    How do you keep critters out of your food in the backcountry?

    Ursack Bear-proof containers are required in the Boundary Waters here so I went this route to cut down on bulk and weight. Just tie it to a tree.

    Gear hits and misses

    Cutting down barrel browning abolt questions

    Any change in accuracy from your experience? Ya I wouldn't have bought it had it not been the right price. And the guy was already handloading for it so I got all of his supplies. Was yours also a browning abolt? I can do 1/2 threads with the can but anticipating needing to still cut down...

    Cutting down barrel browning abolt questions

    Thanks for the responses. I started with an internet search, even found someone with data for a 300wsm in 16vs24" barrel that saw 16-20 fps drop/ inch.

    I am squarely in the twin cities area. I have encountered grouse just north of the twin cities but not on any reliable frequency to hunt so I usually head to NE Minnesota to chase them. What region of WI? Have not ventured to WI for any hunting, don't want to pay the NR costs there

    Grouse have moved to the top of my list the past few years, have a lot of fun chasing them with the dog. Too bad I don't live in grouse country though.

    FNG from MN

    Hello, long time lurker and figured I should get more involved in the forum here. I bow and rifle hunt here in MN, as well as bird hunt and fish. Have been applying for some western hunts for a few years now and hunted elk in NM GMU 9 a couple years ago ( saw elk but unsuccessful). Also...

    Williams precision peep on accura lrx

    I have the LRX and it fit with no modification needed. There is a slight gap between the top of the barrel and the front sight but doesn't seem to cause any issues.
