    What would have happened if I would have shot this round?

    Is it a split neck or a fold in the brass? Measure the neck diameter. Good chance you never would have got the bolt closed if it is too big. Juat my guess and others will have more knowledge than myself. If neck diamter is normal it would have went bang and you may or may not notice. If...

    How to extend temp rating of sleeping bag

    You will be fine. Took my 20 degree wm to minus 9 once. Used some of the tricks above. Hand warmers in down booties are a great addition. If you are truck camping through your bag inside a cheap sleeping bag....like the bug rectangle ones. You will be hot in that set up.

    Best for packing elk out

    Don't let a pack keep you from hunting elk. Spend as much or as little as you want. I used a $90 North Face back pack that I found on clearance. It packed more elk then I can remember for 20 years. One of my biggest pack outs was with an external frame that you wouldn't pay $1.50 at a...

    Few questions as Im new to the 300 WSM

    180 in lead is a good (mono's are longer for the same weight). When you get over 180ish and a factory SAMI rifle the bullet ends up seated deep into the case. This just means you loose room for powder. Then your magnum isn't performing at it's potential. Can it shoot heavier than...

    Arizona Late Season Bull Elk - Canyon Question

    Calling will do you no good. Still hunting is pretty hard for really experienced elk hunters and I wouldn't recomend if you want to trophy hunt. Glass, glass, and maybe glass some more. Keep changing angles and locations.

    Portable Camp Stoves at Lowes

    I'm done with modifications and ready to test. My plan is to use my titanium 3 inch pipe from lite outdoors for the stove pipe. I bought a flange off Amazon. Then cut a 3 inch hole in the top with a dremmel (my hole saw was too dull). Originally I planned to rivet but decided the stove...

    RL19 and 180 AB in 300WSM

    The 2 most important variables you can change are bullet and powder. Change one at a time and see how the gun likes it. It is unlikely that changing powder volume or seating depth, etc. Will drastically improve accuracy that is already not good.

    Slug vs Buck shot

    I tested the pattern on buckshot out of a mossing Shockwave (super short barrel). The buckshot at 10yds wasn't much bigger of a pattern than the slug. So it seems the benefit of buckshot just isn't there. Breneke all the way.

    OnX road question

    I guarantee that Onyx doesn't have that level of information. Heck in order to really know you often need to spend time at the local courthouse going through old paper files. And even then there is a lot of unknowns.

    Bear attack or homicide in Montana

    I worked with a guy who was drug out of his tent by a lion. He had the scars and newspaper stories to prove it. So it has happened at least once!

    20 gauge slug gun help with purchase

    Here is the update. I bought the stainless model from The Modern Sportsman in MN. They were great to work with. I called and they went in the back and grabbed the gun off the shelf. They took photos of the barrel nut connection and it looked great. So I bought it and sent it to my ffl in...
