    WTB Woobie

    Howdy everyone. At the risk of posting a WTB ad.... I'm looking to purchase a Kifaru Woobie, color is unimportant to me. Would like to have a woobie in my pack as a last resort to keep my daughter warm during her first hunting season. Please let me know if you have a woobie you would be willing...

    Kit'n up the kid(s)

    Great idea for a thread! I'm in the process of trying to kit out my soon to be 12 year old daughter. She wants to hunt this year and is growing like a weed..... Does anyone have any tips for a decent kid's down puffy? Camo not required but some kind of natural solid would be nice, a hood would...

    223 powders for reduced loads?

    No trail boss either…. Maybe adding weight to the rifle is the way to go as lawnboi suggests? Maybe I’m over thinking it and 223 is fine? Was just looking for the absolute highest odds for fun and success before creeping up to full loads. Still looking for a compact stock so hopefully I’ll...

    223 powders for reduced loads?

    Thanks for the ideas. I have tried a 55 grain bullet with a starting load of imr 3031, while recoil was mild, the blast seemed just as bad as full power loads. Yes, I saw seafire’s blue dot loads. They look perfect…..except for the fact that they require blue dot! Dunno if I want to feed the...

    223 powders for reduced loads?

    Strange request….I’m looking to load up some reduced loads to ease my daughter into shooting a 223. A suppressor would be my first choice but unfortunately isn’t an option. Obviously ear pro will be worn. I’d like to reduce recoil and blast a bit from normal loads. In “normal” times it looks...

    WTB Tikka Compact Stock

    Guy without a shovel on his head.....Douglas..... Highvoltage, yes, I'm planning to cut the "regular" stock if I can't find a compact. I hadn't thought of a slip on pad though, thank you. If possible I'd like to keep the regular stock for once she is big enough.... How about the Monday...

    WTB Tikka Compact Stock

    I'm looking to purchase a Tikka T3x compact stock with the factory spacer. Does anyone have a compact stock they'd like to sell? If it helps, it will be going on a .223 for my 11-year old daughter. New, used, painted, beat up, whatever......we don't care! Cheers! KT

    Freezer cleaning after evacuation

    That pro tip is worth its weight in gold. Obviously won't help me this time but will if this ever happens again. Coin on a frozen glass of water.....simple brilliant "thaw detector". Learn something new every day!

    Freezer cleaning after evacuation

    Our house is in xmas valley. I watched a live news broadcast the night the fire took off and dropped down off echo summit into our neighborhood, our odds were looking slim. Somehow your buddy and his friends got the fire to hop, skip, and jump over our homes. Tell him we say Thank You! Thanks...

    Freezer cleaning after evacuation

    Howdy everyone, my family and I have been evacuated for the Caldor Fire. We received notice two days ago that the power to our home was shut off when the fire was nearing. The good news is that it looks like the fire fighters pulled off a miracle and saved all the homes in our neighborhood...
