Scope option for a truck gun
Personally I would go with a scope that is tough and reliable. There are inexpensive guns that you don’t mind beating around and will still be accurate. The same, generally speaking, can’t be said the same for a scope. My idea of a truck gun is one that you can depend on even if it looks rough. -
What are your highly educated opinions on tech in hunting?
Can you all remember before OnX, when you had to use a topographical map and a compass? Do you remember the places you could go and not see anyone else? I admit I use it and like it but it opened up a lot of areas to those who weren’t comfortable or not motivated enough to learn navigation...- Redman

Hoosier Buck tag filled
It isn’t what it used to be. I used to have more places to hunt than I could count. Now everyone is leasing out this land. I am down to 2 places and know that one day they will be gone as well. Unless I hit the lottery (which I won’t because I don’t play) or someone sales me land cheap, my... -
Hoosier Buck tag filled
Yes it works great here in Indiana especially stalking in standing corn. I wish First Light wouldn’t have stopped using it. -

Hoosier Buck tag filled
Haven’t been in the woods here in Indiana this year, which is very unusual for me. New job, and warm weather have kept me from getting to excited about going. Didn’t sleep worth a crap last night, and at 5a.m. I was staring at the ceiling fan in our bedroom. Well it is a cool morning and the... -

Hammer Bullets - what makes them so great?
You are correct. If you switch from shooting lead core bullets and don’t clean your bore you won’t have the accuracy you are looking for. I have experienced this and know others that have as well.- Redman

2025 WY Pronghorn Hunt
You didn’t step on any toes. Never post any unit for public view or pictures with easy identifying land features. That info has ruined many good units. There is a ton of info out there to help you out for free and it is easy to find. Stick around here, see how we interact, and you’ll catch... -

2025 WY Pronghorn Hunt
If you followed SFC B post you probably got most of this but I will share a bit anyway. SFC B picked Dave and I up at the airport. Dave had just got back from Alaska salmon fishing and had a terrible cold but was feeling better each day. Opening day was good and wet. We were watching... -
Hammer Bullets - what makes them so great?
After switching to unleaded years ago I was a Barnes bullet fan. They never let me down but had some kills where the animal went a bit further than I expected. After reviewing the terminal performance of Hammers and the accuracy people were getting I wanted to try them. I had a new rifle that...- Redman

Poll - One all around single cartridge under conditions
I have shot them all and own most of them. The 7mm08 is just the perfect all around cartridge. I bought one for my wife and I use it when she will let me. If I can find one in a 1-8 twist I will by it for myself. -
SFC B's yearly folly.......
We had a blast! Went by to quick. Thank you Brother Born for you sweet driving skills and meat packing. I am still laughing at the pasture poodle you sent into orbit from your 22-250🤣- Redman
