    We have had quite the temperature variance over the last couple of months. Yesterday it was minus 32C with a 30K wind and now today the temp right now is minus 2C but the wind has picked and we are getting some freezing rain. I have 3 rifles that I would like to do some range work with but just...

    7mm-08 and the new 150 AccuBond

    Scotty, I guess that might be the wrong term as they fragmented the first time it was a left front shoulder on a average whitetail buck the entire shoulder was destroyed and the bullet did not enter the body cavity. The second one just behind the shoulder hit a rib and then fragmented into the...

    7mm-08 and the new 150 AccuBond

    I have been using the 150gr. ABLRs for some time now in my 280AI and I have personally not had any problems. However my nephew has quit the 168gr. ABLRs in his 7mm mag because he has had some problems with them exploding:oops:. I was the one that worked on that load and I am not sure what the...

    RADD- Rifle Addiction Deficit Disorder

    Well I started to get a grip on this disease and actually placed 2 rifles and a number of different components up for sale. I had a number of so called sales but each one fell through. When I asked it to go COD the buyer backed out and the other deals seemed good until I accepted their offers...

    Did ya ever....?

    I haven't done that yet :shock:. Mine is always ammo, I do up a load and then decide to take out a couple of other rifles as well, when I get to the range I set up my rifles and ammo in order that I want to shoot only to find that I have the rifles and forget the second milk crate with the ammo...

    Rising Number of Bear Attacks?

    During the course of 50 some years hunting in Northern Saskatchewan I have had a number of encounters with Black Bears it seems in the cases I was involved with that the Bear minded his own business as did I :wink:. Now hunting with Mike, Gil & Gerhard in north eastern BC I was shown some...

    That’s a wrap.

    Sorry to hear of your loss, it is never easy losing a close friend they never ask for much but give unconditional love. I often wish more people acted like our K-nine family. I pray that your retirement is long, healthy and full of adventure on your terms (y)!! Blessings, Dan

    Not Feeling It

    I know exactly the feeling, I enjoy getting out but my physical limitations are starting to really get me down. But I did have a good run after my open heart surgery with being able to hunt with 2 of my favourite human beings :wink:. I had the privilege of hunting with Dr. Mike & Gerhard in the...
