    CVA accura sight recommendations

    You’re on the right track. Globe front sight is great, essentially making it a non-magnified 1x “scoped” weapon from a sight picture standpoint. Non-field adjustable rear peep sight for 0-150 yards. If you want to shoot over 150 then get the adjustable rear sight.

    ACTION ALERT: CPW Commissioner confirmation this week

    I listened to the whole hearing yesterday. Sichko is an angler and small game hunter, not a big game hunter. It was pointed out that there were 12 other applicants with actual big game hunting experience, but he was selected. The sportsman’s representative on the commission should have a DEEP...

    Antero Reservoir to be drained due to drought

    What were the stats they mentioned? It would save 5000 acre feet of water, which is the annual consumption of 15,000 houses? That is minuscule compared to the population of Denver. That hardly seems worth the trade off of destroying a fishery and its related recreation for 5-10 years.

    RIP Garmin Inreach … iPhones to allow satellite messages in ios18

    I was just in New Zealand I and couldn’t get my satellite texting to work no matter what I tried. The demo would work, but it wouldn’t allow me to send or receive. I never figured out the issue. Maybe because AT&T partners with a NZ carrier, and that carrier didn’t support satellite texting...

    How do you store reloaded ammo

    Nice try, since I’m in the glorious liberal state of Colorado, all mine is stored under lock and key. 😉

    Blackhorn 209 issues.

    You don't need to swab with BH209. Blackhorn still fouls; even smokeless powder fouls a barrel.

    ACTION ALERT: CPW Commission vote on fur ban

    Nice quote in there: “I’ve seen better demonstrations of parliamentary procedure and objectivity in the average 4-H meeting,” he said. “Your actions and behavior yesterday did more to destroy trust than any single action in the history of the CPW or this commission.”

    ACTION ALERT: CPW Commission vote on fur ban

    I’m sure today is going about the same as yesterday. If there is one thing they know less about than wildlife management, it’s firearms.

    ACTION ALERT: CPW Commission vote on fur ban

    They just saw that they can do whatever the hell they want, and don't have to root it in anything other than their personal opinions. I fear the worst.

    ACTION ALERT: CPW Commission vote on fur ban

    I’m going to make shirts for the May meeting that say “Biological Science > Social Science”.

    ACTION ALERT: CPW Commission vote on fur ban

    The anti-hunter commissioners kept saying they need specific population data by species, and until they have that they want to ban the harvest of furbearers. Why would that even matter? There is already sound biological data that all furbearer species are stable in Colorado. That would just be...

    ACTION ALERT: CPW Commission vote on fur ban

    This commission completely disregards biological science in favor of social science. They made no attempt to hide this. They looked CPW in the face and said no, we know better than you biologists, and we'll do as we please.

    Case prep question, not sure what to do

    It doesn’t matter. You can run the case into a neck sizing bushing and then ream the inside, or you can run the neck over a mandrel then turn the outside. You can push the excess material to the inside or outside with a bushing or mandrel, respectively. This is the same process for eliminating...

    Help with NAPF Gun Raffle?

    I'd buy the ticket, keep the rifle if I won, pass on the hunt if I had to burn points.

    Pre-64 Model 70s

    For some Winchester firearms you can obtain a factory letter from the Buffalo Bill Center of the West (who currently has the records with details on everything about the gun) including where it was shipped. Unfortunately not for the Model 70. Basically everything goes off of characteristics and...

    Hammer vs Barnes question???

    Hammers are faster due to lower engraving pressure/friction and therefore higher velocity before you hit overall pressure limits. More shock to game upon impact. More accurate, both in bullet to bullet uniformity and on the target. Having said all that, if Hammer's didn't exist I'd shoot Barnes...

    What is this on my brass?

    I’d tumble it and see if it goes away.
