    Quitting Alcohol

    I’m in a profession where I see the result of addiction daily. In the last year I’ve seen 3 coworkers die from alcoholism all who had living parents. My boys might now have a problem but based on family history there is about a 65% chance it will be ruinous for them. I told my 9 year old that if...

    MONTANA TO TEXAS - a possible move

    Hahah Hell. Texas is just a bunch of wild ass transplants form MS, TN, and KY who wanted some free land from Mexico.

    Quitting Alcohol

    This is spot on. I’ll hit 10 years in April. I’ve had 1000 social temptations since for why I should have a drink but I don’t drink anymore. It’s that simple. Drinking is the worst me. I could have a 6 pack today and everything would be fine but I’m 100% positive how it would end. I’ll...

    Leica 2400r rangefinder question .

    I have the 1600r. It’s gives 2 ranges with the second being angle comp. To get this feature on the 1600 you have to pick a ballistic profile. I had a bunch of questions and finally got a rep on the phone. To have the rangefinder accurately utilize temp/pressure you have to put 59 degrees and...

    Alaska Sheep Hunt Pricing

    Solid idea. When sheep was a “if I show up fit, good mindset, solid marksman, listen to the guide” I have a very high chance of killing a ram then I think the old structure works. While the population is in recovery I would be more than happy to follow your proposed structure but I’m not in a...

    Wading boots for AK float

    Did a 7 day float up there in August and just wore standard wading boots. I have those lightweight Simms ones you listed and they are great also. Since you won’t be doing a ton of walking I’d err on the side of roomy so you can add thick socks if it ends up being colder than forecasted.

    What rifle for hunting with irons?

    https://pre64win.com/collections/rifles/products/30-govt-06-rifle-1939 Something like this. I had a low comb pre-64 featherweight with rear peep. I could easily hit 5 for 5 on an 8 inch plate at 150 offhand. Irons are very capable sighting systems. Where they start to suck is low light.

    Anyone removed the foam and block from a Tikka Stock?

    Messing around with the idea of a lightweight tikka. Was considering a short 308 superlite cut close to the flutes and started messing with my 30-06 T3x and noticed you could remove foam and a block from the stock. A ounce savings but the stock definitely has a hollow sound. Anyone tried this...

    Lightweight Tikka Action?

    Has anyone had one slabbed instead of the drilled out pockets? Wondering what the weight difference is? Either way I’m going down this rabbit hole for sure.

    All Time High Stock Market

    Was just talking about this with a friend. 2 people we know who are very intelligent pulled money out of the market because it was about to tank and now it’s up 20%. I don’t doubt it will tank again but I’m no where near needing the money and trying to time a dip doesn’t seem to work
