    Montana Rifle Co, Shoot2Hunt, and Rokslide Rifle

    Only reason to go to McDonald's is that their coffee is better than Starbucks. It doesn't taste like a pile of burnt beans. Just have to bring along your own real cream and sugar. Teasing like a Starbucks barista for a tip.

    Scope mount issues

    I have encountered some issues with mounting a scope on a Winchester M70 Featherweight long action. This is my first one to mount myself. I am using the Leupold standard two-piece bases and standard medium rings. I have the scope as far back as possible without contacting the front mount, but I...

    Questions for Form and other "small caliber for big game" folks

    Thoughts and more questions. Things to remember about Bell taking elephants. He started with 6.5s, then moved up to 7mm after seeing that he was having bullet deflection, not straight wound channels. He was also shooting military FMJ ammo and taking only brain shots at close distances...

    IOS 18 is available

    Possibly already discussed, and I missed it. Can satellite messages be received by an Android phone, and can they message back? Is TMobile the only provider setting up StarLink for phones in the future?

    Don’t be brand loyal. Mix and match what works best for you. Do you run hot/cold/dry/sweat easy.

    Dealer Included Lifetime Powertrain Warranties

    My GF has one on a Subaru, that she had to pay for (bumper to bumper lifetime). The dealership or a certified Subaru dealership has to do all the maintenance for warranty to be honored. She gets a discount at the dealer she purchased from for most regular maintenance. It has definitely paid for...

    Current CPW commissioners promoting proposition 127 with lies.

    I might have missed it. Is there a list of all representatives to email on this? I saw the ones of certain gov agencies, but wanting to mass-mail every rep individually that represents CO at the state to the federal level. I'm an out-of-state trying to support the NO vote and make sure...

    Africa Hunts

    I am starting to look at hunting Africa. While I am working through past posts on Africa, what countries should I look at, outfitters/PH's? I have traveled some time to hunt in the US but never overseas. What are things that I should consider? TIA.

    Down booties for stand hunting?

    I do a combination of most things listed, depending on the situation. My feet are the first thing to get cold since they sweat a good bit. As for scent, I don't worry about it. If I am not out hunting I'm not going to have a chance at one. If super worried about it put the boots you walk in with...

    My gear/pack layout from base layers to binos

    I liked the LL Bean Commando sweater when I was with the Post Office and walking routes a lot (10+ miles daily). Wore that sweater and a very lite Marino base layer from the mid 30s and lower. I don’t ever recall being cold even when I was pretty wet from light rain. Would layer appropriately...

    New truck?

    Rusted fenders I believe has a lot to do with geographical location also. Here in the upper mid-west brine salt is applied all winter in rediculous volume. There is no car that is over 3 years old, has driven through the winter, and does not have some kind of rust. The brine just seeps into...
