    Help choosing ideal chambering/rifle to shoot lead free projectiles.

    Oh for sure. We’re definitely in custom barrel and wildcat territory. Quite a niche rifle build.

    Help choosing ideal chambering/rifle to shoot lead free projectiles.

    I’ve done a great deal of thinking on this subject and have landed on a few particulars that will shape my next build. 1) A very fast twist barrel for heavy for caliber bullets - since copper bullets don’t have much of a bc, you have to keep them on the heavier side to recoupe some down range...

    Kryptek vellus has changed?

    Hi all, I’ve had a kryptek vellus jacket for a few years now and love it, except for the fact that it’s a little too small. So, I reordered one a size larger and discovered that the silent, high-pile fleece exterior has been swapped for a much shorter and noisier fabric. Has anybody else...

    Idaho/Frank Church Outfitter Questions

    The frank church is a great piece of wilderness. Is it like shooting fish in a barrel? No, definitely not, but there are good deer to be found if you’re ready to break out the glass and put a few miles under your boots. However, those muleys are usually migrating, so you may go days without...

    Treated Down in Ultra Wet Prince William Sound

    Yea I go back and forth as well. Since I’m usually in the same mountains I’m almost always taking the down bag. It’s only the pnw or particularly bad weather forecasts that cause me to grab the synthetic.

    Things You Need For Mule Deer Camp That No One Thinks About

    Candy. Everybody brings all these pre-mixed powerfoods and stuff, but sometimes you just want a quick pop of sugar (basically your body begging for glucose). I bring a pack a swedish fish and some miniature snickers bars. I bring plenty of real protein and fat dense foods as well, but...

    Treated Down in Ultra Wet Prince William Sound

    Oh geeze. That’s one of those factoids that I looked into ages ago when treated down first came out. I remember it being a reputable source. Let me poke around and see if I can track it down.

    Treated Down in Ultra Wet Prince William Sound

    What Weber said……and relative humidity…..rh will rob even treated down of insulating power. I love down, but if I’m heading for a damp area I leave it at home and go synthetic. Look at it like this: you can take treated down and think to yourself “ I can maybe/probably make it work”….or you...

    California compliant 300 Win Mag loads?

    Almost done working up a load for 124 hammer hunters at about 3800 using imr4064. Should be hell on black tails and hogs. Mines a wsm, but your velocities should be similar. Hold pretty much dead on out to 400 or so and pull the trigger.
