Night Greg

Evening Mick.


Shot placement Lou. Its pretty entertaining when we get US hunters up here hunting moose with .300 weatherbys, .338 and huge calibers. When they ask what we use, they laugh. Apparently a .270, 7mm rem mag or .30-06 won't kill a moose.

My 30.-06 has plenty of power! Get old to shoot though. I'd like to have a lighter rifle and semi auto.

I hear you there. I took out the .30-30 lever action today, thinking we are deer hunting. Left the 7mm home hahaha. The boy shoots a Tikka .270 WSM. That is a nice rifle.

Evenin, Tim. Watching the World Series. High scoring game given the great pitching both teams have.

My hunting rifle is a Parker Hale 30-06 safari. Nice enough but nothing special.

Mine is a Remington 700 Stainless 7mm rem mag. Quite a few animals were put on the table with it.

I haven't caught a game yet. Last world series I watched was when Toronto was in it.
