    Lingering crud vs pulled pork

    I have gotten upper respiratory infections like 5 times since January. I don’t know what’s going on but I’m tired of it. As to the pulled pork. I prefer mesquite smoke. 2 hours/lb at 230°. Simple rub for me. No binder just salt, pepper, garlic, paprika, and chipotle chile powder. I don’t wrap...

    Best caliber and bullet for African Hunt

    I’m over here in Limpopo right now sitting around the campfire. We’ve shot 15 animals so far. 40-250 yards. All with a .308 win shooting 180gr Sierra game kings. Seems to work just fine on everything from 15lb steenbok to Kudu. We’ve also taken wildebeest, impala, warthog, zebra, blesbok...

    Newer Truck vs. Low Mileage Old Truck

    Ya that’s my thought on vehicles for the most part as well. I do live in AZ though so a house is generally gonna cost you $250k on the very low end for a 1950s built 1200sqft home that needs work. A newer 1500sqft 3 bed 2 bath will go in the $350k plus range pretty quick. It’s all expensive and...

    Newer Truck vs. Low Mileage Old Truck

    People don’t make $200k/ year. But for those of us who budget appropriately (dont carry debt) you can pay off a truck pretty quick. I also have been putting away $400/ month for the last several years for a vehicle specifically so it’s easy to throw down a sizable down payment then knock the...

    Newer Truck vs. Low Mileage Old Truck

    I just went through this dilemma a few weeks ago. My old Silverado was aging out and when I went to look at used trucks which is all I’ve ever bought I was shocked at the price. I was also shocked at the size of the new half ton Silverados. I didn’t want to drop $40-50k on a used truck and also...

    6 ARC as a 400+ Yard Hunting Cartridge?

    I’d use it. I’m launching 105vlds at 2710. Planning on using it on deer out to 600.

    Ibex in Mongolia or Tajikistan

    No idea. Wish I could help you but ibex in Asia are on my bucket list though I was thinking Mongolia for Altai ibex for me personally. Realistically I’ll probably go to Spain or turkey since I’m positive my wife will go with. If you check out AfricaHunting.com there are a lot of international...

    I’m home sick from work

    Was out sick over the new year. Still coughing a couple weeks later. My suggestion is to watch YouTube hunting videos and spend money internet shopping for new gear.

    Silencerco harvestor evo 300

    I’ve done silencer shop kiosks for both my cans. but in order to order this one you’d have to confirm with your local class 3 dealer that they can do the transfer. Then this can will ship to your local class 3 where you can complete the form 4 and start your wait. There will be a 7-14 day wait...

    Silencerco harvestor evo 300

    Just direct thread for me. I just prefer it for the weight savings up front on a hunting rifle. It’s only like a 2oz difference but when you stick that on a 20”-24” barrel it’s noticeable. I already found that other thread with the link. Appreciate it though.

    Head stamped starline vs resized lapua vs mixed lot lapua

    Depends on what the use of the rifle is? If this is a long range precision rig then yes I’d suggest the higher end dies if it’s a normal range hunting rifle standard Redding dies are pretty good. As to the brass question I’ve actually had really good luck with starline brass in my 7-08ai and my...

    Silencerco harvestor evo 300

    Just get it. I have one. And at that sub $400 price I might need another one. It’s great for a hunting rifle. I use the direct thread to save a bit of weight and have no issues bouncing it between my .300 win mag, 7-08ai, .300blk, 6 ARC, .243win. No POI shifts taking it off and then putting it...

    Excited for this year how’d yall season go

    Didn’t have a season. Drew 0 tags so didn’t hunt at all for myself. Helped a buddy fill a mule deer tag but that was it. Freezer is completely empty. But I’m leaving Tuesday for my annual Texas freezer filler trip. Hogs, axis deer, Aoudad maybe something else random if the opportunity presents...

    Mule deer otc or landowner tag outfitters

    That’s probably pretty tough unless you can find a landowner wiling to sell a tag directly to you. Most landowners don’t like to do that cause it’s a headache dealing with multiple people. Easier to just sell directly to one outfitter and let the outfitter deal with hunters. Might be able to...
