    Seeking Some Advice: 1.5'-2' of Snow, Wolves, and Frustration

    Last Friday we hiked in to camp after pulling in to 1.5'-2' of snow. Camp sits just a little over 8k. We sat in my truck thinking about what to do. Our camp has been pitched since a little before the month started, and we feared the worst. We came to the conclusion that we at least have to...

    First 20 Rounds Down The Barrel!

    Had another great morning with Sawtooth breaking in my new rifle. I used Federal's blue box 130g bullets for the break in process of my Bergara B-14 Timber chambered in 270. Bullets 16, 17, & 18 are shown at 100 yards. We saved the last 2 for some fun. Once again I had the pleasure of...

    WTT Scott's Rhino XT Release for Scott's Silverhorn Release

    I bought this Rhino XT as a back up release, but it's to "stiff" for me. I tried it out today and 2 arrows went over the target. I even tried loosening the spring, even completely taking it out and it still needed to much pressure to let it go. I am looking to trade or sale. $60 shipped...

    Thinking of Changing Sites: Single Pin

    I have a Trophy Ridge React 5 with .019 pins. Love the technology behind it, but recently have been practicing out to 60 yards and my sight picture and the .019 pins block my target (4" circle). I was thinking about maybe going with a single pin, like Trophy Ridge's React One Pro. Same...

    Difference Between Model 70's

    So I'm looking at the differences Model 70 Sportster and Model 70 Super Grade. Besides the stock, everything else appears to be the same. The price difference is making me wonder if I am missing anything different between them. On paper they have the exact specs except for weight. just...

    NightForce SHV w/ MOAR Reticle

    WOW! Had the pleasure of shooting a rifle with this scope mounted on it and it was crystal clear even on max magnification. Scope was 5-20x56. He had another scope which was a Huskemaw 5x20, but to me it was no contest which scope was clearer. Even though that rifle shot 850 yards no...

    Bear: Shot Placement

    So I've been reading that you shouldn't shoot at a bear as you would with a deer or an elk. That when it comes to a bear, your better off aiming for literally a few inches in front of dead center of the bear. Vital organ comparisons show a difference, especially in the lungs. Really...
