    Who "owns" the threads on RS?

    When RS is having a discussion and say the OP throws a hissy and wants the thread deleted, is that "his" to delete? Several other people may have contributed to the thread in question and those efforts and comments are simply deleted by a mod? Do OP's "own" threads or the rights to those...

    Heavy moisture year, effects on elk location?

    In much of the Rockies, especially in my part of Wyoming, it's been a record year for moisture. First the heavy snowpack from last winter, but then extremely wet conditions throughout the summer have persisted due to very frequent rain. There are marshes and wet areas all over the mountain and...

    Kifaru on sale?

    I see a big sale (30%) on current Kifaru packs through Black Ovis. Is that a new phenomenon? I was under the impression that Kifaru packs didn't go on sale.

    WY Unit 7 becoming General

    I just filled out a survey from WYGF where they're considering options to turn WY Elk 7 into a general license area. There were a couple of options including Type 9, Type 1, and General in different mixtures. The survey said that objective is 5,000 elk and they currently have 12,500 elk in...

    Shooting Spots

    How many people shoot spots? I know 3d is likely more popular in this crowd, but surely we have some paper punchers. Target bow? Full freestyle type setup with magnification and long bars? I'm a target bow weenie though my setup isn't very deluxe. I got it all used and it's sort of cobbled...

    Weather Effects on Elk

    Is there a consensus about weather changes, and their effects on elk? I'm aware that heat will cause them to be more nocturnal. Colder weather can make them more active in the rut and stay out longer during daylight hours. Rain? Storms? Wind? Transitions from nice weather (60's, sun...

    More NR elk licenses in Wyoming?

    I'm sure the "Whining about Wyoming Team" (WWT) will have something else to complain about but this seems like good news for NR in Wyoming...

    Stone Glacier liner material

    Do all SG packs have the mesh liner inside the belt/straps? It looked like the same material that was on my Gen 1 Exo and I hated it. Every dang pine needle in the county would somehow get buried in there and they were a pain to get out. I was surprised to see this on a premium pack but...

    Where did they go? (Scouting question)

    This past weekend, I returned to the exact location I scouted/camped a month ago. Last month, there were elk EVERYWHERE. Literally every meadow I could glass from the high point where I camped, I'd see Elk. Even had one barking at me all night while in my tent, both nights... Almost all cows...

    Greg McHale

    I've grown to really like this guy and what he's putting up in his "TV" show. Legit endurance athlete hunting hard. Impressive overall. A buddy of mine raced professionally in some of the Eco challenge type races and that's a burly endeavor for sure. I don't love the "life coach" type theme...

    Kifaru moving to Wyoming

    Anybody know more about this potential move to Wyoming for Kifaru? Where in Wyoming? I know Aron posted about traveling to Lander a while ago but I haven't heard anything else. Just curious.

    Double Barrel Crossbow,

    Excalibur has developed a very cool crossbow for 2021! The twins trike is a pretty cool looking bow! 2 arrows, 2 strings, 2 triggers, 4 limbs, one frame. A "double barrel" crossbow, top and bottom, maybe its more of an over under crossbow now that I think about it. Very cool IMO...

    Selling Guns and Ammo

    Is there a good place to learn about being able to sell guns/ammo safely, without violating any laws? I have 970 rounds of 5.56 federal and 970 rounds of .223 winchester ammo, all 55 grain that isn't going to do what I need it to do precision wise. I bought it confidently with the idea that it...

    Grandpa's rifle

    I'm trying to figure out the date of mfg for this .270 win Remington 721 that was my grandfathers. The more I search online, the less clear I am about sorting this out. Any Remington experts out there that can help me out? The pictures below include what i believe is the serial number but...

    Bulk Ammo

    What is reasonable to expect out of bulk ammunition? In my new aspiration of learning rifle techniques, I took out my Browning .22 and did some shooting. To say that the accuracy was unimpressive would be an understatement. 100 yards was somewhat challenging and while I'd like to say it was...

    5.56 bolt gun?

    I was cruising Sportsman's for a bow for my lady, when a crew of employees walked by with a cart of ammunition. Having read a bit about the ammo shortage and hoarding, my interest was piqued... I sort of impulse bought a box of 1k rounds of 5.56, 62 grain Federal ammo for $470 total. Worst...
