    Idaho Mule Deer OTC

    If you're finding only does and young bucks you're not high enough in elevation. The time of year you are going you need to be on the ridgetops unless there is a big snow event and even then the mature bucks likely won't be coming down until the rut starts.

    Zone 2 Training

    I listened to half the Exo Podcast and bought the Alpinism Book. It came in the mail 2 days ago and I'm already 90 pages in. This has been enlightening to say the least. I've always been a meat head and cardio has always been hard as I could go. Judging by the amount of sheep in everyone's...

    Idaho's Hunting and Advanced Technology Working Group Coming

    Correct me if I am wrong but aside from the Cell Cams aren't those other things already illegal? I haven't cracked in to that part of the regs recently .

    Idaho's Hunting and Advanced Technology Working Group Coming

    Another concern is that it has been proven that winters, disease and predation are killing more animals and hunter success is a drop in the bucket compared to the other 3. Hunter success has not drastically risen and in many areas has decreased. Don't believe me? Take a long, 60-70 mile walk...

    Idaho's Hunting and Advanced Technology Working Group Coming

    My concern is that as long range shooters we rely on a lot of technology such as ballistic computers, rangefinders and our "tactical" scopes for dialing. If we don't put some dogs in this fight we very well could lose the right to use them in Idaho.

    Idaho's Hunting and Advanced Technology Working Group Coming

    Idaho is about to seriously embrace some Fudd Culture and if you hunt here and enjoy long range hunting your time to speak up is coming. Once again we as hunters are our own worst enemy but we will have the chance to possibly influence regulations going forward. Here's the link to the press...

    Sold ATACR 5-25X56 F2 MOAR

    I am selling my ATACR 5-25X56 F2 MOAR. Optic is in good shape, only hunted with 1 season. It does have some ring marks (pictured.) $2100 shipped with Nightforce rings, scope covers, and sunshade. I hate to sell as this is an amazing optic but I'd like to switch to Mils. This is a long shot but I...

    6mm Fury?

    I'd build one. I wish the Fury components were more readily available. Hopefully we'll see more of it once the military gets it's stockpiles.

    Remaking Berger Factory 6.5 Creedmoor Ammo

    Yeah I'm going to start with what I have, which is a lot of R16 and might even give 26 a try before I go out and buy a bunch of 555 or 550.

    Remaking Berger Factory 6.5 Creedmoor Ammo

    Yeah mine is a 24" factory and I am getting 2808 avg. Slow, but very accurate. The load data and the photo of the powder grains on the VV website are kinda pointing toward N550. I think the book max charge is 40.5 gr.

    Remaking Berger Factory 6.5 Creedmoor Ammo

    Here is a close up of the powder. Looks close to RL16 but not quite. Charge weight in the neighborhood of 39 gr, each kernel weighs .02.

    Remaking Berger Factory 6.5 Creedmoor Ammo

    I have a Tikka CTR in 6.5 Creedmoor that I doctored up and it shoots the Berger Factory 130 OTMs very well (10 shot group below.) Any ideas what powder they are using? I have yet to begin my dissection, I have a feeling it's probably N550, can anyone confirm? Also, just got my Sythe TI out of...

    What rifle is missing stock options?

    More options for the Tikka CTR would be nice.

    Has Kryptek fell off the map for clothing?

    I bought some of their stuff because I liked the camo patterns and loved supporting a veteran owned business, but I will not support a company that continues to support and even defend questionable social media personalities. Stone Glacier, Kuiu, First Lite, and Sitka all use better materials...
