    McCall, ID Family Trip

    Cascade/Mccall... 9 months of snow and 3 months of poor sledding.

    Joseph von Benedikt vs Formidilosus

    I don't know either of them. The day I crowdfund something is probably the day I'll be declared fiscally incompetent.

    Howa Superlite 308win Field Evaluation

    Me too, and also how the 2nd rifle stacks up. It would be hard to imagine the 2nd one mimicking the first but you never know.

    Howa Superlite 308win Field Evaluation

    Haaa, with an attitude like that, you'll never get a weekend invite to one of those boys club ranches with the open bar, flopping in overstuffed chairs, sipping scotch and get gushed over by a corporate guy who just evicted his mother for a late payment on the house he's renting her. Where's...

    Found Black Gold 26 today.

    Those socks look comfortable.

    Howa Superlite 308win Field Evaluation

    They could always send out 10 rifles for review. If you peruse through the thread, there are some known trigger issues from more than a few end-users. Very true about allowing the company to recover. That said, those companies with highly reliable/functioning guns and good support are...

    Pack Stock For The Dedicated Mule Deer Hunter

    I've done goats and now have a couple mules. Goats can be pretty great assuming they're trained to know they have a job to do. If you just dust them off once a year. they can just lay down on you with a load of meat and refuse to get up. You think they'll just follow if you leave them but all...

    Howa Superlite 308win Field Evaluation

    Ehhhh, feel free not to send me anything free. It's isn't that I'm too busy. I just have my own interests and if a dude gives me something, then I have to talk to him and chances are, he's not my friend anyway so it's more like work than play.

    Howa Superlite 308win Field Evaluation

    I suspect a company that actually believes in their product(s). Cold be, the top dogs at the company are working in an echo chamber, whereby, they feverishly have meetings, change policies and send out memos. In their own minds, they're making improvements but the proof is in the pudding...

    Howa Superlite 308win Field Evaluation

    Nice to see two things... 1. Howa sending out a non-ringer for review. 2. A true review. Other guys just contact the manufacturer, tell them their rifle ain't right and send it back and nobody's the wiser. The manufacturer keeps that guy in mind for more goodies later on. I say let the...

    Howa Superlite 308win Field Evaluation

    Well, you can't be too hard on Howa. The real effort went where it belonged... matching the stock with the best selling tennis shoes that everyone's wearing in the Karaoke Clubs.

    Howa Superlite 308win Field Evaluation

    Hmmm, a 5 lb. rifle that almost doesn't work. I'll take 2 please.

    Scheels coming to Meridian Idaho

    Dropped in today (Wednesday noonish). Pretty busy for a week day. Life-size statues out front of George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, Ronald Reagan and Frederick Douglas... nice. Everything is clean, well stocked and as is most grand openings, overstaffed with newly hired helpful employees...

    Want a canoe, know nothing about them

    Agree about the Prospector. I have a Nova Craft 16' Prospector and it's a do all rig although it's no speed demon on flat water. Carries plenty of cargo and good for solo or double.

    Idaho Wolves, the story no one is talking about.

    "Judges"... as a profession, they've sure made a mess of things.
