    Summer Scouting

    I hunt deer here in Colorado and I have hunted a lot in 4th season. Last year it opened the day before Thanksgiving. The last 3 or 4 years the seasons after first season have gotten later as P & W has been setting aside more days between seasons. There arn't a lot of tags available for the unit...

    How many hunting packs ???

    I have a small day pack that I sometimes use. I also have my old Kelty pack that I took the pack off and use the frame to pack meat. Most of what I carry goes in my hunting vest with lots of pickets.

    Summer Scouting

    As soon as this wind quits (supposed to be windy a couple of more days), I plan on starting my summer scouting sessions. None to soon for sure. Plan is to go at least once or twice a month.

    Wind blowing about 20 with gust to 30 (according to my weather station)! Forecast is wind thru Wednesday, so will probably be Thursday before I can get back to the range. Weather Gods are against me for sure...LOL!

    The other thing I need to do is lighten the trigger. It is pretty heavy for me and my likes. Don't have any experience with the Ruger #1, but like JimP suggested, I have joined the Ruger #1 Forum and getting info there .

    My old loads would not chamber in the new Ruger, it has a tighter chamber. I pulled all the bullets, full length sized the brass (so it would chamber in the Ruger) and used the same powder charge. I have the brass I shot today and I'll just neck size it when I load it again.

    Just got back from the range and it looks like the loads for my old .300 Wby arn't going to make it. My Ruger #1 doesn't really shoot these loads as good as I want it to. Guess I'll pull the bullets and use the same powder & bullets and start some different weights of the powder. The target...

    Wind has been nonstop for about 3 weeks. I usually am not bothered by allergies, but the pollen and dust have been raising hell with my nose, throat and eyes.

    It's pretty dry down here, but the wind starts between 9 & 10 almost every day. I need to sight in at 50 years then got to 200 yards to get the new turret from Leupold zero'd in.

    Primers

    There were some primers at our club's gun show 2 weeks ago, pricey too. I did score on 2 thousand small pistol primers, traded for 2 thousand large pistol primers I had that I didn't need anymore. There seemed to be a lot of powder, but not too many bullets.
