    Best Hands Free Rifle Carrier, By Jake Lamphier

    I wrap my Slik Sling in the other direction, and hook it around the top of my frame inside of my load lifter (SG Sky 5900) It sucks it up to the side of the pack instead of my shoulder. Still slides out smooth. I've actually been contemplating the Kifaru bottom. (I have one rifle on a Trekker...

    2022 MULE DEER MEAT POLE

    My brother's 185" and my 168¼" Wyoming bucks. I used most of the season, but never saw the caliber buck that I was searching for. (.... until the damn day after my tag was filled when a 190+ jumped out from below a fishing hole nowhere near the backcountry... fml). I'd passed for two days on...

    New Lightweight Saddle Help

    It turns out that I already knew a custom saddle maker. (I had no idea that was his side hustle). I am going to get with him and get weird with it. He's excited to try some different things. So, that will be the plan for next year. I got another saddle to use for this year. Gonna try some new...

    Glock 20 Won't Run

    Sounds like you need a heavier spring. Marks hint at too much slide velocity. Magazine is probably screwing you as well. I ran hard cast in a .460rowland conversion, and busted the front edge of the magazine... (not as easily noticeable as one might think). Also, if you've run a lot of Hardcast...

    Who uses the UDAP Bear Fence?

    I hit it in my socks instead of rubber soled boots, and it was a big difference. It had a good ground. I ran an AN90, for a year, but didn't really feel like it was a big enough difference to justify the weight (unless im packing livestock). A 20 still keeps my horses penned. The grizz that hit...

    New Lightweight Saddle Help

    The halter ditch wasn't so much of a weight savings, as a why the hell do I need this type of thing. Minimize the gear I take and maximize its use. It's technically more like an English bridle style. I could care less if it's "western", which seems to be a focus for most horsefolk. I see a lot...

    New Lightweight Saddle Help

    After Googling what Wade style is, it seems that is mostly what I have been looking at. I don't know what brands are quality/junk or lesser known makers. I figured Circle Y makes High Horse, so it wouldn't be total junk. I focus on lightening everything as much as I can. Coming from the...

    New Lightweight Saddle Help

    It's time for a new lightweight hunting saddle. My Circle Y Pioneer with semi-QH bars & Flextree worked well with my mules, but my new hunting horses are bit too broad backed. They are 1200+ QH &1300lb+ QH ¼ draft. I was eyeing a High Horse cordura saddle with full QH bars, but I really don't...

    Hobble, stake, highline, elec fence?

    I prefer electric so that they can pack in the groceries at night (and not take up my valuable time during the day). Plus I can move them around more than a highline. It doesn't take much of a charger, if they are accustomed to electric fences (I use my AN20).

    Preference on dies

    When the cartridge allows, i use two different brands. I have really been impressed with the Whidden click-adjustable sizing dies. RCBS Matchmaster seating dies are mostly what I use, now (I like the bullet feed window).

    Copper bullet, no data, is weight or length the priority for start point?

    Solid copper bullet question, in the experimental realm: when choosing a load range to start in, do you focus more on the bullet length or the bullet weight??? There is no data, and no direct equivalent. I have an idea of where I'm headed, but interested to hear what more advanced reloaders...

    Is the stand alone GPS a thing of the past?

    My GPS has never failed me in cold weather. I've had more than one phone either rapidly lose battery in the sub-freezing temps, or restart out of airplane mode (draining the battery). I'm not in spots where I can afford to have a dead navigation device. I leave in the dark and come back in the...

    Coyote ar platform

    22-250 is going to be an AR-10 cartridge. Or a small-frame AR-10 (which is AR-15 sized receivers to save weight, and takes a unique barrel extension). I've never been around one, so i cannot vouche for how they feed..... which is a possible issue. Be careful because AR-10 parts are not...

    Favorite Backcountry Gear 2021

    Rainer Knives Fastpak: this dude nailed every aspect of an ultralight fixed blade. Thick enough not be brittle, with well thought out grind and profile. Ergonomics are great, just wish there was some jimping on the spine. Elmax steel holds a damn good edge at a crazy good price. Argali Kodiak...

    Favorite/best headlamp?

    Did no one notice the LED's are different in the Sofirn and the PEAX??? I got excited for a bit, added a few to the cart, then read the specs on the two. The PEAX is an XM-L2 @ 1000 lumens. The Sifrn D25LR has an LH351D 5000K CRI 90 @ 500 lumens. Definitely not the same headlamp. Same shell...

    Cheek piece adhesive recommendation

    I'm using one on my new turkey shotgun. Going lighter and more streamlined for my mountain rifle.

    Cheek piece adhesive recommendation

    I use Dual Lock at work. It is good stuff. It would work great, but it's a bit Thicker than what I want. (Funny enough, my backup plan is to heat gun a few bulged pockets and make room for Dual Lock.... since I have few feet that I've "tactically acquired").

    Cheek piece adhesive recommendation

    I need suggestions on which adhesive strip / type to attach my kydex cheek piece to my stock. Something that holds in tough conditions (very cold), but will not rip the paint off if I need to remove it (i.e. semi-easily removable with a release agent). I recently rebarreled my action with a...

    Rattle Can Sage Brush Camo paint suggestions

    Any paint color / type / brand suggestions for a Sagebrush Camo??? **Hopefully from someone that has done it, and not just guessing like I can do myself** I have to revamp my .204 AR-15, for the second time. (I need to build it with a forward assist for quieter loading). Last time I did...
