    Mule Deer hunting during this historic heat wave?

    So, I am going rifle hunting this weekend with a buck mule deer tag in the high desert mountains East of Bakersfield, CA. Am relatively inexperienced, and when I was planning on going this hunt months ago, I thought going deer hunting in early October would be great. Now, there is record...

    Why am I so much more accurate with a .22 pistol than a centerfire?

    I am trying to understand why I am consistently more accurate shooting my .22's offhand as opposed to my centerfires? For example, I have a .22 Glock model 44 that is similar in dimensions to a Glock 19 9mm, but I am WAY more accurate with the .22 version than I am with the 9mm version. In...

    No Big Game Tags Drawn, is this normal?

    Hello, I am somewhat of an "adult-onset" hunter and last year was the first year I hunted any big game. For this year, I applied for a lot of tags (Deer, antelope, bear, and turkey) in my home state of Nevada, both any legal weapon and where possible, muzzleloader, and I also applied for...

    Rocky Mountain All Terrain tires?

    Looking to get some tough tires for my F150 that will be OK for driving highway speeds on paved highways AND also able to handle some pretty rocky, rough desert dirt roads. Thinking about these: https://www.americastire.com/buy-tires/rocky-mountain-all-terrain But open to suggestions as well...

    Happy Wheelgun Wednesday!

    I’m starting to build up a collection of wood and stainless steel wheel guns. So far I’ve got a Pietta 1858 New Model Army in .44 blackpowder, Ruger Single Ten in 22lr, S&W 629 in .44 mag, and a Ruger GP 100 Match Champion in .357 mag. Suggestions for what I should think about getting next...

    Make my day Mr. Grizzly, make my day

    Finally got a CCW loaded for bear for when I go fish, hike, or hunt in “Grizzly Country”. I love the looks of the stainless steel with the carved wood grips. It’s not comfortable to shoot, but I can make a satisfyingly big hole in a ten inch circle target at 7 yards.

    Is the Expen$$$ive Turkey ammo worth it?

    I have never hunted turkey with a shotgun before. Where I live, my only semi-realistic chance to hunt turkey will be at a wildlife Management Area that only allows non-toxic shot size 2 or smaller. I was in Bass Pro yesterday, and I saw they had only one particular type of 12 gauge non lead...

    Lightweight and durable scope for a bolt action 5.56?

    I am getting a new Ruger American Gen II ranch bolt action rifle with a 16” barrel, rifle should weigh about 6.3lbs and comes with a Picatinny rail. I’m thinking this would be a good lightweight fast handling and low recoil gun to take hiking in the mountains, where I might have short lasting...

    Sold Ruger made Marlin 1895 SBL 45-70, gently used

    Update as of 1/1/2024, sale pending. I impulsively bought a gorgeous stainless steel Ruger Made Marlin 1895 SBL a few months ago. But the recoil is more than I’ve found I can consistently shoot well. I’ve only shot about 48 rounds total through it. It came with a threaded barrel with a...

    Wayne E. Kirch WMA in Nevada?

    Anyone know if the dove and other bird hunting opportunities at Wayne E. Kirch WMA are worth the the 3 hour drive from Las Vegas? I've hunted Overton WMA and Pahranagat WMA's before for mixed results, but never made the near twice as long drive to Kirch. Also curious if the campground there is...
