I guess I'll start this off. Back in the 60's when I first really got into reloading shotgun, my buddies and I would do a lot of experimenting as there wasn't a whole lot of information like there is today. We didn't have plastic wads and all the hulls were paper. We were going duck hunting in...

House Bill 1321 was passed out of committee to the full House which would raise fees for hunting, fishing and state parks entrance. The license for fishing could be raised from $25 to $37.50, small game hunting to $30, deer to $45 & elk to $67.50. The bill would also eliminate free senior...

Need a little advice from some of you computer experts. I have a Garmin 650 Oregon with a Colorado chip. Out in the field I sometimes have a problem with the small screen...too much sun, no reading glasses, etc. At home I interface it with my home computer. I have downloaded Garmin's Base Camp...

I have my first rifle I ever owned...a surplus 1903 Springfield, 30-06. It was made in 1927. My Grandfather got it from the NRA in about 1950. Totally sportized, as we did with lots of military stuff back then. After many years it started shooting lousy, first thought was barrels shot. I decided...

Finally got around to working on it. My shoulder surgery kinda got in the way. A friend works on tractors and he cam over and we started. Got the cowl/fuel tank off, radiator out and took off the generator. Radiator is going to be boiled out, rodded out. Generator rebuilt. We also realigned the...

I'll probably get a few peoples dander up, but here goes anyway. With the advent of the ultra long range hunters and TV shows, the need for a better bullet to fit THEIR needs surfaced and Berger really stepped up. But I am not a ULR hunter. For me probably 500 yards is about as far as I'm...

I recently went thru retiring a dog, tough deal. Had Molly for almost 14 years and was my blind companion for 12 . Recently got a new pup and she is going to be a go getter. God made black dogs to be blind companions, friends and retrievers and did a great job doing it!

Why a new one? Anything wrong with the old one....still shooting good groups? If the old one still shoots great and you just want a new rifle, I surely would opt for a different caliber. I have a sporterized 03 Springfield that I've had since I was 12 (over 60 years), it still shoots great and...

There is one thing in Eberle's post I don't agree with.....thumbhole stocks for a hunting rifle. I built stocks for many years (over 100 as I remember) and decided to build a new rifle. I built me a really nice thumbhole stock. I shoot lefthanded and back in the day there wearn't too many left...

Here are a few pictures. Hunting at about 10,000'.

Josh, I did weigh my current bipod and you are correct about the weight difference. What is the promo code price? CC

I saw a review on this product several weeks ago and also received an Eastmans review today. It looks really great for functionality. The only problem other than being a little "spendy" is the weight. It weighs 1.5# for the ground model. Man that is heavy. Anybody tried one?

Leupold VXIII 6x18 mounted on my custom .220 Ackley Improved Swift. This is the scope I mention in an earlier post that started out mounted on a Ruger M77 25-06, my go to rifle for deer and antelope (no has a VXIII 4x14 40mm on it). I initially thought the 6x18 would be great for antelope...

I second the Polaris. I too have a Sportsman 500 HO. I bought it new in 2005 and have never touched it except changing oil. I have about 1500 miles on it. I put a whole cow elk on the rear rack and my buddy sat on the front rack and off we went foe about 3 miles on a 2 track to get to the truck...

Just bought an incredible TC butt stock and now looking for a forend. I know its a longshot, but you never know. Already looked on ebay and Gunbroker.

Montrose is pretty big town and growing. I have 6 acres. I was vacant land with irrigation shares. We designed and worked with a contractor to build our home. There are lots of places that have seasonal irrigation water that really opens your options. I have 5 shares of water (from May 1 to Oct...

I have a Garmin Oregon 600 that is great. I also have a couple of the state landowner chips for it. Lots of the time I need my reading glasses to really get a good view of the info. I am thinking about getting a tablet to transfer data into from the gps so I can see the data from a larger...

Loved my 99 F350 4x4, powerstroke. Put over 300,000 miles on it. Sold it in 2015, 17 years after I bought it new. Engine & tranny had never been apart, just servicing. Had a couple of issues on trips in 2015 and decided to get a new one as we were planning a 3 month trip to Alaska towing our...

Getting ready for Notre Dame vs USC FIGHT ON!
