    Remington 770 beater rifles

    The cheap scope has short eye relief. And I usually hold the rifle very loosely at the range. Big mistake with the 270 on the first shot. After zeroed though it shoots just over an inch with cheap federal power shok. And probably not my best shooting after that first shot.

    Remington 770 beater rifles

    Strange it's taking so long on the background check. My kids bought last wednesday and picked up on saturday after the background cleared.

    Remington 770 beater rifles

    I stopped at 2 other stores yesterday within a 100 miles but neither of them even had the same model rifles in stock. Maybe just clearing them out locally

    Remington 770 beater rifles

    #1 I know these are really cheap entry level rifles. But just had to shout out my kids just bought 2 on clearance at wal mart with cheap scopes on them for $54 dollars each. One in 270 and the other 308. Regular price is $260 Not sure if this is all stores but figured I'd share.

    Colorado Grizzly Creek Fire

    Last I looked the fire was about a mile or so from where i typically do most of my deer hunting. I was caught on the other side when it started as I was up by deep lake with my kids and grandson. Made it home over cottonwood pass before they closed that down.

    What would be your dream hunt?

    I can't say as I really have a dream hunt anymore. I just do things as they pop into my head and if I can save the money. I've hunted many states and canada for many different animals. I'm booked on a cheap african hunt for April if things clear up. And put a small deposit on free range red...

    Tonneau Cover - Help me choose!

    I used an undercover cover for the last 15 years. Still looks nearly new with no complaints. That said I just bought a used topper for 300 bucks that I'm far happier with. Lots more space and easier to use.

    Please critique my caribou gear list

    Make sure your pilot allows butane stoves, some don't. Technically some law about it. I used a msr dragonfly with white gas. And in a twist our pilot had never seen before we took 3 bundles of firewood. Don't have to worry about bringing it back and really made a difference having a fire...

    Please critique my caribou gear list

    Solid list. I've been 3 times. Took the 10mm once but didn't bother after that. Used a cot first trip. Again didn't bother after that. But does make a difference if things get really wet. Keeps you off the ground. I might have missed it but I take a collapsible 2 5 gallon water jug...
