    How Important is Stay Length?

    Yeah, you're more legs than torso for sure. It takes some experience to measure backs, but lets assume your back is 18.5" - that's fairly short. I looked at the Exo site and their information is fairly generic and emphasizes the users overall height more than back measurement. You absolutely...

    How Important is Stay Length?

    It would help to know which pack? What's your spine measurement from your iliac crest to c7 vertebra? 26.5" stays would typically be for someone with a long spine measurement, say 22" and over. I'm not aware of a single internal frame pack where it would be smart to cut down stays. The frames...

    Would you buy this scope?

    I'd only buy it if it has a big fuggly logo on each side, as well as something gaudy around the objective and ocular. Eagles, flames and the American flag are acceptable.

    Sleeping bag recommendations

    I have a closet full of Western Mountaineering bags. Got my first in 1992. There's no way I'd recommend one for car camping, nor would I recommend down.

    WTS New W/ Tags Montbell Men’s Versalite Rain Pants Size Medium

    The waist on these is elastic and will fit between 31-35. Inseam is 32" but would work for someone up to a 34" inseam. I'm a 30" waist and 30" inseam, hence wanting a Size small. 3.0 oz's on my digital scale.

    RL19 and 180 AB in 300WSM

    Are you using a chronograph or guessing on velocity? If you've chrono'd the load, you're definitely running the bullet slowly. RL19 will get a 180 into the mid/upper 2,900's. My favorite 300 WSM powders are H4350 and RL17. I have loaded for six or seven 300 WSM's and quit RL19 after initially...

    1P tent recommendations

    I don't do trekking poles, so the XMid is out for me. When Dan makes a solid interior available for the X-Dome 1+ (I asked, he plans to) that will become my hunting tent, though I may get it in DCF. My current hunting tent is a BA Copper Spur UL1. I've used several variations going back ten...

    300 WSM - Your Velocities?

    Hard to know where to start, but I'll give it a try. "71.5 Hunter / 3,130 fps" No pressure tested Hunter 300 WSM loads give that 180/185 velocity with a 24" barrel. None. "No Pressure Signs." Did you know you can be 20,000 PSI over SAAMI max pressures and have "no pressure signs?" You can't...

    Trophy Elk: What's it to YOU

    For me, it's the memories. Every rack I have lying around brings back the entirety of the hunt that led to the kill.

    How do you guys keep track of brass firings?

    Trophy Elk: What's it to YOU

    I'm looking for the most mature 6x6 on the mountain. I don't care about score. I just want an old mountain patriarch to match wits against.
