    WTS Tikka 6.5 prc Benchmark Barrel

    I have the same barrel on my Tikka T3 and it is easily the most accurate gun I have.

    Osso Bucco

    I used a fine blade but couldn’t rinse all the shards. Maybe I’ll try again. How to you stabilize the bone to cut it?

    Osso Bucco

    I would like to make it with the bone intact, but I can’t seem to get all the bone shards off using a reciprocal saw. I now filet the shanks and slice them and it’s fine, maybe not as good as with the bone, but you only have to bite into a couple of bone shards to know that a reciprocal is not...

    Do you have experience with a sled for hauling out game?

    Here's one quartered bull on a sled. I don't recommend for long hauls, but I think half of it at a time would be doable.

    Do you have experience with a sled for hauling out game?

    I've used sleds and they help a lot but those roll up plastic ones are garbage unless you happen to shoot your elk on a football field. The first little hump will roll the sled and you'll have to right it, then tie the elk back on. My grandson and I pulled out a quartered big bull on a heavy...

    Do you feel the edge?

    I felt it so I fabricated a tin foil hat and it's all better now.

    Taking SS early (62)

    I took it at 70, but there are many calculators on Fidelity and other investments sites to help you optimize the benefit. It's always a gamble, but it's better to see the numbers crunched than just get a bunch of opinions on a forum. My calculation from Fidelity gave several scenarios and what...

    Electrical Tape on muzzle

    The problem with that is that if you got rain or debris in the barrel you would never know that it caused you to miss. Since the tape is completely harmless I don't see a downside.

    How is fierce doing?

    Don't get too excited about the guarantee. Here's the fine print (the bold italics are mine); PLEASE READ CAREFULLY Before sending your rifle in for an accuracy warranty claim, ensure that you have addressed all possible issues that may be contributing to your inability to achieve the...

    Upgrading from Vortex to Swaro - Why?

    If you weren’t successful at finding elk in the first place, does purchasing a Tier 1 Bino make sense? I have 10x42 NLs and other alpha glass because I love binoculars but don’t expect the magic that some people suggest. You’ll see things a little better and enjoy the search a lot more but elk...

    My girlfriend got bit by a raccoon this evening…

    When I’ve caught a raccoon/skunk/opossum in a live trap I put the trap in a large garbage bag and fill it with exhaust from the lawnmower. A few minutes does the trick and THEN I relocate it. Edit - with the skunk I put the trap in the bag with just the open door exposed before catching...

    Audew jump starter reviews

    I’ve got one and jumped a couple of cars with it initially and it worked fine. Doesn’t seem to want to take a complete charge now so I can’t give it 5 stars. I think there are some better ones out there.

    Any of you have a list of your Firearms?

    I made a list and included all the details I know about the gun, including the history if I have it and the date of manufacture. Price paid would be great to add, but current value is pointless, since current opinions on that will vary, and it will be different tomorrow.
