Hi Chip
Sorry about the loss of your knife. after A while you sort of get attached to them. I have used the same Buck 105 Pathfinder for 25 years. It is standard eqpt. on my belt for anything woods related and of course made in the USA with A bible verse with every knife cant go wrong there. I bought my twinn boys Buck knifes to for there 1st hunting season. and for Christmas ordered them the Buck Gut hooks and Bone saws. Of course 2 of every thing. But On A Bitter note the Bone saws wich are realy wood saws are made in china. Whoed A thunk it. But im anal that way Have A buck knife you need buck everything else. I like having A fixed blade just in case you need it fast.
Good luck in your search.im sure you will end up with what suits you.

Hi Jim
Do you mean 250 Gr. I would like those my self. 300 gr. would be as long as A pencil

Great Terry
I to am heading up to the deer woods in northern MI. for the same thing. Herd far to many of them at dusk. And was thinking had better do my best to remove what I can to haelp the deer out. I will see what santa brings as far as A new electronic caller but I have herd go reports on the scerry jack rabbit call as well. Good luck.

Ditto. That is A very hard lesson. and Very Sorry to hear.

My 2 cents I live in MI. where 200 yards is A long shot. But theres A reason I have A 300 Wby. mag with A 4-12 power scope Im just being honest here. If conditions were right that being no to low wind im confident to take A shot out to 500 yards  on that trophy of A life time  with using only  hold over. Wind is A whole diffrent ball game. A 10 mph cross wind can blow A 30-06 bullet 3 feet now im guessing with no refrence to lean on. I have read stories where the guide says give him A fence post. Meanig the lead of the fence post spacing on running game thats just nuts.But with all the tools that ae now out range finders and wind gauges it does promte hunters to try. but even with All that for me 500 yards would be my limit with good conditions and knowin my trajectory inside out. There are 2 reasons Bear guides make you get close 1 so you have An accurate hit. the other of course so you have maxium energy. those same rules should apply just to be ethical.

that sounds interesting I like that kind of stuff. I have heard that A 250 gr. 338 will out penatrate A 300 gr. 375 all day long. Would be interesting to find out.

Thanks WbyMan.
Good Eye Thats good to know. I have allways liked those blocks.And will probanly break down and get one some day. Thanks for the heads up.
