    Sitka 90% jacket. If I knew how much I would love it, I would have bought three. I feel you on the under armour beanie. I have one that I have been using for at least 15 years. I would be extremely disappointed if I lost it. It's easily the best fitting piece of headwear I own. It's a unique...

    6.5 Creedmoor or 7mm-08 for 600 yards an in?

    Punching a similar bullet into my ballistics calculator shows a velocity of about 2150fps at 400yd. Check out the 6.5 kill thread.

    Evidence of sex in Colorado

    The opportune word is "major." As in, not just a little chunk of boneless meat.

    Talking about bacon....

    Also, go to Trader Joe's and buy their Black Forest (might be Boar's Head) bacon. It kicks ass.

    Talking about bacon....

    Cut the strips in half and lay them single layer in your biggest cast iron skillet. Broil on low. When they're almost cooked to your preference, sprinkle with some sort of rib rub (anything with some sweet and spice). Thank me later.

    Build a 6cm, Buy 243 1/8 twist or go with a 6.5cm?

    Anyone care to speculate whether Tikka will drop a 6CM option this year? @mxgsfmdpx you seem to have a bit of a line on them. Any thoughts?

    Evidence of sex in Colorado

    I don't know anything about New Mexico. As far as Colorado, how did you reach that understanding? Post #8 in this thread has a screenshot of the regulations. Point number three clearly states that a detached head is not evidence of sex. Point number four should answer your carcass question. I...

    New world record archery bull

    I have to wonder if the shooter's goofy haired kid took it upon himself to post this publicly for his own following. It was probably a bit of a "facepalm" moment.

    22 Creedmore legal use issues!

    Against my better judgement, I clicked on his linked article. Literally first sentence moment of wtf. "The bullet that struck U.S. Representative Steve Scalise last week was traveling at somewhere between 1,100 and 2,600 feet per second. The projectile, a 7.62 x 39 bullet, hit the House...

    New world record archery bull

    I think most people would shoot that bull, given the tag and a legal opportunity. The better play here would have been for them to post it on their wall and not on Instagram. They had to know it would turn into backlash.

    Federal New Cartridge

    Anyone else think that chick's shooting position up on the rock seemed odd? I guess Federal figured that they can sell a bunch of rifles to people who almost liked the 6.8W and 7prc?

    A Personal Gripe

    I have no issue with it. I wouldn't tell my buddies that I "harvested" a deer, or anyone for that matter, but it does have a tone of specific selection. When state game agencies survey success rates, they typically call them something like a "harvest survey." That sounds quite a bit more...

    Would you buy this scope?

    It doesn't matter. A mil is a mil whether it's yards or meters. You don't have to calculate anything other than your drop at a defined distance. Maybe at 400 yards your correction is 2.2 mils. If it's 400 meters, your correction would still be 2.2 mils. It also makes wind correction easier...

    New world record archery bull

    ^Exactly. I figured it looked like Arizona in the few more pictures I could see on that insta page.

    New world record archery bull

    Twelve over 400" is what gets me. How does a guy do that? Incredible bull to top them all.

    What’s the coolest thing you found in the back country

    There was a picture, I think on here, of an elk that got caught in a avalanche. The skeleton was wedge horizontally in a couple of pines a few feet off the ground. It had some hide remaining but was mostly white bones and appeared to be mostly intact. I used to have it saved but can't find at...
