    Elk Hunting Caliber

    All of this. Knew a lot of Utah hunters that used .270 Win. I did the math once, and if I recall, I think the average shot from the stories they told was between 80 and 120 yards. So this levels.

    44 Rem Mag Mid Range Loads

    I have made them with W296, which I understand is basically H110, and also with Blue Dot. I find that Blue Dot is a fair bit more difficult to measure, and seems to burn a bit dirtier. That said, I also find it works very well. Think I'm at +/- 15 gr of Blue Dot with 240gr cast. Don't recall...

    Lever weekend.

    I love levers and those look absolutely fantastic! A takedown 45-90? Where has this been all my life?

    Back from Cerakote

    That does look amazing. I expect you will have stories to tell about it and yotes before too much longer.

    Rock Chucks (Again!)...next week in the mountains

    Seeing those pics has led me to believe two things: 1) I need to handgun hunt more 2) I live in the wrong place That's good shooting, but an amazing vista. Good for you.

    Spending a hundred dollars

    That's great question. For me - hmmm... tough question, too. Don't really have a need for a stock, right now, so it's a tossup between powder and scope. Of the two, I think I'd settle on the scope. Powder would probably be the "smart" choice, since it is more likely to spike in price, but I...

    Switched to bigger cartridge

    I'm confused why this conversation isn't about the 35 Whelen ;) It is my opinion that what a person shoots best is what they should use - within reason. That said, my opinion doesn't really matter in this case. If she likes the 300WSM, then that's awesome. If not, I'm sure the both of you...

    Hunting Partner

    Guy, I think you've got this all wrong. The way I see it, the guy with the scoped rifle was the bait, and his job was to wander the tundra with a salmon in the seat of his pants to try and get the bear to chase him. This painting captured the moment just after he succeeds.

    What are the best states to live in for hunting and shooting sports?

    2024 Colt versus Springfield Mil-Spec Defender 1911's

    Well, my tongue in cheek answer is to buy one of each. Seriously, though, if you can go hands-on with both, I would look at fit and finish to see if there is a quality difference to keep up with the price. Personally, I am skeptical, but you may find the Colt is $300 better quality than the...

    When Black Bears Are Not Actively Hunted

    I have seen issues with state parks in some places (looking at you Virginia and Maryland), especially in places where the parks back up to national forest/ park lands. No hunting is allowed in the parks, there is plentiful garbage, and typically some good places to get away from people. So...
