    Which optic

    What he said but with 4w reticle and custom BT turret. I’ve had zero issues with my Z6 scopes on my rifles. They stay true!

    Missing Rifle Scope Features?

    My wish would be a 2-16x44 non illuminated Swarovski Z8 with ballistic turret and weigh under 18 oz total.

    Expediter Fees

    I am not sure what you’re being charged but on average I’ve paid around $2000 to $2500 trophy shipment and customs handling/expediting for bringing sheep/goats in from international hunts. It’s much cheaper to bring as checked luggage but usually not possible because of paperwork timing. I’ve...

    Kuiu new $900 coat

    It’s a purpose built item for a specific need. This jacket wasn’t made for the average hunt or hunter and I suspect 99% of hunters will not require this. But it’s great to have options available for those that need something like this. Let’s look at the bigger picture rather than harping...

    College vs skilled trades.

    THIS!!! No truer words have ever been written on the internet

    College vs skilled trades.

    Well for one, it’s an requirement to be considered “qualified” especially if doing consulting work. My “piece of paper” engineering degree has opened many doors for my career. Hardly a waste of time. Probably the best thing I did in my life was getting my degree. And yes I use my...

    Show me your sheep rig

    I saw a Barrett fieldcraft in 6.5 CM at Sportsman Warehouse in Reno a couple weeks ago.

    College vs skilled trades.

    I work in my degree field (mining) and graduated with very little student debt. I worked summers in the mines (for industry experience) had scholarships, a few grants and a little help from the parents. I now make mid six figures per year and get to travel all over the world for work, and...

    Nwt ram

    What he said! I’ve also hunted there twice. Just an outstanding experience. I would go every year with Harold and his crew if circumstances allowed!

    2021 B-Zone outlook

    Not many forests remain in B-zone. US Forest Service doing their best to burn out what areas are left at tax payers expense with zero accountability.

    Gortex insulated comfort

    Anyone have experience with effective temperature rating for boots having gortex insulated comfort lining? Curious if they are comparable to boots with 1000 gram thinsulate in terms of warmth.

    Recent reports for Kyrgyzstan?

    Profihunt…glad you had a good experience with them and to learn they are capable of organizing a hunting program. I booked with them for turs in Russia a few years back and had a less than stellar experience with them. First and last time using them as far superior booking agents out there.

    Wyo Task Force - Nonres Comments!

    I’m really glad I have invested 22 years of building points for sheep based on the 25% tag allocation for NR to have that stripped to 10%. I love spending $150/yr for this privilege while residents pay $7/yr for their sheep bonus points. How is this fair and equitable? I can see dropping...

    2021 B-Zone outlook

    I would rather see a few dozer lines then millions of acres of burn. The complete mismanagement of fires at tax payers expense by the USFS is criminal.

    2021 B-Zone outlook

    The single best thing that could happen is to take away firefighting and forest management responsibilities away from the Forest Service and give it all to Cal Fire.

    September AK Sheep hunt clothing

    I’ve never been impressed with FL clothes, including the Uncompahgre “puffy”. It’s a great jacket if you want something that is ill fitting and you want to be cold! Mind you, I had the first generation jacket. I would take Kifaru LP or Kuiu Superdown Pro. Better to have too much jacket than...

    Hells canyon armory

    I hope this thread doesn’t turn into speculation of how much the guy makes and should be admonished in social media platforms for not immediately returning communication!
