    Stock inletting questions

    This may not be the intent of the thread, but I ordered a 700 long action VG2 stock to go on a Christensen Arms Ridgeline 300 WM. Will I have to make any modifications to the inletting to fit the Christensen action and factory hinged floorplate? I know it's a 700 clone but I've heard there are...

    Matt Rinella and Jim Shockey

    I wish someone would say that to Steve once in a while. His constant interrupting makes the podcast tough to listen to.

    lightweight canvas hot tents

    I had 2 cots, stove, and a table set up for cooking. I think we could have easily added a third cot.

    lightweight canvas hot tents

    I ordered the Continental as soon as they came out for sale. It's a great tent. For hunting I only used it in September and it only rained one of the nights I used it, but I had no leaks.

    Christensen Ridgeline replacement stock

    So for those that bought a Mesa Altitude, was it a drop in using the factory Christensen hinged floor plate? Thanks.

    Unfollowing Hunting Social Media Will Make Hunting Better: Matt Rinella Essay

    Not at all. I think hunting celebrities get a lot of feedback from all sorts of people. My issue is with him believing that it's the posts of him with dead critters that is saving lives. After all, that's the issue Matt brings up. He agrees in his article that a lot of good things come out of...

    Unfollowing Hunting Social Media Will Make Hunting Better: Matt Rinella Essay

    And now he is literally saving lives with his social media accounts. If you don't believe it just listen to his Blood Origins podcast. No shortage of arrogance there. It was also obvious he didn't read Matt's article.

    MT Tikka Billet Magazine question

    Does it feed the rounds? I just got one of the 3 round billet magazines this week. I have the Mountain Tactical bottom metal and with 3 rounds in the magazine and the bolt closed, when I insert the magazine it pushes the back of the mag down due to spring pressure of the round on the bolt. When...

    Crispi Idaho coming apart?

    I love the Kenetreks and they are super comfortable, but they do take a while to break in. They are also stiffer than the Idahos. That is all I've worn the last 5 years. The only reason I bought the Idahos this year was I wanted something a little lighter and cooler for early season hunts.

    Crispi Idaho coming apart?

    My Idahos are doing the same thing and I've only worn them about 7 hunting days. Part of the rubber webbing ripped on mine to. I found the receipt and plan to go talk to the place I bought them from. To bad because I really like them. My Kenetrek mountain extremes have 5 years of hunting on...

    Plant closing, might be time to move west. Anyone with power plant connections?

    I worked nuclear power in central NY for 17 years until leaving and moving to eastern Idaho last April (2015) and I couldn't be happier. Since I left they announced that the plant I worked at will shut down in January 2017. I did give up a pension, but I was ready for a change and I love...

    New mystery ranch packs

    It sure looks like the old bags will fit the new frame from those pictures.

    Any New Yorkers ??

    I spent pretty much my whole life in Northern NY, but in April I moved to eastern Idaho. I got hooked on hunting the west and got sick of the travel. Now I can hunt elk every year. If you can get 3 other guys and drive out it's a reasonable trip price wise.
