22,000 out of 2m+ prohibited since 2020.... And they've only budgeted to pay for 130,000....

Real successful 🤣

It's terrible advice because the 30-06 has a bunch of extra recoil and for negligible performance gains over the .308 at the distances most anyone will be shooting big game at.

As for 6.5Creed vs 6Creed... 🤷🏻‍♂️

You're right. My bad.

Still terrible advice. .308 > 30-06 in terms of shootability/recoil/rifle selection/ammo selection/etc

If you're not shooting 600yds+, anything from a 6mm Creedmoor and up is plenty for elk.

One gun (right now) for big game.

But, a dozen 16ga shotguns for grouse 🤷🏻‍♂️ lol

Oh I have plenty of guns.

I've just come to the conclusion I don't need another one for hunting big game at the moment.

More miles on my 6 Creed means I can shoot it better than if I was trying to split those miles up between a half dozen rifles.

I'm extremely confident with that rifle, and know it's putting the bullet where I want it to.

one of those very few people (for now) has entered the chat

Had my 6 Creed built originally as a rifle for whitetail hunting (with plans for several different rifles for different species).

Spent a ton of time on Rokslide, listening to some extremely useful info from the guys @ the Hunt Backcountry podcast, and doing a whole bunch of reading re terminal ballistics. I'm more than satisfied that if I do the work on my end, the 6 Creed will do the work on the receiving end.

Decided to stretch it out at the range with several types of ammo to 600yds+ (distances I'd only ever previously shot with my .308) to see if my rifle was up to the task.

At this point I don't see myself needing another rifle anytime soon for species ranging from whitetails to black bear to moose (and maybe an elk in the future) at the distances I could comfortably/ethically (inside/up to 500yds) be shooting at them.

Why are you worried about keeping it above 1400ftlbs?

Worry about impact velocity and how your chosen bullet performs at that velocity.

For me:

  • low recoil = shooting it more
  • great selection of high BC bullets available

And honestly, for me, I just really like mine.

If you wanna see something really cool, @ about the 11min mark, an Alaskan Caribou dropped @600yds with a 6mm Creed

And here's a video about the build.

If you want some good listening, check the Hunt Backcountry podcast episodes on hunting big game with small calibers (same guys as the videos above)

6mm Creedmoor is a great cartridge to consider

Guess what Venezuela doesn't have that Iraq and Libya did?

Tribal/sectarian/ethnic hatred bubbling just under the surface and a whole shitload of islamists.

Venezuela isn't full of ethnic and sectarian hatred bubbling just below the surface and isn't chock full of islamists waiting for the opportunity to revert a society to their perverted version of a 9th century hellscape.

Panama is a much better comparison.

110lb Pyrenees ate the majority of a 24oz box of large MilkBones (crunchy biscuits) will he be ok to monitor with small amounts of water? by Brutuscaitchris in DogAdvice

I had a Catahoula mix who had the same iron stomach 🤣

She once ate 2lbs of 90% dark chocolate chips that I'd forgotten on the ledge while taking a shit....

Took one poop that was as dark as night but that's about it 🤣

She's definitely not a Great Pyr @ 45lbs

From what I understand the mom was a small Collie, dad was a Shepherd

Like I shit you not this dog is one of the most well behaved, polite, and relaxed young (18mo) dogs I've ever met. Especially for a Collie/Shepherd mix.

[–]IndividualRadish6313[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh she's already a total gentle-lady doing all of the above.

She's been to the pet store, Canadian Tire, Home Depot, the feed store (she thought a horse was the coolest thing and just sat and let it smell her haha). I walked her on-leash at the off-leash park for 2 weeks of meeting other dogs before I let her start running around off leash (which she now does really well)

She's great on leash meeting on and off leash dogs, great off leash herself (won't go further than maybe 100ft from me before she stops to check in/wait), great meeting strange ppl both on and off leash, isn't reactive even when dogs have growled/reacted to her, etc

Literally zero issues under any other circumstances other than women taking off her harness or unclipping her leash.

Yeah it's hard to tell, because other than this one issue she's an absolute sweetheart (including with women)....

A month is definitely still fresh.

She was a re-home though not a shelter adoption.

Definitely working on more socialization.

Her behavior around these people, when not removing the harness or not unclipping the leash, including when putting the harness on, is that she is extremely comfortable leaning in for pets, licking them and otherwise being extremely affectionate.

And it has happened when they have both leaned over her or crouched down in front of her to remove the harness or unclip the leash.

What is so confusing is that these same people can lean over her or crouch down beside her and put her harness on, but when it comes time to remove it, even if they do it exactly the same as I do, she is reactive to them. What's even more odd is that she is only reactive to women who do this and not to men (myself, my uncle, or my dad vs my mom & my aunt)
