    Unfilled Tag on Guided Sheep Hunt

    Try spending double that… It’s more about the adventure than the trophy, I love these hunts because I come home and appreciate things like water faucets, and I prove to myself that I am still somewhat ‘tough’

    Unfilled Tag on Guided Sheep Hunt

    Hunted 15 days in BC this year for a Stone. Unsuccessful. While I admit I want to kill one more than I probably should, bordering on obsession, I had a great hunt. Just couldn’t turn up a legal Ram. The dream lives on…

    Is there anything you can do when you have a bad experience with a guide/outfitter?

    Im not quite sure how 'unethical' the situation was as you described. 'Not smart' is probably a better description. I havent done many guided hunts, in fact, the only guided hunt I have done is in Alaska and we had some guys land on an adjacent ridge and spook all the sheep, so I told the...

    Staccato Pistols Worth It?

    Id be leery of any 2011 that doesnt have a lot of feedback from non-paid sources. Joe Chambers, a very respected gunsmith and unbelievably knowledgeable of the 1911 and 2011 platforms has given favorable reviews of the Staccato - he has picked apart some of the other high-end brands (Nighthawk...

    NULA Sold to Wilson Combat

    You are correct on the barrel being bedded out to the end of the stock. Ive heard this is why they shoot almost any load into the same POI.

    Staccato Pistols Worth It?

    The C2 grip is shorter in length - think G17 vs G19 although the specs are not exactly the same.

    Staccato Pistols Worth It?

    I carry my C2, the P is larger and prints more (magwell, etc). The P is probably the best shooting pistol I have ever shot, the C2 shoots well also, just carries easier.

    Staccato Pistols Worth It?

    Ive only ever ordered direct from Staccato - if you are prior mil or LEO they have a good discount you can apply for. By the way, this thread cost me another P. Ordered this morning.

    Staccato Pistols Worth It?

    I have several Staccato's - C2 and P's - I was a Glock guy (and still like Glocks), but the Staccato is awesome. Have about 10k rounds through them - no issues. Its everything a 1911 wants to be, and a Glock could never be. For those wondering why you would choose one over a Glock - its got a...

    Help Me Choose a Christensen FFT Ridgeline

    I’m probably dating myself, but it was on a titanium action/carbon barrel model from 2016. I’ll step away from the discussion as it sounds like they have tightened up their product line.

    Help Me Choose a Christensen FFT Ridgeline

    That’s impressive. This was in the 2016 timeframe. I agree that the actions are less than impressive and the stocks remind me of the factory Tikka stock too. I’d rather buy a Sako for the money.

    Help Me Choose a Christensen FFT Ridgeline

    I have been down the Christensen road before - as has my brother. Both rifles shot patterns rather than groups and Christensen was less than helpful. Find a better option…

    357 vs. 9mm for hiking Grizz country

    I have carried .357’s, 10mm’s, and .44’s in griz country. Thankfully I’ve never had to use anything in defense of a bear. That being said, I’ve been relatively close (inside 50 yards) with my pistol in my hand (.357 at the time) and honestly felt under-gunned, and it was only a 400ish pound...

    What scope am I looking for?

    NF 2.5-10x42 with the MIL reticle. It’s SFP, but everything is a series of compromises, and I made the FFP/SFP compromise in favor of everything else…
