    Ethics Question

    That's a tough hunt if they aren't coming to the calls. Hunting in the muskeg is not your regular spot and stock situation by any means. Oct 1 till the 15 is ussually prime time for moose rut in this area ( Alberta). It may be similar in NFLD give or take a week , if you decide to head back try...

    Last Few Days

    Bad timing of the rut and the Super moon this fall. Bugling here has been slow aswell. We setup decoys Sat morning at 5 am , really didn't need flashlights with that moon. I imagine elk and moose would be running hard allnight with it being bright out. Geese were trying not to co operate...

    Ethics Question

    Sorry to hear about your dilemma , sucks after travelling that far. The guys I hunt with we have a rule and it pertains if all involved have a tag for said game in their pocket. EG. Moose , if my buddy and I both have tags the rule is whomever spots an animal gets dibs , if they decide to pass...

    And So It Begins...

    Look like a good time was had by all, and nobody ruined a perfectly good moose hunt by shooting a moose. ( my Granpa always would use this remark). Harvest is in full swing here and I missed meeting up with Dan on his trip home . But I did get a real good first hand account on the phone with...

    Over pressure with factory ammo

    Well it looks like you have a canadite for an AI or a different cal. Take it to a reputable smith have him true the action , hone the bolt lugs, and recut the chamber to 260AI, -7-08 , 308. Or something along those lines. If you go the AI route he will have set the barrel back after reaming the...

    Over pressure with factory ammo

    I may be late to the race here once again , but I'd suggest running a couple of your hand loads and 1 factory round over a chrony. It may be a tight chambered ,tight throat , causing pre mature pressure rises but if intended velocity is there you still have something to work with. I ran into...

    First Elk

    Good of you to lend him a decent rifle .. Hunt he will always remember . And sausage is all right , but I'd ask for a couple calf elk steaks myself. Mmmm tender vittles hanging there.

    6mm Remington

    Definitely could be a contributing factor alright. That ol pump gun I have has taken its fair share of deer , and is used alot as a loaner . I make sure I use decent brass( Remmy) and the small base die , and a moderate load of IMR 4350/ 100 gr PT . It's been very reliable since , I also keep...

    Seen two nice bucks this morning.

    JT nice to see you posting again. Still moving a bit of oil with the trucks I see, this slowdown has been tough on a lot of guys. Nice bachelor group of bucks, only prob is finding them when the rut starts.

    6mm Remington

    That's asking alot out of a pump gun, I'd be more worried about reliability and accuracy then speed. Once again with the mono metal bullets they are long for weight and caliber, the E-tip doesn't use relief grooves like the tsx so in load work up you must be aware of this. Depending on your...
