I love an external frame for packing a lot of weight but I can't stand hunting out of one once im packed in. I saw the BL ox go on camofire today and was about to pull the trigger on it when I got the idea of combing my alaskan pack frame and BL 2200. Thought it would be the best of both worlds...

My buddy is trying to get me to buy his 300 weatherby sendero for $700. He says his dad put $400 into it at the smith in accurizing, im assuming that means the action has been trued and timed free float and maybe bedded. Scheels said they would give him $800 in a trade in for the gun he wants...

I didnt want to thread jack sslingers thread so here goes. Bitterroot and Kevin both have suggested a SPOT or satellite phone to contact a packer to get an elk out of the woods. Only problem is i'm in college and am broke and the 2 ranchers ive talked to want money and not labor, and outfitters...

With all of the nice weather we've had in central MT I decided to try a different access point into one of my back country spots. Its not real high in elevation (4500-6k) so most of the snow was melted off. I was back in around 3 miles or so. It was my first overnight trip solo and the mental...

When do the sheds start dropping in central MT? I went out saturday and saw a 140 class 4 point packing both sides. All the bucks around my place are still packing both sides as well. Interesting enough I saw a small 3 point and 4 point doing some light sparring last week. Im itching to get out...

My dink from this year

I found a honey hole way up in the beartooths early on this season that held some really nice bucks but could never connect before the snow hit. I dont have the equipment to back pack in later in the season so that spot was out for me. I did get a picture through my spotting scope of a really...

My brother and I are headed into the back country this weekend for 3 days. We have all the gear necessary but ive had a hard time putting a food list together. We will each have a mountain house for dinner but what else do you guys do for breakfast and lunch? Were on a bit of a budget so...

Im in need of a new spotter thats light weight. Ive been lugging around a wind river sequoia 15-45x60. Its heavy and I cant use it much past 30 power anyways, and at low light its useless. I just cant justify toting it along when it weighs as much as it does and it doesnt give me much use. But...

Good friend of mine got this Washington Black tail the other morning in my old stomping grounds.

What do you guys recommend for some good elk medicine in 270? I know its not the most ideal caliber for elk but im sure jack o'connor proved it could get the job done. It seems like I cant go wrong with an accubond but I want to hear what others would recommend as well.

Headed up to the crazys after my college orientation tomorrow to try and find some elk before archery season. Is this area worth checking out? Its the closest place I can seem to find decent elk hunting to Billings. I have a couple of spots ive been looking over on the map and google earth that...

I find myself over looking smaller block management areas with 500 or 600 acres. So I started thinking and I was wondering if alot of people dont bother with the smaller areas and instead go to the larger ranches with a few thousand acres? Im trying to avoid the crowds as much as possible so I...

How does one go about buying a wyoming left over lope tag? Is there a place I can check to see what units have left over tags?

Anybody have a chance to look through these yet? I was wondering how they compared to other binos in the same price range. Ive been debating between the Gold Rings and ZenRays until these came around and now im wondering how the steiners match up to them. Any other suggestions in the same price...
