I am basically a 62 year old flat lander, but Elk hunted out West in 2017 with a great group of guys. We killed five Elk on that trip and I helped pack out each one. I was home two weeks and had a Gallbladder attack. Had it removed. I had pain in my right hip the whole time I was there but had...

Thanks, I want one.

My son is trying to decide between a Tikka T3x Superlite or Browning Hell?s Canyon in 300 WM. The Tikka lists a 11? twist while the Browning lists a 8? twist. There is bound to be a great difference between bullet weight performance in the two. I don?t have any experience with a 300WM so let?s...

I shoot a Tikka T3 SL in 7RM. I tried 140 gr Federal loaded with Nosler Partitions with 2+ inch groups. Went to Remington Core Lokts in 150 gr and shoot consistent 1.5 ? groups. That?s what I have been hunting with. I sighted in today with the Core Lokts waiting 10 minutes between shots. Still...

I occasionally look at the deals in Cabela?s Bargain Cave. Tonight I saw the Polartech ECWCS Polar Weight base layer that I wear on sale for $29.88. I retrieved my credit card to order. Sold Out! I continued to view other items but noticed very few items in there. Looks like my favorite base...

I purchased a new Tikka 7RM last year. I decided that I would break in the barrel as suggested on several sites I visited. Clean before first shot and between each shot through 10 shots. This was a pain but allowed the barrel to cool between shots. Then after three shots for 9 more rounds. The...

I will be in a wall tent this fall in Utah. I need to purchase a cot for the hunt. Experience appreciated.

what are the chances of seeing/killing a spike Elk in the LaSalles if that is the only tag you have?

Thinking about replacing the insoles in my Meindl Perfekt Hikers with the Meindl brand insoles. Anyone done this? Some reviews say to order a size smaller and some say to order the size you have. Any experience appreciated.

I am an Eastern hunter coming west this fall to hunt Elk. I own a Browning A-Bolt in 308 caliber and a Tikka Super Lite in 7RM. Both are scoped with VX3i 4.5 x 14 x 40. While I would feel confident with either I would like opinions on which you would consider the best option, which bullet and...

I am in St. Louis for business and as I checked in I notice people are setting up what looks like a hunting show. As it turns out P & Y is having it's semi annual conference in the hotel this week. I visited several booths and a super nice guy let me go in and view this year's entries. Wow! Just...

My wife and I are going to carry our family on a ski trip during the holidays this winter. We are currently looking at Big Sky for no particular reason. I would like for this to be a great trip for all of us but not break the bank. I have never been snow skiing. For those of you that go, please...

I may be crazy but I could not help myself. I have three Model Seven and one Savage 16 in 260 Remington caliber. A guy heard I liked the caliber and came by with an A-Bolt II in the caliber today and I bought it. Only the second one I have seen in an A-Bolt. Now all four grandchildren and I have...

Thinking about getting a couple of these for the boys to use in the shooter houses. Anyone using one? Recommendations? Can be bought for about $80.00. Like This

Had a brief window of opportunity today to start breaking in the barrel on my new Super Lite. Cleaned the barrel good before I started and bore sited. Fired three shots and cleaned between each. Four inches high and 1.5 right. 1 1/4 inch group. Adjusted to impact at 2 high and repeated cleaning...

Natchez has a heck of a sale on the Leupold VX 3 & VX3L. Best prices I have ever seen. Go to natchezss.com.

I looked at a new Tikka at the local gun shop today. I went in wanting to put my hands on a T3 Lite in 300WM stainless. They did not have one but had a T3 stainless in 7RM with fluted barrel and Camo stock. The clerk said it was a "Shot Show Special". I knew that Tikka sold their "Super Lite"...

I have a property that I am going to set up a 200 yard range on. Although I don't have limitless options, I can set it up directionally somewhat. Looking North, looking South? Consider predominant wind direction? I am in Mississippi at approximately 475' altitude if that would make a difference...

I have an itch for another rifle. Thinking 7mm Rem Mag, 300 WM or 300 WSM. Rifle would be stainless/synthetic. Looking at Browning X-Bolt and Tikka T3 Lite. Could do a Model Seven in the WSM. What say you and why? Mainly Whitetails.

I acquired my third Remington Model Seven stainless/synthetic .260 Rem caliber last week. These rifles are for my three grandsons. I carried this rifle to the range and was getting a group about the size of a volley ball. Now grant you my other two are not sub moa shooters but will generally...
