    New threat to 2nd A?

    Seems like an appropriate thread for this..

    Tikka shooters- Mount the scope to the factory dovetail, or add a picatinny rail?

    This is the way. Direct bolt on to the built in rail with a recoil pin and super strong. I have tried pic rails before and I’m not a fan. The direct mount is stronger and lower for a better cheek weld.

    Is chasing Wyoming permits worth it?

    Not enough gun for the size of elk I am after, but thank you.

    Is chasing Wyoming permits worth it?

    If successful, my Wyoming elk camp will be luxurious with a camper, Pendleton by the fire at night, and the trusty .300 win mag.

    Is chasing Wyoming permits worth it?

    Whitetails are cool, but you can’t put a price tag on the feeling you get lining up on a nice bull elk. YMMV.

    Is chasing Wyoming permits worth it?

    This thread is more refreshing than a frosty tailgate beer on a hot day of ranch work compared to arguing about politics. I love it. We need a good old fashioned elk cartridge debate too. I just sent in my money to Wyoming, throwing in for the tag instead of just buying points for the first...

    44 Mag, some rounds won’t chamber

    Unfortunately the standard RCBS seat and crimp all in one is really prone to doing this. I should get a Lee factory crimp die, but I’m cheap so I just seat and crimp in two separate steps with the RCBS die. Get some 240 grain cast SWCs and Unique and you’ll have some seriously fun big bore...

    The battleship is in drydock being built

    I like keeping the propane to a minimum. I used to stay in a little cabin on occasion with propane everything, including heat. It got a little spooky running a propane heater all the time when it was cold. I would have felt a lot better with a wood stove.

    The battleship is in drydock being built

    This is pretty badass. I might have missed it, but are you doing diesel heat again?

    Looking for a travel trailer

    I’m no camper pro, but I believe my dad’s Dutchman camper that I borrow on occasion is a 24’, also 2 axle with no slide outs. It’s not bad, like most campers it’s built a little on the flimsy side to keep weight down. I think that one is a little over 5,000 fully loaded. That’s about the max...

    7mm PRC do all bullet?

    I agree, and I’d happily shoot some core lokts. The Accubonds are a very good balance of wound channel, penetration, and being reasonable on meat loss though.

    7mm PRC do all bullet?

    If the goal is killing elk instead of ballistic mental masturbation, the 7mm 160 accubond is a killer… So are the .277 140s, .308 165s and 180s, and a bunch of others.

    Spike vs Branch Antlered Bulls

    This is correct. It’s poorly written in the regulations, but shooting a male that just happens to be antlerless is not a violation.

    New shotgun on way.

    I own an A300 for a beater waterfowl gun and shoot a 1301 tactical as well, both are very reliable and soft shooting. You chose well.

    Warmth hiking layer sub zero

    I picked up a Sitka ambient jacket this year on clearance, it’s pretty great for being active and sweating in the cold without getting soaked.

    SNOW SUCKS!

    You can send that snow back to the motherland for us. I’ll take snow over warm and windy, or as of today very cold, windy, and dry.

    I wish I could right now, she’s a beaut, Clark.

    Leupold scopes love or hate em?

    Another VX3 data point today. 2.5-8x36 on my Tikka .308 in unknown munitions rings, 155 ELDMs. My dog knocked over the rifle and it landed hard on the scope on hard frozen ground. Took it to the range to check zero and finish off a batch of 50 to reload. This was my last ground of 10, spot on...

    Where am I

    You people and your spot burning scenery shots… Here’s the Redacted Range. Guess away.

    Great Social Media posts?

    Make a terrible neck shot on a bull, never recover it, and then post to instagram. Pretty much the typical archery elk story of 2025.
