    Colorado Plains MZ hunt

    Drew a Colorado GMU 137 muzzleloader deer tag (good for GMU 137,138,143,144) Looking for a trespass hunt or possibly a guide. Looks like very little public land and the guy I was supposed to go with did not draw, I'm sure he'll give me what info he has but the more info I have the better...

    209 capper/decapper

    The three sided one is the only one I've found to work, I use it to put the cap into the bolt but once fired I just pull the bolt back and tip the gun and the spent cap fall right out no problem.

    Rest while hunting

    Ultra Lite Recoil Pad Removal

    Not really sure if it was "worth" the effort but I'm a big guy, 6'4" and with my scope as far forward as it can be my eye relief wasn't even close. So to get a longer length of pull I need to put in a spacer or different recoil pad. Once I committed to it I had to do whatever was necessary to...

    Ultra Lite Recoil Pad Removal

    Well I have a follow to my initial post, first Locktite 401 is some awesome stuff ! I scored the stock all the way around the recoil pad, then I froze the stock as recommended, carefully supported and lightly tapped (then heavily tapped) the spacer and recoil pad and it did NOT pop off. I did...

    Ultra Lite Recoil Pad Removal

    Update; Just received a email from Bell & Carlson, Our pads are both glued and screwed on. To remove the screws find the slits in the pads approximately 1" from either end of the pad. Use a phillips head screw driver to remove the screws. The pad is also glued on with Loctite 401. Some customers...

    8X or 10X for CO Elk hunt

    Since you want to use them back home too, I'd definitely go with the 8x. I'm from the East coast and just bring my regular binos out for the 7-10 days you're there.
