    I have a 4RT with a trail seat. I’m sure you could import one though.

    IOS 18 is available

    My phone is paid for by my work. I’m sure they would be happy to pay for satellite messaging and be able to get ahold of me 24/7. Garmin wants $0.50 for each message now. I use to have a sat phone but it was like $1100 a year with like 60min/month.

    IOS 18 is available

    Just getting ready to upgrade to a new iPhone 16 through work. This will be great to complement my mini, I keep the minimum plan year-round on my inreach but this year during Sept. my buddy ended up forgetting to update his onX and walked like 3 miles past our camp. We were in the wilderness...

    Evolution Jekyll Experiences

    I just bought some replacement blades for the fixed and built one Jekyll for my quiver which also gave me a spare set of blades form my Hyde. The Hyde did awesome on my bull this year. Arrow went in forward and through the front of his shoulder and exited through his opposite leg. I was...

    Outfitters banning bergers?!

    This has been my experience as well. 280AI, 168gr VLD. The rifle has killed probably 20 elk and deer combined plus a couple antelope and a lot of smaller critters. Almost every animal dropped in its tracks and we haven’t had to track a single animal. Shots from 20-400 yards on big game animals...

    280AI brass question (Nosler vs PO Ackley)

    Interesting, everything I've read says the SAAMI is shorter and I will have a head spacing issue using SAAMI spec brass in my rifle. I have quite a bit of formed brass, I should be able to tell pretty quickly once I receive the new brass.

    280AI brass question (Nosler vs PO Ackley)

    Well, I guess I'm going to find out for myself if there is a headspace issue. I just bought 200 rounds of Peterson brass. I have a bunch of formed brass so I will just measure the new brass vs my formed brass. It sounds like part of the issue is there wasn't consistency when building the...

    280AI brass question (Nosler vs PO Ackley)

    Thanks for the link. The original concerns was the new brass is too short so sizing wouldn’t help in that case. Apparently there was/is a headspace difference and there is too much headspace when using 280AI brass in and original Ackley gun. I was just curious if anyone had tried and if there...

    Group size question 100-600yds (close groups opening up)

    Maybe the wrong term. I was shooting under 6” groups at 600 many 3” groups or less, two of us shooting the same gun during load development also. When I say MOA I’m thinking in my head 1” at 100, 10” at 1000.

    280AI brass question (Nosler vs PO Ackley)

    So when I built/bought my 280AI it had been chambered with the OG Ackley reamer. At the time Nosler had just come out with their version. Anyway back then brass wasn’t really around and I fire formed Norma brass for my rifle. When Nosler brass became readily available there was a bunch of...

    Group size question 100-600yds (close groups opening up)

    I’m just curious if others ever go back and shoot 100yrd groups with their long range gun after load development. When I built the rifle back in 2015 I was told to do all of my load testing at long range so all of my load development was done at 600 yards. A friend has a 1000 yard range which...

    Mods to new Kifaru ARK / Absaroka

    Thanks, I’m taking my sister and brother in law on an elk hunt on the 30th and if she fills her tag its a 2-3 mile pack out. Odds of her filling her tag are high and I’m looking forward to trying it out. I agree, I really don’t like sloppy loose fitting bags, I’ve also never had a regular...
