    Colorado Archers Preseason Practice

    Anyone on the Front Range want to get together an upcoming weekend and fling some arrows? I'm ready to embarrass myself in front of good shooters.

    Hershel House Rifles

    Saw this and thought y'all might be interested in it, too: https://www.wbko.com/2025/07/22/hershel-house-woodbury-school-preserves-american-gunsmithing-traditions/ One of my dream rifles is a Hershel House flintlock but I'd have an internal battle over toting such a work of art into the field.

    FT 2025 Elk Conservation Stamp

    @Big Fin: love the idea of the annual elk conservation stamps that y'all announced as part of Elk Week: https://shopfreshtracks.com/collections/elk-week-collection/products/2025-elk-conservation-stamp. Will you be talking about these with the artist on an upcoming issue of HT Radio? I'll be...

    Sell Me On A Case Trimmer

    Need to pick up a new rifle brass trimmer and would like to hear what y'all love/hate about your current setup. I'll be trimming .338-06, .308, 6.5 Creed, 25-7 PRC, 25-6.5 PRC, .257 Roberts Ackley, maybe some .223. I had a Hornady Cam Lock trimmer in the distant past but lost it in the move...

    Sell Me on a Bipod/Tripod

    I've shot several animals off my backpack Uncle Randy-style but I'm really only solid to 200ish that way. I've practiced shooting off my spotting scope tripod with the scope swing down and am sort of comfortable that way, especially when I can get my pack under the buttstock for rear support...

    Athlon Chrono?

    Anyone messed with the new Athlon chrono? Is it really the Garmin-killer it is being touted as?

    Adventures with the 257PRC

    Finally got to test some loads through my 257PRC this weekend and thought I'd share a project write-up for anyone interested. I set out with the goal of building a heavier rifle that could do double duty as a Plains deer/antelope and 1000+yard ringing steel rifle. I chanced upon the guys at...

    LA Authorities Encouraging Nutria Harvest

    https://www.kktv.com/2025/02/28/wildlife-officials-want-you-eat-this-rodent/ Anyone got a good recipe for water rat? I'm sure @WildWill could make it palatable with enough time on the smoker.

    Anyone pull a tag this morning? I lucked out, so looking like my spring will be Kansas (draw pending), Colorado OTC and Wyoming.

    Powder Puff Loads for Small Game

    If not already clear, the middle of the offseason is driving me up the wall. So today's daydream was powder puff loads suitable for grouse or other small game for a standard centerfire cartridge that I'd otherwise be carrying for deer or elk. I'm thinking 10ish grains of Blue Dot and dacron or...

    Wilderness First Aid

    As backcountry hunters, the ability to apply first aid to ourselves or others can be a matter of life or death. I took the NOLS Wilderness First Aid a few years ago and found it pretty useful for basic info. Most of my classmates were college kids working at summer camps or the granola crowd. I...

    Case Forming?

    I'm currently gathering components for my first true wildcat to be built-- a 25-7 PRC built on a (you guessed it) Tikka action. I'm picking up a 25 WSSM die to handle the initial neckdown but I'll need 3 fired cases for custom dies to be built to match the chamber. In the past, I've...
