    Garmin Fortrex 701

    Anyone have any experience with one? I want something to piggyback my sig kilo 3000 binos as they only offer a solution to 800 yards. The 5700 kestrel was on my radar but this garmin is considerably cheaper!

    BC Lynx hunt

    I decided to make a decent effort at lynx hunting this year. I am lucky to have them right where I live and even in my yard so it only takes a short drive to my hunting area. This first time I got out this january I had a great day. My foxpro called in two cats within 1.5hrs of each other. I...

    Carinthia defence 4 sleeping bag?

    I have one of these on my radar. Has anyone got any experience with one? I am looking to use it as a bag for jetboat/atv/snowmobile type hunts. It appears fairly compact but fairly well temp rated as well. I currently use a mont bell supper hugger down -9C bag and its a bit cold. Thanks

    Load sling bag!

    What are you guys using to put meat in in your load slings. I always just strap my game bags in my exo 4800 load sling. I recently helped pack out an elk and one of the guys used a stone glacier dry cell bag to put a quarter in. I liked it. I cant find one up in Canada right now. Any other...

    Eberlestock revielle?

    Anybody have any experience with this synthetic bag? It looks like a good option for jetboat/atv type trips. Not ultralight but reasonably sized for its rating. My backpack bag is a bit cold for some of my trips and my heavyweight bags are way too big.

    6.5-300 load data

    So I thought I had a great load worked up with us869 and 140gr accubonds. I was getting great velocity and accuracy. I just recently shot this load in warmer temps and found out how temperature unstable us869 is! My velocity went dangerously high and I lost accuracy! Back to working up a new...

    New weatherby backcountry review

    It was a 6 month wait for this new rifle up in Canada but its here now! I have had it to the range twice now and its working well!. This rifle is a left hand 6.5-300 non titanium. The rifle is a striking specimen, to my eye anyways. I could only adjust the trigger down to about 2.4-2.6lbs. The...

    Loaded rounds wont chamber??

    So i meticulously prepared some 270wsm ammo to get my new browning all weather lefty dialed in. I got to the range and my ammo wouldnt chamber! The bolt wouldnt quite go far enough forward to drop the handle down? I full length sized my cases and trimmed them all to length. After sizing the...

    Using Leica 2000B rangefinder ballistics??

    I bought one of these a few years back and was never able to figure out how to use the ballistic data for things like MOA holdover. I recently gave this unit to my son thinking he would be able to figure it out but no luck. Internet searching has got me nowhere. Any help would be appreciated...

    Winterizing Bigfoot camper

    I have a 2008 bigfoot 9'6" slide in unit with the bathroom on the rear left, just inside the door. I cant locate the damn water pump for the thing. Its somewhere between the bathroom and the dinnete, as I can hear it. I have removed the dinnete seat and cant see it in there though. In past years...

    Joint Pain!!

    At 55 I don't get nearly the exercise I used to. My last coyote hunt in January had me hiking 4-6km a day for the 3 day trip. Two months later I hadn't walked more than a km so I started walking in my rural neighborhood about 3km an evening. I immediately noticed pain in my right hip. After...
