Howdy.
Last weekend I was out for a hike and watched a cat chase a couple deer a couple hundred yards.
This was 10am.
I went home and ran errands with wife and headed back up getting to the area at 4:15.
I set the e call up in a mahogany 130 yards away and 700 yards from where the cat was...
Come apart at the seems.
Are there boots less prone to it than others.
Both Thors and Colorados have done it pretty quickly to me.
Maybe I'm on my toes to much and need to go with a less stiff option?
Is a full leather upper the way to go?
Just finished the last workout of the 4 week kettlebell program.
Workouts take a kettlebell or two and a pull up bar. Everything is around 50 minutes and you follow along with the video.
I didn't think I would like having to watch the video throughout the workout but grew to like it.
Lots of...
In practicing for the cold bore challenge I've noticed that I don't always do everything I can to facilitate success.
Such as utilizing options for rear rifle support. Double checking bubble and so on.
What are you guys doing to ensure that doesn't happen to you?
Thanks
What have folks used and liked or recommend for a bipod and connection to the chassis?
Will be general hunting but mostly backpacking and occasionally in a horse scabbard.
Does not need to be capable of sitting heights.
Would prefer some type of quick connect/disconnect.
Hopefully not much...
First I want to be like mtwardern when I grow up but we did a mini adventure on the Wasatch Front yesterday.
Took the two oldest a couple miles up to a nice hidden meadow off trail.
Once to the destination dug out the fire ring and cut some oak.
Then started on the snow cave
Then a break...
Looking for options with a 18in 6.5 PRC with 8 twist.
Currently using 147 ELD-M with Retumbo.
Getting a fairly compressed load at 57 grs. Went up to 58.4 with no pressure signs. But really have to crunch powder during seating.
57.2 grs is giving 2630 via shooting chrony. 58.4 gave an error so...
Will have an 18in barrel for 6.5 PRC on Rem SA clone in a couple months, hopefully.
Question is would using a lighter bullet than the 147 ELD-M or 156 Berger EOL Elite Hunters be beneficial with the short barrel?
Does a short barrel affect your choice of projectile weight?
Size 10.5.
These do run big. I have Thors in 10.5 and honestly probably need a 9.5 in these.
Unworn but 1.5 years old. Tried to return to Black Ovis but a no go.
$180 TYD lower 48.
Or trade for 6.5 PRC brass
What is the best method for finding a specific gun you want?
I'm on the notify list for a couple of places like Sportsmans Warehouse but are there other options?
I got some Sevr 1.7 all purpose broadheads this spring and shot 1 of them with the practice screw in. Shoots great, seems like a great design as well.
When I filled the quiver (tight spot 5 arrow) the rest of the heads make a significant rattle noise when shooting.
I've tried adjusting the...

Used 200 gram insulation Briksdals.
Size 10 and my foot has flattened or something so I need a 10.5-11
Lots of life left. Tread barely worn but rand is starting to separate on right boot big toe. See pic.
$175 TYD lower 48 west of Mississippi.
Lets talk shipping if you are east.
I'll pay...
I'll be tagging along on a ewe hunt this fall and have been doing a bit of research on identifying a ewe vs a young ram.
Nevada has a nice PowerPoint presentation
Which I'm not smart enough to attach but can be found by googling
"Nevada ewe vs ram"
Are there other resources that I've missed...
