Hiked in the Chiricahua national monument today. A moderate hike of about 5 miles with about 1000 feet of elevation gain. This place is spectacular. Hoodoo rock formations are relatively common throughout the mountain west but these are the best I’ve ever seen. Don’t pass on the opportunity to...
Bryan, welcome aboard. I have fired no more than a box of shells through a 303 Lee Enfield in my life. No help to you there. I am a big fan of Rl. 17 in several cartridges. I’ve no idea if it is a good choice for your application but I’m sure some one here will help. I do note you are writing...
I recall seeing a 10 gauge on the bulletin board up at Tucson Trap and Skeet. I won’t be up there until Friday, I’ll take a look. Don’t recall any thing about the listing, it just caught my eye.
Welcome to the forum.
Kind of amazing but Oregon never used salt until a few years ago. The major population centers, Portland down the willamette valley to Eugene don’t see much in the way of snow events or accumulation. A few years ago the city of Portland literally got shut down by a big one. I guess the rapid...
My prior truck was a 13, it was a good truck. Had a computer problem from sitting four months while I was in Alaska. Traded it for the one I have now. Not sure I shouldn’t have just paid for the new computer.
Since 1972 I’ve owned 7 ford trucks. Two were 350s the rest were either the old 100 or F150s. Always got well over 200 k on each one. My current truck is a 2021 with 120,000 miles on it. Hasn’t cost me a dime in anything other than rubber and maintenance. Three weeks ago, a week before Catherine...
It is very easy to neglect our field shooting skills in deference to load developement. You have the perfect opportunity to change that for yourself. Like you, I don’t care much for SSTs. While I completely understand the bullet design and would agree that when put between the slats, in the...
I shoot my #1 257 quite a lot, she doesn't like anything over 110s. Sending her off this spring to get turned into 257 ackly improved. My mom was shooting 120s out of her 257, Remington 722. She got the rifle in the late 50s when we were in Alaska. She killed Caribou in Alaska and deer and elk...
Well I only know one, a buddy picked one up five or so years ago. Damn thing is a death ray. I think he’s shooting 175 gr bullets leaving me to help pack elk he has shot on the other side of our canyon. I sat with him once on a 355 bull. 551 yards, steep up hill, no wind. At the shot the bull...
