I'll leave Friday to do some scouting for my western Kansas muzzleloader hunt and I'm pretty excited. That said I have done a limited amount of very early season whitetail hunting (Archery opener Kentucky). Aside from water, shade, and green protein rich feed are there any other things I should...
Bought a Blaser R8 some years ago and this one hasn't been out of the safe since about 2016. Browning A-Bolt II Stainless Stalker II. Bore is perfect, scabbard scratch shown in pics. Includes Talley bases and 61 new brass, 4 of them I probably would not use due to corrosion.
$750
Does anyone have a favorite reduced load for .300 Win Mag? 150 Gr. bullet at about 2800 fps is what I'm looking for. I have a number of 150gr. bullets from my .300 Savage Nosler BT, Hornady SST, TTSX that could work.
Is this brake quiet enough to hunt with? My wife and daughter shoot a Christensen .300 win. mag but need to use the brake in the field. This brake is advertised as being quiet, is it quiet enough to hunt with? The CA brake cannot be used without plugs.
I've hunted New Mexico Antelope guided a couple of times and really only want to hunt them DIY from here out. Saw many antelope driving through southern Colorado last week for an elk hunt in Nm, so wanted to add that as well. Would like access for up to 3 (My Wife, Daughter, Myself), but if we...
I have had a Swarovski STS65 with 20-60 eyepiece since about 2008. It has served well on 2 antelope hunts and a significant amount of summer whitetail glassing here in the Midwest. Due to the heat in both of these scenarios, the mirage is terrible which I know no optic can resolve. My issue is...
I'd like to hunt spring bear in 22' especially with the reduced pressure in Canada for the last 2 seasons. It seems most of the hunts really rev up at the end of May and into June. I'm looking for a good hunt the first week of May, is that possible? Extra points for fishing.
I bought a pair of Crispi boots when I drew a Chugach tag in Feb. They felt amazing but as they broke in I noticed a little pinch in the toe. No knock on them, my feet are 10EE and I got reg. boots because they felt so good. Then there was a Crispi fathers day sale and I got the right size.
Now...
I usually prefer to drive for western hunts but drew a Chugach Mountain goat tag. Is it particularly risky to check my loaded pack? I would like to check my pack and rifle, then carry on a small bag for when in town?
