Recommend me a new hunting rifle.

I have bought a few howa/Weatherby vanguard rifles now. Cheap, super accurate and reliable.
Vanguards have a better stock on the base models.

Not that hard to understand really. A shot between the headlights with a 22 kills a lot faster than a lung shot with lots of bigger guns.

He never said 6.5 wasn't enough. He said he wants shorter runs. I get it. Especially in a place where the property on which you are shooting the animal is small.

Different countries, different norms. Unless you can demonstrate they have a higher percentage of wounded and unrecovered game than we do, it cannot be called unethical.

This is where I exit the craziness of the internet. I just ttimmed and sized some 7saum brass and now I have to weigh some powder while I load my backpack and organize my meals and tent to go do some actual hunting on my next days off. See you guys on the otherside.

Happy hunting.

Better attention to detail too IMO. Actions smoother, nicer trigger etc.

Is this a riddle?
You can't kill an elk with a cup of coffee?
A bottle of booze?
A tin of dip?
A cup of tea?

Perhaps a hat?

You are a riddle.

Sometimes, that is not just in Europe - Some years ago I was drawn for mule deer - we hunted a ranch that is now about centre of the Grasslands National Park - was not at the time - along the Frenchman River - there were two private owned ranches, basically surrounded by National Park. I stopped at the Game Warden station at Val Marie - they warned me not to get caught crossing into the Park - blood trail, wounded animal did not matter. They had satellites watching the border into Montana - so they could watch you, too. One mule deer buck definitely knew where that fence was - we had to get that one down right away.
