    WTB WTB - Norma brand 300 SAUM brass

    I have a potential opportunity to go on a hunt that requires the head stamp of your brass to match what the rifle is chambered in. I’ve been expanding necks on 7SAUM brass up to this point. Not interested in other brands of brass. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Pro

    Boot selection is driving me crazy

    Selecting a pair of boots for my Eastern Wyoming pronghorn hunt is going to drive me to drinking. I’ve never hunted out west and I’ve never owned a pair of “high end” boots. That said I’ve tried on the following: * Crispi Briksdale Pro GTX - Way too stiff. Not comfortable to me in the 15...
