    Browning or Kimber

    I've got 5 Kimbers now and have no complaints about any of them. All of them are very accurate and a pleasure to carry. If anyone has a "junk" Kimber Montana that won't shoot and they want to sell it please let me know I'll gladly take it off your hands for the right price. All mine were used...

    TOAD of a whitetail!

    Looks like he was crossed with a Teddy Bear Hamster, a deer doesn't look like that naturally, maybe if he was castrated but that's not natural. GMD for sure.

    Reloading for a Kimber Montana??

    I wasn't so worried about the OD as much as the ID, going from 30 cal to 338 if there's enough meat to do so. it seems there would be but having never done it I really don't know. I believe Luke started with a 270 which would allow for more than enough. I know you can't rebore from .277 to...

    Heathers Choice meals ?

    I feel her meals are more in line to allow you to thrive on a long back pack hunt rather than just sustain life. Don't get me wrong I've killed some nice rams where my hunt was mainly fueled by MH but these Heathers Choice meals offer way more bang for the buck. With this kickstart campaign...

    Reloading for a Kimber Montana??

    Yeah my 84L started life as a 30-06 that I picked up at a similar price to yours. I guess I'm not sure about the bore dimensionally if a .30 caliber can be rebored to .338? What did you end up with for an OAL with your 250 A-frames, or a base to ogive measurement? Are you using RL-17? I'm...

    Reloading for a Kimber Montana??

    I did almost exactly what you've done. I found the mag box on the 84L too short for the bullets I wanted to use so I pulled the barrel and installed a 6-06 AI 1-8" Lilja barrel with the factory contour, it'll now handle long for caliber bullets in a nice handy rifle. I also wanted a 338-06 on...

    Heathers Choice meals ?

    Heathers Choice is all I used this year and I couldn't be happier, I can't say enough good about them. Small packaging, good calories and nutritional value for weight and size, lightweight, great flavor, filling. She's a local Alaskan girl so I might be somewhat bias in my support but she's...

    Packit Gourmet

    I've actually had quite a few of their meals and have been using them for my backpack hunts the last 4 years. For the most part they're better than most other meals, they're a lot like real food and I've only ran into a couple that were bland. The scones and smoothies are something I rarely...

    2015 Sheep Gear Lists

    I'm going to be flying out with 40 Mile Air this fall and they can't fly with the Jetboil or similar fuel cans. All I've used the last number of years is just my Jetboil so I'm looking at other options. Has anyone tried the adapter that will allow you to use the green Coleman propane bottles...

    Federal WSM brass experience ?

    I have found the federal brass to be really soft and I'm not a big fan of it. I've found Norma brass to be soft also and for the price I choose to pass on it. I've used quite a bit of Winchester 300 WSM loaded ammo that I bought and pulled the bullets to create 7mm wsm brass and it's worked...

    Thoughts On 7 WSM

    This is what I do, I look at the shelves to see if there is Winchester loaded 7mm WSM, not Federal their brass is junk, if there isn't any I look to see what they have for Winchester 300 WSM brass and buy it. I grab as many boxes as I think I'm going to need, then I pull bullets, dump powder...

    270 wsm

    Thanks, he's a DIY Alaska ram I took in 2012. I'd been drooling over the Sako 75 for while when my wife surprised me with it as a gift, I think now if she'd have known how many days I spent afield with it she might not have done it. Anyway I'm glad she did its been a great tool.

    270 wsm

    The scope is just a 3-9 Vxii, pretty vanilla but the scope has taken a beating and still shoots true. Sent it in once to have the end of the objective fixed due to being bent, did it again but folded it up real nice in a pretty good fall. It never affected glass or point of impact so it's...

    270 wsm

    I have a Sako 75 Finnlight in the 270 WSM that I absolutely love and I can't say enough good about it. It's been an accurate shooter right out of the box, a little over 2000 rounds through it and I've put some miles on it. A couple black bears, a few coyotes and 7 sheep, are all I've taken...

    Sako V

    I've been using a Sako 75 in a 270 WSM for a good number of years. Very accurate rifle and fits me well, killed a good number of critters with it. It's been used hard as a killing tool and carried on many hunts over many miles and has always performed flawlessly. I've got no complaints with...

    Epic Bars

    Well it's not so much of a gluten intolerance for me as it is a man needing meat and salt when he's hungry, sugar and oats are for cereal and little kids. When I'm hungry I want something other than sugar. I pretty much gave up on store bought power bars and have pretty much made my own the...

    looking for 22-250 brass

    I saw Sportsmans, Natchez, Powder Valley, & Cheaper Than Dirt. I haven't specifically looked for 22-250 brass but after replying to you yesterday I looked to see if our local Sportsmans warehouse had any and I found 5 bags of 100 Winchester brass and 2 boxes of Nosler brass. Look around...
