    Aaron Snyder on Joe Rogan podcast

    Hmmm, not sure I've heard that story on any podcast.

    Dvor has the LHT for $780 for another day and a half if anybody is still looking for it.

    CO leftover deer tags.

    It will be different next year. They said they couldn't move the pay date and the generation of the leftover draw this year so all the unpaid tags wouldn't be on the list. Next year they are changing dates around so that all unpaid tags will make it onto the leftover draw so they don't get...

    Cabela's 10% Tuesday?

    It was every Tuesday in May and they had the same promotion last year during the month of May. If you look at the Cabelas website, they switched it over to the Bass Pro software this last week. I'm purely making this up with no real information, but I don't think that bodes well for continued...

    300 wsm copper ammo

    Whenever you switch to Copper, they (being Barnes and others) recommend stepping down in Weight. The increased Velocity helps with expansion of the tougher monometals. That is why Barnes factory ammo comes in 165 gr and 150 gr. You can get the 180gr in the Federal Premium line though. For...

    Rifle decisions.......

    The Fierce Rival is based on a Remington 700 Action whereas the Carbon Fury and all the others are the Sako style action. You lose the 3 position safety and I believe it is a different trigger. If you watch the video on their website, they go through some of the differences.

    Sold WTS Kuiu Icon Pro 3200 Bag

    For sale is a new Kuiu Icon Pro 3200 Bag in Verde 2.0. I bought this last year with plans to use it in Alaska, but then decided on the Ultra 4000 for more room. This bag still has the tag attached, has never been mounted, and includes the Adapter buckle kit if you have the older frame. I'm...

    HELP: Seekins vs Fierce—6.5 PRC

    Waiting to get my 6.5 PRC back from Hells Canyon. What powder and rough powder range are you using on the LRX. Planning on running both 156gr Bergers and the LRX.

    HELP!!!—Which Leupold Scope for my new Seekins 6.5 PRC?

    Another vote for Mark 5 3.6-18x44. If you want to dial, then that is your best bet for long term reliability as others have said.

    Let’s talk about ballistic rangefinders. Sig 2400abs, Leica, g7, bdx and kestrel, what do you run? What do you like?

    I have the Sig 2400bdx and the Kestrel Elite. I like the separate components versus 1 unit. I have found myself playing more with the Kestrel as a standalone unit than as a synced bluetooth only unit. A couple use cases for me where this last year when I was on a guided hunt. The guide was...

    My Hunt is Over! Blisters No MORE (Part 1 Prevention)... by Luke Stephens

    You mention death from a blister, but back before the age of antibiotics, that is exactly what happened to President Coolidge's 16 year old son from playing tennis. Interesting historical fact. https://www.coolidgefoundation.org/blog/the-medical-context-of-calvin-jr-s-untimely-death/

    Help, is my barrel shot?

    Buy a Teslong bore scope from amazon for $50 dollars. That will tell you whether you are having issues with copper fouling, carbon ring, etc. You can compare against a good shooter rifle without having to know what you are looking at. 5-6 inches at 300 to 400 yards isn't outside the bounds of...

    Meindl Denali, Crispi Nevada no cushioning, pain

    I could be wrong here, but I think the old Meindl Perfekts have more cushioning with the cork footbed then the Denalis. Meindl is distributing directly now that Cabelas no longer carries them. They have different names, but if you liked the toe-box of the Denalis, it might be worth giving them...

    Welcome to Colorado Leftover Watch

    There was definitely talk about changing up the process and they had a survey on what people would prefer, but I've never heard any followup on any changes. Right now they are still saying it will be the usual process of tags randomly hitting the leftover list starting in August. I have no...

    Merino Underwear

    Another vote for Black Ovis for more everyday use. I don't baby them and they hold up fine. I do baby my first lite red deserts for hunting.

    Synthetic/Merino Blend Base Layers

    Sounds like what you want is the Kuiu Pro Merino. No experience with this specific item, but if you haven't used their baselayers before, the full zip on/off is pretty damn nice. I don't think I will ever buy another set of bottom baselayers that don't zip on and off. 53% Merino / 38%...

    Colorado Secondary Draw/Leftover List

    Link is the same as elk, but with Deer replacing Elk. If you want Pronghorn, just replace that word. https://cpw.state.co.us/Documents/Hunting/BigGame/SecondaryDraw/Secondary_Draw_Deer.pdf

    Sierra 6 BDX?

    Incorrect, the Sig BDX is still legal in Colorado. They changed the definition of a smart rifle a little bit this year from saying a scope containing a ballistic calculator to a computer processor, but it still doesnt apply to the BDX according to CPW. That being said, longer term I don't...

    Colorado Draw Order

    That sounds right for Preference points, but definitely not right for any non preference point you put in for. They specifically call this out on page 8 of the 2020 regulations. So no matter what, if you draw a tag then your are either out your money or your preference points. NOTE: If we...

    Colorado Draw Order

    No email yet, but the website says I drew a deer tag. It would be nice if they said something like awarded rather than accepted when you draw and also change the color from gray like they do if you don't get a tag when they change it to orange.
