    tree saddle

    +1 for saddle hunter forum. Lots of good info there. Also, I would suggest getting yourself a used saddle and try it for yourself. I personally couldn’t sit in it all day. 3-4 hours is def my max. I find myself moving quite a bit in the saddle or even a hybrid. But I use it as another tool in...

    What's your favorite hunting bow?

    I prefer Hoyt bows. The grips feel better to me.

    What made you interested in long range shooting?

    Ive always wanted to shoot just a bit further than the opportunities I get. Where I hunt most shots come at 75 yards;) but I always find myself walking just a bit slower when I come to a field edge or a lake hoping to see my quarry hundreds of yards away

    Trying to build a load for an old rifle

    Trying to build a load for an old rifle

    Thanks for the reply. I don’t have a lot of experience with barrels being burned out. I don’t know anyone with a scope either. Guess it’s time to start saving for a barrel

    Trying to build a load for an old rifle

    Hi all, this is my first post! I was hoping someone could give me some insight about the problems I’m having. I am trying to work a load for coyote hunting with a rem 700 in .223. I believe the barrel is a 1:14 24” long and it’s older. When I received the rifle the prev owner said that it had...
