    What has actually quit on you in the field?

    Cheap waders duck hunting. Taught me a lesson for sure on things that need to keep you dry and warm. Don`t go cheap on that stuff! Made for a cold, miserable day!

    Bergara B-14 Wilderness HMR vs. Premier HMR

    I know Rokslide is primarily a hunting site, but if anyone could opine as to the suitability of the Bergara Wilderness HMR in 6.5 Creed as a 1K yard target gun, would greatly appreciate it. Thanks.

    Is the Expen$$$ive Turkey ammo worth it?

    I`ve seen turkeys hit in the body inside of 30 yards, flip over, get up and keep running dragging a wing. It happened to me many years ago and it made me sick. It was one of the main occurrences that formulated my personal promise to myself and the birds of no shot beyond 40 yards, and head and...

    Is the Expen$$$ive Turkey ammo worth it?

    I guess a lot of it depends on why you`re there in the first place. The experience has changed for me over the years.

    Not if you`re really turkey hunting, no, you`re not doing it wrong.

    What do you all do to fight the ticks during spring

    I`m adding piccardin on exposed skin to permethrin on clothes this year for turkey season. The most dangerous thing in the woods is no bigger than the tip of your little finger.

    HS Precision DBM experience?

    Don`t know about their detachable mags, but IMHO if their stocks are any indication of overall quality of their manufacturing processes, they`re good to go!

    Why is it so hard to get my scope level?

    Beginning to think that mounting a scope properly is either a science or an art form ( maybe a touch of both ? ). For that reason I let people who know what the hell they`re doing mount mine.

    Rokslide special target ammo?

    Interesting your experience with 69 grain bullets. Probably my Savage 12 LRPV`s favorite to 500 ( hence it`s my favorite as well! ) is a 69 SMK.

    General Purpose Rifle... Bolt or AR?

    This. Hard pressed to think of any functions/needs that one might encounter in North America that it couldn`t handle.

    Creepy experiences in the backcountry

    Well.... I guess that`s good! Might well apply to 99 out of 100 Colorado bears. With my luck I`d meet up with #100!

    Creepy experiences in the backcountry

    I would agree that they are two different animals. The poster to which I and some others were responding didn`t specify, I don`t believe, the type of bear with which they were confronted. The comment I made and to which you refer was in reference to the whole notion of the advisability of...

    6.5 CM For New Hunter

    Take a look at the Savage 110 line, especially the lite Storm in .223. I have the regular Storm in .223 and it`s been everything I could have wanted in a first hunting rifle

    Creepy experiences in the backcountry

    You`re absolutely right, he might have. " Hey bear " was about it for a defensive strategy for Timothy Treadwell, AKA The Grizzly Man ", and his girlfriend, and I guess you could say it worked. Right up until they ran into the wrong bear. Which had added them both to the dinner menu.

    Creepy experiences in the backcountry

    " " Better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it." applies to lots of things in life IMHO. Also, I`m not sure what would constitute " holding my own " in the face of a determined bear attack(?). Maybe......just getting out of it alive with all limbs still attached?
