    Did you get out and check your zero?

    Recently missed a caribou on a hunt of a lifetime. What caused the miss?

    A 400 yard shot isn’t that far…definitely not far enough for atmospheric conditions to make a difference. Had to be either shooter error or mechanical failure. Coming from somebody who used to own some expensive scope that had massive zero shifts from travel alone, I am leaning towards the scope.

    Recently missed a caribou on a hunt of a lifetime. What caused the miss?

    I am guessing your scope lost zero. Thats why people are going crazy about these drop tests. Anything mechanical can fail, but using a drop tested scope can be the difference. I don’t think Leica is particularly known for their toughness.

    Thoughts on open sights for moose hunt?

    A couple years ago we went up to AK and shot two moose under 100 yards on a DIY hunt with our long range rifles. Going back in a couple weeks and trying to decide which rifle I want to take. I was gifted an older Marlin 444 that is in excellent condition by a widow I go to church with. Part...

    Rifle Idea

    The premiers are a completely different rifle than the B-14s. Premiers are made in Georgia. The imports are garbage. I have an approach 6CM that will outshoot any custom.

    Tall people sleeping bags?

    How tall and what is your budget? I am 6’5” 260lbs - “huscular” build. It took me a few years but have found some I really like. If weight is a consideration I really like Nemo’s hydrophobic down bags. I have a stalker, kaiyu, and disco. They all are very comfortable. If weight isnt an...

    First Western Rifle

    I would go 6 CM, 6.5 CM, or 308. All of these are capable of taking big bull elk way past 500 yards. I own all three plus a 6.5 PRC and 280 AI. I was big into magnums and owned 300 rum, 325wsm, 300 wsm, 300 wby, a few 7mm RMs etc. i will never own another magnum cartridge. They just...

    Chest waders vs wading pants- Alaska moose hunt

    I went and did the same thing two years ago and never even put my waders on - just used rubber boots the entire two weeks. I am going again this year and will once again throw my waders in, but will only use them if it is pouring rain all day. They suck to hike in.

    Cornerstone Gun Dog Academy experience?

    Ecollars are a must. I conditioned my GSP at 6months old. He is trained on vibration for communication. Two vibrations means “here”, one long vibration means “hey, I need your attention”. Very rarely do I have to zap him. The benefit of an ecollar is your can give immediate corrections...

    Rifle Help - couldn’t get on paper at 25 yards

    Since they are one of the few companies that offer an accuracy guarantee, you can’t lose with them.
