That's awesome, looks like fun trails. Here's a picI took Wednesday after finishing up an after school ride with 3 of my sons. Dirt bikes are definitely good for the T levels :)
I haven't had a chance to read the thread, but wanted to respond real quick. I'm 45. Got tested a couple years ago, pretty consistently between 200-250. Doc wanted to put me on TRT. I was "meh" on the idea, for a number of reasons.
Went and saw a doc that focused on hormone health, and did...
Well, I did a cursory search for various parts that I suppose are wear items on a bolt gun (firing pin/extractor/trigger spring) and there's pretty much nada. Suppose I'll just hunt with it until something dies 🤷
Appreciate everyone's thoughts. Bummer to see a cool company die.
Honestly I've never had anything break on a bolt action ever. But my bolt action experience had mostly been "hunting season in a couple months, let's go to the range and shoot from 100 to 500 a few times And then go fill some tags".
So I don't know what to be concerned about honestly, and I'm...
Saw a thread a while back somewhere about a guy in the same boat with a Marlin X7. Loved the gun but can't shoot it anymore due to one small piece that broke in the bolt.
Doesn't seem to be much aftermarket support. Few things here and there is all I could find.
It's a bummer. I like the rifle and I've got some minor sentimental attachment to it (It's the rifle I used to get back into hunting a few years back and the rifle I carried when teaching my two oldest...
Wasn't sure where to post this, but curious just the same. I don't really have the breadth of experience or context to make a judgment on this but thought the notion was interesting, so thought I'd offer it up for discussion;
I have a T/C venture weather shield in 7mm-08. Didn't know a ton...
We have three in our family. I like hunting with it because they're light, handy sized rifles, low recoil, relatively quiet with low muzzle blast (no need for a brake or a can) my wife and kids love the low recoil. Flat shooting, accurate, deer to 600, elk to 400 decisively. I think it's more...
I'm a pretty big 7mm-08 fan. My primary hunting rifle is 7-08 and that's what I bought for my two oldest boys as they each started hunting. Versatile, and theirs something enjoyable about underrated cartridges that missed the hype train. Ammo is easy to find around me. 6.5 PRC looks interesting...
