    Zip off base layers?

    I have King's. They're the only zip off base layer I have, so nothing else to compare them to. I've only worn them on two western hunts. Both were rifle hunts. Having the ability to put them on and take them off with boots on was nice. I have 10" boots and the 3/4 length doesn't reach my...

    Favorite Dry Bag

    Rockagator dry bags are tough and would probably be perfect for a canoe trip. I like my sea to summit bags for lightweight backpacking, but might not be tough enough for what you're doing.

    .223 for bear, deer, elk and moose.

    2.26" COAL works great in my AR with the 77TMK. Some people say you need small base dies for semi-autos, but I use standard Redding .223 dies and have never had a problem.

    Any good handgun drills?

    I would check the gun ranges in your area and see if they host competitions. My local range has 2 matches each month and it only costs $20 to shoot. The director will set up 3 or 4 stages. There's usually 15-18 shooters. It has been a valuable learning experience for me. I quickly identified...

    Satellite Communicator

    I bought the big Garmin (66i) because I thought it would be nice to have a stand alone gps if something happened to my phone. Although the chances of that happening are very slim. I like the 66i, but if I had to replace it, I'd probably buy the Mini. The gen2 Mini has a much better battery...

    You receive more than you ordered POLL

    I had a similar situation recently. I ordered a sling from Midway. After almost 2 weeks without tracking updates, we assumed UPS had lost the package. Midway sent another and a few days later both slings were delivered by UPS. I called and they sent a shipping label to have one returned...

    Hunting sling - any you really like?

    I'm a fan of the Butler Creek Mountain sling for a simple lightweight option, but using it to assist in shooting isn't convenient because the length adjustment is slow and usually requires both hands. The Blue Force Gear Hunting sling is very similar in size and addresses the problems with the...
