    How Do You Brew Your Coffee?

    Have gotten away from the Keurig due to sanitary issues, have gone to Aeropress, pour over and occasional French press. Would like a Chemex but see no difference between that and a V60 pour over funnel.

    What other addiction(s) do you have?

    A big thing it is, there are forums dedicated to pens and stores that sell only writing instruments and paper.

    What other addiction(s) do you have?

    Yes, pens you write with, such as Mont Blanc, Pelikan, Parker etc. Lots of guys collect vintage pens, I tend to stay with new, modern ones. I know a guy who probably has over 500.

    38 special, 357 magnum

    What type of backcountry? Some backcountry has big bears, some has small bears, some none at all. Caliber choice may depend on what you may encounter. Keep in mind that 2 legged predators may be the most dangerous.

    .35 Whelan

    Considering replacing the .30-06 I recently sold with a .35 Whelan. Can anyone recommend a good factory gun in that chambering? That caliber is becoming somewhat difficult to find.

    Sold my .30-06, down to a .270 Winchester and a .45-70. Most of my hunting now is with a handgun, .44 magnum or .454 casull.

    Firearm Cleaning

    I just read the Bore Snake thread. How many of you clean your guns to factory like new every time you shoot them? How often do you clean your bore? I had a gunsmith once tell me that a bore should not be cleaned very often, only when accuracy starts to suffer. Me, I have a hard time storing...

    Trade Thoughts??

    I may trade my S&W Model 29 4" for a Ruger Redhawk 4". My M-29 was made in the early 1980's and S&W recommends only 240 gr. factory loads used in it. With the Ruger I can shoot much heavier loads and am considering trading for that reason alone, but still a bit undecided. The M-29 is in mint...

    What knives do you carry on your hunt?

    I carry when hunting a good pocketknife, a knife suitable for field dressing and a skinning knife but don't carry the skinner into the field usually as most skinning is done back at camp or at home. Most likely everything you would need to use after you have the animal down. Knives, hatchet if...

    .44 Special Deer Load

    Does anyone have a good recommendation for a deer load for the .44 Special.? Yes, I know I can use the .44 Magnum, but I've decided the Special out of my Super Blackhawk will be my choice this year. I figure from a ground, or tree stand and 25 yard self imposed range limit it should work just...

    Off the shelf

    I do regret not buying one of Ruger's M77 rifles back in the day, I think I would have chosen their version of the "Mountain Rifle" in .30-06 or .270.
