    Set and Forget Scope Recommendation

    Two easy options: Find a good old K4 and you're golden to 250. Now if you wish to have the ability to go longer than 250 from time to time the easy button is a 3-9 Burris with BP

    Caliber combination for prairie dog hunting?

    A bolt 17 HMR for hiking around and taking them offhand, then a couple of 223's a good AR and a bolt gun and you'll be golden. After your first trip you can regroup and sort out what you wish to do next. We used to shoot a ton load of the little buggers, and this worked well for us. Though I...

    375 weatherby loads

    I haven't used/shot my M70/375 Wby for some time. It has a Schneider on it cut to 23" at this time. Personally, I'd have zero issues with cutting the barrel to 19" or so and having it threaded for my suppressor. Mine shoots the 235 TSX very well, when those are gone I'd most likely move to the...

    Personally, I'd say make life easy...grab yourself a nice 270 or 7 RM and call it a day. Life's short, hunt hard!

    Question for all

    Guess I'm kind of confused...(not a surprise for me) but you mention having a "beautiful 6.5 Creed Savage. Guess my first thought is/was stick with that and go hunt! Or are you wanting an additional rifle? I see a bunch of suggestions from short action rounds to long ones...? I'm probably...

    220 Swift build….

    Much as I love the old Swifto, it sure can be problematic to find brass for the bugger. I'd buy as much as you can when you find it! Last one I did I AI'd it, I AI to reduce trimming and not for the extra speed. Best of luck to ya in your project with your son

    How many days do you hunt a year and what do you hunt mostly big gane wise ?

    Last year between hunting, fishing, shooting, hiking etc I was out 67 times. My goal for this year is 100. Last year my better half drew a sheep tag after 19 years of applying (I'm on year 45 with no tag so far). Between scouting and hunting we put in 21 days. And yes she took a really grand old...

    Interesting article on bear spray vs. bear handgun defense

    Tons of work, but fun work. My wife took a very nice ram. Between scouting and hunting we put in 21 days. Plenty of miles and lots of elevation changes. All in all a fantastic time. Thanks for asking
