    Winchester m70 feed issues

    So ai bought a customized m70 from a friend. The barrel was chambered to fit very long 7mag bullets. Well the box mag was modified to fit said bullets. Now the bolt doesn't actually slide back far enough to clear the rim of the case, so it won't feed the bullets. Also (and not sure it was the...

    WTS NWT $210 Kifaru Lost Park Parkas XL

    Made an order from Kifaru, and got the wrong size. I have a full zip and half zip in the brown color. Both size XL. Would trade for a full zip large if that happened to work out. $210 each shipped

    Sierra Game King performance

    Yeah, it was probably about 20". I think it would have passed through if it hadn't hit the shoulder blade. I didn't find the core (didnt look super hard). I am thinking it might have passed through actually, as the jacket was only in the meat about an inch under the hide. I think the 260 is a...

    Sierra Game King performance

    Yes, quite dead. I've never tried retrieving a bullet from a live animal, but imagine it would prove to he difficult.

    Sierra Game King performance

    This is just a note for those interested on the performance of the 140gr Sierra Gamking from a 260rem. The bullet entered on the right side of a mule deer buck just behind the ribs, and passed through the abdominal and chest cavity, through the left ribs, and the left shoulder blade and was...

    Marsupial Bino harness hacks or experience?

    This will make me sound like a baby, but if I have to dlip lens and mostly fold them all closed everytime, I will just leave them in the pouch. But you are right, it would work

    Bino Harness

    I found my older FHF to get the job done, but the little hook and loop system was annoying. The marsupial was close to perfect, but had some issues with snow getting in and o my lenses(case was not right size for binos to be fair)

    Marsupial Bino harness hacks or experience?

    I have a Marsupial bino harness, and some zeiss terra 10x32 bino, which are pretty small. I otherwise love the harness, but had issues with snow blowing under the flap and getting on the lens. Has anyone found a way to resolve this? There is just too much gap between flap and lens. I dont really...

    Negative temps car camp

    We have used a buddy heater in a 10x12 tent quite a bit. We have the big buddy. It's never been an issue, but my preference is just turn it on in the morning when you are going to get out of your bag. A 20lb tank will last 2-3 nights on high. I use a 0 bag and throw a woobie over or in the bag...

    Cold Weather Pant Recommendations

    My experience is the same pair of pants doesn't work well for both hiking and glassing. I have worn the mountain harder compressors. They are decent. I am looking to get the kifaru lost park pants however. I think they might be far superior. Sweat can kill you if ita cold and windy out. Never...

    Why do Kifaru owners hate load shelves?

    I have done both. I find it very convenient to have the option of leaving my stuff in the bag, and just detaching it to use the load shelf if needed. I used to carry a little duffle that I would put my pack contents into and then strap on the outside if I filled the pack with meat. Worked, but...

    Top Three 2019 hunting buys (Game Changers)

    So far for me. 1. Mystery ranch Sawtooth. Went from a fannypack style hunting pack, to a Eberlesrock Team Elk, to this. 2. A bino harness. First year using one. Have a Marsupial, and a FHF. Think Iblile the marsupial more, but just using one has been huge. 3. Cabelas lightweight gore...

    Haglunds and boots - a (ongoing)review

    I currently have been wearing the Kenetrek Hardscrables. I am pretty happy with them other than the heel blisters(ended up adding strips of wool under the insoles that ran up behind my heels too). Do you have the mountain extremes? Also, are those heel pads the kind you stick inside your boot...

    Haglunds and boots - a (ongoing)review

    Thanks so much for all the effort you have put in to this and for keeping us updated. I have the same issue, and like you pretty much can only pull off trail runners. Can you post a link or better description of which heel pads you found that work? There are so many out there, I couldn't figure...
