The yellow headed blackbirds showed up this week in my part of the world. Love to watch spring come back!

I used to sleep at the bottom of the stairs so my dad couldn’t leave without me- I hope the pigs came in!

A good company to order from and my favorite powder in a couple loads for 2 different 7mm-08 rifles

Is the headstamp in the photo for size reference or is it a ring-what am I looking at there?

My intent was to go see some new country in Namibia. Shoot the Namibian specialties and a couple days of bird hunting then visit etosha before I came home. When my wife realized I was serious and had the down payment in hand, she insisted she go again and could we please go back to the place...

one of the beauties of South Africa is the common practice of renting a rifle from your ph. So if your stuff gets lost you just rent the camp rifle and carry on- I’ve given ammo to other hunters on the mountain (public land, general hunting season) before that lost or forgot or used up all...

I just now realized I never told this story. The four involved all tell it differently so I will summarize what I think happened. It’s a long hike in and they had to cross some shale slides and one snow covered hillside. She was scared and nervous guts and the boys wanted to push on too fast...

3130 fps but I would love to go check that with my new Garmin chronograph. Sadly cold rain today. . . The rifle is a savage with a long, heavy barrel. My loads are built for accuracy first and velocity second

Weather was sunny and 60 degrees today so I ran out to the range. Holiday so all the butt heads were there being A holes on a public range. BUT the little garmin was awesome! Small, and sooo simple and I believe very accurate. Just ran down range, set up the targets and face the garmin the...

I don’t have gamechangers but I do run the 65 grain gameking out of my 223. My best powder with that particular bullet was H335 with cfe 223 a much slower second in accuracy. Maybe you can get your Hands on some and give that a try. Sorry that isn’t exactly what you were after

Lots of variables to consider, the least of which would be which bullet you plan to shoot. I have a 28 nosler but I prefer my .300 wm for elk and would encourage you to consider 400 yards a much smarter distance not to cross. You are going to get a different answer from everyone you ask though

Got a couple of things back from one taxidermist-was helping another with my waterbuck yesterday. I’ll post a pic when he is dry and finish work completed.

After some deliberation I have booked my next trip to South Africa. The Ph I went with in 2022 offered a hunt for buffalo, kudu and impala, all expenses included for $10k. He let interested parties book now on into 2025 so I wired my deposit of $1000 to secure july21-29 in 2025. While there...

I work on an ambulance and transport the sickest of the sick. I’ve gotten all the vaccinations without complaint. I also take precautions as best we know how. We are seeing an uptick in all sickness after all the big group holidays. My family all got it for the first time in early November...

Cougar in utah used to be a difficult tag to draw. Then in mid stream they opened it up to everyone-general open season. They are about as protected as coyotes and jackrabbit now. So much for carefully managing populations for the benefit of the species! The rumor is that a legislator that...

WOW!

Please clarify, this has a 3” chamber, Not a 3.5?

Mine arrived from the midwayusa backorder files yesterday. It is 29f today so I won’t get to use it (no reason to when it’s too cold for load work up) for a couple months but it was fun to get the pkg just the same

Use you .300 wm, go to Africa!

I don’t own any zombie guns so may need a fourth in AR platform sometime in the future. . .
