    Chronograph. Go cheap or invest heavy?

    I use one way more than that and I went with the Caldwell for like 90 bucks. Unless your really trying to reload and work on standard deviation between shots. Well then the big boys work out better. Any FPS you get on a rifle for long range shooting must be actually verified for correction...

    Listen up Californians!

    Hey, this is what they want in California. They keep electing these people, so this is what they get. Just stay in California and stop being blue locust swarming to destroy other states.

    Help me decide on a lightweight stove

    Option 3. The toaks you get usually comes with the orange bag. I carry the toaks 550 pot BRS stove, lighter and a cheap walmart collapsible cup. The cup is 2 bucks and weights nothing. I have had the Jetboil and it was good but it take up more room and weighs more way more.

    16" conpact bolt big game rifle

    Look at efficiency of powder burn by barrel length and bore. 6.5 PRC really not that great with that short barrel. I would really look at the old 308 win or 338 Federal. Short barrels with tight bores dont burn efficiently.

    Elk Noses

    Elk have a better nose than a dog. I had a bird dog that could wind a pheasant downwind at 75 yards easy. You are way bigger than a pheasant. My buddy had a stupid pet bull once, long story. He loved me as I made it a habit of giving him cool ranch doritos. If I was hunting archery...

    Rifled slug gun or muzzleloader?

    A good muzzleloader has insane accuracy now. My CVA Wolf cheap muzzleloader hold a 3.5 inch group open sights at 100 yards. That is a 5 shot group.

    Suppressor wait times

    How about they stop being idiots. Why does it take so long for repeat customers. If I have 1 can already it should not take a year for the second one. The system is broken and they have no desire to fix it.

    "The Best Killer Elk Rifles from a Guide's Perspective"

    Funny how people get all butt hurt on this one. Key words largest you can shoot accurately. If I was on the receiving end say a marginal shot like in a leg ect. I would rather be shot by a 243 than a 338. Key thing to remember is you must be able to hit where you aim. To many people think...

    I'm the guy that's spooking all your elk

    First, wind wind wind. Second pay attention to your nose. I will smell elk many times before I spot them. That is so helpful. Moving through country and you smell them, that means number 1 is in your favor. As far as aggression goes, I go after them. I hunt the PNW so it is a little...

    True sleeper optics

    Old Bushnell Elite scopes. The glass was Bausch & Lomb for a few years. Those models are rock solid. I have a really old Bushnell Elite it is like 30 plus. Turrets dial like a dream. It runs the squares and returns zero every time. Sitting on a Ultralight 300 RUM.

    Rifle scopes you'd love to see Form test

    Liberty Safes Provides Access Codes to FBI

    My problem with the whole thing is, WTF you have a master code to get into the safe. I thought when you changed the codes, that was the new codes, but apparently it is not. The manufacturer still has a code to work around it. That is not how a safe is supposed to work. I bet those master...

    6.5 PRC bullet help needed. I know squat

    That ELDX will do just fine. Most important part is putting the bullet in the right spot.

    Quitting Alcohol

    Lost weight, got in better shape. You can substitute one bad habit with a good one like working out.

    270 vs 7mm-08 vs 308 vs 30/06

    7mm PRC, 6.5 PRC or 300 WSM, 300 Win Mag. Those would be my choices in order. The 600 yard shot is the kicker.
