Man, you know, I never thought of that. I will add that to my list of things to do before my next outing. Shoot, I wouldn't want to lose a deer because of a handload that wouldn't chamber, but the idea of facing fangs and claws makes it worse.

Man, those are great! Guy had better keep his photography game sharp! You're both way better than I.

That is so cool! I would love to be able to see something like that.

My understanding is that both CWD and C-J disease are at least thought to be caused by prions, which are a type of misfolded proteins. If that is the case, then I see no reason why it would not be transmissible from deer to human, in much the same way as it is thought that prions can be...

Thanks for the article, I was surprised to read that the electric vehicle market impacted it.

Thanks for the update. As this is apparently an upstream supply problem, I concur that it will impact all manufacturers. I also doubt that there will be an expansion of supply to meet demand.

Don't know if you hunt Utah, what your circumstance is, or your physical condition is, but - There are, or at least were OTC bison hunts in Utah int he Nine Mile Unit.

I thought is was Nike "Just do it!" :unsure:

Well done! always happy to see when you post on this topic.

They certainly look like trophies! Not sure about the wall mount, though...:unsure:

Dang it! Now I've got another rifle to buy.

Great setup, great accuracy. Can't really ask for more, except maybe something to use it on.

I'd take a pic of my reloading area, but I fear someone would call OSHA.

Just once for rifle; Hornady Superformance in 35 Whelen. Out of my Rem 700 with a 22 inch tube, it read 2900; average of 3 shots. I learned two lessons that day: 1 - that rifle can pinch nerves in my shoulder bad enough to make my fingers go numb. 2 - my rifle seems to shoot "fast" for some...

Not just the stock. I repainted the receiver, scope rings, and a few other bits of a rifle for my sister in law using caliper paint I got from an auto parts store. Comes in lots of colors and is heat tolerant to way more than you will get from shooting (I hope). She liked blue, so she got blue.

All good info, but remember that every rifle is just a bit different. And each environment is different (temp, humidity, altitude). If you can, shoot your personal load - hand load , or just whatever factory load you use - over a chronograph to see what it will do. Besides, it's a good excuse...

Thank you all.

It certainly does. Love Kenetrek, but I almost think I could hire someone to carry me around for the cost of a pair :LOL: . I've run the extreme budget route before, and I know you end up sore, cold, wet, and tired. Another thing I want to get is a quality backpack-style dry bag. Anyone...

If a firm hold seems to help, try a sled, if you have one. Even a couple of sandbags might work. I was having issues with one rifle and ended up putting it in a (Bog, I want to say) deathgrip tripod. That seemed to work very well for me. Also proved I needed more dry fire practice.

Love 22. Fond memories of exploding soda (pop, if you prefer) cans. No I keep one handy at the house for cleaning up duties, loaded with ear safe subsonics. *ahem* By that, I mean vermin. Like snakes, or armadillos. Or squirrels, if they're in season.
