    Here is something that is disgusting!

    Our local shooting club belongs to SCI because they give us range improvement grants almost every year. I was thumbing thru SCI's latest magazine "Safari" and saw this ad for Whitetail hunting. It is obviously a breeding farm that sells it's animals for people to shoot. Notice I avoided any...

    Winter Research - Wyoming Goats for a Canadian rambler

    I have never seen any Chukkars when I'm antelope hunting. I have seen plenty of huns, but all on private around hay fields. I would definitely hunt the units with more public (like 73) for does. I hunted a unit near 73 this year and 3 of us got 6 does in 3 days. Real easy hunt. It will also...

    If you could get a tag for either Unit 1,2,10 or 201, which would you prefer and why? Just a little background for some research I'm doing.

    Lefties shooting right-handed guns??

    I have Ambliopa (sp) aka Lazy Eye in my right eye. I am naturally right handed. Found out about it when I was 6 or 7 when my Dad tried to teach me to shoot a .22 rifle right handed. Switched to lefty and that is what I have always shot....for 70 or so years. I always shot a right handed bolt...

    A couple of weeks ago while antelope hunting in Wyoming, had something happen that happens to every reloader....eventually. I was setup on a doe at about 200 yards, head down feeding. Squeezed the trigger and just a pop. Jacked out the round and tried to chamber another....no go, couldn't...

    Advice - COAL for 280 Mdl 70

    Never heard or it. I'm kinda funny in my approach to reloading....old school & if it ain't broke, don't fix it. My loads for my 30-06 & 25-06 were developed over 40 years ago. They still perform to my expectations, so I don't screw around with the loads. When I got my .300 Wby, it took me a long...

    Goose Hunting Colorado Help and Questions

    I'm pretty lucky....I've hunted waterfowl for over 60 years. I've learned a lot and lots of it applies to ducks & geese anywhere they are. If you live in an area that has a reasonable population of geese, get out and watch them. Where they go, where they feed, what times do they fly, etc. They...

    Advice - COAL for 280 Mdl 70

    Other than Nosler Partition in my .300 Wby Mag, all I use I everything else (.25-06, 257 Wby, 30-06 & .243 ) is Sierra Game King BTs. I have used Sierra bullets for over 50 years and they perform great for me. I also use them in my .220 Ackley Improved Swift. Given that the Speers are only 5...
