    Non- and anti-hunters on game commissions

    Did I say that? What state is hunting illegal in? And if that is what the citizens of the state decide, to make all hunting illegal that is their right since they own the animals.

    Non- and anti-hunters on game commissions

    “Hikers” was in response to the other poster using “hikers”. I don’t personally call hikers antis. I call anti hunters, anti hunters.

    Non- and anti-hunters on game commissions

    Whoever does the most should be the only ones that have a say in how wildlife should be managed. Copy copy. Hikers don’t want wildlife they own getting killed by people. And because we as hunters disagree with that, hikers should not have a voice. Copy copy. (Not sure why hikers got singled...

    Non- and anti-hunters on game commissions

    Isn’t wildlife owned by the citizens of the state it resides in? If so, whether a citizen is a hunter, wildlife watcher, anti hunter, etc, every citizen of the state owns it. It sucks but it seems like any citizen of a state has just as much right to say what should happen with wildlife they...

    WA Black Bear Strategy

    Interesting advice. When I researched black bears in Washington they had the highest population per square mile in the lower 48 if I remember correctly. As for hunting bears in Washington. Bears dislike people and like eating. So if you can find their food source for the time of year you are...

    75 eld-m and Varget, .22cm

    I came across a load for the 80 grain Berger of 38.3 grains Varget on a forum. I haven't shot it and of course it depends on brass, primer, etc. I just looked up Varget and the 75 ELD and see loads posted from 36-39 grains. I would start low of course and work up.

    New Hornady bullet

    I ran some numbers the other day looking at the 53 Vmax and the 62 Vt in a 22 creed. It looked like they were close to the same drop/drift with a 400 fps difference. If you can shoot them @3350 fps it seems like a solid improvement over the 53's for you.

    New Hornady bullet

    If I remember correctly you have a Tikka 22-250 with a 1-8 twist? How fast are you shooting the 53’s from it? It’ll be interesting to see how the 62’s do for you. I’m thinking of loading some up for the 22 Creed and seeing how they do.

    Talk to me about the XLR Element

    I use one a lot. I pack them with a gun bearer, by hand, clamped to the tripod, etc. Haven’t had any issues packing them. I’ve never had issues using them in more extreme temps. This year I used one in Nevada in August and North Dakota in January. Fairly diverse range of temps imo. Some have...

    Clip-On Thermal Experience

    I've used one. Obviously there are positives and negatives. It works fine for coyote hunting. A dedicated weapon sight is easier to use than a clip on though. Depending on what you are doing, the type of weapon, (AR/bolt in regular stock/bolt in chassis) scopes on each weapon, distance, one is...

    Arizona does away with auction tags

    I'm not a fan of the Utah model when it comes to auction tags. I personally think one auction tag per species probably has more pros than cons though.

    Scope Cam Adaptor

    I have it. Works well. I believe the Ollin is probably the best overall especially for speed. But the Scopecam fits way more eye pieces for the price. I can wirelessly charge my phone with the plate stuck to the case.

    1:8 Tikka .243 velocities

    I have one and shot to 3050 fps with zero pressure signs. 105 grain. So far it doesn't shoot like I would like at all accuracy wise. I'm going to try another bullet and hopefully test it this week depending on weather.

    TMK vs. Eld-M vs. Berger Elite Hunter terminal ballistics

    Gotcha. I had some weird issues with Bergers recently. I’m going to clean the tips and see if it makes a difference.

    Can it collapse inward if the nose is clogged?
