Heading to WY for an elk hunt in October. Horses are used everyday in the remote area these guys hunt. They are saying 1-2 hours every morning to get in, then again to get out. I have ridden, but its been a while. I have free access to horses and plan to start putting in time on them. How long... -

Colt electro rifle scopes
I recently won a hefty certificate towards one of these optics. I’ve never heard of them before, and neither had several friends I was with, that know a lot about guns/optics. Anyone have any hands on experience with these scopes? If so, would you mind sharing your thoughts and experiences... -

Buying a spotter (yes another spotting scope thread)
I am going to be buying a spotting scope soon. I have read everything I can find, or stand to read on them. After seeing an 80mm in person and realizing it is way too big, I have settled on 60-65mm models. This will be used at the range and for hunting. I want something that is packable but... -

Orange vest recommendations?
I have worn a heavy faux wool vest for gun hunting for many, many seasons. Kind of a "lucky" piece I guess? The zipper broke last year, and since I have been upgrading all of my clothing, I am looking for a new orange vest. Something with useful pockets that will fit over a couple of layers...- LongCut

Gun lube/cleaners and you scent fanatics.....
I pay attention to the wind and do what I can to control my own scent, but not to the extreme that some do. But I have to imagine my guns stink!! Heck we used to check zero, then scrub them out with hoppes and oil them a day or two before the firearms opener. I havent done that in years, and... -

Colorado bear tag
I am scheduled to go to Colorado for elk this fall. First rifle in unit 21. For the extra $100 and change, I can't see not having a bear tag on me. My buddy went on an elk hunt years ago and barely saw any elk. He passed on getting tags for deer and bear because if the cost. Of course, he...- LongCut
