    Fire starting

    Weber fire cubes. $5 for 24 at home depot or BBQ stores. Never let me down yet. You will need somehting to get them going obvisouly but after that they burn for 5 minutes or so. Enough to even get slightly damp wood going. Weigh next to nothing, waterproof. Don't leave anywhere with out them...

    Realistic MOA Expectations vs Marketing

    -Probably every hunting rifle with match ammo could shoot a 1 moa group at 100yds, or at least most of them -Every hunter can't, most of them can't The biggest factor in the entire argument is the shooter. Most people cant shoot MOA, the guns can, people cant. You have an outdoor range and more...

    Ollin digiscope products 20% off

    I run the Magview as well and will continue for one main reason, not phone case specific. I will not buy a product that forces me to buy a phone case every time I change my phone. I don't care how easy it is. Phone magnets are cheap, anyone I'm hunting with can use it as well as long as they...

    N565/570 a legitimate RL26 replacement?

    I will in Canada and it has been even more challenging to get any of the high demand RL powders for quite some time. A local Ma and Pa dealer that I get a fair amount of my components from, mentioned not to expect anything from the RL line up till at least after the US election. Still didn't...

    130 Grain Class 6.5 Creedmoor Bullets

    Developing a hunting round with the 130 VLD-H right now. Looking forward to shooting some critters with it. Heard good things about Berger bullets, usually shoot Nosler.

    6.8 vs 7SAUM

    Many more options that Hornady and Lapua. Bullet options from Berger, Nosler, and Sierra ranging from 165-175. I would shoot any 3 of these bullets before putting a Hornady bullet down the barrel of my gun. Lots of options for 130-160gn class of bullets from all the players out there. Brass...

    AKU Boots

    Not insulated for sure. They are waterproof with a Goretex lining. This will usually make boots run a little hot but a trade off to keeping them dry. Spent a hour walking around the wood with the kids yesterday. Felt good but will need some break in time. Happy with the purchase though. Was...

    AKU Boots

    Mine arrived yesterday as well. I'm from BC, canada, so these will be more of my day to day hikers than my hunting boots. First impressions were nice, excited to take them out on the trail and see how they feel. A tad tight on one foot, but a little stretch should solve that problem.

    AKU Boots

    AKU Boots

    I have the Aku superlaps. I really like them. Like them enough I may look at Selvetica for the clear our price their offering.

    Meindl sales?

    Very rare. Their most popular boots rarely go on sale, mainly only the accessories and free shipping.

    Kuiu piece you can’t hunt without?

    I always get a kick from people that are so quick to bash Kuiu or any other of the higher end camo brands. Do you need them? of course not, most people will say you don't even need camo, solids would work just fine. A few points though: Quality - this isn't even an argument. Anything built by...

    Cool Bot walk in meat cooler, Tips & Tricks appreciated.

    Cold air travels down which will help here but a 10' ceiling is quite high unless hanging the entire animal. I would personally think about framing a ceiling in and keeping it at about 8'. Another thing I would do, if this was a long term solution to a problem, I would contact my local...

    “Backfire” hunting challenge fail

    I don't know if its as far away as an apple to an orange but more like a red apple to a green apple. -Pressure is only what you put on yourself. -a mat may by one thing but the challenge was based on hunting situations. Most people have a backpack and plenty use it as a rest. Don't remember...
