    2022 Season Plans

    My hunting buddy and I drew early deer tags that start 8-15 and run through 9-30. We also drew cow tags for WY and muzzleloader moose tags in AK. We were able to get Sawtooth elk tags here in Idaho and I'll try to get a returned non-resident elk tag tomorrow morning. My wife and mom drew...

    Thinking up a wildcat

    A 6.5x55 BJAI necked up to 7mm would be a good one too. I think it has a bit more capacity then the 7x57 Imp due to the long neck on 7x57.

    Bear Hunting Poll ?

    Good luck. We have plenty of bears here.

    US Capitol Under Siege

    It wasn't the White House that the Jan 6th people got into it was the Capital Building. Trump offered the National Guard and Pelosi and Bowser refused to use them. The FBI dropped the ball as well and had people involved. How in the world the people are still detained to this day without having...

    What big game do you plan to hunt in 2022???

    I'm in for cow elk in WY and I'll apply for the same in UT. We drew moose tags in AK and the normal deer and elk tags here in ID with bear and wolf tags in my pocket in case we happen to run across one. I don't think I'll have time to bait bears this spring with my kids, since they are both in 2...

    Wyoming 90/10

    In reality the loss of revenue from the handful of tags cut for non-resident will pale compared to the loss of point revenue when they blow this up like this. 20 applicants at 100/each is about the same as the tag cost. If a tag that use to take 28 years to draw, and you take away the random...

    Wyoming 90/10

    That might have been how it use to be but states are responsible for all aspects of management and can set the rules as they wish now. The states still use the management aspects of the North American model of Conservation but the wildlife is the states property. The feds don't get involved...

    Wyoming 90/10

    The problem with that logic is that the state owns the wildlife in the state, weather it is on federal land or not. Your access to those federal lands cost the same but your access to the states wildlife cost you more. Even people that live in the west and hunt elsewhere pay exponentially more...

    Swarovski Warranty Service

    We went through that with a couple HD5 Zeiss scopes too. Talley lightweight rings aren't all that straight. They really need to be lapped in. The rings were bending the tubes and I'm sure that is why Swaro charged you.

    Testing the 147's in 6.5 x 284 ( Continued )

    Scotty, 3000fps is only 150fps faster then my dad shoots them, or about 100yds, and he has killed 4-5 cow elk with them. I'm going to rechamber my kids 6.5x47L to a 6.5PRC this year and run them as fast as I can in a 24" barrel. He was only shooting them 2725fps when he shot his bull at 200yds...

    Testing the 147's in 6.5 x 284 ( Continued )

    Looks like your top load on your targets has potential but if your getting ejector marks with virgin brass then I'd say that node will be beyond reach if you want any kind of brass life. If your not up to 100 rounds or more then your barrel will probably speed up a bit more and you'll have to...

    Tubbs Final Finish

    I would avoid anything stainless in your bore, steel wool, brushes, etc. It's too easy to scratch the bore.

    Testing the 147's in 6.5 x 284

    We both use Peterson's brass and it's a bit slower with the same load in Hornady brass. Hornady brass holds a bit more so it's slower with the same loads. I think the best loads in Hornady brass were closer to 47grs. We had the same problem many are experiencing with clickers in the 6.5PRC. The...

    Testing the 147's in 6.5 x 284

    My dad and I shoot 147's in our Creedmoor's. I shoot 46grs of R-26 and my dad shoots 45.5. Both are in the 2825-2850fps range and both are crazy accurate. My dad shot a group in the zeros at 200yds and probably 7-8 in the zeros at 100yds. I have shot numerous groups in the low .1's with mine...

    Rebarreling ? Need honesty

    Why wouldn't your gunsmith just put a thread gauge on the barrel threads to verify they are 16tpi like a Remington action is? No one wants to admit they are wrong but it happens to even the best of us so I wouldn't take his word for it. 1 1/16 x 16tpi is standard Remington threads. The OD of the...

    Canadians Have Had Enough

    It sounds like people need to voice their opinions to those that represent them and let them know they can be replaced if they ignore their populous.

    Canadians Have Had Enough

    What are the procedures for removing a PM? It sure seems like his actions warrant removal especially since he has made no attempt at concessions. Government officials work for the people not to control the people in a democratic society.
