    Washing new gear

    I wash them because I’m sure they’re filthy from everyone that touched it from sewing/packing/transport, on the rack in the store, etc. But I also don’t treat my hunting clothes special apart from cold water wash and hang dry to avoid damaging/deteriorating the fabric.

    Rodents in vehicle at trailhead

    What truck do you have? In my Tundra there’s a known spot they get into the cab under the windshield cowl. I added some metal mesh to avoid them getting in.

    Vehicle Security Cameras

    Look into dash cams that can be set up to detect motion/vibration (typically called ‘parking mode’).

    Rain Gear

    I have the Black Diamond Stormline Stretch pants and jacket, and I like them a lot. Good waterproofness and they have a little stretch to them which is nice when hiking in them.

    Hornady Match - grains vs recoil for 6.5cm

    Recently starting shooting my new 6.5cm tikka with Hornady Match 6.5cm. Being fairly recoil shy, I’m wondering if the 120grain rounds would have less recoil? If so, would it be a substantial difference?

    Anyone use the PackAlarm Pro in Grizz Country

    Anyone use the packalarm pro? Sounds like it weights 8oz only. Going on an elk hunt in northern BC this year in an area with high grizzly numbers and thinking this wouldn’t be a bad idea to bring with. https://packalarm.com/

    Which Smallrig Panhead to get?

    Which is the small rig pan head that folks have had good luck with? Looking on Amazon there’s a couple different ones, the CH10 and the CH20. This will be for my first tripod setup (on a budget…), using an Aoka tripod. Thanks!

    I bring a leatherman squirt ps4 backpack hunting, it’s small, light, and super useful. I would want to carry around a larger one like the Wave personally. I have a Wave but keep it in the truck.
