    Tikka T3 scope mounts/rings

    Unfortunately he's not doing it anymore, I had a set of 1" Lows he did and they worked and looked great. Contacted him about getting a 30mm set and got the bad news.

    Where to get a rifle bolt fluted

    I had Long Rifles Inc. do my Tikka for me. Looks great and it took 8 days to get back to my door step from when it left.

    New Kimber Hunter......going after Tikka, Howa?

    Unfortunately, I have to go the Cabelas route as I have a serious amount of Club Points to burn up. I say 'unfortunately' as the service at the gun counter in the Boise Cabelas is absolutely horrendous and it pains me to spend any money there...

    New Kimber Hunter......going after Tikka, Howa?

    I do like the looks of the Alpine but it's starting to creep out of the price range I'd like to stay in. $800 is about where I'd like to be, don't the Alpine go for about $1,100 typically?

    New Kimber Hunter......going after Tikka, Howa?

    I've been gonna pick up a new "lightweight" .308 for awhile now. Been going back and forth in my head between a Tikka and a Savage Lightweight Hunter...then I came across one of these at Sportmans the other day... Seemed like a good gun to me, I really like the 3 position safety a lot more than...

    Idaho Hunting Politics

    I also tried to show Mr. Moyle the door today, unfortunately it looks like he's got a lead already. Is there any chance he loses in November?

    Idaho Hunting Politics

    Petition signed and spread around to as many as possible. BigFin is right, we have to take some action here, we can't just sit back and let them bulldoze past us. How do we make this happen??? Send Otter a comment/letter too, it's super easy, let these guys know we aren't gonna stand for this...

    sleeping bag

    Haven't had any issues yet, I've used it down below 20 degrees quite a few times. Mine has straps you can run under your sleeping pad to help keep the edges down. I also use a 'wide' version so I have a little extra material to help me out. It also has a zipper on the bottom 20" or so to help...

    sleeping bag

    I'm in this camp, been using quilts for a couple years now, I don't really plan on going back to a bag.

    Eberlestock X2 Pack

    X1a is not quite as capable of an "all around pack" in my opinion. It has a plastic frame sheet as opposed to the wire frame of the x2. Though neither are great heavy haulers, I've used both a lot over the years and the x2 is a lot better with heavy loads. Get a gun bearer as mentioned and...

    Federal Land Management Discussion - Payette, ID - April 29

    Got this forwarded to me in an email, figured I'd pass it along. It was sent out by Russ Fulcher. "I would like to invite you to join me tomorrow at 7 PM, along with Idaho County Commissioner Jim Chmelik and Representative Judy Boyle, to a discussion about the management of our federal...

    Nevada Elk Question

    I buy points for Elk, Deer and Sheep every year. Simply put, can't win if you don't play. I have a couple buddies who guide in NV and they have multiple clients for Elk each year that draw with less than 10 points. I'm looking at it as a one time deal for elk and a good option for some...

    Discussion for the solo hunters

    Lots of good advice here! I'll throw in my $.02 I suppose. What species your chasing is a big consideration, as others have said, 7 miles is quite the ask for a solo elk. Mule deer, no problem. Don't go without at least a Spot, if not something that lets you talk both ways, it's just foolish...

    Public land transfer layout?

    Maybe not exactly what your looking for, but BHA has a multi page PDF on their site (can't find it right now for some reason) and one of the pages is a table laying out exactly what happens when the States get their hands on the land. Might be a good starting point at least, I have it saved on...
