    Cell Service Outage

    How many on here are without cell service now? It's interesting that it seems to be concentrated at major cities. No issues where I'm at, but I hear in the southern half of MN there's issues...

    Arctic Survival Story

    Pretty interesting video. I watched a lot of the Eastmans videos and read a lot of their publications growing up. Its a pretty interesting story with lots of old footage that's pretty cool to see!

    Devaluing Non-Residents

    Interesting article. If a states DNR/G&F is receiving so much federal and non-resident funding, who really is "entitled" to the animals...

    Ouch

    Bumped into this on Facebook... That's gotta hurt! I flex test arrows fairly often. Especially if I have them touching in the target. Easy way to be safe. But damn. Be careful!

    Montana Moose Hunt - Raingear

    My uncle pulled a once in a lifetime moose tag in Montana after applying for about 25 years. I'll be going out the last week of September to help him for a week. I have been needing to replace my raingear for some time and I think this is as good of an excuse as any. I'll probably go First Lite...

    $3.5 Million Disqualified Marlin...

    The Big Rock Blue Marlin Tournament wrapped up last week. I don't really follow it, but usually read some stories that come out of it. This one is mighty controversial...

    Oregon Seceding?

    I wonder if anything will come of this. Idaho could get quite a bit bigger! I wish greater Minnesota would secede from the twin cities... https://www.foxnews.com/media/oregon-residents-may-secede-over-east-west-political-divide-not-unified-state-anymore

    Sofrin/Peax headlamps

    Just wanted to share with everyone who may not already know. I was really interested in the peax headlamp. Good battery life, aluminum, rechargeable, etc. I looked into buying one, and was looking for reviews. Found a thread on rockslide about it. Turns out they are just rebranded sofrin...

    How do you carry your bear defense sidearm

    To piggyback off the 44 mag vs 10mm thread, it brought up another question I'd like some input on. What is everyone using for holsters for carrying their sidearm while hunting? I picked up a 10mm recently and after some back and forth with holster options I decided to go with a drop leg one...

    First timer in Wyoming...

    Looking for any opinions or info on some Wyoming elk hunting. I'm on the fence between 2 units. 32 and 36. Seemingly significantly different units in terms of landscape. I should (maybe) be able to draw either unit depending on what this year looks like in terms of hunters... Based on the...

    Athlon Scopes

    Let's hear some opinions on Athlon optics. Specifically the Ares 2.5-15. I found a sporting goods store that should have them in stock. Just have to get down there and check them out. Want to know if anyone has any experience with Athlon scopes in general. Seem to have a warranty similar to...

    Thoughts on this shot? - Tim Wells

    120 Yard shot on a bull elk. No sights, fingers, all instinctive... Is it responsible? Not in my mind, but it was a hell of a shot regardless. (The video should start at 23:50 just before the shot)

    Cover yourself when buying online...

    With the recent matt0550 account getting hacked and scamming some people I figured I would throw this out so everyone else is extremely careful. The username on Venmo that this scammer is under is @good-huntingss. It appears they are still using the account to scam people (based on their feed)...

    Developing a load 338 wm

    Fairly new to reloading so bear with me! I loaded from 67 to 76 gr of reloader 19 for my 338. I read from a manual that 66.9 grains is a good starting point for the bullet/powder combination. It calls max powder charge at 76. I've loaded like I said 67 up to 76 with 1 grain increments. I figure...

    Hornady SST vs ELD-X

    Well i was lucky enough to catch the bullet from a deer I shot this weekend. It was a 200 grain sst shot out of a 338 win mag. The bullet appears to have held together pretty well. It was only about a 80 yard shot. Has anyone caught an ELD-X? I'm thinking of ordering a box to try out as well...
