    A little humour for your day

    It's a direct reflection of the morals and values of a citizenship. Poor taste, immature and shows low integrity.

    Stuff you don't like for no good reason

    I am in that category. I hunt elk, mulies, whitetail, and pronghorn. I flyfish. Volunteer for several entities. Just doesn't feel the same as when I had "purpose" every day.

    What is you "Happy Place"?

    Mine has changed over the years. The past few years were when I was in my recliner reading while my beautiful pup layed tightly alongside my thigh. No matter how bad things looked in the world, watching her sleep with not a worry in the world made everything seem alright. She passed three weeks...

    Buying binos sucks

    Our fathers and grandfathers killed plenty of game with $50 binoculars. We seem to get it in our heads that we need $5000 rifles, $2500 scopes, $2000 binos and $1500 clothes. That being said, I am as guilty as the next guy as I have purchased all the above... 🥴 I don't kill any more game than...

    New BF Good rich KO3

    The Cooper Rugged Treks they came out with in 2022 have been the best all purpose AT tire I ever used... and I have tried a good number of AT tires.

    New BF Good rich KO3

    Yeah, it's a trade off. AT's or mudders, but you can't have the performance of both. AT's will get you by in 90% of cases. Mud tires will get you killed on ice, wear quicker, ride rougher and get darned noisy!

    Talked myself out of a 7prc today.

    When you compare the velocities, fps of the 7 prc to the 280ai or 7mm Rem... or the 7 SAUM one comes to realize you are burning a LOT more powder (esp. compared to the 280ai and SAUM) for little to no gains in performance with handloads. My best 280ai handloads exceed some actual 7prc (factory...

    6.5 PRC Christensen Arms Mesa Vs Browning X-bolt Hells canyon

    I have several X-bolts... all 1/2" shooters consistently. Some have been beaten, dragged through dust, mud and rain, covered with snow with little maintenance during season and none show any rust. Blued versions at that. Must be an anomoly.

    Gettysburg

    It is crazy to think 54,000 men died in three days on that little field. As many that died during the entire Vietnam war. Over a million pounds of lead were fired! Nine months later when Lincoln gave the Gettysburg address they were still burying the bodies. It's a haunting place for sure...
