    Your favorite stable meat sticks?

    For the last 10 years I can't thing of a hunting trip where I didn't have at least 3-4 1lb slabs of biltong, it keeps well. Made pemmican and bought pemmican and can't get past the flavor and grease it leaves in your mouth.

    Eyecups on Kowa Genesis 10.5 x 44 too thick?

    I have the 10.5x44’s and find them to be comfortable, I don’t have any complaints.

    Rifle choice 300 win mag

    I'd go with the Fierce. It has a long mag box, it will easily handle any bullet you might want to use, doors won't be shut there. It has a factory 1-9" twist and should stabilize all but maybe the longest bullets. It has a Sako Hunter stock, and the barrel is threaded. For a factory rifle I...

    The "not so little" little things

    Body Glide, it’ll save a hunt, anti bacterial wipes. I also bring Emergen C packets and crystal light packets for my water bottles although not nearly as much as I used to.

    Cleaning case lube after sizing

    I toss each case as it’s sized in a tub of denatured alcohol. I size using Hornady One-Shot, has worked fine for removing all case lube for me.

    Does anybody here have a 416 Ruger?

    I own an older Alaskan in a 416 and I absolutely love it. Its accurate and a real pleasure to carry. Delivered the knock out punch on a couple big brown bears with it. I load 400 grain Swift A-Frames ahead of 80 grains of MR-2000.

    Ewe Hunts

    Mike, I was slightly younger than you hanging out in our little Montana hometown sporting good store just after permits came out, I remember an older gentleman coming in saying he'd just drawn a bighorn sheep tag. His words were "I've been applying all my life for a sheep permit and isn't that...

    Anyone using Hornady ELD Match for LR hunting?

    I've shot the 162 ELDX out of a 7mm WSM running @ 3240 fps. Shot a goat @ about 200 yards, hit 3 times behind the shoulder, got exits. Big entrance, smaller exit, ribs and lungs were destroyed. Shot a black bear on the point of the shoulder quartering towards me about 250 yards. He required...

    Painting Kimber Montana Stock

    I don't get fancy with my paint jobs and never have painted the full stock but the balance point where I carry my rifle and the pistol grip get a crude paint job with wing walk paint. It's very durable and when it's cold out and my hands are dry it works well to keep the rifle from slipping in...

    "non hunting" backpacks

    I use a Dan McHale internal frame pack, have used it for about everything since 2006 it's been my go to pack. Recently picked up a SG Avail for a day pack. Love my McHale but when I purchased it internal frame packs then weren't what they are now.

    Meopta Warranty

    I had a older model that was probably purchased around 2000-2001 by a friend, a 15-45x not sure which model, I bought it from him around 2006 and used it until around 2015. The threads where it attached to a tripod head wallowed out so I sent it in to see if it could be fixed or replaced, two...

    WTB Kimber Montana 7 WSM

    I was able to find a Montana in a 7mm WSM a couple of years ago, really like that rifle. I bought another Montana in a 325 WSM and had it rebarreled by PacNor to 7mm WSM. I couldn't be happier with either rifle, both a pleasure to carry and both very accurate. Over the past 3 years all my 7mm...

    Rookie Field Dressing Question

    I've done quite a few paws BRWNBR and I think I get better with each one but nowhere near the 5 minute mark, I'd love to see you put together a short video on getting through it a lot quicker. I'm always open to better ways and the two brown bear I did this spring took me significantly longer...

    Heather's Choice recomendations

    I've been using Heathers Choice meals pretty much exclusively here over the last year or so. Ethiopian Dorwat is probably my favorite followed by Moms Pasgetti, I personally really like the packaroons and try to bring one for every day I'll be in the field but make most of my own power bars...

    Hogue Overmolded Stocks

    Pulled mine off my 416 Ruger as soon as I bought and replaced it with the old boat paddle stock. Hogue flexes too much and I've never cared for the feel of it.

    WTB Kifaru 8Man or TiGoat Vertex8

    Looking to see if anyone has a tipi tent from either company this size that they'd like to sell or partially trade. I have a 10x10 Bomb Shelter and Kodiak Condo both bought at Barney's Sports Chalet. The Condo has seen two small outings, very little use, both are in great shape, would sell for...

    Thoughts on a Kimber Montana 260?

    If I were you I'd buy it. If you decide not to purchase the rifle would you care to say where this rifle may be, I think I know someone who would be interested? All the Montana's I have are very accurate and a pleasure to carry in the field. I've done the "Montana Tinkering" right out of the...
