    So, you went smaller caliber, but not down to .223…

    30-06 to 6.5 cm for me. Could've stuck with the 06 and been happy enough, but I do enjoy less recoil. The wife's rifle/my backup rifle is a 18" barreled 243 that is a real pleasure to shoot. I do not feel undergunned with either hunting anything in Colorado.

    Extra wide sleeping bag… am I crazy?

    That's exactly my concern. The weight is pretty reasonably, but 70 inches is pretty huge.

    Extra wide sleeping bag… am I crazy?

    I went to REI and laid down in a “wide” model Magma 15 bag. It has a 70 inch girth at the shoulders. It seals up really well at the top though with a nice baffle and the hood is really comfortable. I’m 5’10” and 190 lbs… so I could lose a few lbs, but I’m not sure I need such a big bag. That...

    2024 Mystery Ranch Hunting Packs

    Yeah, I felt the same way about it honestly. When I've tried the five piece belt, it feels awesome with little to no weight. But with decent weight in it, the two wings coming off of the lumbar pad dug into my back. It was downright painful. I agree that the podcast was less than impressive...

    Japan made Burris Signature HD latest model selling for $207 on Amazon

    Frankly guys I'd regard this thread with some caution. A lot of hype from one user. I have owned both these and the Athlon Midas in 8x42 and they are very similar, with a definite edge to the Midas in basically every category.

    Interesting 4/20 marketing by Simms

    Yeah, I guess I'm mad/triggered. Weed sucks and weed culture sucks. If it's part of your river culture then your river culture sucks. I wish we could re-criminalize it to be honest. Don't forget that it's still illegal on federal lands and you can in fact be cited for it even in states where...

    2024 Mystery Ranch Hunting Packs

    I listened to an episode of the Randy Newberg podcast with some Mystery Ranch guys on it talking about the new Metcalf packs. They basically said the 300d fabric these days is as good as 500d used to be. Who knows. Their explanation for the switch back to the 3 piece waist belt was interesting...
