Any one have any reccomendations on radios for hunting. My dad and I are looking into getting some for next season. They will mostly be used in the mountains elk hunting but we will never be more than a mile or two away from each other. I have looked into some Midland and Motorola models but...

My dad and I recently tried making some snack stick sausage with our grinder and smoker. The first time we ground the cheese with the meat and then put it through again to stuff the casings. This was a gooey mess. The second time we cut the cheese into little chunks and only mixed this in...

What do you guys do with the meat on top of the ribs that has a really sticky slimy film on it? We cut a bunch of this off of my elk while gutless quartering it and had a heck of a time doing anything with it. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Jeremy

My dad and I are looking into getting a lead sled to help sight in our hunting rifles. Cabelas will have the lead sled solo on sale for $50 this week. Is there that much of a difference between the lead sled solo and the lead sled plus to justify getting the plus at $130 over the solo at $50...

So, i have been working up a load for my 30/06 for elk using 180gr partitions. I have them grouping well right now at just below 2600 fps according to the loading data. However, I noticed that most factory ammo with this bulket and weight is at 2700 fps. Will this be a problem? Should I work...

Hey guys, bought my first ar 15 recently and I am looking for a cheaper ($100ish) red dot sight. I know you get what you pay for with optics, but i really just want it for plinking so I do not want to pony up for an eo tech. Any suggestions? I am looking at the Primary arms reflex sight and...

Hello again guys. Time for the reloading newbie to beg for more help. Anyways, I have been trying to reload 300 win mag now. When I try to seat the bullet, I am getting ALOT of resistance, and it feels like the bullet is getting stuck in there. This only happens with 180 grain bullets. I...

Hey, i have a couple of rifle reloading questions. I recently reloaded a batch of 30-06 cartridges. I have reloaded this caliber and bullet combo before with no problems before. However, this time some of the cartridges would not chamber. If I tried to chamber them, took them out then...

Ok, So I have been reloading since this fall. I recently had a batch of .45 acp that I might have screwed up on one cartridge, so I decided to do the safe thing and tear them all apart and redo the whole operation. I bought a hammer style bullet puller to pull the bullets and reclaim all the...

I am looking to get myself a bullet puller. Any opinions on what type to get? I reload mostly 45 acp , 38 sp, and 30-06. Thanks for the help, Jeremy

Hello, I am looking into getting a gun for hunting antelope. I currently use a 30/06 for elk and deer. I was thinking of just reloading using some 150 grain 30/06 loads but then I would have to adjust my scope again for elk and deer with my normal 180s. I also hunt for meat so I am a little...

Hello, I am looking at using my Christmas money to buy new binoculars. It was very clear this year that the ones I was using are just not going to cut it for elk hunting. I do not have the money for top of the line ones, but I was looking at spending around $500. I am looking at the Nikon...

I noticed that there are leftover Unit 10 cow tags. The season runs long and I was wondering if anyone else had ever hunted there late. Just curious as to how bad the roads/snow usually are and if it would be worth the time and money to get a cow tag. Any advice? I know there is the Strouss...

Anyone every hunted area 79 for deer? I have some seen up in that area but not any large bucks. Any info would be appreciated. Not looking for trophies, but a nice buck would be great. I mostly scouted that area for elk and trout!

Hello, I just moved to Wyoming (Rawlins area) last summer and am looking forward to Elk hunting this fall. I do not have much experience elk hunting but I am trying to learn. I will be using a General Tag and was looking for any help, tips, pointers, anything for some general units close to...
