    Help me build a sheep rifle!

    I like my paradigm stock. I was one of the lucky ones to purchase one before they got expensive and then quit selling them. I paid 1500cdn for mine back in 2021. if it had a negative comb it would be perfect. I just use a beartooth shell holder and cut a piece of foam out of a scope box and...

    18” 300WSM Berger

    im running a 20" wsm. I played with the 180 bergers but settled on 178gr eldx 64.5gr H4350 im at 2920fps. So you should be around 2875fps with 180's I've always just found accurate loads with book COAL for 300wsm. H4350 for 180's and under H100V for over 180's seem to work, H4831SC has always...

    Jet sled for fishing nw rivers

    don't overlook a actual in board jet boat either. opens up a lot of opportunities and with you being in Washington you can shop north of the boarder.

    Weight of your rifle support gear?

    I also try to cut as much weight as I can. if something doesn't serve a dual purpose it doesn't come. I'm even down to taking peak meals out of original packaging and then vacuum sealing them to save weight and space.

    Weight of your rifle support gear?

    no I've never taken a glassing pad. if the grounds wet rain pants go on and sit on my siltarp or tent foot print that's folded up in my bag.

    Weight of your rifle support gear?

    I don't think id ever take a dedicated rear bag on any hunt. rolled up rain jacket/ pants work. puffy jacket that rolled up into its stash pocket works. bins harness works, I even have smaller dry bags that I keep electronic or medical supplies in that will also work. I only take my tripod...

    Looking for input on ELD-X bullet performance (w/ field pics)

    Need rifle advice.. Thinking about selling my .308

    I don't see why a .308 with 168gr eldm's wouldn't be capable of 450 yards on elk.

    Need rifle advice.. Thinking about selling my .308

    lmao this should not happen. I don't run scope covers.. and hiked for a week sheep hunting in pouring rain. it was so wet I had to drain my stock every night cause its a hollow carbon fiber stock and water would trickle in from my quick detach sling hole :LOL: just spend money on a new scope and...
