    Question about bear and .357

    Just for perspective. I killed a black bear with my 9mm and cheap remanufactured Remington 115 JHP. One shot to the chest, and the bear ran 30 yards and pilled up against a tree. Personally I wouldn't hesitate to use a .357 especially out of a rifle.

    Do you regret getting your suppressor?

    The only thing I regret so far is the damn thing not being here yet ;), 7 months and counting.

    I totally read that as fly fishing. Thanks for clarifying that. That sounds like a lot of fun.

    That would be awesome. There are 4 of us currently. We would definitely have to learn to fly fish first ;). We have looked hard at Pyramid Lake in Nevada as an option once we learn to fly fish.

    Out of State Hunting / Fishing Adventures with Buddies

    Is the Boundary waters in Minnesota? Do you remember what outfitter you used? I am sure I could convince everyone to live on hotdogs and bologna sandwiches for a week. I think we all realize we are there for the adventure and not the food.

    Out of State Hunting / Fishing Adventures with Buddies

    I have a group of close friends that I have known for about a decade now. We routinely get together in our home state of Utah to shoot, hunt, and fish. I would really like to plan a group trip out of state. I don't think any of us would care if it's hunting or fishing. I would like to keep...

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

    I have yet to shoot it because I am waiting on a suppressor, but I had a 1/8" .223 barrel rechambered to 22 Creedmoor after reading various posts from @Formidilosus. It sounds like multiple individuals in his group have rechambered the 1/8's without issue.

    How far can you shoot off a backpack?

    So here is my question.....When do you guys open up a "Rokslide" Shooting School? I would pay pretty money, and gladly work the OT to get it, to get hands on learning from these guys you have access to learn from.

    How to use a mil/mil scope-reticle, turrets and proper usage

    So I used what @Formidilosus recommended. I didn't round up on my second numbers, I just used the second number at face value. Yardage My Estimate Strelok 385 1.3 Mils 1.3 Mils 425 1.7 Mils 1.6 Mils 583 2.8 Mils 2.8 Mils 645 3.4 Mils 3.3 Mils 363 1.1 Mils 1.2 Mils 487 2.3 Mils...

    How to use a mil/mil scope-reticle, turrets and proper usage

    Also with wind brackets. If I have a 4mph cartridge, do I half my corrections values for a 2mph wind, 1.5X it for a 6mph wind, and 2x it for a 8mph wind? Just wondering if it works that way?

    How to use a mil/mil scope-reticle, turrets and proper usage

    So I want to make sure I am thinking along the correct lines with this Quick Drop stuff. I ran my ballistics app using a 108 ELDM @ 3000 fps. To get my estimated "quick drops" to match dead on with the calculator, or to be within .1 mil, I had to deduct higher values from the base as my...

    How to use a mil/mil scope-reticle, turrets and proper usage

    @Formidilosus would you have an article or a Rokslide thread you could recommend for learning to use mil scopes for “quick drop and wind brackets“? I have read both referenced on here multiple times and I would like to learn how to do both.

    Hung up on bino power: 8 vs 10

    I picked up an 8x pair of bino's on sale a few years ago. I have never felt like I needed more. That being said I use a spotter also.

    Sako S20 First 6 shots

    I have looked at them dozens of times, I just don't know about cutting the fluted barrel down so I can run a suppressor. Anyone have any experience with cutting down a fluted barrel to run a suppressor?
