    Flying with Pot call and Strikers in carry-on?

    I flew last week with one and 2 strikers in a carry on backpack with zero problem. The scope I had in there, now that's a different story. They let it go, but made an "exception". There was a debate about it being a gun part or used as a club.

    Grizzlies in the bighorns

    From the article “The Bighorn Mountain Range is not suitable habitat and the department is not interested in allowing grizzly bears to occupy this area,”....what does that mean? The Cloud Peak wilderness area is nearly 200,000 of prime griz habitat (so they're lying?)...and will the department...

    Bozeman

    They were talking about it on the radio the other day in helena, said the urban sprawl/commuters have spread all the way up to Townsend. Nowhere, it seems, is immune.

    Trespassing? Worth shooting a snowboarder?

    The landowner should run some knee high rope between a few trees that are posted with the no trespassing signs. Problem solved.

    Looking for good cartridge and budget rifle for 14 y/o

    Ruger American, 7mm-08. A bit more forgiving for elk, imho. And will be plenty for deer. The 25-06 recommendation earlier or the 6.5 cm would work too. I'm just not in the 6mm fan base for elk.

    Pics of animals you weren't hunting

    Surprised no one called me out on that one, i was kind of cheating. I was on a walking bridge over the small river that runs thru Estes Park for that pic. The rest were much more wild 😉

    Why are people cutting barrels off

    Velocity isn't quite over rated as it's the most important component to Energy. Energy equals mass (off the bullet in this case) x velocity squared. So losses in velocity have much more impact on energy. Cutting your barrel reduces velocity typically by 50 ft/sec per inch. So by losing that...

    NO SNOW!!!

    Nothing in Central (Helena) montana. It was 60 in great falls yesterday and no snow up to Havre either. I don't think we've had measurable snow since Halloween. It's mostly been in the low 40s for highs or warmer for over a month.

    Help with MOA and bullet drop

    As @axeforce6 said, it's a bit over...1.047 inches at 100 yds to be exact. https://www.nssf.org/shooting/minute-angle-moa/ For all intents and purposes, 1 moa is 1 inch at 100 yds, 2 inches at 200 yds, or to your question, 4 inches at 400 yds.
