    What lever gun are you thinking? (Bear mainly / possibly other big game)

    I was at a bear camp in CA this past fall (2023) and two hunters had lever guns. One was a Marlin 336 in 35Rem and the other was a new Marlin 1895 in 45/70. Both hunters harvested black bears with full pass through and from what they said the bears didn't go more than 20 yards before piling up...

Basic seasonings include salt, black pepper, and pinch of oregano. Mostly this is what I...

    I don't have first hand exp with the 35 Rem on black bear but have shot several white tail using a Marlin 336 in 35 Rem (200 grain Core-Lokt) and its done the job with authority. I was part of a bear camp this past fall where a 200# bear was taken with a 35 Rem and the results were impressive...

    HELP - Cinnamon or Chocolate? Identifying a black bear color phase

    Seeking some input/feedback from the community regarding the "color phase" of a bear I shot this past year up in Canada. I shared the backstory on another thread (https://www.hunttalk.com/threads/official-2023-summer-bear-thread.319107/page-2#post-3702627 - posted 12/22/2023) if anyone is...

    UPDATE: Got the skull back from the beetle cleaner. Rough score of approx. 19 and 3/8th inches (~12 3/8" length, ~7" width). Measured using a metal two foot ruler and some blocks of wood. Got a buddy that has a large caliber scale in his shop and I'll take it over there to get a more accurate...

    Grouse! Let’s See Them

    great pics folks! i'd add the pic of my grouse but took the muzzle loader for a walk (PA muzzle loader for both antlerless deer and black bear this past weekend) instead of the shotty so when the pair flushed 15-ish yards in front of me all i could do is wistfully watch them go. oh i could have...

    You Ever Get Turned Around In The Woods?

    Back in the early 90's when I was just starting to adventure out without my Dad or Pap, I had just such an experience. I had a cheap compass (probably from a cracker jack box) a topo map from the Forestry and was going into an area of the Allegheny National Forestry (North Central PA) that...

    Deer - lets see em

    This is a PA buck I got back in archery season, early November 2014. Funny story on this buck is that it should be hanging on my buddy's wall and not mine. We've been hunting together since college and at some point decided to film our hunts during the PA archery season. We set our individual...

    Antelope...Lets See Them!!!

    My buddies and I drove from PA for a 3 hunt day DIY antelope hunt in SE MT back in 2019. I was hunting with a Ruger American chambered in 243 Win and had extensive practice out to 500 yards at the range, hitting the 6" metal plate with boring regularity, but was limited myself to a hunting range...
