Threading and chopping a barrel?
I have taken a handful of elk with a 7mm-08 great cartridge but that discussion is too removed from the original post asking for pro and con of chopping a barrel. If you elect not to chop a barrel, great. -
Threading and chopping a barrel?
The outdoor life suppressor testing had the lightest suppressor at 5.5 oz. The new 3d printed titanium suppressors are getting pretty light. They also tested recoil reduction and sound reduction. Looked like a pretty comprehensive test. I am not affiliated in any way. I do shoot a 300 wsm... -

“I don’t want you hunting this outfit.”
I looked to see if there were any other charges filed against Mr Mckeon but got exasperated with social media comments that people believed they were hunting from a helicopter. I did see that he was also charged with illegal use of a suppressor. That charge was dropped. But my experience has...- Dakotakid

Mid to Late Season Midlayer
I use the kuiu 240 with a layer or 3 underneath. I was good to below zero Fahrenheit. Much below -10 I am looking to add the guide pro jacket. The 240 is pretty versatile and has a bit of wind break.- Dakotakid

Threading and chopping a barrel?
Can you mic your barrel at where you plan to chop? I can give you diameter of mine at the suppressor. -
Threading and chopping a barrel?

I have picked up a Kimber Montana in 300 wsm that I am planning to replace barrel with Lilja or proof in 18” Would like to go down to 7wsm or 6.5 prc... -
Wildfire management LTTE
Having my house survive a major wildfire when 60 of my neighbors houses burned, I joined the local vfd. That fire with the wind was traveling much faster than crews could fight. The origin was lightening. That fire also jumped across a bare summer fallowed field without delay. Lots of valuable...- Dakotakid

“I don’t want you hunting this outfit.”
Curious what the sentence was and if the people think it was just? I often see people demanding higher penalties, but this guy seems decent enough- did he get a break? It is hard to agreed that the charges were politically motivated when the video captures the entire crime.- Dakotakid

Comment in Support of FWP Proposed CE in Central MT
Conservation easements are under attack nationally, and in Montana. There is an odd twisted logic that “conserving” the entirety of an estate is supporting private property rights. I have heard a conservative county commissioner say that the government should have never allowed the mineral... -
Comment in Support of FWP Proposed CE in Central MT
Are there any legal beagles that can answer if the CE is 99 years does it somehow claim an exclusive lease or can one of the non profit land trusts purchase the remaining rights for perpetuity? A layered CE? -
Thunder Beast
Field and Stream has a good testing of suppressors and measuring recoil reduction. I assume Thunder beast is included. Great price for a suppressor and reputation is good. I would not hesitate to use that gift certificate. I bought a used Kimber Montana for the purpose of building an 18 inch...- Dakotakid

Seth Bodnar - independent US Senate candidate
Sending anyone to Washington to “fix” anything is futile. It may have taken 250 years to prove Jefferson right, but centralized federal power is by its very nature corrupt.- Dakotakid
