Small Bullets (.224) and BIG game
I shoot a 7mag with 160gr NBT and a fast 7 twist .243 with 107 SMK’s. Ive killed a bunch of elk and a few deer with the 7 mag and I’ve killed a bunch of deer and a few elk with the fast twist .243 shooting the 107 SMK—it exits, does much less meat damage and penetrates much better than you would...- Horseman

The classic magnums - will they see a renaissance?
I like my custom .243 and my custom 7rem mag. I waste a ton of f’n time deciding which one I’m gonna take hunting. -

Social security by the numbers
I’m disappointed in how many people on this thread are still blaming the poor for for the social security crisis like it’s still the 1990’s…’they don’t wanna work or plan for their retirement like they did in the old days’. ‘I’m making $xxx,xxx per year and have paid SS $xxx,xxx over my...- Horseman

"Compensatory Reproduction" in Coyotes, why killing them equals more coyotes and less deer
It doesn’t make me feel good to kill something unless I’m excited to eat it. Used to but not anymore -

Extreme Downsizing of Dept. of Interior. Hits just keep on coming.
Seems like all of the Trump signage has been taken down around my MT town! I have seen a couple American flags flying upside down since Trump started the Iran war which is unsettling.- Horseman

Extreme Downsizing of Dept. of Interior. Hits just keep on coming.
Agreed!! It cannot be stressed enough how harmful the Citizens United decision has been to our democracy and country. The Citizens United decision has allowed the obscenely wealthy to buy our government and therefore eventually take whatever they want-like our public lands. The Citizens United...- Horseman

House Insurance Canceled due to Wildfires Potential
Hot, dry and high winds and that fire will eat dirt to get to your house. My ol’ house was making some unsettling noises the other day in 80mph gusts. Im convinced it’s getting windier every year. I’ve also never experienced a hotter dryer winter in 20 years of living in sw mt. When growing up...- Horseman

Hunting Rifle Triggers
I have a timney and two trigger techs. The timney is on a custom ruger mk2 and is at 1.5lb and is one of the most perfect feeling hunting triggers I’ve ever felt. The single stage Triggertech is on a rem 700 and around 2lbs-I don’t like it as much as the timney for a single stage-it doesn’t feel...- Horseman

Non-political Make ICE hate make sense to me. Can it be civil?
Uh maybe because ICE are Federal gunmen that look and operate like neo nazis while occupying US cities where they are grossly unwelcome. What happened to state’s rights? Seems like what Hitler did in the 1930’s! Because ICE seems to be currently the main apparatus for dividing and antagonizing...- Horseman

Lot of land (Rams owner Stan Kroenke)
He only gets to ‘own’ it until he dies…and he’s old. I’m so glad I have not wasted any of my time trying to get rich.- Horseman

Bad shot - good ending
Very cool antlers!! I think it’s funny how a lot of people claim that ‘the meat’s great’ after they leave a gut shot animal overnight LOL. Every animal that I’ve ever tried eating after it spent the night with the guts marinating inside has tasted just like it smelled…like poop, bad farts etc... -

Got my 3rd ever deer😁
It sounds like you moved the deer a little ways from where it died to where you gutted it. This and the additional time the deer carcass spent ungutted wouldve allowed gas to build up plenty of pressure inside its stomach rumen etc. Then you go around moving it, throwing it over your shoulders...
