    Heavy Bullets in 6.5 Grendel

    I’m waiting on a Pendleton stock to finish a 6.5 Grendel build on an 8 twist, 22” sporter barreled action from Brownell’s. Already have the JO bottom metal. I hunt the forest in the Adirondacks where shots are almost always inside 100 yards, often inside 50 yards. I’m buying a few bullets to...

    Stand Alone Bivy Recommendation

    I’ve read the bivy and tarp thread. Lots of good points. I want to get a bivy for 2-3 day deer hunting trips in the Adirondacks. I live here so can pick my days and won’t need a tarp. I’ve slept in bivys enough to know that I prefer a hoop to keep it off my face. I also have a 2 pound solo...

    6.5CM at Grendel Velocities

    Is anyone loading their 6.5CM down near 6.5 Grendel velocities. If so have you done any hunting with it at those velocities? I understand the "bullets not head stamps" thing and have been a reloader for many years. I picked up a Remington 700 ADL synthetic at a cheap price that had the barrel...

    6.5 Grendel Actions

    High R Pad

    I posted the recent “New Sleeping Pad” post and ended up buying a WM Kodiak for an upcoming Grand Canyon trip. I bought this bag as much to use on remote hunting trips in the North East in future years as to use on the canyon. I already have a Paco Pad which is the standard for extended river...

    New Sleeping Bag

    I'm going to be going down the Grand Canyon with my wife in March. I've used a Feathered Friends Raven (tall) sleeping Bag for years and have always been pleased with the bag. My wife will be using that bag for the trip which leaves me with a perfect excuse to buy a new sleeping bag. I've...

    Load Shelf 1-3 Day Pack Help

    I bought a MR Sawtooth 45 for this purpose and am happy with it except for the waist belt. It just doesn’t work for me. I’d like to be able to go ultralight for a 2-3 day pack and still be able to carry meat, so I’d like a load shelf pack. The majority of use for this pack will be day hunts...
