Dan, I did the same thing with my buddies son a couple years ago. I wanted the pinecones picked up in my backyard so it wouldn’t chew the mower blade up after hitting several of them. I offered him five cents per pinecone. My grandfather used to pay me one cent for every Thistle. I cut out in...
I used a .338 on my one and only Moose 20 some years ago. I packed that rifle elk hunting but like you I felt it was heavier than I needed to carry so down the road it went. I’d like to think the .35 Whelen is about as good as it gets for packing a punch and not being too heavy to carry all...
Well, after doing some photo comparison on Warne’s website I’m convinced they are for a CZ 550. I swear when I looked at the website the other day I wasn’t able to find them so that’s why I asked. I’ll stick to my story and blame the internet.
Guys, I have a set of Warne detachable rings that were given to me in a box of stuff. I can’t figure out what they would work with. They are set up to go on what appears to be a factory dovetail but one of them has a block on the off side away from the takedown lever. Anyone have a clue...
I haven’t purchased anything from them but have looked at their test results before. I think they do a good job with comparisons and makes me feel more confident in choices. But for those that are interested I can tell you from first hand experience the 147 HST in 9mm and 180 HST in .40 are...
Wild animals are still wild animals no matter how acclimated they become to people. Instincts still exist and as they become old or injured they become unpredictable around humans. Tragic for sure and who knows how fast the young man fell to his injuries. As my state pushes more and more...
I really like the Accubond and it’s become my go to bullet for several cartridges. If memory serves me correct, I’ve only recovered one from all the animals I’ve shot. It was a 160 grain out of my 7x57 on the Gemsbok shown in my little picture with my username. They’re a great bullet and...
I Stumbled across one of his videos by accident. In the video I watched he was very clear it wasn’t hunting it was culling. I also watched him go back to every animal and make sure they were dead. While it may not be for everyone I can understand how invasive species, whether introduced...
That’s a bummer. That’s a gun I’ve been eyeing ever since it came out, just haven't pulled the trigger yet. (Pun intended). Over the years several friends have had some Hi-powers with some minor customizing done. Always liked how they felt in the hand.
I have had my 8400 Classic in .300 WSM for many years now. I can’t remember when but it could have been in the first three years of production. It pretty much shoots anything I’ve ever put through it. I started with a 200 grain Accubond because I couldn’t find any 180’s when I first got...
I picked up an Elk tag for Northern Idaho in 2024. I will also head over there for a spring bear hunt so I’ll have to take the .348 along with me now ;)
