    What are the differences in "Small Rifle Primers" #400 vs #450?

    What are the differences in "Small Rifle Primers" #400 vs #450? Can't remember where I read this, but went looking on InterWebz to find out which primers I would need for the 6.5 Creedmoor I recently purchased for my son. Somewhere in what I read, somebody recommended #450's from CCI. So ok...

    Coyote Katsu!

    Welp, when I took a yote 11-25-2023... my 16yo son asked me if we could take some of the meat home, so he could try to cook it. So that day, I leaned in nice and close, and used my sniffer (since Daddy's the cook at home) and since this particular yote didn't smell nasty like some can... I...

First stand w Baby Jack, and other Jack sounds, no takers yet. Moved more inside this Juniper forest to anothing opening... did various vocalizations...

    How much does this Bear weigh? Boar or Sow?

    I'm 220 Lbs, compare the pic with me in it to the one with the Bear in it. I'm guessing 275-300Lbs range? I don't have much experience with Bears. How much do you all think this Bear weighs? Boar or Sow? (I'm thinking Boar, since he looks more upper body dominant to me)

    When Dove Hunting peters out due to High Winds....

    Welp, strong winds (25mph) came in about 10:30am, so the Doves hunkered down. Only got 8 by then. Should've been more, but user error, and sometimes branches deflecting shot pellets got in the way. Thinking ahead, brought the FoxPro X24, since I've taken yotes there before. Didn't take long...

    Been wanting a .44 Mag pistol to try hunting with. If intended game is only MuleDeer and BlackBear here in SoCal, and I was going to purchase a Ruger Super Redhawk, (in either 7.5" or 9.5"). .44 Mag should be fine right? What real-world reasons would there be for instead going for one of the...

    Which Protein Bars do you use that DON'T Invoke Acid-Reflux???

    ATM I've been using MET-Rx Big 100 bars. Because there were a couple flavors of them which didn't turn into a complete melty-mess whenever I'm in high heat. But... unfortunately they seem to cause me pretty strong Acid-Reflux later-on with the pack back on and cinched on my guts. So, figured...

    Low Profile seat option with back support, AND it was on Sale!

    Dig it! REI. Helinox refers to this as a "Festival Seat" 2Lbs, and those feet are a decent size... Gonna give this a try. The Predator seat cushion is "Ok" for the 30min or so of predator calling on a single sit. But deer sits go significantly longer for me and with the various disc bulges...
