    Yeah especially as the classes expand. I was the only student that flew in my class. Nice. Paid a little over a grand for the “managers special” for the week before yours. I bet an uber would be similar or more.

    2024/2025 Trapping thread

    The trapping gods are talking and I'm listening. I’m pulling my foot holds. They have been a chore to keep active with the seasonal changes: - soil texture - root hairs - grass height 3/2: 4/1:

    2024/2025 Trapping thread

    I double paw caught a coon last night. This is the second coon I caught double paw this year and the other one was also stone cold dead at trap check. I wonder if there is something unique to raccoon respiration or circulation that caused death both times.

    Ruger No. 1?

    I have a few. I use them for positional shooting. Just for fun. I have a couple light sporters and a 450 marlin. The factory sights stink. The light sporter (model 1a) come with a rudimentary dovetail sight and a gold bead on a post for a front sight. I install a Skinner sight rear...

    Work Glove Reccomendations

    These are better but harder to find...used to be common at Home Depot. https://www.ebay.com/itm/256813630067?var=0&mkevt=1&mkcid=1&mkrid=711-53200-19255-0&campid=5338590836&toolid=10044&customid=f1c4fc50272d14f86bca9bbb7ca619b6&gclid=f1c4fc50272d14f86bca9bbb7ca619b6

    Lots of stuff was a “lil bit different” in Bangor.

    Shoot2Hunt University

    Yeah, thats right in the regs...one per eyelet. The issue we had in Maine is the gate agents mandated TSA locks and the federal guidelines mandate the use of non tsa locks. The gate agents circled their wagons, gave us the "we work here, we know what we're talking about" story and I had a...

    Flying wasn't a hassle. My class hunted and shot so I had a third bag. That seems pretty expensive but its just not relative to everything else going on. Packing for both activities and flying was strenuous but so worth it. My goal is to bring one bag of stuff and one rifle case in June...

    Getting a barrel fluted

    LRI has worked on all of our barrels that we have had fluted. Last 2 were sent together took a WHILE. LRI will flute with the action on. Is it a "lite" barrel? If so, I might skip it as suggested above since its 16". I have a 19" "lite" barrel that feels a little chunky compared to my...

    XLR 4.0 builds

    9lbs 4.7oz. I wish I had asked them to remove material around the chamber, it didn't occur to me until I got them back.

    XLR 4.0 builds

    Here’s juniors back in action. He chose murder hornet fluting. Look at the maven sulking in the background on the table. He chose the maven for the center dot but the rings are too low for the bolt to clear the gnurled zoom ring. Next time…
