    Alaska tent?

    I just bought a Luna 6 from BPWD to use hunting up here in Alaska. It is basically 10 x 10 tent. How much room do you think you will need for 3 people? Like I mentioned also, the Mr. Buddy propane heater works pretty good for heating tent and drying clothes if need be but one of these days I...

    My new wall tent

    I keep my 10 man arctic tent with liner in a overpac 55 gallon poly drum. The top has one clamp (that requires no tools to remove) and the whole lid comes off. Stronger then a tote and waterproof. You can also get them in different sizes. Another great thing is its strong enough that you can...

    Mailing gear from lower 48 to alaska

    You should look at becoming a member of the 49 Club for flying Alaska Airlines. It's free and your first 2 bags are free also. It might not do you any good coming up but it will going back if flying Alaska Airlines. Just a thought.

    SMD Lunar Duo

    I was going through some of my gear tonight and found a SMD Lunar Duo tent that I forgot about. When I seen it I remembered my buddy giving it to me when he left the state. The tent is brand new and has never been used and has the 2 carbon fiber poles for setting up. My question is, is this a...

    Any Whelen fans out there?

    I have one built on a 98 Mauser action but I have yet to try and work up a load for it. Honestly, I have had it for quiet a few years and never used it. I am a big 35 cal fan.

    416 rigby.......

    I have one in a Encore and it shoots pretty good. You will have recoil but it's managable. Shooting it from a bench sucks!!!! I haven't hunted with it yet though and you can't beat free!!!

    Anyone use BEAR PAW DESIGN Tents? Perhaps the Canopy 2?

    I just recieved my Luna 6 from Bear Paw Design a couple of weeks ago and I'm very pleased with the looks and quality. I read a lot of reviews talking about the sewing of the seams looking crappy but mine looks top notch. I can't wait to use it and test it out in the field. I also bought a couple...

    Need a new pad

    I just picked up a Exped Winterlite LW to use in my floorless tent. It weights a little more but extra thickness should be worth it to me and my bad back. I haven't used it yet so I can't say for sure how it will work or last.

    Brooks Range Boots

    Kevin, My bad and everything is good. I have also thought about trying the boots that have tops that unroll to make hip boots. I just haven't seen any in person to really look at them and see how they fit.

    Brooks Range Boots

    Kevin, I feel your post was directed toward my comment and that is fine, its your opinion. I never said a leather boot would stop you from twisting/breaking a ankle or keep your feet dryer then rubber boots. But there is no rubber boot that I have seen that gives as much ankle support as a good...

    Review: Berger 1st Edition Reload Manual (win one of three!) by Matt Cashell

    I haven't hunted with Berger bullets yet but my boys gave me a 338 RUM for christmas. I will be using the 300 gr Bergers out of it this hunting season if I can get a good load worked up. It should be a beast and great for moose/grizzly.

    Sheep Shooter

    I like the Tikka T3 Lite a lot and I have one in a 300 WSM. It is a tack driver and I have killed a lot of game with it. You will like it a lot.

    Brooks Range Boots

    Bruce, If you are talking about the ones that slip over your hunting boots, they will work for stream crossing but don't expect to do a lot of walking in them and expect them to last. I have a pair of them also. I have used Lacrose Ankle fit knee boots and had good luck with them. It also...

    Sheep Shooter

    The rifle looks nice and should be a good shooter. Here is a picture of my Christmas present from my boys. It was dipped also and is a 338 RUM.
