    Winchester Model 70 Super Shadow

    I bought a used Super Shadow 300 WSM at a local gun shop with the original Leupold VX 1 scope three years ago. Scope rings were junk because they were slightly loose causing the scope to move every shot. I wasted a lot of expensive ammo before figuring it out. I plan on replacing the scope for...

    Cookware

    Sorry to hear that your wife is battling cancer, I pray she can overcome this. I just bought a restored cast iron skillet and seasoned it and have made eggs the past couple days with very easy clean up. I cooked the eggs in fat from ground beef with little bits of meat my wife cooked so it was...

    Cookware

    Just found a restored Griswold #9 cast iron skillet and a Griswold #9 dutch oven with lid at my favorite antique store. I'm seasoning them both now. Looking forward to cooking with them tomorrow.

    I like that because you can use it for roast too.

    Cookware

    I have been using a generous amount of beef tallow for my fried eggs and sometimes bacon grease. What have you found that helps or prevents eggs from sticking with stainless steel? I have an old cast iron pan I use now but it's warped but well seasoned so no sticking. I just wish it was...

Or any other suggestions, cast iron, etc. from someone that IS NOT non-stick. I'm looking at cooking mostly beef in a frying pan and roast in a...

    What hunter stage are you in?

    I don't hunt for racks or hides. I usually only have one season to hunt so I hunt to fill the freezer and to enjoy the priceless time and meal with family and friends. None of them are impressed with a trophy. I usually get an either sex tag for elk but will shoot a cow if I see one first.

    WE WON!

    It's interesting that the article even states that they don't normally see them in Greeley, so, to me, that seems like there's so many they are being pushed into new territory.

    Antelope Deaths in Colorado

    Sad to see the ripple effect of the heavy snow last week in Colorado with so many antelope being hit. I wonder if any of the meat was salvaged? https://www.kktv.com/2024/11/12/warning-graphic-cpw-reporting-more-than-100-pronghorn-have-died-roads-across-eastern-colorado/...

    CO 3rd Rifle Thread

    thanks, I have Crispi Colorados and the Summit GTX so will start looking at the Nevadas too. I have the SG gaiters and wear them all the time while hunting for the moisture but also for the small seeds and twigs that gather in your boots. The Wet Mountains and Sangre De Cristo Mountains seemed...

    CO 3rd Rifle Thread

    After three and half days straight of snowfall here we woke up to clear skies. So thankful for the incredible moisture we received out of it though. I hope you all were able to get to into your hunting areas. I am interested in what boots you all are wearing for your 3rd season hunt and how...

    SG Chillkoot 15* vs. 0*

    I bought the Chilkoot 15 this summer and used for a scouting trip in the end of August with temps maybe 40 at night so I just left the bag only partially zipped and was quite comfortable, so much so, I slept in one morning. I then used it for my hunt for 1st season rifle in CO with temps in the...
