Corey's Big Buck Taken at 70 yards

It's all about rifles for hunting big mule deer on today's episode.  Robby hosts fellow buck hunter Corey Dixon to talk about how they both arrived at similar rifle systems independent from one another.  They talk about average shot distance on their last 10 big mule deer and why this distance requires a certain class of rifles and optics (they're not saying other systems won't work).  These 10 different scenarios also demonstrate why a hunter needs to be able to react quickly on some shots and needs a fast-handling, quick-shooting rifle.

A few highlights of their rifles:

-Less than 7.75lbs

-Non dialable scopes

-Flat shooting calibers with bullets under 143 grains

They also talk about how they practice in the off-season with these rifles.  Listen in to their interesting discussion on rifles for hunting big mule deer.
