    TTSX vs M70 .308

    That's kind of where I was going with the Clay, I started at 50 off and worked my way back a ways, then went to 20 off. I tried 4 powders (Don't have the log, but I'm pretty sure they were 748, varget, rl15, and I think 335). I've never never had an issue getting a TTSX to shoot "hunting"...

    TTSX vs M70 .308

    Any advice for getting a Model 70 .308 to shoot 150gr TTSXs? I've tried different COAL, different powders. The rifle shoots really good with 150 ballistic tips and SSTs, with with pretty much any powder. Just can't get it to group well with a Barnes. Would it be worth a try with 130gr?

    Muzzleloader Points

    Don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining, I have had a deer tag every year in a backup unit. And get an OTC tag in Minnesota every year. I was just thinking that I must have about the worst luck in the state, but apparently not. Good luck to all you guys in the drawing.

    Muzzleloader Points

    I bet there is quite a few with 12 or more. Last year there was something like 700 applicants with 10 or more.

    Muzzleloader Points

    A buddy and I were laughing over beers last Friday at how how bad my luck is in the lottery, so I started wondering how may other folks out there have as bad of luck as me. I'm carrying 11 muzzleloader, 5 rifle deer, and 6 Pronghorn points this year. I guess I should be thankful that Pheasants...

    Archery Mule Deer

    Lots of good stuff here! Thank you for all the tips, I feel pretty unprepared but you have to start somewhere I guess. Gonna consider it a success if I just see something out there. Good hunting to everybody that is heading out for deer or antelope!

    Archery Mule Deer

    So I have an opportunity to go on an opening weekend Mule Deer hunt out west this year and am pretty pumped about it. I've never hunted mule deer before with bow or rifle and have been reading any articles I can find to hopefully avoid looking like a fool out there. Does anybody have any last...

    Big Head Carp

    Fried or grilled, are the ways that I had it. Grilled was by far my favorite. It's difficult to explain, but sort of like Walleye it tasted like whatever it was seasoned with. Not "fishy"

    Big Head Carp

    You pretty much forget how ugly they are when your shoulder gets tired of drawing the bow. Cleaning them can be a pain, but not much worse than a Northern, and they are normally pretty big so a guy can waste a lot and still get a pretty sizeable amount of meat per fish. I don't think...

    Big Head Carp

    I have eaten Bighead Carp before and it was pretty good.

    The "Final" SB 2315 - Worst of Both Worlds

    Time to get rid of all gratis tags, repeal the corporate farming laws, allow non profits to buy land and throw the farm bill into the trash. - - - Updated - - - Maybe even resurrect measure 5 and vote on it again

    SB 2315 - In Cmte 3/14 - ACTION REQUIRED!

    I tried to warn people about Cindy Beck years ago when she was first running. But she had that coveted "R", so that's all that mattered. She has always been and will always be shady.

    First bow for my kids

    I want to get my 6yo twins bows for Christmas this year and have been looking at the options that are out there. I would prefer to get them recurves to begin with. Just wondering if anybody has any input as to what bows I should be looking at? PSE seems to have a couple beginner options that...

    Unused deer tags

    Anybody know if ND has ever thought about having a turn in for deer tags that probably won't be Used? The reason I ask, is because it is looking like I am going to have to cancel my vacation this year due to work. If I am not able to go then the other 2 in my group probably won't make the trip...
