I had the idea for this project for a while, and today had some free time after finishing RL338s shell pouch. Took some measurements, sketched up a pattern, grabbed some leather and went to work. I'll be honest I thought it was a miss at first because it was supposed to hold 4 boxes of 20ga...
Opening day, after my daughter was tagged out it was my turn. Hoping to get one with my 41mag, i was walking the creek bottom and brush edges. Spoiler I did not, but I was able to get snap these pictures. Can you see whats hidden
Went to do a little glassing first thing this morning, general rifle for elk and deer opens next weekend. Well on my way home i was not surprised to see these guys found their way to the private land, then just after that i ran into this traffic jam
Just got this stitched up this morning, fun little project. Maybe a little on the wide side, shown with a box of 3", will fit a box 3-1/2" about perfect. Will make some slight adjustments, move the belt loops in a touch, dont know that i need the card holder on the front. Probably come up with...
I've started looking at the 25 creed, looking at some published load data it only seems to lag behind the 2506 by 100fps give or take, so Im curious who's using one and is this reality pushing a 120gr over 3000fps?
If this is the case I may seriously think about putting one together on a M70...
So I'm sitting here trying to decide what mid weight bullet to work up in my 260rem. The choices I have are 121gr Etip, 125gr Partition, 129gr ABLR, or 130gr AB. Would likely be used for deer or wolf sized game, I'm mostly leaning toward the 121s or 125s. Im saving my heavier 140& 143s for the...
So this is my first go at digiscoping but I picked up the Swaro ATC 17-40x56 this spring for backpacking and then the other week got the ollin snapshot for it. We took a road trip over Beartooth pass and thru Yellowstone, amazing drive first of all. Got the opportunity to try the scopewith the...
Just picked this leather machine up at a good price, should speed up some of my leather projects. Now i just have to make some dedicated room in the shop, and maybe even get the other leather supplies out of the gun room, it started taking over when i got back from Calgary.
Took the dog for a walk, thought I'd look for some sheds and see if there were any spring bears yet. No sheds but came across a few tracks, wrong type of bear. Sure was nice to get out
Trying to stick to my "not buying a gun this year" but, the local gun classifieds has a Ruger Hawkeye 30-06 in a Hogue stock for sale for $500 with a box of ammo and a new in box unmounted Vortex diamondback 3-9x40. Now I am not looking for a 30-06 but I have been, and with recent talk on the...
The wife and I got out for a nice Sunday drive today, it was a 200mi loop, I wanted to check out the Madison Valley which is a big winter range around here and see how some the big game animals handled the winter. We were able to see some antelope was hoping to see a few more bucks, whitetail...
Specificly for hunting, What do you have? What do you like, what have you learned? What do you ultimately use?
I think this evolves with everyone and depends on hunting style, location, and game, I know it has for me.
I will start by where and what I hunt, most all of my hunting is in Montana...

Has anyone hunted Hawaii? The family have been talking about going to Hawaii for vacation for years and we naver have made it. Anyway with the youngest graduating this year its probably time we quit talking and actually do it. Kinda leaning towards Maui and while looking at things to do I...

I know I have been getting that itch, and starting to see the emails about "application season", wanting to plan what to hunt this year and where.
I will stay in state, Montana, for special permits I will apply for Moose, Mountian Goat, and Bighorn Sheep...Dream and not hold my breath but, like...
