    Any raptor F150 owners?

    What is the tell when the front shocks are done? Mine drives great but is a little saggy up front. Wears the inside of the tires.

    Denali National Park bridge crew ordered to stop flying American flags

    I’ve done plenty of construction contract work for NPS and live in NP gateway community. I am often critical of this park. Be that as it may, I would be surprised if the Park Superintendent contacted the contractor’s onsite representative about flying a flag. Generally that is not the pecking...

    Tikka 223 problem

    I would consider the barrel as the issue, given that it is a “factory take off”. That generally means that someone had a problem with it and pawned it off on someone else instead of throwing it away. Kampfield has a good reputation, however I doubt he has the capability to measure the bore...

    Would have been 17 Sunday

    You are not wrong about the broken mental health care system in this country. Sufficed to say we can relate. God found us an old school psychiatrist and I full-well believe he saved my son’s life. I am so sorry for your loss. You are not alone. We don’t know why these things happen, sometimes...

    What does it take to kill a grizzly?

    I bet they don’t either. Because a hunted bear is really not an issue. A wounded bear is. The best shot on a wounded bear, a stopping shot, is through the hips.

    Kuiu island AK

    Spent some time there chasing steelhead in the Spring. We always came from the Juneau side, not the Ketchikan side. Nothing dramatic that I can recall other than a pretty lumpy ride churned up from Dixon Entrance. We were in 65-75’ steel boats. We anchored at the entrance to Kadake Bay. Theres...

    Outdoor Wood Boiler Heating System

    We have a central boiler. Same problems with the firebox failing. We put a new bottom in it. They suck as a company. The boiler works well, uses a lot of wood. All we have is softwood, pine and spruce. It would probably be much better with hardwood. Very smoky. Wouldn’t be cool in a...

    What does it take to kill a grizzly?

    That’s fair about guides. What about the AK wildlife troopers? The guys the NPS rangers called to sort out the bears that consumed Mr Treadwell and his friend in the National Park. Also inexperienced and unprepared with inadequate shooting skills? I think they like 12ga. Brenneke slugs. Those...

    What does it take to kill a grizzly?

    That’s fair. I wonder though how dozens upon dozens of bear guides who want everyone to go home without bite marks can be so wrong but a couple folks here armed with no first hand knowledge can be so right? The only way to know is to get some guides or AK Fish and Game wildlife troopers to start...

    What does it take to kill a grizzly?

    They can be snuck up on and killed with anything. Conventional guide wisdom says the bigger bullet the better for one that’s upset and coming at you and your sport from short range at 46 feet per second. Most any argument against an M4 with 30 rounds of 77TMK being the best brown bear stopper on...
