I was looking in the Wyoming regs on OHVs for their rules concerning cased/secured guns or bows like Colorado has. I don't remember that I had to have my rifle in a zippered or hard case and completely unloaded the last time I hunted in Wyoming. Nothing in the new regs that I could find. Anybody...

I got a laugh out of this!

My best bucks all come from California. Check out "My Profile" and the album "High Sierra Deer". Best is a 178 non typical which I shot in 1963 and is not with the others. I'll have to dig into my old pictures for it. This is a 5x5 buck (probably in the high 160's, never measured it) taken in...

Just saw a press release that Yeti has cut all ties with the NRA. I don't own any, but sure as hell won't buy anything with the Yeti label on it now. Too many other products out there that do a great job for a lot less money!

I was wondering how much practice and or shooting everyone does. I am a firm believer in practice, dry firing and popping primers! I shoot competitively a couple of time a month (Cowboy Action), usually shoot trap once a month and shoot twice a week (Nov thru March) in a Bulls Eye Pistol...

Primers look fine to me. How does the .308 group with the hotter load? I would shoot the hottest load that groups the best and does not show signs of excessive pressure. Looks like your going to have to find what the .270 likes. I have found that sometimes even 1/2 grain above or below will...

Next weekend our rifle/pistol club is having their annual Gun Show. I am sharing a table with my son. I want a new concealed carry gun, so I'm selling my old one. Also have a couple of shotguns, a derringer and some misc. stuff. My son is getting rid of a couple of Browning Superposed O/Us, M1A1...

I really have more than just a bench. I built a 15 x 30 room on the back of the Garage. I do all my reloading, gun cleaning and minor gun repair there. I also have a big wardrobe to store all my hunting clothes in and an office desk. My wife also has a potting bench and keeps her gardening...

Well, almost a month later than my OP, it's snowing like hell! Got up about 5:30am and let my Lab out and it was spitting a little snow. Now it's 10:00 and it has nor quit. We have about 4" on the ground and it is still really coming down. I should have known, took the blade off my Rhino last...

The State Senate unanimously approved a request by Parks & Wildlife to increase all fees in 2019. This includes all hunting and fishing licenses and tags. The proposed elk tag for a non resident would go from $450 to $660 and the fee for residents would go from $45 to $53. Still has a ways to go...

Like one of these!

Took this picture this afternoon (March 9). They are still here. They were on my pond with some honkers. Took off right after I took this, pretty wary. Specs! White Front or Specklebelly Geese showed up in my pasture today. They were with about 100 Canadas. First time ever seen Specs here...

I use my winch with my blade to move snow.

Served jury duty all day yesterday and have to go back to finish today. One trial (felony traffic incident) 6 jurors. Called 60 in for jury pool. Wouldn't you know it, it was called for the jury and picked. Sat most of yesterday listening to testimony, motions and tons of dead time in the jury...

I know everyone has to apply for exactly the same animal & type, but I can't find anything about quantity. We are planning on type 6 Antelope tags, but one of us only want 1doe, the other 2 want 2 does. Can we apply together?

Deer hunting used to be pretty good in southern California. My family settled in Orange County in the 1880's and were all hunters. I have taken deer in the Angeles & Cleveland NF's and the Malibu Mts. Unfortunately access in a lot of the areas that still hold lots of deer in nonexistent because...

The 3 in the pictures are my everyday cutters! Of course the folder is an Outdoor Edge from Eastman's, the smaller sheath knife is a custom skinner made by Mark Wahlster, Silverton, Or. that I had him make to my specification about 30 years ago. I use it on all my big game and it is a wonderful...

A few years back I had a barrel setup on a 03 Springfield action. I had my 'smith get a Shilen stainless match grade barrel. The cost of barrel, installation & chambering was less than $400.00. It was chambered for .220 Ackley Improved Swift and he didn't have that reamer, so it was rented. That...

If you read my other post, you know I just got my Swaro back from repair. The shoulder harness is 12 years old and the elastic is shot.I am getting a new one and there are lots of them with a case attached. Who uses the case and do you like it? Seems like it would be a little clumsy to me. I...

I just received my Swaro Laser Guide range finder/bino combo back from repair. All that was wrong was a broken neck strap fitting. I have had these for about 10 years and have had no other problems with them . They also replaced the eye cup, receiver lens and various small parts and aligned the...
