    Wisconsin Bear Attack

    Yes it is. I live in WI so this made local news pretty fast. The first article I saw quoted him saying he was attacked for about 45 seconds before his son shot. According to the WI DNR this is the 14th attack since 2013. I know one of those that have been attacked personally...

    Going from multiple rifles to just one

    That's exactly why I went down the rabbit hole. I like to play with different cartridges but don't have the desire to buy/sell/trade rifles in so many calibers like I used to. This is so much easier and takes up so little space. I have a little rack built with PVC sleeves to keep my barrels in...

    Going from multiple rifles to just one

    I have 3 primary rifles set up that never change so I can just grab and go. The switch barrel approach lets me play with all the calibers I want. I will say in my experiment with the switch barrel build a good optic that actually tracks removes any reservations I had with zero repeatability...

    Going from multiple rifles to just one

    I'm somewhat into the process of this, but with a twist. I'm building a pair of switch barrel rifles set up with multiple barrels already headspaced to the action and a couple of stocks to fit the purpose. I can have 2 guns and 15 different calibers this way if I want. The problem is the market...

    E-Bike Accessories

    I have this one. https://a.co/d/9LCxjAo I've tried their bags and a cheap set from Amazon and both fit great. I use the cheap set more than the Ibera bags mostly because they have a lot more room.

    E-Bike Accessories

    I have a similar but cheaper rack. I haven't strapped a climber to it yet but I do clamp a milk crate to it. I might try setting the climber on the milk crate next weekend when I finally get out deer hunting.

    E-Bike Accessories

    That Burley hooks to the the left side of the axle and pulls better than I expected. I have about 70 pounds on the trailer in that picture and that trail was pretty rocky. I'm honestly surprised I didn't blow a tire. The down side is it doesn't have a lot of ground clearance so the bottom got a...

    E-Bike Accessories

    I use a Burley trailer to lug heavier gear down decent trails and then have saddle bags. During Turkey season I can put just about all my gear and decoys on the bike and need nothing else.

    Idahoans do not like out-of-state hunters

    I've not had a negative experience with Idaho residents while hunting out there. Always been cordial, sharing stories and what we saw where. I only bow hunt there, not sure if that matters though but it's probably just the people I've run into. Run in to people hunting elk, sheep and deer while...

    Mountain lion encounters

    How many of you have ever run into a mountain lion while archery hunting? I did a couple of years ago. We had a 50 yard staring contest before light early in the morning for about a half hour before it moved on. I came around a bend heading to a spot I wanted to sit and there it was. Didn't want...

    Where do you do service rifle competitions? My area is a little dry for any competitive shooting outside of trap league.

    Favorite hot drinks

    I like to bring some Swiss Miss and raspberry teas. Something other than coffee is good in the evenings.

    Idaho/Montana -

    Yeah, better report it and have it removed. This awesome report is going to draw thousands more to that zone.

    Idaho/Montana -

    I won't be going again for at least a couple years and even then it's luck of the system to get an OTC tag.

    Maker bullets are pretty impressive at subsonic speeds.

    Idaho/Montana -

    I archery hunted Idaho his year, 2nd to last week in September. My hunting partner had a Montana draw tag, so we traveled together and I hoofed it over the top from Montana and spiked over in Idaho for my hunt. First night on the way to Idaho I saw 9 cows and small bull (spike or fork) near the...

    Wisco FNG

    New guy from central WI here. Long time lurker on the forums, figured I'd finally join up and join in some discussions. Desk jockey and road warrior by day, not enough time to hunt as much as I want to. Focus mostly on whitetail and upland in state, some waterfowl, limited trapping when...
