    7MM-08 Favorite Factory Ammo?

    Plenty of good choices out there, my 2 favorites are the Barnes 120 grain ttsx and Nosler 140 grain accubonds

    7mm 120 ttsx

    I shoot the factory loaded Barnes in 2 7mm-08’s. Absolutely one of my favorite choices for deer but I don’t think I’d hesitate at something larger with it either.

    Your Purpose-Built Hunting Firearm Arsenal

    I used to have a shotgun, a rifle, and a 45. Unfortunately they were lost in a treacherous river crossing

    Joseph von Benedikt vs Formidilosus

    Then let’s also play the flip side of that coin. What do we call the people who use all those items you listed above to make their hunting better but look down on people who don’t? There’s just as much that contingent here as “Fudds”. The real point is that most of the equipment we argue...

    Northwoods old school whitetail

    Nothing better than using a rifle with some history!

    Joseph von Benedikt vs Formidilosus

    Apparently it’s anybody that doesn’t strictly stick with the Rokslide hunting trends… Prefer 30-06 to 223 - Fudd, not a Tikka - double Fudd Prefer traditional sporter stock instead of a vertical grip - Fudd No suppressor or 6 port brake to spot your shots - Fudd Use a Leupold - Fudd Don’t...

    Northwoods old school whitetail

    Lever action?? I thought those hunts were reserved for a Remington pump or one of the semi autos.

    Barnes TTSX vs TSX out of same gun....

    I still have some of the Federal loaded tsx for my 270, almost exact same point of impact as the Barnes loaded ttsx both 130 grains. Quite a bit of change for the lrx though

    Bino Harnesses

    yep, that works too!

    Bino Harnesses

    Another vote for the Rick Young harness, the only time I use something enclosed is nasty weather. Get by just fine most of the time with the rear lens covers on the binos

    Recommendation for Electronic Ear Plugs for hunting big game (300 rum)

    I don’t shoot anything braked but I do have the xcor’s and have been happy with them so far. Got a screaming deal back in the fall

    Remington 700 stock

    HS precision, they aren’t the lightest option by any means (may actually be a plus for that 300 win) and the ones I’ve used are drop in ready.

    MKC Alternative

    I’d just keep an eye on the classifieds, the MKC knives seem to pop up regularly if that’s what you want. I don’t think you’d be disappointed with one of the Argali knives, Tyto air, Goat knives or a benchmade altitude and you don’t have to deal with that paracord

    What map app to you all use?

    Meat Care Equipment Priorities

    It’ll all be personal preference, for basic butchering you don’t need a stuffer or dehydrator. As you get more advanced it’s nice, also never used a saw for deer Better Knife/Bonesaw - doesn’t have to be pricy, the Victorinox boning knives are awesome Grinder Scale Vac Sealer/Chamber Vac...

    What time do all you geezers get up in the morning?

    Between 4-430 but I have to leave for work by 6. I haven’t used an alarm in years. I like to have time to drink a cup of coffee and breakfast, not just run out the door.

    Taking Equity out of Home OP spoke to me - now, me too!

    From a purely financial advice perspective I think it’d be a pretty easy case to make that if you’re buried in consumer debt (student loans, cars, credit cards) that booking 5 figure hunts may not be the best decision for your future. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with choosing not to...

    Taking Equity out of Home OP spoke to me - now, me too!

    Absolutely no hard feelings for any one choosing that path, I love the thought of this but the realist in me cringes. I’m taking the opposite approach, I’m 35 now and the house will be paid for before 40. After that I should be able to fund retirement and cash flow any reasonable hunt I want...
