    Rifle Cost/Worth

    I don't regret the amounts I have spent on my two custom rifles but they were very expensive. If I would have know then what I know today I would have invested in a couple top end factory rifles and took a couple of more hunting trips :wink:. I have trouble selling my rifles as they carry many...

    Bear Season!

    Good luck to all that are going to be bear hunting this fall. Here in Saskatchewan fall bear taste much better than spring bear as in the fall they have eaten berries and then gorge themselves on Oates. I may pick up a Bear tag with my Elk tag as more than once we have seen them in the oat...
