First ever muley!!

I went out today in search of my first ever mule deer. I was drawn along with my good buddy Zach and his dad. Leading up to the hunt, Zach and his dad had seen this deer on a couple occassions and Zach told me he thought I might want to get a good look at this one. Today started out with a very thic...

Re: RIFLE RECOMMENDATION

I use an '06 for both mulies and whitetail up here in Saskatchewan. Plenty of gun for these big bodied brutes. I'm thinking of using a 150gr Hornady Interbond this year...my gun LOVES them!!!

Re: Bullet choice for whitetails/muleys

Well I think I've found my bullet for this fall. This past couple weeks I have been to the range a few times and so far the 150 grain Hornady Interbond in my 30-06 has been the most accurate of the ammo I have shot. I have been able to get a few 1" 5 shot groups at 100 yards off the bag.

Re: Hornandy bullets

The only experience I have so far with Hornady ammo has been at the range in the past couple weeks. At 100 yards, I'm getting a 1" 5 shot group with a 150 grain Interbonds out of my 30-06. I think I've found the pill of choice for my deer hunts this fall. The only ammo I've used to take a deer was a...

Bullet choice for whitetails/muleys

Now that the draw results are out and I'm starting to get really excited for the upcoming season, thoughts have turned to gear. Just curious as to what bullets are going to be flying at deer this year. I'm undecided on my bullet of choice this year. Last season I took my whitetail with a 165 grain F...

Re: show me your whitetail Pics

Here is my '07 whitetail. It's the first deer I have ever shot so I was pretty pleased! This year I've been drawn for mulies in the same area where I got this guy. Going to be a fun fall!!!
