    New 30-06. Thinking about trying copper.

    I have a new 30-06 that I don’t have much ammo for. I’ve never shot copper bullets, so I thought this might be a good time to try some. I will be using this as an all around rifle for elk, deer, and pronghorn. Any recommendations on some factory ammo that I could try? What grain bullet would you...

    Texas Panhandle Wildfires

    I was surprised to read about fires burning this time of year. Sounds like the biggest one is 500,000 acres already.

    Montana vs South Dakota State

    South Dakota State is a 12.5 point favorite. Anyone giving the Griz a chance? I’m hoping they can pull off the upset.

    Maui is burning.

    It’s sad to see Maui burning. There are reports that much of Lahaina has been destroyed. My wife and I just got back from our first ever trip to Hawaii. We stayed near Lahaina. I hope they are able to get everyone out safely. It was easy to see how the dry side of the island would be at risk for...

    Retirement: When would you like to retire? Do you have a plan to get there?

    With my youngest being 5 years away from graduating high school, I’ve been thinking more about retirement lately. I’ve always worked more than one job and never seem to have enough time to hunt and travel. I’d like to do more of both before I’m too old to enjoy it. Curious if anyone has a plan...

    Would you change your state of residency to burn points?

    Point creep in Colorado and wanting to hunt a once in a lifetime elk unit got me to thinking. Would you ever consider moving to burn your points as a resident instead of a non resident? As bad as I want to hunt certain units in Colorado, I don’t think I would move away from Montana to do it.

    Mann Gulch Hike

    Today @Nameless Range and I did a hike that was years in the making. I don’t really remember when I became infatuated with the Mann Gulch Fire, the deadliest fire ever for the smoke jumpers, but it’s been many years. I’ve seen these mountainsides from the river below several times. Today we saw...

    I’m that guy.

    A buddy and I drew the unit ## type 1 tag with an average of 13 points. I had 14 and he had 12. Looks like it was 85% at 13 points, so we feel good about getting the most out of our points. I did a ton of researching and calculating leading up to the draw and we felt like this unit was the one...

    Friday Story Telling Music

    It’s been a while since we did this theme.

    Who does this?

    Why would you post a vehicle for sale and not put how many miles are on it in the ad? Do people buy vehicles without knowing how many miles are on them? Do you think by not mentioning the mileage, you are going to trick someone into buying your high mileage vehicle? I don’t know about you, but...

Here’s my top 4. 1.Bacon 2.Steak (Beef Ribeye) 3.Elk Back Strap 4.Smoked Ribs (pork) Positions 2-4 can be argued, but if you don’t think bacon is #1, I will fight you.

    Remington Model 700 CDL .300 Win Mag For Sale

    I bought this rifle new 3 years ago and hunted with it once. It’s had less than a box of ammo shot through it. It is in excellent condition. It has couple of very light scuff marks which I’ve shown in the pictures. The wood is beautiful as shown in the picture of the stock. It comes with a set...

    Bow press and equipment needed for home archery tinkering

    Does anyone have a setup at home to pretty much do what can be done at the bow shop? We don't have an archery shop in my hometown, so I'm thinking about getting a bow press and some tools. If you have any of this type of equipment, what tools do you have and what manufacturers do you recommend...

    Hiking in Zion National Park

    Can anyone recommend some nice day hikes in Zion? I’ve ordered a book, but I would love to get some first hand information.

    Boots that don’t leak.

    I’ve worn Schnees beartooth boots for several years and love the way they fit. I’ve had 2 pair and I’ve never been able to keep my feet dry. They always leak even after treating them with wax. Can anyone recommend boots that don’t leak? I’m looking to buy a new pair this year.
