Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles I know a few do, but????

How can that be? Everybody knows that real hunters start at 600 and move back from there.....

Thanks

I've done much the same with a S&w 640 and 38 Spl wadcutters on Northern Pike. I had one a smidge over 38" on a fly rod that was introduced to the experience. A little splash but it made life a little easier getting the bugger in the canoe.

What kind of peep you running on that? I have a '24 vintage 250-3000 quarter turn take down wearing a Williams peep of the same year. I'm always looking for a reasonable priced 300 for beating the brush. My 250 is in such good condition and being my grandfathers I'm reluctant to take it out and mark it up. I should just use the damn thing but I have enough hunting rifles and I don't really have any need or justification. Not to mention I would feel chitty if I [bleep] it up.

I have found a good stash of 170gr Hornady RN's for the 8mm. Looking at the ranges here I can get here in west washington jungle, I will switch to these for deer. Already have a load using IMR 3031 that chugs along at 2500 fps.
