    Is Anchorage headed towards another lockdown?

    I live in Anchorage and find it irrational to worry about C19. The sky isn't falling. Sure, it sucks that there is a pandemic but this one is pretty tame. Very few medical systems have been stressed (none in AK), most cases are mild and healthy people cope quite well. The case fatality rate is...

    Alaska Unit 13 A and B Federal Lands Closed to Regular Hunters

    This is a horrible precedent but leaving that aside it's pretty awful anyway. Lots of people use the Paxson/Gulkana corridor for access. It doesn't effect me directly but still pisses me off.

    Unexpected side benefit of "Intermittent Fasting"

    I went from fat at 32 to fit at 42 by doing workouts with mostly heavy compound lifting combined with intermittent fasting. I also transitioned my macros to high protein and low carbohydrate. I agree with most of what was said above but I'll add that now I get a noticeable energy boost from...

    CoronaVirus & The Gym?

    Gyms in Anchorage were closed for a few months and my health and fitness suffered as a result. I went on the last day before closing and the first day of reopening without the least bit of concern about covid 19.

    Rifle- maximum effective range by shooting position?

    Standing/offhand 75-100. Sitting 150-200. Sitting with sticks/bipod or standing with solid rest 200-300. Sitting with solid rest or prone 300-400. In theory I might take a 500 yard shot under ideal circumstances but that hasn't happened yet.

    Does anyone still use creating?

    Been using creatine for years without any perceivable negative effects. Occasionally I'll try another brand but keep going back to Optimum Nutrition.

    2nd big game rifle

    Something for itty bitty critters like a .223 maybe? They are inexpensive to shoot and could provide good practice for shooting bigger critters with your bigger gun. Oops. You said second BIG game rifle. In that case I'll suggest a lever action .45-70.

    States that force you to wear mask

    Masks are mandated inside of buildings here in Anchorage. I find the whole thing disturbing for a number of reasons but I'm entirely befuddled as to why so many people accept the notion that they have any net benefit at all. A piece of cloth does almost nothing to block airborne pathogens as...

    Nosler 180 grain partition experiences

    I've used 160 grain Partitions in my 7mm RM for moose and elk for over 20 years. A 180 grain dose from a 0.308 tablet would work just fine.

    Another Alaskan FNG.....

    Who decided to step out of the shadows. I hunt caribou and Blacktail deer every year. Also hunt Moose and Dall sheep when the stars line up.
