    Ideas for next duck season…

    Today was the last day of duck season here in Georgia and I’m already looking at next year. This was my first year ever duck hunting and I had a blast. I’m not in a prime location for waterfowl hunting, and I knew that going into it. Of course I killed my share of woodies, a pintail, and a...

    WTS/WTT BE Rampage .250 Spine

    12 arrows, all will need to be re fletched, one is missing the nock. 31 inches, glued in 50 grain inserts. I acquired these and shot them very little. The few that are fletched won’t last long, as the fletching job is poor. Basically buying shafts. $100 OBO or trade me some 100gr BH’s.. Sent...

    Simplifying Bow Setup

    Just some post-season thoughts I’m having as I count down the days until September. Also, I’m intentionally posting this in the whitetail section versus the archery, because I feel i can better reach the audience that id like to hear more thoughts and comments from. I shoot a Mathews V3 31...

    Hunting Land Frustration

    I guess I really just need to vent. My wife’s family owns about 130 acres of beautiful land where we plan on building a home eventually. Until then I can hunt it whenever I want and treat it like it’s mine (if my wife approves of course, since it’s really hers). Lots of deer, no other hunters...

    How to test arrow spine limits

    First, what I have. Mathews V3 31 pulling about 68lbs, set at 29” DL. Shooting RIP TKO’s 250 spine, about 29.5”. 50 grain insert, 100 grain broadhead, roughly 450 grains (not exact). I was going into hunting season with a heavier arrow (about 515 gr) but had a couple uh oh’s and then I...

    B3 Exit Pro Review

    I am in no way qualified to do something like this, but I will anyways. I’m trying to transition from a silverback to a thumb release, and came across this one. I couldn’t find many reviews or much info on it so I went and bought one. I’ll do a little review, maybe someone else is curious. I...

    WTB WTB 7mm-08 Ammo

    My nephew is getting a Ruger American in 7mm-08 for Christmas this year and crazy Uncle Eddie who’s obsessed with guns is in charge of getting ammo. Now they wanna give it to him early so he can use it this season (which I support) but finding ammo in time is the issue. If someone has a couple...

    Shotgun for the wife

    Like many of us here, I have a gun obsession. My wife enjoys hunting with me and has watched me purchase a number of guns since we’ve been together. In the past year I’ve got her a pistol and a hunting rifle that she loves, but now that turkey season is coming up I realized I have plenty of guns...

    Fort Hood Hogs

    I grew up hunting back in Georgia, and now that I’m stationed out here I’m out of a place to hunt. I know you can hunt on post and I wouldn’t be totally against it, but I know it’s a hassle. If anyone knows of a good place around here to kill some pigs, let me know. I’ve got another deployment...

    Hammer Bullets in 6.5 Grendel

    So a short back story, my dad has a 6.5 Grendel that he’s obsessed with although he’s struggled to find a good load for it. He’s found a few that shot around an inch with alright velocities but that didn’t impress an old man who’s been reloading for 35 years. As an early Christmas present I...

    WTS/WTT Tikka Stock and Barrel

    I bought a brand new Tikka for a build and these are my scraps. Came off of a 25-06, never fired, only played with and sat in the box until my custom barrel came in. I don’t have a price, make an offer. If you got something cool to trade, I’ll probably take it. Not looking to get rich, just...

    My First Custom Rifle

    So after about 10 months of waiting altogether I finally got to bring her home today. I’m not sure who all is interested but I’m so proud and happy with this I had to share. I’d like to say that there’s a few things I know and actually do not need people to tell me in this post. I know it’s not...

    Carbon Six Barrels

    I’ve read through a few forums about this company and nearly everyone has been very happy with them. I didn’t start this thread to ask about lead time, but I placed an order with them in early December with a quoted lead time of 4-6 months. I also placed an order with mcmillan about a month...

    Newbie

    I’m hesitant to call myself a true new guy here because I’ve read these forums for so long. I’m just now making an account tho because I’m working on a rifle build and found a scope in the classifieds that I’m hoping sticks around. So I gotta get my post count up and get lucky. I look forward to...
