    American Reloading - Too Good To Be True?

    American Reloading is good to go. Just be aware most of their products are demilitarized (disassembled ammunition).

    Compact SFP Scopes with Mil or MOA Reticles?

    That is correct. Per the Idaho Big Game 2021 Seasons & Rules, Page 100 "it is unlawful to pursue or kill big game animals with any electronic device attached to, or incorporated in, the firearm or scope, except scopes containing battery powered or tritium lighted reticles are allowed."

    Moving from WA to PA

    Depending on how far you're willing to travel to hunt in PA, bobcat is fairly predominant in central to western PA, elk is an option but not an easy draw (lottery), black bear has significantly picked up statewide (I can personally attest to this as I have seen +500lb black bears), coyote...

    Reloading bench ideas

    I'm currently drawing up my reloading bench design (special thanks to my blueprint class in college). I bought a 6ft x 42" slab of 2" thick bowling alley lane I'm going to use as the bench top with 2x4 legs, braces and an overhead self I'm going to affix an LED worklight to with pegboard...

    Riflescope Help

    I have a Zeiss Conquest V6 3-18x50 with the ZMOA-2 reticle atop a 300WM. It checks all my boxes for clarity, brightness, color contrast, field of view and functionality. The only thing I would change is a lockable or capped windage turret. If you're counting ounces, the VX-5HD 3-15x44 with the...

    Rifle size and weight. Going big for accuracy?

    I have a 9lb scoped & loaded 300WM that is a dream to shoot. It does have a muzzle brake but recoil is very mild for a magnum. Also, for being a back country / mountain rifle I went with a Hart 24" fluted Douglas #3 sporter profile barrel. There is a minimal difference in velocity/energy...

    PA rifle opener

    Took this 9-point last Friday around 1PM in WMU 1A. I kicked up some deer walking around Wednesday but had no visibility so I went the opposite direction on Friday and saw this guy with another 2-point spike. Wouldn't give me a shoulder view so I shot him in the neck, then a bigger buck and the...

    2021 - Who Got Their First Elk?

    It was a 4 year process for me to plan my first western elk hunt which took place this October. As this was my first experience western hunting, I went with a guide on public land hunting the Coeur d'Alene National Forest in Northern Idaho. I made sure I set myself up with the most realistic...
