    1970s Scopes

    I have a mid-1950's production standard weight pre-64 model 70 in .270. Has the original Weaver fixed 4x. I sent it back to "Iron Sight". Was still solid and sealed. Had them polish the lenses. Also have a late 1990's stainless model 70 CRF in 6.5 Swede. Bought a Weaver fixed 4x stainless...

    Anybody hunt around Green River Lakes Wyoming? For Elk, Deer or Antelope

    Thank you VERY much. I see Square Top Mt, and Sheep Mt to the left. In my middle years I climbed to the top of Sheep Mt. It earns it's name. A friend of mine took one of his several moose by canoe in one of the back water marshes/ponds that connect to the river. Real easy recovery. I hunted...

    Anybody hunt around Green River Lakes Wyoming? For Elk, Deer or Antelope

    Thanks for your response. I first began going there about 1981. Really began hunting there about 85 when i moved to Wyoming. Hunted there almost every year from 85-2014 for elk, deer and antelope. The grizzlies really got thick during that period. Did a lot of canoe hunting middle to upper...

    Anybody hunt around Green River Lakes Wyoming? For Elk, Deer or Antelope

    Just wondering if anybody has been hunting around Green River Lakes in Wyoming. I have not been back there in 20 years, but that area was once favorite place in the country.

    "Rifles for Here and There, Bullets for This and That"

    A technical issue for me after a blued steel rifle really gets rained on, is feeling obligated to take it apart and dry it out fully under the stock where rust can just magically appear. Doing that always makes a slight or significant shift in POA, hence a need for re-sight in. My Sako Finnlight...

    Mountain Goats

    Thank you for such a thoughtful response. It feels good to be recognized. Quality of wild meat is so fundamental to being a hunter,,,,or a fisherman too. I had been a dry fly trout fisherman for 60 years, then I discovered Kokanee Salmon. I have not picked up my trout fly rods since. The taste...

    "Rifles for Here and There, Bullets for This and That"

    I had a 222 Sako Vixen too. It was the rifle that allowed me to "Wake up". Some close friends had a 3,000 acre Barley ranch. They dry farmed 2,000 acres rotating a 1,000 acres each year. One third of their land was too rocky to till and was just left raw. Having a barley crop they had endless...

    "Rifles for Here and There, Bullets for This and That"

    I was sitting against moss covered boulders on the wet/west side of the Santiam Pass in Oregon’s Cascade Mountains. There was a downpour and just cold enough that some of the huge raindrops formed mini-slush balls. From head to toe and even fingers, I was wearing my best rain gear. In my lap...

    Looking down at Grizzly Bear Tracks, Now What

    I have had three “live off the land” adventures in Alaska. The non-res-small game license was $20, great for Arctic hare, ptarmigan and grouse. Usually, these trips were 10 days to two weeks. One was getting dropped off by boat on the coast (saw brown bears) and in the interior by bush plane.(...

    Looking down at Grizzly Bear Tracks, Now What

    Thank you for your generous response. I got my free read with the article and would need to subscribe to read it again but i did give my full attention The Article itself was like Hawaiian pizza. A mixture of information from various sources over time. Without question i saw references and...

    Looking down at Grizzly Bear Tracks, Now What

    I am very familiar with this article. It came out right after the bear spray study. It is not a study in any sense of the word. It was and still is an attempt by the shooting industry to undermine the conclusion the very valid and groundbreaking bear spray study. What they did was go back to...
