    Mode of transportation

    Hello all, I’m looking to get an atv, side side, or motorcycle. I have historically been an atv guy but sold mine to my dad a couple years ago. I was hunting out of state so much that I hadn’t used it in a couple years. I live in north Idaho and a lot of trails are 50” trails. I have looked...

    Short barreled 270 wsm

    So I purchased a new to me kimber Montana in 270 wsm and I’m thinking about getting the barrel shortened to 16-18 inches. I have a suppressor on the way and would like to turn it into a light handy rifle. What kind of velocities would I be looking at? I know wsm calibers like long barrels but...

    Idaho unit 11 early

    Drew the early deer tag this year. Went to school at LCSC and used to spend a ton of time in the unit out of the jet boat and around Craig Mountain area on top. Had the tag 10 years ago and killed a pretty good buck on day 10 of the hunt. I live a few hours north nowadays and would love to...

    New arrows

    Looking to upgrade my arrows and I’ve been shooting fmj’s for 10 years. My brother recommended victory rip tko’s. I’m a 60 yards or less shooter. Any thoughts?

    Odd drop issue

    So last weekend i fired my test loads from my first batch of reloads. Started at 69 grains and worked up to 71 grains which is that max load listed for 270 WSM and retumbo with a 140 accubond. 71 grains was the best load by a slight amount. The range i was at only went to 200 yards and i shot...

    Press messing up tips

    Newbie reloader and I’m trying to reload for my short mag. Slightly condensed loads. My press is coning out all the tips on my accubonds. Is this a common issue? My OAL is coming out spot on also.

    Ultralight rem m7

    Looking at a stock change to lighten rem m7 up. Who makes the lightest stock? Mpi, wildcat, McMillan? It’s in the original wood stock and has been shooting decent so I’ve never takin it off to weigh.

    School me on suppressors!

    I’m thinking about purchasing a suppressor for my 350 legend but want it to also be usable on a couple other rifles (7mm08 and 270wsm). Would it even be worth it because of the large difference in caliber? thanks guys

    350 legend

    Just picked up a 350 legend AR "pistol" a couple weeks ago, ballistics look good for what it is. Anyone ever shot an elk with it? I planned on using it with iron sights as a brush/under the seat in the pick up gun. Ive seen plenty of videos of deer being shot with it but am wondering about...

    270 wsm for CH elk tag

    So originally I was shooting the nosler ammo 140 grain accubond at about 3/4 to 1 1/4 inch groups and I bought some cheaper ammo, federal premium 130 grain trophy copper which improved my groups to 1/2 to 3/4 for a deer hunt last year. Is it worth it to change up to a 150 or 160 grain partition...

    Rem m7

    My rem model 7 youth is going to be my next project rifle, what is the absolute lightest stock i can get for it. I'm going to cut the barrel down to 16 inches, restock it, probably flute the bolt, and put an ultralight 2x7 scope on it. The lightest stock i can find is a MCedge but there has to...

    Handgun for bear

    Time to beat the dead horse i guess. I recently posted about getting a new carry gun for the woods and other in a 45. I live and hunt in grizzly country and have always wanted a 454 cassul carry gun for the woods. Can't afford one so I was looking at a 45 and I already own a 9mm. I grew up...

    Looking at one of these for a new carry weapon, woods and personal. Anyone have any experience with one? Just tired of the full size cz 9mm phantom with 19 in the clip dragging my pants down all the time.

    Dilemma

    So I just put a bunch of work and money into my 270 wsm and then I drew an amazing elk tag. Ideally I would have bought a new 300 or 338 but I no longer have the money to do so and I'm stuck with my 270 wsm. I would like to be proficient to 600 yards and I'm having trouble with bullet...
