    RCBS X Die

    I have not tried the x die. I have returned three sets of dies; 257 roberts, 7x57 Mauser and 300 HH to RCBS and replaced them with Reddington. I could not get the shoulders to stabilize with the RCBS but I can with Reddinton. My 7x57 aka 257 Rigby was the worst. I would check the shoulder...

    That must have been so tough to loose your mother at 17 or there about. You have my sincere sympathy.

    More Cancer update

    Today was to be surgery. Unfortunately the tests on Tuesday revealed the cancer has spread from the rectum to the prostate, kidneys, liver Lymp system and lungs. The over under is 6 to 9 months with no treatment, twice that if they can find a treatment that he can handle. Apparently there is not...

    Excellent review. If I was still guiding in Alaska I would load that Hot Core for sure.

    More Cancer update

    Son in Law and daughter just returned from Boise. SIL needed more imaging to determine the extent of the cancer. The radiologist report essentially says surgery is the only chance he’s got. Essentially the docs will “gut him like a fish” hope to get enough of the cancer to prolong “salvage” his...

    2025 Hunting Season

    About 1980 I was hunting with my dad, second photo if you look over the tall tree you see a flat. I was working my way up one of those fingers below the flat to meet up with Dad. Near the top a bull came up out of some brush below me and gave me a cross canyon shot. There was snow, I hit him...

    2025 Hunting Season

    Big big fan of the high shoulder shot. Thirty yard dead from a heart shot sprint can get you 1000 feet down the hill. Anchor them where they stand if you can. Flat ground, when I find some, I’ll shoot them in the crease.

    "Slipping in" when deer are bedded/late morning or afternoon.

    Well I just finished season 58. I’m still not convinced the pre-dawn insertion works better than starting in at legal shooting light. With white tails I think it is the best ploy, even with mountain whitetails like we were chasing in Montana last week. Mule deer and Columbia blacktail or Sitka...

    Jet Sled

    Buddy of mine swears by it. He always has it in the truck when I hunt with him in Montana. We’ve yet to go all the way to the kill site on an elk or a deer with it but after packing the first load out he goes back in with the sled when we’ve had access to a closed road or wider hiking/horse...
