I'd like to get a canoe. Float, camp and fish down smaller, somewhat quick rivers. Possibly some lake use but not likely or often. Some duck hunting but for that it'll mostly just be walked beside and used to keep the kid and decoys in.
What type or style am I looking for? Aluminum, plastic or...

Is there a downside of going with a 1:8 243 win over a 6cm? I'm liking the idea of going with a light recoil 6mm for target shooting and hunting. I don't shoot or hunt at ranges that would push either cartridges limits. I do hand load.
Does anyone have any experience with quick release rings that return fairly close to zero? Fairly close to me would be 1 MOA or so shift being acceptable. Maybe even a little more. I have a rifle I'd like to set up this way for a particular location I hunt. Sometimes where I sit the max shot...
All this losing zero talk has me wondering. I have a 35 Whelen Rem 7600 in need of a scope. I had always planned on putting a leupold 2-7 or 1.5-5 on it. As they're proving to be less and less reliable, what is a good replacement for a non dialing hunting scope with low magnification and doesn't...
I have a Redfield revolution 2-7x33 with what I believe is the Accu-range Reticle. It's a lot like a leupuld LR duplex but with a circle around the crosshair. I like the scope, but I doesn't really have a place in my set ups now. Scope is in nice shape with just faint ring marks where it was...
I've been loading for a 30-06 for a little bit. Worked my way through 1 partial pound of reloader 15, then a full one. Charge weight is 55.0gr. My thrower throws right at 54.9 or 55.0 pretty consistently.
I opened up the second new pound of powder and now it throws at 54.4 or 5 every time. Is...
Looking for a durable rain jacket to keep in the pack for rain events and periods of heavy snow. I belive all 3 of these jackets have similar features. Does one (or another similar jacket) stand out for durability or breathability? Don't really care about camo either way. Weight isn't a huge...
Novice reloader, was sorting brass and noticed my 2x fired Norma brass has a ring around the case where 1x fired (first firing was factory loaded) doesn't have the ring. My load is book max but shows no pressure signs. Cases are FL sized
Is that ring always an indication of case head failure? I...
I have Lee 4 die set with shell holder for 450 Bushmaster. Only used to size some of the brass that's included but never got around to loading ammo.
Also have 143pcs of once fired 450 bushmaster brass, mostly Hornady, some Barnes and maybe some Winchester. Some has been resized but most have...
Does anyone have a foolproof way of finding eye dominance on a kid? My boy is going to be 4 soon and loves everything outdoors. He watches me shoot and really wants a bow. Looking at kids bows now, it's crazy the amount of adjustment you can have in a bow. The low end of the range should...

I have a load for my 7-08 with 140 accubonds that shoots great. Considering trying the 140 BTs though for lower cost shooting and possibly switching over to them completely. I see the 7mm 120 BT is regarded as a fairly tough bullet compared to other BTs, how is the 140? Ranges I will be shooting...
I'd like to get a somewhat compact 30 cal suppressor. I understand I'll be giving up some performance for length and weight savings. What's my best bet these days? It's not strictly for hunting rifles, it will see some high volume shooting as well.

Curious if anyone has had a chance go mess with the 25 cal 134 ELDM? Specifically in 25-06. Any powder recommendations? Also, any idea what twist rate is going to be required for this bullet?
Plex reticle. Glass is in great shape. Couple small nicks on the scope caps and light ring marks. $100 shipped. Prefer payment by USPS money order, venmo or PayPal F&F to avoid dealing with the PayPal 1099
Bought some Black Ovis merino last week during the sale. Trying it on, it seems much more itchy on my skin compared to the Minus33 stuff I've used. Is it a break in thing or do I just need to return these layers and stick with what I know works?
