    NODAK things to do

    My wife and I will be in North Dakota at the end of the month over Memorial Day for a few days. We'll fly into Fargo and will be staying in Grand Forks. Anything that we should plan on checking out within a 2-3 hour drive? Any good restaurants, breweries, etc. in the area worth stopping in?

    South Africa 2028

    I attended a local SCI Banquet this past weekend and somehow managed to be the high bidder on a South Africa Cape buffalo hunt. I got it at a truly amazing price so I’m still in shock to some degree as I never thought I’d be able to pull of a hunt like this. I am planning on going April of 2028...

    Pure Precision Stock fit

    I know a few of you have Pure Precision stocks and would like to get your opinion. I recently got a good deal on a Tikka T3x and ordered a PP stock for it. I mounted it a couple days ago and it looks to me like it should be seated another ~1/16" or so as the barrel is at least an 1/8" out of...

    300 H&H brass

    I’m browsing on Midway and they have Nosler brass in 300 H&H. I know a few here are sometimes on the hunt for it.

    Another dehydrated food option

    A younger couple I know here in Pa. own a small, dehydrated food business and thought I’d share their information for anyone interested. I’ve tried most of their meals and they are really good. I know there are a few options out there that are better than Mountain House but these guys are...

    A reminder of why I don't watch YouTube hunting videos

    Other than Fresh Tracks and Meateater, I don’t really watch any other hunting related video for many reasons. However, with 90 degree humid weather for the last month I was getting antsy, so last night, I flipped though Youtube and settled on a video of guys hunting brown bears in Alaska. After...

    Gunsmith recommendation

    It took me a while to find a good smith after the one i used to go to retired a long time ago and there are very few near where I live that I could find. A lengthy amount of research turned up Tim Foor Gunsmithing in Edinboro, Pa. just a few miles south of Erie. I've had him do relatively...

    Nostalgic find

    I was poking around a gun shop the other day and came across this old JC Higgins Model 103. My father had one and that is what I learned to shoot with a little over 50 years ago. Nothing special about it but I thought I ought to have it. I’m guessing it was made in the early 50’s.

    Newfoundland Moose - 2023

    Even though my moose hunt was guided I thought I do a brief write up in case anyone is interested in doing the same. My wife and I drove with a truck bed full of coolers and surprisingly, the distance from our place south of Pittsburgh to North Sydney, Nova Scotia is just a couple miles further...

    Newfoundland moose hunt - Cooler Question

    My wife I will be leaving for Newfoundland in about a month and I have been agonizing over cooler space. Should we get lucky, I want to bring the meat home and butcher it. I have a friend that has a processing shop so I have access to walk in refrigeration and all the tools necessary. My concern...

    243 Twist Rate

    I'm getting my wife's 243 rebarreled (staying with 243) and trying to decide on the best twist. She will use this for deer and antelope so I plan on loading bullets in the 95 - 105 grain range. I'm thinking 1-8 should do it. Any thoughts?

    338-06 bullet choice?

    I had a Browning Abolt re-barreled to 338-06 late last year and I am very happy with how it turned out. I had a few 225gr barnes that I used for the barrel break in and sight in work and they ended up coming in right about an inch or a little less. I’ve shot 250gr Sierra’s, 200 grain Accubonds...

    Marine Corps Medal Eligibility

    Hey Marines, I was at the outdoor show in Harrisburg, Pa a week or so ago and stopped by the VFW booth. I found out that anyone deployed to South Korea after 1954 may be eligible for the Korean Defense Service Medal. I believe you have to have served at lease 30 consecutive or 60 non...

    Fox Mount

    Picked up this guy from my taxidermist last night. I thought it turned out good. Got him last year while hunting small game.

    Shout out to Pelican

    I bought a Pelican 1750 rifle case for airline travel in 2016. This year, flying to Alaska it arrived with a busted latch. When I got home I called customer service and asked if I could buy a new one. They sent me a new, latch, pin and instructions for install free of charge.

    Leupold VX-3i 4.5-14x40 CDS-ZL For Sale

    Bought this new last year and mounted to a 6.5/06. Rough sighted the gun in but never got groups I was happy with. Replaced the scope mounts and put on a different scope. After settling on a load, I don't want to mess with the set up (same scope only older without CDS). I think the mounts may...

    ER Shaw Rebarrel

    I wanted to share my experience with ER Shaw on a rebarrel they did on my Ruger M77 300wm. I called them back in February of this year to schedule the drop off as they are only about an hour and a half away from me. I went with 24” factory contour replacement. At the time the guy told me they...
