    Looking for some new Bars/Mid day snacks to replace Clif bars. What's your fave?

    Clif bars (crunchy PB is my go to) have always been a staple for my mid-day foods on western hunts, but after realizing they're packed full of soy products I'm trying to find some better alternatives. Looking for something that is similar in macros/calories and is durable, but with better...

    What Happened to Stowaway Gourmet??

    I literally just learned about these guys today from a co-worker and their website says they are 2 weeks out for orders. Has anything changed in the past month or are they still super slow? I'd love to try some for my upcoming trip.

    WTS 35 Whelen brass, new production, old stock, Remington

    Found a deal on a case of new Remington headstamp 35 Whelen brass, but it is way more than I need. Looking to sell off about 300 pieces or so. If you're a 35 Whelen shooter, you know as well as I do there hasn't been any new brass readily available on the market for some time now, so this is a...

    Hey all, So I am almost done with my 338 RCM build that I have wanted to do for a while. 16.5" barrel and fast twist. Looking to shoot 250 grain bullets just because there are no economical target bullets I'm aware of that are not 250 or 300 grains. Likely going to shoot 250 gr CEB Lazers...

    Iron Will single bevel Buff 200 true weight

    I'm putting together some 650gr Grizzly Stik arrows and am wondering if the Iron Will single bevel Buff (no bleeder blades) 200 grain runs a true 200 grains or if they tend to be a few grains over or a few grains under. I'm trying to get them to be as close as possible to 650 and match with my...

    Legacy International Pointer SA shotguns - good or junk?

    What's up guys. Been MIA for a while, but I'm back with this quandary. I'm looking to get a dedicated waterfowl shotgun this year...sick and tired of protecting my red dot on my deer/turkey set up i have on my 870 in the blind from getting wet and banged around. I actually really like wing...

    I made an oopsy

    So yesterday I converted about 85 new 223 cases to 300 Blackout. Then to get the case lube off I washed them and stuck them in the oven at 170F on a baking sheet to dry thoroughly. Then I forgot about them....for something like 8-9 hours. At that low temp, I'm fairly confident there is no...

    Which barrel for a Mauser action?

    If you are looking to reduce recoil, does it have to be 7x57? Brownells sells short chambered mauser barrels for like $90 that are excellent in my experience. I think they are shaw. They have em in 6.5x55 and 25-06, which will both be lighter kicking in your rifle than 7Mauser

    Is there anything new and exciting coming out this year?

    8.6 Creedmoor...yes it's real. Also not that it is coming out this year, but I recently heard about Hammer's Absolute Hammer bullets. They are super interesting to me. Probably going to order some 178s for my 30-06 and 129s for my 260 AI

    .223 for bear, deer, elk and moose.

    I don't let any meth monkeys get anywhere near my guns. And yeah I got the 1:7. I'm all about that fast twist life. Just ordered me some 62 grain Barnes TTSX on Midway...yes they have em so go snatch em up.

    .223 for bear, deer, elk and moose.

    What are you guys shooting mostly? ARs or bolt guns? I had another thread asking about using tipped bullets in an AR that asked whether the tips sustained damage riding up the feed ramp in an AR that would cause them to break or or distort to where they effect BC and accuracy. Is that...

    Barnes TTSX vs TSX in 5.56 AR

    Man, I read that whole thread and it was quite interesting. Performance of that 77 TMK on large game is impressive. Unfortunately, most of the conversation in that thread centered around bolt guns, and I'm wanting to know about tips functioning in an AR. I think that lead fragmenting bullets...

    .223 for bear, deer, elk and moose.

    Wow, I gotta admit I wrote this thread off because I thought it was sure to be a lot of Fudds poo-pooing the 223 as a big game round (which a lot of it is). BUT....Read it all from page 1 and learned a lot. I never had doubt that the 223 could kill big game, but I have been pretty impressed...

    Barnes TTSX vs TSX in 5.56 AR

    huh. Admittedly I wrote that thread off when it included elk, bear, and moose. I figured it'd just be a bunch of people arguing against one guy who thinks its a good idea to use a 223 on large game. I'll give it a look though.
