    6.5 PRC dies ?

    I’ve used RCBS dies but with my 6.5 PRC I upgraded to the Redding Type S Match die set. Very happy with the results. I really like that die set and will probably stick with it moving forward but have no comparison as that’s the only 6.5 die set I have. Easy load development. Lapua brass as well.

    Wolf lawsuit against US Fish and Wildlife

    There is no difference between one’s actions that hurts us vs someone seeing a billboard or social media and falls pray to the anti/pro wolf. They both are numb to the understanding of nature and what’s at stake

    A man, a wolf, and stupid in public

    Someone like this is no different from the extreme anti hunters. They all feel like they are doing the right thing, high fives, feel part of a movement, or whatever. There’s no enjoyment in animal suffering. Once a dumbass stops being a dumbass

    Hot Sauce Recommendation?

    Tell me more about “Angry Lady”. I bought this some years ago and believe I used it in soup broth and in the wok. I’ve gone down so many rabbit holes I sometimes forget their purpose. How do you typically use it? Thanks for the reminder

    Meat Care

    @Ucsdryder, tell me more about this 10 to 14 day ice bath. I’ve never heard of that. What is it? OP I’d focus on how to get the meat cooled. It takes a lot to get the internal temps down. More than you would imagine. I’ve never been concerned about meat freezing and if I did I’d put them in...

    Really messed up my Tikka bolt.

    Oh man this happened to me while hunting some time ago. I just used a piece of wood but like the shoelace plan. Easy to fix but I remember studying that bolt for a long time🤣

    Need advice , my pup is getting aggressive ..

    OP, I read the first 3 pages and now the last one for reference. I’d recommend going back through those earlier post. Lots of sound knowledge in there. Two year old dog still could be trainable to me if you have a solid program. Beside the 24/7 feeding, one of the biggest things that stood out...

    CO Resdents - See it Through

    While I’m also a NR to CO and get the frustrations we have to face I hope you all in CO have contacted your representatives already. HOWL and many others make this easy. Thank you for those that did. When hunters, trappers, houndsmen,… lose we all lose

    Bought my first Tikka.

    I don’t have that gun/caliber but the first thing I would do is decide what bullet type you want to use and try it or similar ballistic equivalent. If that doesn’t matter to you then buy a variety of ammo and see what shoots the best for your gun. At 200 yards and less my personal preference...

    What's the coolest thing you've done with a bear hide?

    I have one that isn’t rugged and hanging in the gear room. When I was a kid we would stay at a family friends cabin in the Adirondack. He might of cased his, not sure but he had one drooped from nearly every step going up to the top floor. Coolest thing. He also had many rugs as well. Most of...

    Question as to inconsistent OAL on loads

    Good question on measurable differences in variation. I wonder that with certain measurements myself. Measuring to ogive with Barnes and Hornady bullets have always been close, like within .001. I take measurement to polymer tip on few for my notes. This is separate loads for each bullet type. I...

    PSA - Don't be a jackass out there

    Oh you are referring to rock cairns to mark trails. It’s increasing popular for some folks to make your own cairn off trial making it difficult to follow the actual trail. They can be really important when the trail is made of bedrock😁

    PSA - Don't be a jackass out there

    Reminds me of that UT scout leader toppling over a hoodoo in Goblin Valley UT some years ago. Pretty sure he got in trouble for that one.

    The Future of Idaho

    Not sure I understand your language of the “stupid” locals in UT? I was simply saying that UT has a lot more to offer than one would think. I’m sure you know that Why do you want my honey holes?

    The Future of Idaho

    I don’t get this. I lived in UT for six years and killed more elk, ducks, grouse, chukars than any other state I’ve lived in for the same timeframe. While I was there I would hear the same cry from locals that ID was where they hunt while waiting for the glory tag of UT. I don’t feel bad for...

    How does one become a poacher?

    How does someone become a poacher? Product of their environment, out cast, trying to live up to the success they perceive, want to be proud of themselves or others to respect them, find something they can focus on,… The list goes on an on. Poachers are not hunters and we should view them the...

    How does one become a poacher?

    I get it and experience it everyday in my yard. But I also fence in what I don’t want the deer to get to. Have you tried that?
