    .410 Shotgun for Backpacking

    No, sorry.

    Drones that are not DJI

    You're scouting for game on military installations? I really liked my old $700 Parrot Anafi. The Blue version built for the army is good, too but at $15,000 it really needs to be. I'm also a fan of Freefly for larger airframes.

    SCOTUS to hear "bump-stock" case!

    Agreed. We should make everything legal for all citizens to own except helicopters. Too scary.

    Land surveying is a good option if you get an associates or bachelor's degree for it and plan to get a professional license. Unlicensed party chiefs aren't making six figures where I live. If you can pass the license tests in multiple states, you can enable a company to pursue work across a...

    Long barrels, short forearms

    It's on purpose. Everyone is cutting back to 18-20 inches to run suppressors now. Just pick the length you like and have it cut back.

    16" deer gun

    If you haven't built one yet, I'd suggest a 7mm-08 Remington or 338 Federal since you already ruled out a .308 that would be perfect for this.

    Who "owns" the threads on RS?

    You caught me. I guess I might as well re-post this photo I found of Bobby from the same hunt:

    Who "owns" the threads on RS?

    I forgot the fishnet.

    What's your favorite caliber?

    I've killed one whitetail with a .277 bullet, but most with .358s in different weights out of multiple cartridges. The .358 is my favorite diameter because "what's life without whimsy?" Really every rifle caliber from .223 to .510 is exactly the same. They all kill. Dead is dead. Lots of threads...

    The average age of a PLS is early 60s. 40 years of being told you're wrong by people who don't understand that measurements have tolerances will wear you down.

    Careers

    Try to get PMs to send you on site visits with field crews for the projects you're working on. Work with the PLS reviewing the surveys and let them know you'd like to help with any of the survey office work you can on your projects and learn how it works because you're interested in getting...

    .410 Shotgun for Backpacking

    I'm changing my answer. I like this Charles Daly better than the Iver Johnson: https://www.charlesdaly.com/product/930.282/101-single-barrel-shotgun-black-synthetic-410-20-bbl#specs I wish the 28 gauge single shot came in a 20" barrel with a wooden stock and interchangeable chokes.

    2.5 oz Field Dressing Kit

    Amazon. Just search "#22 disposable scalpel" online. I couldn't find disposable ones that used the same size blades as a Havalon.

    2.5 oz Field Dressing Kit

    If I'm going on a backpack hunt, I'm usually pretty prepared and pack those. This is mostly for my typical quick morning or evening sits where I'll drag a gutted deer less than a mile to my truck and drop it off at the local processor as a donation to the food bank.

    2.5 oz Field Dressing Kit

    I'm tired of forgetting pens or zip ties, only having one rubber glove, not being able to find my knife, etc. when I have some unexpected free time to run out for a quick hunt. This week I put together a couple vacuum-packed Lightweight Field Dressing Kits to put in each of my hunting bags and...

    OFFICIAL Peterson Cartridge Customer Support Thread

    I'd be stoked if a cartridge company would do a run of 30-06 brass with no head stamp so I could convert it.

    Alec Baldwin shooting

    I don't see this as arrogant. A lot of times a defendant will wait months for a court date only to have it moved back while prosecution works to build a case. These things can go on for years and most of the time a defendant will just want it to be over so the waiting and wondering can end.

    Fudd?

    Just so I understand this comment better, do you mean trail cams with or without a feature that sends real-time imagery straight to your phone?
