    Terminal performance: 69tmk vs 77tmk?

    If you google “bullet rpm affect on terminal performance” or “bullet spin affect on terminal performance” you’ll find lots of reading. I didn’t easily find a scientific type article. I’ll look more later. I don’t recall if it was Litz that wrote about it, or someone else.

    Wyoming Hunter Fined $10,000 for Mistaking a Grizzly for a Black Bear

    That video was cringey. I can’t imagine it set a good example for the kid. The bear looks really small, like a just kicked out by mom size bear. In the video it’s hard to tell size reference, but the ears look goofy big on its head like a cub. In person I would expect it to be easier to judge...

    Terminal performance: 69tmk vs 77tmk?

    Another thing to consider is that twist rate (rotational RPM) also plays a role in penetration. Your losing weight of the projectile as well as RPM’s.

    2024 Idaho General Draw! 10 days until the MADNESS!

    Only 12k? That’s probably only a 5 hour wait to try and buy the scraps unless the system crashes yet again. LOL

    Alaska Caribou: Send It, By Jeff Lund

    Missed opportunity to have the link at the end of the article. I don’t know how many folks click that “comment or ask” hot link at the end of the articles. I generally don’t.

    Having watched the video and then reading the article was good. Helped tie the story together.

    I spent my childhood in various shirts that were short a sleeve or two.

    The#1 issue affecting hunting?

    Lack of participation in politics, conservation groups, game commissions, 2A support organizations, ect… I think lack of participation is the #1 issue.

    Who’s ready to go pink?

    Washington allows “hunter pink” as an option to hunter orange. I don’t think I’ve seen clothing offered in that color.

    Incredible development in hunting technology

    I buy the Cottonelle 10 pack ones in the travel section, and then also the Cataphil moisturizing wipes from the same section. Keep my kit in a quart ziplock in the pack lid with some TP. No monkey butt. Just clean comfort all hunting season.

    Black Rifle Coffee has let me down, those #$%#$%

    Pretty sure if you search you’ll not find proof of your claims. I don’t support or buy Starbucks. https://scambusters.org/starbucks.html

    Black Rifle Coffee has let me down, those #$%#$%

    I read the OP and thought “that’s a funny sarcastic post”. And then I read the comments, LOL!

    Jeep Gladiator - good hunting rig?

    Do the Gladiators leak like the wranglers do? Maybe in the SW region that wouldn’t matter,

    Extended warranty on a used vehicle

    You need to read carefully. I’ve had a few and never had one actually pay out for anything. They often exclude parts, like sensors, consumables like the battery, software loading, non-internal lubricated parts, ect…. Had a Honda with a tranny issue. Not covered cause it was some second gear...

    Estate Question pricing Ammo

    I think your 50% of an averaged purchase price sounds fair. I just bought a truck load of crap in a similar situation. Much of it is in that middle ground of the 70’s and 80’s. Old, but not old enough to be interesting. Stuff that age isn’t much for collecting, and not worth starting in on...

    Debone to cross state lines?

    Washington you have to debone, not sure for Oregon, California you don’t have to debone. Depends where the guy is planning to take the meat. Debone and clean skull plate would be the conservative standard choice for the outfitter to avoid trouble.

    Chrono help please

    I have a pro chrono, or shooting chrony, whatever they call it. It’s a fold up metal box that takes a 9v. For mine the battery has to be fresh. And it needs to be sunny. Much overcast or tree cover and it reads slow speeds or nothing at all. Out in the sun with a fresh 9v it reads very well...

    Suzuki Carry or side by side?

    Side by side would be much more nimble, stable, faster, and more fun. My buddy had a Scarry (his actually said “S carry” right on the tailgate. He put ATV style tires on his. Riding around sitting on/in front of the front wheels is very odd feeling in rough terrain. I thought they were cool...

    Gila DNA Outfitters - David Silva Guide Review. 5 Stars

    By my math you hunted a total of 2.5 days with this guide and had one opportunity at a small buck. The rest of the hunt you were screwing with your muzzleloader or trick-or-treating. Did you see other deer? Blown stocks, ect…? Was the small buck you missed a mule deer, or cues? How far was...
