    AK Kills Bears & Wolves to Save Caribou

    I googled "Colorado CP&W Killing Bears and Lions" and came up with a couple of pages of newspaper articles. These included lawsuits brought to stop it by a number of different organizations. I got tired of looking at all of them and never did see anything if they actually started it or if it...

    AK Kills Bears & Wolves to Save Caribou

    Have you ever heard about any feedback from Colorado's CP&W about the project that they were doing north of Rifle in units 32 and 33 I believe where they were trying to decrease the bear and mountain lion populations? This started a few years ago and I have not heard a thing about it since.

    Moose Ribs/open fire

    I edited the pictures to full size for you. Other than that I gained 5 lbs just looking at those ribs.

    Moose Ribs/open fire

    Instead of the ribs how about one of the tenderloins depending on how many is in your crew. Just searing them on a fold-able grate and some seasoning would be enough for a meal fit for a king. I agree with CC on the pressure cooker for the ribs, or a nice BBQ sauce and boil them into...

    Scoped handgun?

    The factory rings are pretty good. I'd try the tape trick or a something that would add just a bit of extra friction between the rings and scope.

    Scoped handgun?

    Did you lap the rings before you mounted the scope? I've heard of people using a piece of tape between the scope and rings to provide some friction when tightened down. I have a scope on my 7-30 Waters on my TC Contender and never had any problems. I have sheared off a couple of base...

    How do you know that's a positive post? Perhaps it identifies as a negative post or just likes to dress up as a positive post.

    I agree, can you just imagine hooking up both safety chains on the same point of the tow vehicle.

    GOAT KNIVES TI

    Looking at the picture it is just a type of multi tool. And not a very useful one if the only tools or bits are those that are shown.

    Since most vehicles fill their tanks on the left side of the vehicle I'll do that quite often instead of waiting for a pump to come available for my diesel truck. There will be at least one or two trucks waiting to fill on the left hand side where I can pull into the pumps, stretch the hose...

    SW Colorado early summer weather

    We've been getting a good rain every day for the last few days, my lawn is loving it. The town went to a tier billing system for our water starting this year and I'm trying to keep my water bill under $500 so most of my lawn is a shade just above dead.

    Wolves

    And they are branching out a little bit further, but they did decided to move away from the Wyoming boarder in a couple of areas. This map shows the drainage's that they have received the GPS signals from. Sad that it looks like they got some readings just to the south of where I live and...

    Range Finder

    I have a Vortex that was given to me that's worked fairly well. One thing on the Leopold's is their warranty isn't as good on their electronics as it is on their optics.

    Blackstone - Who uses a griddle?

    The one that I have has had so many onions, mushrooms, and bacon cooked on it that there is a permeate onion/bacon flavoring on it without having to add any of those items. On camp outs on the desert that I used to go on myself and a friend were the designated bacon cookers. Between our two...

    Homemade Rifle Vice

    I have always looked at the factory one but could never pull the trigger for what they cost and the few times that I would use it. That's when I started thinking about using the Workmate that I can use for dozen of other things when it doesn't have a rifle locked into it. I had used one...

    Homemade Rifle Vice

    I've been thinking of picking up a rifle vice to hold my rifles steady while I am doing something with them. Like a number of us I like working on my rifles and installing the scopes and or other sights but have fought with trying to hold them steady in a number of contraptions that I would...
