    ATV Thread

    I got this this year and I will have to say I was impressed with it. I have since built a bed for it. Honda Pioneer 500. Narrow enough to go down the trails and pretty comfortable to ride.

    Flintlock Pennsyvlania Whitetail

    Finally got a good buck with my flintlock after years of trying. .50 Hawken Flintlock with homemade patched roundball. To me,this is the definition of a trophy.

    Cabelas Katadyn Vario Water Microfilter PLugged Up

    On my back-country hunt to Colorado this season we encountered plugged up water filters. Is this normal with these filters? I spent more time scrubbing the ceramic filter than I spent pumping water. I literally HATED this filter the entire trip. Seemed to me that the ceramic per-filter...

    Well then....

    Hunting with a muzzleloader (Normally I archery hunt) in some of the thickest steepest nastiest terrain that the Flattops has. Never even cocked the hammer. I was shocked at the amount of hunters and the lack of elk in the Unit I was hunting (And I covered a lot of ground while I was...

    Hair fell out of my cape...

    I shot a buck out west last season and then rolled the cape up and put it on ice for about 6 days while we continued to hunt. (Didn't have access to a freezer) Taxidermist just called me and told me that the hair is slipping beyond repair. To add icing to the cake, he told me that he ordered a...

    Knight Ultra-Lite *MAJOR MALFUNCTION*

    Well YIPPPEEE.... would be a shadow of what I have experienced so far. -Hang Fires ( I honestly feel this is due to the STUPID new design of the breech plug on these ultra-lite muzzleloaders) Super long flash channel. I think the flash channel is filling up with powder and acting as a "Fuse"...

    Knight Ultra-Light ---YIPPEEE!!!!

    Found one for 750$! I'm so happy to finally find one. FPJ Ignition. Talk about a hard gun to find and that's a good price. Only problem is that it is a smooth barrel... so I am going to have to drill and tap it for a front sight and put on a peep sight onto the back of it for Colorado Elk...
