    Lefty rifle for Alaska

    I agree about the location of the safety. I’m a lefty and my first shotgun was the truly ambidextrous Browning BPS. I’ve tried other shotguns and rifles with other safety locations, but have sold all of them. Now all my rifles have a tang safety, Briowning X-Bolt, Ruger American, Savage, I...

    Mike Tyson VS Jake Paul

    Smart….the guy has a massive tattoo that covers 1/3 of his face. He’s blown over $400M on pigeons, Siberian tigers, bathtubs made of gold and cars for his friends, He’s gone to prison and has bit off another man’s ear. Mike is a lot of things, but I don’t think smart is one of them.

    Stocky stocks and tipsy tuesday

    I’m not privy to it either. I just assume that anybody in this forum who has done research on stocks and been to “Stocky’s” site must know how to properly spell it

    I’m pretty sure that was written like that on purpose.

    Anybody go on multi-day hunts in the backcountry without a stove?

    I have a windburner as well. This past season I opted to not pack it and used the lightweight stove setup. I didn’t miss the windburner at all. Just trying to see if I can/shouldgo even lighter.

    Gheenoe Build

    Living in Florida I see a lot of Gheenoes. I love the look of these boats but i don’t have one. One day i will. I like to get on the Microskiff forums and various FB groups and see all the builds. Glad you are sharing your build on Rokslide. Looking forward to seeing your progress.

    I believe this is the thread (no pun intended) you are referring to. https://rokslide.com/forums/threads/1-2x28-threaded-30-cal-rifles-suppressor-horror-stories.298053/ To the OP, I would suggest reading through all the posts as I think this will give you the answer you are looking for.

    I need to learn to bugle and cow call before September

    When I first started learning to call I would go on long rucks early in the morning and rip off bugles while walking through my neighborhood and listening to calls on the ElkNut app. Any dogs that were outside would start barking and would make even more racket. A few miles from my house I had...

    Exo customer service review

    I’ve only encountered positive things when communicating with EXO’s customer service. Good to know you received the same positive experience. It’s refreshing to see someone on the internet take the time to sing the praises of a company’s customer serivice rather than complaining.

    Improving Grip Strength - Iron Mind Grippers

    I was recently reading a book that suggested using the Iron Mind “Captains of Crush” to improve grip strength. Figured I might try them, but don’t know which strength/weight to get. Anybody used the Iron Mind grippers to improve grip strength? If so, which strength or weight did you start with...

    Got drunk and bought a rifle I don’t need

    It’s probably better that way. Otherwise she’d probably forever guilt you for the reminder of your life and resent any trophy from the hunt that you’d want to hang on the wall.

    7mm-08 short barrel recommendations

    I’ve considered getting a savage lightweight storm in left hand but was hesitant because of the process of going through the custom shop. I haven’t heard of anyone doing this for a LH. How long did it take to get your rifle from the moment you ordered it? What was the extra cost? Why didn’t...

    XBolt Speed 2?

    Thanks

    XBolt Speed 2?

    I was trying to identify what the x-bolt 2 differences are over the original. Browning says there are changes to the receiver, bolt and trigger, but they must be very subtle because I haven’t been able to find any pictures that show a discernible difference.
