    Leupold 2800 vs. Vortex 4000

    I'm needing to get a rangefinder that will range animals (deer, elk, etc.) reliably to 1000 yds. I've narrowed it to these two, but am open to any suggestions you have. Trying to keep it around $500, but $700 isn't out of the question. If you have 1000+ yd experience (good or bad) with these or...

    New Idea For Game Management

    I was talking with an old friend who's worked in game management and conservation his whole life. Our conversation was about the winterkill across the West (particularly Wyoming and Idaho) and how quickly our mule deer, antelope, and elk will recover (yes, elk winterkill too). He said " If the...

    ONX woes

    I've been a longtime ONX user, pretty much since it first came out. I had one problem a few years back, called customer service and was back using it in a matter of minutes. This weekend I was out of town and wanted to use ONX to find an address, opened the app, and a message popped up for an...

    Consistent 28 Nosler loads

    I have a new 28 Nosler, it's a Seekins PH2. I bought my first 28 in 2020, but have only shot factory ammo in it so far. I'm in the beginning stages of reloading for the Seekins now. I have Berger 195 EOL and Hornady 175 ELD-X to go with Ramshot LRT powder. So far I've gotten decent accuracy...

    Stealthcam Fusion x problems

    In short, I'm having tons of trouble with 2 Stealthcam Fusion x cameras. I bought my first Fusion in March of '21. Set up my account on the app, tested it at home, worked great. Set it on a bear bait and it worked flawlessly for the entire season. The location of this bait has 1-2 bars of cell...

    Pellet smoker problems

    Hi all, I'm looking to buy a pellet smoker for infrequent use. I already have a Brinkmann propane smoker that I have dialed in pretty well and that will continue to be my primary smoker. Occasionally, I don't have time to babysit my smoker for most of a day due to other engagements, so I need...

    Idaho Off Road Vehicle Restrictions

    How many hunters on this forum had interactions or dealt with people breaking off road vehicle laws in Idaho mainly? Idaho's restrictions have been in place for the better part of 20 years, yet I can watch dozens of hunters riding and hunting illegally every day of every fall season. I...

    7mm-08 139 SST options

    I'm looking for loads in 7mm08 with the 139 SST. My regular load, 47.6 gr W760, isn't doing well in a new rifle I picked up. My Bergara Ridge and my wife's Rem model 7 both shoot this load well, but a new model 7 just barfs the bullets into about a 4" group. I have Rl17, IMR 4350, Rl19, Rl16 and...

    Best Bear Spray?

    I am being sent to do a work project in an area with a heavy population of grizzlies in late August. I've hunted, guided, and camped around Grizzlies a lot, but it's been several years since then. The spray I've actually used was UDAP, and it was on a young black bear that wouldn't stay out of...

    Ruger American Magazine Issue

    I purchased a Ruger American compact for my son in November of 2018. I was a little skeptical about the plastic rotary magazines, but the online reviews I could find said they were reliable. Fast forward to May of 2020. My son has a little over 500 rounds down the pipe, and the 2 magazines are...

    IMR 4831 in 6.5 Man Bun

    I have around 3 lbs of IMR 4831 that's a few years old. It used to be my go-to for 30-06 and .280, but other powders have replaced it. I've been noticing reloader using some really slow burning powders in 6.5 CM (RL26), and was wondering if anyone had taken a stab at IMR 4831. Seems like it...

    Idaho hunter stats

    I came across this article on IDF&G website a few days ago. Elk and deer harvest numbers were down (big surprise...), and hunter numbers were down as well. I've seen it stated many times in many threads that NR numbers are staying the same, while R numbers are increasing, but now we all know...
