First trip out to the range for myself this year. Temps were around 42F and there was about 10 inches of snow on the level across the field. I used my ATV to set up targets and gongs out to 650 yards. My cell phone worked as a hot spot to able my laptop computer to run the G7 ballistic program...
Hi Sask Boy, if I would have known today was going to turn out as nice as it did I would have gone out and at least got her on paper. Off work at 4 tomorrow if its anything like today I will make an attempt to get to the bench and get started.
Took the Z3 Swaro off my RUM and put on a new NF NXS 5.5-22x50 w MOAR reticle . I used the NF Direct Mount . Rifle now weighs in at 8.4 lbs on postal scale up from the 7.2 it was with the Swarovski scope. The weather is slowly starting to improve and forecast is showing it could be warm enough...
Back in 1976 I was a teenager my dad never hunted or shot but my sisters boyfriend who eventually became my bro-in law had a farm. I learned to shoot and trap out there. A poor day of muskrats brought me enough cash then (big money at the time) to walk in to the local hardware and lay down...
I'm not concerned about their performance it was just the first time I have seen this. These were not purchased as seconds.
Hopefully the weather will cooperate and I can get out and start shooting in early April.

That kinda pricing rubs me the wrong way. I like to support our local gunstore and usually pay a few bucks more for a pound of powder or a box of bullets but its nice to have a gun shop close by. On the other hand retailers know the internet has made the world a smaller place for consumers and I...
Guides should be tipped a minimum of 10% they do not receive much pay and their tips make up a bunch of their income. The tip should not be based on if you harvested an animal or not. Bear guides do a lot of work behind the scenes. Baits have to be checked and replenished daily a dirty and...
Nice, I am looking forward to hearing about your range reports. We are at least 6 weeks away from getting to the bench if mother nature is really kind to us here.
Last Friday evening the 9th of Jan. I was watching the TV. The phone rang and my wife answered.
She said "its for you". I picked up and the gent said Hi its Justin and we have you live on speaker phone here at the Wild Sheep Foundation convention in Reno. Your name has been drawn first and you...
