot the light stuff all day long. I was wanting to get it for a heavy varminter/deer rifle. My question is this. How well does it shoot the 100gr. stuff? Both of my reloading manuals only talk about the light bullets. Would it be leat...

I have 2 204's. the one I want to use to kill these dogs is a TC encore. It shoots the vmax better than the 39 gr. sierras. Will it be enough? I am not worried about fur or anything. these yotes are killing deer and pets. And I have been asked to fix the problem. If I still had my 220 swift I would ...

I am planning on getting one of these very soon but can't make up my mind. I have had experience with the 243 before. But not the Roberts. It will not be a varmint gun, but rather my other deer rifle(7mmSTW). Is there anyone out there who has shot/ hunted with both? My heart says Roberts, but want t...

I have been shooting my 204's since back in Feb., but today was my first kill. Went out today to kill a groundhog or two, but could only bag a crow. One shot one kill from about 280 yds. 39gr. BK's from my Savage. I was suprised there was no poof of feather. I could not find entrance or exit. just a...

I have got a couple of ?'s. What is the case life difference between annealed cases and not? Also, was Smokin' Aces any good? I have been wanting to see it.

Welcome, and sweet freakin gun. Let us know how it shoots.

How easy is it to just drive out and get permission to shoot pd's without useing a guide of some sort for us folks back east.
