They are not cheap but after gutting, quartering and carcass trimming three deer just recently, with the same Montana Knife Company knife and not resharpening I would recommend what they make.
I am all for weight savings, don't get me wrong but i'm starting to be convinced that the folks cutting half the tooth brush handle and skimping on TP are the same ones who are carrying the lower leg/hooves out of the woods.
As for the topic, I have used a few to include a Gerber and Kershaw.
Once the snow shows up and the ice starts, my older RZR 800 has chains on all 4's for the duration of the winter. Pretty much needed for plowing when things get icy and really helps when you get off the beaten path.
Found a site just the other day that had RL-22, which I have been looking for. When you added up the price, hazmat and shipping, came out to right at $60/lb. I said no thanks at that price. $75/lb for the RL-26, discussed here, is just insane.
That is my current go to bullet with my 7mm. 3037 fps with 63gr of RL-22. Very accurate out of my gun. Found this load to be very consistent and accurate so haven't really pushed for more speed.
Wouldn't call it a peeping tom situation but kind of. Had a mule deer tag here in the Bitterroot valley 2 seasons ago, and for those familiar with the area there is everything from little 1 acre homes/yards, larger farms/ranches and everything in between. Almost all private. I was all over the...
I take the time to trim it all up and save for grinding. I like to have plenty of meat around for grinding, not only for burger but I make brats, texas style hot links, breakfast sausage, Italian sausage, bulk kielbasa, summer sausage, etc.
I am all for in person class and field day but what I would really love to see is legit funding go to FWP so they can hire paid positions for hunter education/safety, to run classes, seminars, safety training, etc., all year long and quit relying on volunteers. Everyone that complains about...
You didn't miss read it and knowing the internet for what it is, i knew someone would call that out as soon as i decided to post a picture, lol. That tag was hand written by the wife who was running the garage sale, when she marked it to sell on the behalf of her husband. There was also some...
Went to a garage sale this past summer to look at a chainsaw, ended up coming home with an unopened can of Hercules Reloader 22 powder. My 7mm likes the current Alliant reloader 22 so am hopeful the old Hercules and newer RL-22 are close to the same. Will find out at some point.
Someone already posted a link above to the FWP public comments and near as I could tell, going through the ones that were published in the document, every one related to the 313 topic was in support. Makes me wonder how/what comments get published to that document.
Take it for what it's worth. My 7mm, 26 inch 1-9 barrel shoots the 150 ttsx and 160 accubond, well. Not factory ammo, hand loads. Going to try hammers once I get closer to running out of the bullets I have.
Had two tears and the biceps done on my left shoulder a year ago this coming week. If I remember right I was first able to shoot my bow in July/August and those first attempts were brutal, just no strength in that bow arm/shoulder. Ended up in decent shooting shape by the season but not to the...
