    Your First Shot on a Cold Bore is the most important.

    I also never hunt with a clean bore. Usually try and get at least a few shots down the tube after cleaning and before heading out on a trip. I have a 100 yard range at my house and every once in a while I will grab a rifle and go take a single shot with it to see what it does just to see. I...

    What do you take to eat for a day hunt?

    Usually a sandwich of some sorts, almonds, and plenty of jerky since my buddies always want some too. Also granola bars and candy bars even when it’s hot out. Not pretty when you open the package but still good. Some days I just take the jerky, nuts and water as I usually don’t eat that much...

    Any way you all found to get the rubber taste out of water bladder

    I have used baking soda and water before with some success shaking it around and rinsing. I agree with what was said above about Platypus, never had issues with those.

    Talk me out of a tikka

    I do the same thing! I order the same plates every time to avoid being disappointed and I have learned to do the same at gun shops - Get the Tikka, you won’t be disappointed!

    Best Option for Cell Camera System?

    I also use Tactacam. I haven’t tried other cellular cameras but did a bunch of research a couple years ago before I got them. They have worked great so far, no reason for me to change!

    What did you do in the reloading room today?

    I have since sold my Tikka Veil 6.5 PRC barrel but I checked my notes for the load I had settled on. 57.5 grains of N565, 143 ELD-X, .010” off lands (3.005” COAL to tip/2.380” to Ogive) Lapua brass and gm210m primers gave me 2900 FPS on the dot and very very tight groups. I went further but...

    Elk Hunting/ Family Camping Tent Suggestions?

    I have a 14x16 wall tent with stove and it’s awesome for longer trips and 2+ people but not fun to set up and take down. Last year I got the 10x14 Kodiak and it’s been awesome for shorter trips and a couple guys. Can be set up and taken down in damn near 10 minutes. Nice to have both options...

    Howa VS Tikka

    The VG2 stock that I got had no issues and was inletted perfect. My only complaint was the hollow sound but I removed the pad and filled it with spray foam which helped a lot. Pretty easy mod just make sure you get the low expansion foam so it doesn’t expand and crack the carbon. Super...

    Howa VS Tikka

    I’m a huge fan of Tikka’s and prefer them but Howa’s are pretty solid. Rebarreled a Howa that I had for years from 7 Rem to 7 PRC, put a Timney in it and and put it in a VG2. Awesome rifle that shoots great. My dad has pretty much adopted it, he loves it.
