    Wolf Hunting Video

    Yes, it's Alberta. I thought all non-canadians were required to be guided. Maybe they are. How the wolves act is what's really weird to me. Are they acting like the ones you guys are seeing in the other videos you've recommended; coming out in broad daylight, not leaving the country at the...

    Wolf Hunting Video

    These guys always produce great videos. This one is no exception. I've never hunted wolves but the actions/reactions of these wolves surprise me. It's almost like they've never been hunted. And there's certainly no shortage of them. Does anyone know the circumstances of this hunt?

    Pressure: when is too much and why?

    If I shot my 300 WM with exactly the same body position, holding pressures, etc as I shoot my 223, I don't know where my bullet would hit but I do know I'd need stitches in my eyebrow. I don't think anyone is promoting shooting at unsafe levels or wants to shoot an unsafe load The question is...

    What caused the Rokslide shift to smallest caliber and cartridges?

    What rifle caliber won't work on broadside shots 100% of the time? One you miss with. Accuracy/shot placement matters.

    Do you hunt from home?

    If you shoot from your front door are you required to wear orange? Asking for my wife.

    Let them grow?

    Post 9183 in the 223 for moose, etc thread has a picture of one I took last week. Just a “used to be” average central MT four point mulie. Field dressed @150#. Got him out whole and butchered in my garage. No more than a pound or two lost max. 45# meat. And I don’t mean bones or packaging or...

    Let them grow?

    Actually the primary reason is $$$$. I was pointing out how our “wildlife managers” really aren’t managing our wildlife; not like a farmer manages his cattle or crops. They’re managing their jobs and their job security. < that’s a period.

    Let them grow?

    45 # meat is what you’ll get off a decent buck around here if you don’t ruin any

    Let them grow?

    If the game management experts we employ at the cost of millions of dollars a year determine the herd in a certain area needs bucks of any size killed shouldn’t we kill them ?

    I do a fair bit of wrenching and found this interesting.

    Parasite in elk meat?

    God didn't invent fire just to keep us warm. Kill, cook, eat, repeat.

    Bino Harness Recommendation

    The only thing(s) so far that I don't like about the Marsupial is that when binos out the flap doesn't fold down enough to always stay down (open) and will sometimes snap closed making noise. I've only had it a short time so maybe the hinge part will loosen up and become more flexible over...

    .223 for bear, mountain goat, deer, elk, and moose.

    Grandma did her part this morning. The ol' RSS strikes again. 60 yards. Impact velocity @ 2675 Walking broadside. Did the typical 'buck and kick' at impact, ran about 10 yards then dropped. Pass through No blood trail. Just a big puddle of bloody stuff out his mouth where he laid. Missed ribs...

    Bino Harness Recommendation

    Another vote for marsupial. Forward opening and magnetic closure. Got sick of $1500 binos falling out of the stupid Vortex ones.

    .223 for bear, mountain goat, deer, elk, and moose.

    326 yards. 223 Tikka 18" 77 TMK @ 2,234 impact velocity Made a poor shot. Hit ahead of the shoulder. Couldn't get prone. Was in a bit of an awkward position with the sticks but this bullet gives me a great margin for error ( ;) ) so I sent it. He was bedded broadside. I did not see impact...
