    Loads after adding suppressor

    That's one of my issues when I'm out in the field. I have to remember to tip my rifle so that the can doesn't hit branches as I hike under.

    Loads after adding suppressor

    I still ask the question of why you would cut down a barrel to add a suppressor. When I added a can to my factory Remington 700 I simply had the end of the barrel threaded. Still able to backpack hunt and kill elk with the normal length barrel with can attached. So, I have no info for your...

    Help a rookie decide - Archery or 4th rifle

    Agree with the suggestion to talk to prior hunters that have been on this ranch during 1st and 4th seasons. I understand that the herds move and hunts are weather dependant, but info from prior hunters is invaluable. Since you're meat hunting I would recommend rifle. Success for archery is...

    Another new guy from Minnesota

    I've got a place just east of Crookston off Hwy 2. Haven't hunted up there yet, but a buddy up in Halma (near Karlstad) has invited me for this next season. We'll see if it works out.

    Future of hunting on Federal lands

    The proposal to eliminate trapping, baiting and predator control on these lands is real. Please let me know how that is inaccurate or misleading. Disservice or dangerous? Hardly. It's good you have your priorities on the items you feel most threaten public hunting opportunities. Other...

    Concur. I have trapped, and I have hunted bears over bait. These are simply methods of take.

    NPS threatening to close 20 million acres in Alaska to some types of hunting

    When we change methods of take it's a slippery slope. Some states have prohibited using dogs for bear and cougar hunting. Some hunters see no issue with this, feeling it may not be "fair chase." But, when all hunting with dogs is banned they will finally protest. "But I'm a pheasant hunter...

    Yes. The summary of the proposed rule is as follows: "The National Park Service (NPS) proposes to amend its regulations for sport hunting and trapping in national preserves in Alaska. This proposed rule would prohibit certain harvest practices, including bear baiting; and prohibit predator...
