    Thank you.

    Savage Revel .22 classic - opinions?

    I'll have to take another look. I owned a 94/22 in magnum about 25 years ago. Probably should have kept it.

    Savage Revel .22 classic - opinions?

    I love the suggestion, but one of the problems I had with the traditional 39a was the weight of the barrel. It was unnecessarily (IMO) heavy for a .22 sporting/hunting rifle. That Carbine has better lines, but still the same heavy barrel and fat forend. I never could understand why Marlin...

    Extreme Downsizing of Dept. of Interior. Hits just keep on coming.

    I'm so over all this. The damage that has already been done is beyond the point of recovering. Generations of young conservationists won't go near federal employment now. So much for attracting the best and brightest to serve us. Pretty much the opposite of #winning.

    Extreme Downsizing of Dept. of Interior. Hits just keep on coming.

    I'd be curious to hear you explain what you think is the "right" number, and what that number is based on.

    A new way to look at corner crossing?

    You have to be of a certain vintage to fully appreciate this question. LOL

    A new way to look at corner crossing?

    A commonly held belief in states where I've worked that is rarely supported by law. Example: A tract of land is landlocked by four separate landowners who all have access to a public ROW. Can you tell us which one is required to give the landlocked owner an easement?

    State and federal co-management of national Forest?

    The ones I know of, it's mostly the feds $. But the state does jobs that the fed's can't do, mostly because of policy or staffing.

    State and federal co-management of national Forest?

    Every situation is unique. But your concern may be misplaced unless you don't also pay state taxes.

    I’m financially illiterate I guess…

    Anything they can claim as #winning and if it "owns the libs" then that's just icing on the cake. Other than that, I don't think the admin has a clue what their own priorities actually are. They are finding out (daily) that the sound bite issues that got their base fired up are in most cases...

    State and federal co-management of national Forest?

    I don't see this example as a concerning one. There are co-managed fed/state public land examples all across the U.S. already. Most people who use them don't even know about the arrangement, or care. Could these agreements make it that much easier to "give" those lands to the state? I guess...

    American prairie. What's the issue?

    What I find stunning is that often the one individual who has the most influence over stocking rates, is the county tax assessor who dictates how many head a landowner must run to qualify for an ag exemption. And that can vary wildly from one county to the next. They aren't required to have...

    American prairie. What's the issue?

    There are a few multi-generational stewards of land, and there are a lot more multi-generational users of land. Let's not romanticize the fact that at the end of the day, the goal for most is still to make enough money to at least survive on, if not get wealthy. I have a hard time buying the...

    What 100 year old cartridges do you use

    .22 LR, 30-30 currently. Have owned several 6.5x55's and 7x57's, and a few '06's. All great guns that do nothing my 7mm-08, .308 or .300 WSM can't do better.

    Wyoming Game and Fish Director Confused About Purpose of the Agency

    Literally everyone. LOL I've often wondered if those same people also argue with their auto mechanics, electricians, doctors and accountants. Probably so.

    Wyoming Game and Fish Director Confused About Purpose of the Agency

    Thanks for the clarification. Yes, the director making a statement like that deserves all the scrutiny they receive.

    Wyoming Game and Fish Director Confused About Purpose of the Agency

    Looked back at my post several times, and couldn't tell where I said anything of the sort.

    Wyoming Game and Fish Director Confused About Purpose of the Agency

    40 years ago, on day 1 of Forestry 101, Dr. James Kroll (aka Dr. Deer) told all of us that we were here to learn how to manage people, not wildlife. First 10 min. of class he said everyone who is here that thinks they are going to get away from people and spend all day in the woods, go ahead...

    Wyoming Game and Fish Director Confused About Purpose of the Agency

    Imagine a stock trader or welder or doctor or electrician having every decision picked apart in public the way wildlife officials are. Short of entertainers (and they asked for it), what other profession has so much public exposure and scrutiny.
