    Squats vs Walking Lunges

    Thanks for the info guys! Way more than I expected, and much appreciated. I'll ditch the Smith machine, and add in what y'all have suggested, though I may have to goog some of those movements. I'll keep y'all updated

    Squats vs Walking Lunges

    On a packout last year, I realized I wasn't as ready as I thought. On trail with heavy weight, where I'm not having to pick my feet up real high, I can rock out all day. Off trail, which I hadn't really done, I just plain sucked. I need to be able to safely move heavy weight through...

    Squats vs Walking Lunges

    Walking lunges I'll roll with 2 40lb dumbells. The squats, I can get a bit higher weight if I don't break 90*, but if I get real deep, 5 reps at 125 is tough for 3 sets

    Squats vs Walking Lunges

    Thanks guys, sounds like the lunges feel like they're doing more cause I can handle more reps then.

    Squats vs Walking Lunges

    Just some notes. I've got some big hunts in September. All deep backcountry, all solo. I'm in fairly good shape, but feel like I'm lacking in core/trunk. Packouts through deadfall have me concerned.

    Squats vs Walking Lunges

    Both seem to target similiar muscles. I feel like I'm getting more benefit from the lunges. It may be because I'm just not real good at the squat too. No athlete here and haven't done weight training until the last 12-18 months. Walking lunges are done with dumbells, and the squats I'm using...

    Tikka direct ultralight scope ring options

    Yeah, with a longer scope body it would have a bit more room with this contour. UM recommended the micro height, but they weren't in stock. Glad I went with the lows. I prefer it close, and that's just about perfect for me. Hopefully somebody has a pic of a larger contour barrel with a larger...

    Tikka direct ultralight scope ring options

    I had the Talleys and had no issues on a Superlite in 300 WM. I went back with UM when I swapped scopes. The UM's are on a totally different level, and I'm glad I spent the money on them.

    Need Help: Random ‘slow’ rounds

    Any possibility you have a scale issue? I use an old school RCBS, and haven't tried an electronic one. Do you have a scale you could verify with?

    Anyone have experience with a 20 inch 300wm?

    Here's a pic from the 2023 season. Different setup now, and I much prefer a bigger brake. I'll have it at the range in a bit and grab another

    Anyone have experience with a 20 inch 300wm?

    Here's some 178 ELDX factory loads run through a 20" Superlite. I had no problem getting 2950 with 180 Berger handloads. I'm finishing up some 168's with Varget that I might run through today. I'll post those if you're interested. I've got an APA brake on this rifle. Very mild recoil. Tried it...

    15x56/18x56 Bino Comparison questions

    @gr8fuldoug could help. FWIW, i was looking for 15x bino's, and noticed the GPO Passion HD's had a slightly larger FOV than the Swaro's and near 10 oz lighter IIRC. I've never looked through the Swaro's, but doug said the GPO's were on par with 15x SLC's. They are lighter than my 8x42's. Very nice

    .223 for bear, mountain goat, deer, elk, and moose.

    I know this has been rehashed over and over, and this question has been answered 200 times probably already. I'm outta screen time and trying to decide. I've got an ID elk and deer tag. Looks like no caliber minimums. I've spent a thousand bucks in the last month trying different loads in my...

    Boot Sizing Reccomendation

    Thought I'd update for anyone who may have a similiar question. I mentioned the Hoka 11.5's bein a snug fit. I went with the Birksdal 12's so far. i put about 25 miles on them, and thought I was good. I then covered about 6 miles that had a steep section, about 1100' total, with 57lbs. On the...
