WOW WOW

Saw the other comment on the hook set and I agree, but wanted to ask, how do Walleye fight where you live at, the walleye in my state, or at least my area seem lazy as fuck lol

Great video!

How tall are you? You must be a tank if you make a wallet like that like so small, great fish tho! Tight lines

Nice walleye. If u guys ever get at chance...go fish Otisco lake in upstate ny. Its near skanaetles, ny. Great walleye and muskie fishing. Trust you wont regret it. Walleye & Muskies get massive there cause of all the live bait chilling in the lake.

Damn mine was 25 in

Finally, someone who sets the hook like it is a walleye and not a goliat grouper

Which 7mm is King? …??? Any 7mm that works for the shooter..wouldn’t you agree there Mr Wales? Cartridge comparisons is/has been around for decades..astonishing how nowadays everything is “The Next Best Mom’s Apple Pie”..!! Why don’t people just learn how to shoot whatever chambering works for them?? There was a time the 300 Savage was the cartridge to have for bear..polar bears no less…and anything else that walked in North America!! From 7 Mauser to 284 Winchester to 280 Remington to 7mm RemMag…put in the right hands with practice snd “Decent” hunting skills and knowledge…who cares!! Walk into a ammo store…what cartridge do you suppose is more easily found? ??? 7mm RemMag and it’s performance is AOK!! Not perfect…but no 7mm is. Eh?

All of those mentioned are perfect for whitetail inside 300 yards! When you head past 300.. a magnum would be a better choice.. my opinion That being said.. most game is harvested inside 200 yards.. with the majority inside 75 yards.. at least in the north east! There are the field shots.. and ridge shots.. but most hunting is in the woods here. My personal favorite is the 7mm-08.. but I've used the 358 Winchester as well! My 358 Winchester is my dedicated black bear rifle.. and I rotate rifles hunting whitetail. I've used the 303 British.. the 30-06; Springfield.. the 7mm-08.. the 350 Remington Mag.. the 350 legend and the 358 Winchester.. and the results were very similar 😊 Great video

Awesome

Pretty cool to see those pike up close to the boat!

Figure 8 time😂😢🎉

You did not show the bait.Or you set up so this video didn't mean much

i just bought this reel and rod from watching your video. can i use j braid x8 instead of cortland master braid because its too expensive to ship to canada ?

Another awesome video. I am headed up to Amisk in 2 weeks. Just curious when this was and what the lake levels were like. I’ve heard they are low.

Which one do you think cast farther? Thanks

He outsmarted you.....nice! 🤣🤣

Completely and absolutely 💯 percent avoidable....and your fault. Do better.

how about doin review on 6.5/300 wby mag

Notthing for notthing look at the 280 rem i reload for it its out standing .

What size pike are you catching with that line. I thought we were talkn about shark fishing for a minute there.

Congrats master idol,watching Edmonton Alberta Canada

What pound line do you use 80?

that was ROY W cart he used it in africia

Going ta Canada on Friday can’t wait😊

I am looking at picking up one of these rods for throwing whopper plopper 130 and 190 and spinnerbaits bucktails, I’ll take any input you could give on what model I should order

Nice fish

Congrats on your new PB!

MD is advertised as big lure reel but I wonder how it does with lighter 1/2-1.5oz lures? I like running #5 Aglias once in a while for pike and wonder if I should opt for this reel

How much 80lb can you fit on the 400? Any reason you didn't opt for 300?

I saw the rod in action this week and it did great!

Your evaluation approach and criteria are spot on. Especially picking bullet designs with very close sectional densities. Well done!

Also, I'm super curious as to what your barrel life is going to be at those velocities. You should do a video on that if your groups start to open up. The 28 isn't known for great barrel life. The heaviest pill I run is a 180VLD load at 2977 (partly because it is a super accurate node and why eat up more barrel?!)

BC/SD do nothing for accuracy if your barrel doesn't like the powder/primer/bullet combo (seating depth, neck tension, etc). If you've found a combo that the barrel loves harmonically then BC/SD become very helpful to accuracy downrange. Especially at longer distances since they perform better against wind and drag for longer periods of travel. And that is an essential component of terminal performance (depending on the bullet style selected). This is where a lot of hunters fail to do their homework. A great example of misunderstood terminal performance is the hunters who complain about lost weight retention in recovered bullets (if it failed they wouldn't have necessarily recovered the bullet). Another example is my PH's reaction to my bullet choice in South Africa last year. I brought an expandable (162gr. ELD-X) for my 28 Nosler. His reaction was "my tracker is going to be busy this week". 9 shots and 9 animals later, including a Blue Wildebeest at 320yds, Kudu, and an Nyala (mule deer sized animal) at 711yds, he had a different understanding of terminal performance. Different bullet designs do different things. I'd assume that hammer is a great bullet to put in a shoulder. It'll devastate bone. Expandables are little grenades and as such a shoulder shot is a bad idea. But slot it in behind or in front of the shoulder and what it does to the chest cavity renders swift results. That wildebeest was nearly 600lbs and went 20yds before piling up. So for me, shot placement is critical to allow a bullet to perform optimally and if BC gives me an advantage, I'm taking it. Thanks for the content!

BC’s and FPS are the only things that matter when making a comparison between these. When you say the 28 has to set the bullet deeper in the case it uses capacity which it does but it has the capability to spare. 7 prc sets the bullet farther outside the shoulder which it does but the 28 still has more capacity. I have both and the 7rem mag which will run with the prc. Neither will run with the 28.

Love 7x57 mauser wish it was more popular. You said something about you reload try imr4064 powder. Great rifle you have there only 1 thing wrong with it it's not Remington. Hahaha

I think about barrel life and recoil of both... I'd stick with the PRC with handloads!

I love my 280 AI. It surprises me every time I shoot it.

I don't know anything about reloading , so not sure this would even work. But , how about a 257-300 with a fast twist barrel and the high bc bullets? And / or with that set up. could you get reg. 257 performance with a shorter barrel?

I have a custom built 358 Norma on a M98 action. 26" barrel. My only problem is trying to find ammo.

Huge fan of the .280 AI. Love mine and with Reloader 26 and 160gr. CX it is amazing. But my next project is going to be a 6.5x55 AI (6.5 sweetheart) should be fun.

I have one of each both Bergara rifles. With factory ammo I got substantially less speed out of both than advertised. 7 PRC was 2864 and 28 Nosler was 2975. The PRC advertised 3,000 with a 175 ELDX and the 28 advertised 3125 with a 175 ABLR. Both fell considerably short. I literally just finished up load development for the PRC and will be taking it to the range in the next week or so. I'm getting ready to start for the 28 Nosler as well. I did acquire 8 lb of RL 33 for the 28, I cannot find RL26 anywhere. I loaded up Retumbo, 4831 SC and RL 22. Fingers crossed 🤞

How do the 2 compare at 400 to 500 yards on big game? I think the PRC catches up?

I have been loading the 25s since the 1970s . 250 Savage , 257 Rob 25-06 & 257wby . Bullet manufacturers have neglected this caliber & only recently produced high bc bullets . For years I shot the Sierra 117gr spbt or the Speer 120gr spbt ( bc of .480) which is the highest bc 25cal Bullet that reliably stabilizes in a 1in10 twist . My current 257wby load is 120gr Speer spbt & a full case of Retumbo with a federal 215 primer & Hornady cases . Bullet seated out as far as the magazine will allow & feed reliably . Muzzle velocities are 3340 to 3350fps & .7 inch groups at 100yds . Lighting of a rifle cartridge with very manageable recoil . For hunting medium game to 450 or 500yrds what more do you need ? For elk I'd use a 120gr Nosler partition or a Barnes 115gr tsx or the ttsx 100gr . Cheers and good shooting

how do people get "day" at the end of "Hornady"? -ady, not -day. Right? So wouldn't it obviously be horn-a-dee, not horn-a-day?

New to your channel, I enjoyed your video. I’m trying to learn all I can about the 280 AI I’m going to order a Weatherby Mark V Live Wild in 280 AI. Keep the 280 AI content coming.

So wich better for longe range hunting ? Wich hits harder at long range ?

Go ahead and buy a 28 nosler instead of cutting down 7 prc and i will continue to feed myself while on carnivore diet for free and you can buy a warehouse full of barrels trying to prove up the 28 and going hunggry. And if you seat a 7 prc into any powder you dont have accurate information or you need training in reloading before your and your followers get servely hurt. I rebarreled and old 7mm to prc at 27 inches 1 in 7 twist 2980 fps is most accurate at 2500 yards and down with 175s. Learn what you need to know not what verybody is not learning.

I own a Husqvarna 1651 with Custom stock in 358 Norma magnum. It is a really good and potent caliber. I have lots of moose and a lot of wild boar with it. It usually goes straight through so you won't find bullets. I shot a larger wild boar boar straight from the front at close range 60-70 meters. The bullet went under the neck and I found that bullet way back in the buttock of the boar that weighed around 350 pounds (170 kilos) The bullet looked good like out of a commercial nice good big mushroom high residual weight. I have used and hand loaded with the Woodleigh PP bullet. Now the bullets are almost gone here and I couldn't get hold of the same bullet again. I took Norma Oryx which is supposed to be softer. Need has no law when you can't find what you want. I am a magnum person owning several magnums and only one standard in 30-06. I currently have 30-06, 7mm Rem Mag, 300 Win Mag and 358 Norma mag. I am happy with all those calibers. We are only allowed a maximum of 6 hunting weapons here in Sweden. Which is a bit it is difficult to get a waiver on several weapons. I sold my Sako 75 Stainless in 338 win mag when I bought my 358 Norma magnum. Both calibers are good. I shot several boars with 338 win mag hand loaded with Hornady Interbond bullet. I was very satisfied with the effect and the Sako 75 stainless I think is one of the world's most beautiful weapons to look at. It is a big disadvantage that you are limited by the authorities here to first 4 weapons then a maximum of 6 weapons for hunting. I have a sporting license for a shotgun but then I'm not allowed to hunt at all with that weapon and shoot animals with it. So 6 weapons plus a sports license I have. I tried to get a sporting license for another shotgun but it didn't work. But if you are going to have and get a 358 norma magnum, I strongly recommend loading with the Woodleigh PP bullet if you can get hold of it? High residual weight fine moschrom good wound canals on the animals. I have not used the Swift A-Frame in my 358 but have used it in my 7mm rem mag. On normal game that is not dangerous game, I think it is too hard. Deer and wild boar as well as moose I have shot with 7 mm rem mag. I changed the swift A-Frame to the swift scirocco 2 in 150 grain. It was a good change. I also intend to test the Hornady Interbond 154 grain in that caliber.

I had both----I still have the 28 Nosler.
