    Bighorn Basin - Lodging/Food

    Sounds like a greasy, slippy mess. We had similar conditions on an elk hunt in 2017. The open BLM roads are prob the worst; but I've seen some county roads too that get dicey. Of all the aspects of a western hunt, mud is probably not high on most guys' lists of factors; but getting stuck or...

    Bighorn Basin - Lodging/Food

    I'm good for 10-15 to 11-15; will try to go when the weather is decent-cuz I'm a wuss-but definitely will heed your advice; I saw pictures of some of the guys rigs.

    Bighorn Basin - Lodging/Food

    That's the game plan. Must be some oil/gas exploration, sugar beet or livestock industries around Worland; wasn't expecting so much out there when I cold googled it... Don't want to count my chickens before they hatch, but if I have time after fillng the tag, hope to scout some areas for a...

    Bighorn Basin - Lodging/Food

    Within the next few weeks, I'm hoping to head out to try to punch my doe deer tag (muley or whitey) in the Bighorn Basin. I was unable to make a trip and scout this summer, but there's a lot of accessible public land and WIA in there. I hope to meet up with a buddy for the hunt itself; but...

    Garden's Last Stand

    Yeah. I got a sack of chiles in the spare fridge I need roast and freeze once we get a nicer day. We're not going to get the snow that WY/SD got, but the freeze is coming. Right on time for these parts.

    Wyoming Unit 34 Mule Deer

    I'm not a local or expert, but I have seen them relating to the nasty canyons that have flowing water near them when I've been thru there. Use your maps and you'll find those sorts of places.

    Garden's Last Stand

    Freeze watch/warnings, quiet house (very unusual for a dad of 7-everyone was at sports, work, band, whatever); so I found a few nice Sandia and Espanola chiles still hanging on in my patch; I put them to good use for my solo supper tonite. 😆 Time to haul in whatevers left and usable out back...

    Increasing Pwdr Chrg Yields Lower Speed

    Its super nerdy-but I am an engineer after all-here's a graph I made to show the improvement resulting from using the correct jam depth for my rifle with these bullets:

    Increasing Pwdr Chrg Yields Lower Speed

    More or less similar; before recently, I did not own the comparator attachment and OAL measuring gauge; I got the Sinclair set and it agreed with the sharpie marker method and smoked bullet way I posted about in some recent threads. I'm just glad I caught my mistakes before something serious...

    Increasing Pwdr Chrg Yields Lower Speed

    No wildcatting at all here-I was unintentionally using incorrect seating depths jamming bullets way too deep into the rifling-COL too long to be safe-due to incorrect interpretation of load data, specs, and techniques-where I am now is all in line for this caliber, load, and rifle-well within...

    Increasing Pwdr Chrg Yields Lower Speed

    At the risk of making this into a zombie thread 🧟‍♂️, I wanted to share that for all intents and purposes, I have figured out what caused this velocity drop-off in my setup last year. I made 3 changes (seating depth, primer, powder)-yes, I know the pitfalls of changing too many parameters at a...
