    RMEF Expanding Public Land Access

    The March/April 2024 "Bugle" showed up today and I was reading an article where RMEF purchased a conservation easement on 1.230 acres near Arlington, WY. The article indicates that, through this process, RMEF negotiated public access for the hunting season (8/1-11/30) through the private...

    Airline Travel with TSA locks - Experiences

    For an upcoming trip I am considering flying with a couple of shotguns in an SKB bow case. It only has TSA locks with no place to put padlocks. I am interested in experiences of people who did this and whether there was any pushback from either airline personnel or TSA agents?

    Rifle Issue/Need Help Trouble-Shooting

    Got some new Nosler brass so went to the range today to shoot a few groups and check velocity/POI of my go-to load developed in the new brass versus the Hornady I developed the load with. Shot 5 shots loaded in my old brass, which was dead center on the backer for windage. The problem is the...

    The Social Dilema/Netflix Movie

    My wife and I watched this movie tonight and it shed some light on social media's contribution to a variety of social ills, from youth suicide to political division. I thought it was very interesting and wanted to get the thoughts of RS members who have watched it. I've only used Facebook a...

    Tucson, AZ

    My wife and I are pondering Tucson as a retirement destination and I was wondering if any locals have some insight they would like to share - the good, the bad, and the ugly? We are specifically looking at the Catalina Foothills area. I've spent a lot of time in Phoenix and have and been through...

    .243 Light Load Question

    In an effort to find a hunting load for my recoil-sensitive 12 y/o daugher, I loaded up some 71 gr. Hammer Sledge Hammers over 34 grs. of H4895 (Winchester brass, CCI LRM primers).

Other than maybe Spokane, Couer d'Alene, and Sandpoint, are there any other places we should check out along the way? We will have a truck full of gear, so it may...

    Tikka/Question on Shortening Stock

    My daughter is in need of a rifle, and we have a very limited choice in that she is a leftie and needs a ~12" LOP (11 yo, 4'6"). The guns shop's recommendation is a Tikka w/ a wood stock to make it easier to cut down. Does anyone have a sense of whether the synthetic stock is fairly easy to...

    Need a new travel backpack

    I need to buy a new travel backpack to replace my Kifaru Late Season (3,400 c.i.). I want an internal frame so Kifaru no longer sells anything that works. Rather than just go to REI and buy a comparably sized Osprey, I wanted to see if anyone could recommend a similar pack made by a...

    Left Handed Youth Rifle

    I am going to buy my daughter a bolt action .22 rifle for her 10th birthday and have not been able to identify many options. At this point I am honing in on the Savage Mark II GLY, but I would welcome any advice on other makes/models I should be looking at. Thanks

    Adapting standard belt holster to Kifaru belt PALS webbing

    I was getting ready to go on a trip recently and realized my sidearm's holster (designed to fit on 2" belt) was not compatible with the PALS webbing on my newer Kifaru frame belt as it was with the single strap on my G1. After a quick search on Rokslide I saw a device called a Blackhawk...

    FS: Optilogic Micro II Rangefinder

    This is for a used Optilogic Micro II rangefinder. I bought it to use on a sheep hunt and have been using another RF since. This is a nice unit for the ounce-counting bowhunter, at 4 oz. w/ battery and 0x magnification. The unit is in good shape with a couple of very small blemishes in the...

    Kimber Montana or Tikka T3 Lite Stainless?

    First off, let me state I am not much of a rifle guy, but I will be buying one in the near future just in case I need it. If cost was not part of the decision, which rifle would you go for and why? I am looking for a lightweight, accurate (MOA) rifle for critters up to perhaps elk-size, won't...
