    Does anybody have a good shotgun lubricant for very cold temperatures?

    My favorite for shotguns is G96, supposedly tested to -50 degrees and it is excellent as a rust preventative as well. https://g96.com/product/gun-treatment/

    Camping distance from Elk

    As others have said, it depends on how they use the area. Last season, I camped mid-mountain, which was a good 1200ft below where they were bedded, thinking that there was no way they would pass up all the good feed in the area to go all the way to the bottom each night to feed. I was wrong...

    IME archery is usually more crowded than rifle.

    Also @LRI_Chad is on here. He doesn't comment often, but I am sure he will be happy to see these rave reviews. He was more than helpful with my build.

    LRI Longrifles, Inc.

    Just had a .300wm rebarrel and a stock inletted by LRI. While it was a challenging build based on expectations vs mag length restrictions and it had a bit more jump than I wanted, it shoots lights out so they haven’t heard any complaints from me. Also props to them for having the intestinal...

    6.8mm rem SPC

    I bought an LWRC almost 15 years ago and had enough reloaded ammo to last a while but I just went to buy components for the first time in at least a decade and I was amazed at how sparse it was from an availability perspective. I have plenty of 95gr Barnes already loaded but am switching to...

    Late onset agriculture

    Joel Salatin is the GOAT. Greg Judy is great too. Salatin says Alan Nation was his mentor. Dont forget Gabe Brown. My side hustle would be contract tractor work, would probably run some sheep and pigs too, but just to break even to have mine for free.

    Late onset agriculture

    This and here is why: 7 years ago (I was 40 at the time) I started working remotely in the software industry and went through a period of depression because I actually enjoyed going into an office and conversing with people (mostly water cooler talk and banter). I needed a physical outlet and...

    If we are throwing camo pattern ideas around I think Relv Moab is the best out there at the moment. In fact @Unknown Munitions if you have the capacity to add it as an option, I have a VG2 to send you as soon as the rifle season ends here in TX. Its a topo of Moab, UT in browns, green & black.

    The Shoot2hunt Podcast

    https://www.lightningstrikefirestarter.com/ Personally, I don't like flint and steel no matter how effective they might be (and this looks to be a good one) I prefer these, similar concept (can be put under water on fire and not go out) but I can be more precise on where the flame lands and it...

    Nightforce zerostop issue

    They specifically design them that way in case you need to dial below zero in a given scenario. Here are the instructions for the SHV (if you don't want the negative travel try starting over and being sure that the turret cap is pushed down firmly before torquing it back): And here are the...

    Deer only coming to corn at night time what to do to change that

    I live on ~8 acres and all the deer around here have become more nocturnal than they usually are...probably due to the extreme heat we had this summer, but they are nocturnal in general. Just wait until the rut fires up, they will be moving 24/7. Just saw some early rutting action this week and...
