Congratulations on the new truck. I picked up a 2018 Ford F-150 XLT 4x4 on March 1st. Nice truck but has intermittent grinding in the front end. Dealer has changed some parts but the problem persists, but only intermittently.

Congratulations Guy and thanks for jumping to the challenge. The liberals that I know are so close minded that they will not listen to reason. Our sorry excuse for governor is leader of the pack with new feel good legislative proposals. Can't wait to get out of NY.
Good luck Guy, if you can find one in 35 with an open mind to listen to you your will have had a great day. Will be looking forward to hearing your debriefing.
Thank you for sharing your vast experiences fellas. Having only started elk hunting in 2013 I am only an old beginner searching for knowledge and youall have been very helpful. Most appreciated and thanks to each. Rol
How many elk hunters use a call post rut?
I am reading Elk Tactics by Don Laubach and Mark Henckel and they are pretty positive on the benefits of calling. My elk hunting is in Montana during the 3rd and 4th weeks of rifle season in November.
Just thinking it might be something to try one...
I purchased a new Leer 100R for my 2018 F150 and am quite disappointed in the fit. My 2013 F150 wore the same Leer cap and it fit reasonably well. Between 2013 and 2018 Ford has streamlined the truck bed by curving the outside edge in while leaving the inside dimension the same. Bottom line...
Think of the thousands of service men and women who sacraficed to insure our freedom and right to vote. Let's make their sacrafice worth while. I use an absentee ballot each year as I am far from the polling place hunting on Election Day.
I'm going to stick with my '06, I am thinking of switching from the Montana ASR, 10 pounds, back to the Remington 700CDL. The Remington will save me 1 1/2 pounds, and it was my first '06 and first elk and Mule Deer, one shot each in 2013. The Montana has served me very well, just a little...
Had one back in the day.. I believe my uncle bought it and we had a lot of fun plinking with it.
Must have been one of the very early versions as it lacked a serial number.
Water is an enemy of wood and steel. In the past I have used denatured alcohol to soften leather when I wanted a holster to form fit to a handgun. The idea came to me from a book long ago by either a Texas Ranger or Boder Patrolman. I have no experience stretching old leather however I would...
Best of luck with the new property.. sounds like it will have all the attributes of a beautiful place to spend time pursuing a variety of activities or just getting away from a crazy world.
Very nice Guy, I cheat on elk roasts, using a meat thermometer.
Pepper and olive oil on the outside, basting frequently to help keep
it juicy inside, and pull it out of the oven at 140 degrees. The I let it
rest for a few minutes before slicing.
What wine did you pair with the beautiful meal?
Until this year my elk and deer antlers have been European mounts or just cut off the skull. This years 4X4 Mulie, even though just better than average per my guide, will be a shoulder mount that I can gaze upon in my olde age, remembering the day....:-). I have a black bear rug from my bear...
Sorry I have no personal experience with your rifle or load.
In your situation I would start with a call to Barnes and Hogdon respective customer service lines to see if they can offer suggestions.. Good Luck, Rol

I carry cotton balls saturated with Vaseline, water proof matches and the steel striker as primary tools. Back up is a pint size plastic jar containing a small roll of shop towel soaked with 99% isopropyl alcohol. Excellent firestarter and doubles for sanitary use.
