    Young Bird Dog (hopefully)

    So the kids were finally at an age where they are mainly self sufficient (8 and 5). I had been researching and learning as much as I could about breeders and breeds. I talked the wife into a golden retriever from a hunting background. We were on the list for the first female from a litter that...

    30-30 Brass: SW Montana

    Anyone have some used 30-30 brass sitting around that they could part with? I am working up loads for a 7-30 and have been fire forming old 30-30 brass, but I am hoping to start building a backlog. Hoping for something in the Missoula/ Bitterroot area.

    LEUPOLD Warranty - Input Wanted

    I have an item I am looking for some peer feedback on. A while back I purchased a S&W .500 revolver as a gift for myself (prior to having actual responsibilities in life). I topped it with a LEUPOLD FX-II 4x28 long relief pistol scope in silver, which looked real nice on top of the stainless...

    California Black Bears

    I know California has the largest population of black bears in at least the lower 48 states (I’m pretty sure that’s true or really close to true). I would love to be able to begin to hone my bear hunting location/ timing now, so when my kids are old enough, I can take them. What are some things...

    Cast Your Own?

    Is anyone casting their own bullets? I have started to dig into this topic and might try my hand at casting my own so I can continue my path into more obscure calibers. Searching around here I didn’t come across too many threads about people casting their own. I would think maybe @shrapnel and...

    Skull Bleaching Bitterroot

    Anyone have any leads on individuals that do skull bleaching in the Bitterroot Valley? I had someone in Lolo do my elk a few years ago, but I can’t find their contact info now. I believe there is a place in Darby, but I would prefer closer to Stevi if there is someone this way that does it. Thanks!

    Gold Country Ammo Question

    Has anyone purchased bullets or ammo from Goldcountryammo.com? I have searched around and there are lots of similar posts to this and the “Owner” even reply’s to a lot of the different forum posts, but I still can’t find anything saying someone actually received product from them. I am asking as...

    WW2 Artillery Shell Art

    I don’t think I have shared this before (forgive me if I have). My Grandfather was in charge of a POW camp in France during WW2. He came home with various items that the POWs made from used artillery shells in their spare time. The craftsmanship is incredible for the time and the constraints...

    .500 S&W Hunting Loads

    I bought a .500 S&W 20 years ago which got me into hand loading (I was in college and thought it was the coolest gun ever). I have kicked around various loads over the years for target pratice, but have never hunted with the gun. A few units I try to hunt allow traditional handgun, which this...

    Old Hunting License Discovery

    My wife’s grandfather was a game warden in Newport Beach, California in the 50’s and 60’s. He told stories of chasing deer and shooting ducks in what is now the back bay nature preserve (John Wayne Airport area) and coming home with lobster and fish every night (well before the place had...

    Elk Diaphragm Call Longevity

    I am having trouble with keeping the latex on my elk diaphragm calls from ripping after a few weeks. I have tried different call Mfgrs. (Rocky Mountain, Sage and a few others), but I get the same result. This happens with new ones that I keep in my office and use a few times a week, as well as...

    Talk to me about lightening storms in the mountains

    After having been caught in a few lightening storms in the high mountains, and on remote rivers, I am curious what others do in that situation. If the storm is rolling right over you guys, are you sheltering in your tents, taking a chance and hiding below the cover of a grove of trees, or are...

    Solidworks Design/ Knowledge/ Skills Wanted

    I have been working on the design of a new product and have had people assisting me with the technical aspects in Solidworks. I am on the homestretch of the design cycle, but my designer has lost interest and I haven’t got around to learning/ figuring out Solidworks yet, so I can’t figure out...

    Found a New (to me) Wild Game Cooking Series

    I always check in on Hank Shaws blog and podcast as I appreciate his take on wild food cooking. His latest post was about a podcast he did with Andrew Zimmerman - I haven’t listened to the podcast yet, but I pulled up Andrews series called Andrew Zimmerman Wild Food Kitchen and his series is...

    Brown Sugar-Glazed Ham

    Harvested a wild pig a week or two ago. I have a long list of recipes that I want to use with it, but I thought I would start with a cured ham (this will be my first time curing a ham). I am using the American-Style Brown-Sugar-Glazed Holiday Ham recipe from the book Charcuterie. The ham is...

    Copper 7mm-08 Ammo

    Anyone in SW Montana have any all copper 7mm-08 ammo they would be willing to part with? I am having a heck of a time chasing any down and I thought I would be able to get all the components together to load some rounds before a pig hunt I have next month, but I don’t think I’m going to be able...

    Group Outfitter Help

    Not sure if I am going to find a solution to my problem, but I thought I would throw it out here anyway. My work has agreed to pay for a group hunting trip for say 6-8 people. I normally hunt DIY but I am trying to use this “free” opportunity to put some meat in my freezer and get a few friends...

    New Mexico Stream Access Win

    Just saw this - never fished in New Mexico, but this seems like a win for the good guys. https://ravallirepublic.com/news/national/govt-and-politics/new-mexico-supreme-court-finds-stream-rule-unconstitutional/article_c06fa8f5-75dc-52aa-8800-1d032ebb8c7a.html

    Need Press Quick Removal Idea

    I got a new reloading bench for my room but it has drawers across the entire front. I want a way to quickly attach the press to the top of the table when it is in use, then remove it while not in use, with the hope that I can use the whole top of the bench without anything sticking up. I was...
