I would probably go on guided hunts instead of buying my own land in the west... 500 acres makes it hard unless its surrounded by desert and the only green alfalfa field in miles... -

300 WM powder
I like 4350 for bullet weights 180gr and under and H1000 for anything over .... For a barrel burner load RL 26 and the 168 was pretty impressive.... -

338 250 grain Berger elite hunter
I am on my 3rd 338 Edge.. I have shot the 300 gr. in all of them...I am not real sure If you just consider terminal performance if the Berger gets anything more then the SMK's... The one Lapua I had shot the 285 Amax's the best... And this bullet seemed to open up every single time... But only...- dgarrett

Bear Safety in the Rockies
only in grizzly country where its required... Other wise I would never hang food for black bears.... But also if it will let you sleep better on your sleeping bag and not worry go ahead and do it... Dave -

Ladder test vs velocities
I would work around your 6 and 7 load.... When I use the chrono I am also paying close attention to extreme spread between the loads... If I only get say a 7-15fps spread between 2-3different powder charges... This should theoretically show a node... A lot of .300 wins will show pressure at... -
long range 300win round
215 has a proven track record by many long range shooters and hunters... I shoot it in 300 win. 30-378 and 300 ultra mags...Is almost the only 30 cal bullet I have in my cabinet these days .- dgarrett

300wm ridgeline
Just finished load workup on a 300 ridgeline... I don't know if this was just a bad rifle or ?.... But it took allot to finally make it a 1/2 inch rifle... I know many that have exact same rifle and have no trouble.. I had horizontal stringing that was hard to figure out at least for me... 2... -
Leupold VX-5hd 3-15x44mm
I think the SHV is around 28 oz.... Have you used the other Leupolds???? I am a Nightforce fan.. I have 4 5.5-22x56mm scopes .... I feel if the toughness , comparable glass, and zero stops are all about the same I would go with the nightforce but need some guidance as I have never had a SHV in... -

NPR reports that electric bikes will be classified as non-motorized by NPS and USFS
Sounds like some Senators brother in law has stock in the bike companies... With the amount of roads the Forest Service . BLM, and State Trust land have closed in the last 20 years around here... you might have to walk from the interstate highways soon...I think this is a bad decision... walk in...- dgarrett

Leupold VX-5hd 3-15x44mm
Put these on my last 2 light weight hunting builds... Seem like a very well optioned hunting scope for the $949... Zero Stop... windplex, covered windage turrets... and enough adjustment for the rifles I used them in in talley light weight 20moa rings... I have a 28 nosler light weight build... -
Christensen ridgeline
Like stated above... The Ridgeline is a great value for the $.... I built what is just a Ridgeline but used a tricked out Remington 700 Action to build around... Even with sourcing the parts myself and find $100's in savings I was 6-$700 over what I could of bought a Ridgeline off any store...
