    Shipping moose meat

    I set myself up as a known shipper with Alaska Airlines. If I recall correctly it will cost me about .74 cents a pound to ship from Bethel to Portland, OR. The best part is that its cold the entire time and has up to a 72 hour hold in Portland, pretty convenient.

    Renfro/ 60" club

    I did a an all inclusive Caribou drop in 2021 and it worked out well, as a matter of fact I think I might not have brought enough food had I brought my own, we were in the field for an extra 5 days. That being said now in 2024 we are going with Renfro for Moose and we are bringing our own gear...

    6.5 prc reloading

    I'm running R-26, 56.2 grains off the top of my head and getting 3085 from a 25" barrel. It shot 147's really well too but I had issues with them.....

    Looking to buy one of these Rafts for an upcoming hunt. Hoping someone has a lightly used one they want to part with. Thanks in advance.

    EL 10x42 vs SFL 10x40

    I have SFL's and I really like them, more than the EL's I had before them however the EL does handle direct sunlight better, it just magically makes glare non existent. The ergonomics and focus on the SFL makes them the ideal carry bino IMO.

    Swaro Ats 65 vs 80 for guiding

    I've had both at the same time and the 80 is noticeably better when light is a factor. Enough so that even though I have days where I prefer to travel as light as possible I still chose the 80, I eventually sold off the 65.

    Building a Crate

    We are also electing to bring our own camping gear so I will already have a fair amount of cargo to ship. In the end it may not make sense but I'm certainly vetting the option.

    Building a Crate

    Any rough dimensions of the last few you have built would even be helpful. TY

    Building a Crate

    I agree there's voodoo in making a crate ahead of time, hoping to simplify my return home. I figured there's a few people on this forum that probably build several a year and might be able to shed some light on my dimensions in general. I have considered a very worst case scenario of cutting one...

    Building a Crate

    If you were going to build a crate to ship a Moose rack (European style, horns attached) how big would you build based on a generic under 60" bull that would fit 90% of what gets harvested?? Would 30x35x64 be big enough?

    Swarovski SLC vs Zeiss SFL?

    I gave up a pair of 10x50 EL's due to the size and weight and went to SFL 10's. My biggest complaint is they don't cut sun glare nearly as well as the Swaro. Marginally better than my Razors for glare but the fast focus on the Zeiss is stellar.
