That was selective hearing loss to the frequency of your wife's and children's voices. As for me I didn't start wearing hearing protection until I started shooting large bore pistols. I found that a .357 magnum was worse than a .44 magnum as far as shooting without protection. But back then...

It's sad but this is what we are going to have to live with being hunters and having to deal with either the non hunting public that wants to get pictures or those who want to keep us from shooting a animal or bird. A number of years ago I was on a bison hunt in Utah and we had located a herd...

The Flat Tops got a good dump of snow last night and perhaps they are getting some more tonight. There is a good storm north of I-70 between Grand Junction and Glenwood Springs. I saw a picture going north of Rifle and the highway was a white line. The area south of me in unit 444 got a...

This weather can be a hunters dream, but if you aren't ready for it it could also be a nightmare .

If you are getting packed up and getting ready to head to the high country of Colorado be prepared for wet and sloppy conditions. The snows and rain last week did a good number above 7000-8,000 feet so be warned.

That was technically what I meant. And before someone else mentions it, yes you can fire the original round in the AI chamber to fire form the cartridge or if that is all you can find. I'm just used to shooting the semi wildcats and wildcat rounds that I have where you have to resize the...

I believe that he was arrested and then bailed out.

A lot of people don't want to go to the bother of forming cases and loading them to get the improvements that a Ackley affords. And in some cases the improved version doesn't improve the existing one that much. They want to be able to walk into a store that has stocked shelves and pick up what...

You have to figure that at the time of his hunting adventures that most of the meat would spoil one way or another without refrigeration. That and I would wager that most of his hunting was done in the late summer/early fall except for when he would go out in the spring of the year for bears...

Bullet expansion and how far it penetrates has been a strange subject for years. A number of years ago I was shooting 150 grain Seirra Game Kings out of a 7mm Rem mag at roughly 3200 fps. I had a cow elk broadside at 20 yards. I hit her through the ribs and lungs, the bullet came to rest on...

Pick a OTC unit and go for it. They all will be crowded and know that the deer hunt will also be going on. As to where to hunt one of those units, just follow the orange.

He's chasing elk with it right now, I haven't heard anything on how he is doing yet.

I've seen a few Brownings but no Winchesters either. But I have seen quite a bit of ammo for it sitting on shelves gathering dust since not that many have a rifle for it yet. I have a friend in Utah who picked one up along with all the ammo that he needs for a while since he isn't a reloader.

The thing that makes the 6.8 Western is the rate of twist of the rifling enabling it to stabilize those longer bullets which will have a higher BC for better accuracy at longer ranges.
