    Arrow Building

    It's a frustrating, never-ending rabbit hole, with a shit ton of variables. I honestly hate it! But then, I'm not an expert at it either. I guess the first question is, where are your BH's hitting in relation to the FP? I assume you've probably looked into BH tuning already, and possibly...

    Arrow Building

    I've never played with 4 fletch, so no opinion there. Are you experiencing accuracy issues with BH?

    NDA Ammo and Reloading Component TRADE thread

    Permanent increases are coming I'm afraid. And in some cases, may already be here. I saw where a guy was watching Noslers site for 3 months to buy his Trophy Grade ammo if it ever came in stock. Price just increased 30% from last week on Nosler's site. I doubt you will see that decrease anytime...

    NDA Ammo and Reloading Component TRADE thread

    I am looking for Hornady Precision Hunter 300 PRC 212 ELD-X ammo. Unfortunately most of my ammo, and all reloading components are packed up in storage for house project. Would appreciate a PM if you come across any on a shelf, maybe I can make arrangements to purchase. When I get access to my...

    Nonresident Montana Elk/Deer licenses may go to outfitters?

    Playing devils advocate.....that was 10 years ago. What has changed? An undeniable boom in Western hunting, and overcrowding of public lands. I would suspect a fair amount of R MT hunters might now be for this, again. It would take nearly 40% of the NR pressure away from the public lands? Fly...

    First Aid Kits

    We all probably know someone who have cut themselves on those stupid Havalons, right? Last year was my turn. Pretty sure I sliced into my radial artery at the base of my thumb. Tape and gauze pads didn't work, at all. Luckily my brother had Quickclot. That has now earned a permanent place in my...

    Free range chickens

    We cut the head off a rattler in the badlands once and tossed the rest of it in a ziploc for the grill later on. Opened the tailgate and it slithered out of the bag in the front of the box all the way to the back. Blood trail and all. Not relevant I know, but reminded me of it.

    Waterfowl snack sticks

    I agree 50/50 with pork butt will be sufficient. I dont trim the butts at all. Made 10lbs of elk sticks a couple weeks and they were pretty spot on for fat/moisture. Just dont overcook them.

    Bill being introduced to allow Pink

    ^^^^ Same thing with arrow vanes. Flo pink is consistently mentioned in various online threads as being the most visible, to the most people. I run 2 flo orange and 1 white vane, and they can be tough to see on target in different light conditions, and really tough to find in the grass when you...

    New Land Bills: SB 2036, 2037 and 2038

    I agree with this. This is the best solution, hate to say it. I would love to see it stay as is, but that's not happening.

    Which rifle

    Did you really see 175fps difference with +2" of barrel, or was that a typo?

    How to preserve hunting when all land is posted

    Please provide specifics as to how the current NDGF mgmt of our natural resources, and lack of forward thinking will negatively impact the next generation. (Good god I sound like GST). I'm genuinely curious.

    Reticles

    Front Focal, MOA or Mil elevation and windage hashes, matching turrets. Hunting and target shooting. I have no experience with busy "Christmas Tree" reticles. May try one in between what is described above, and a full blown Horus (busy tree) at some point just to see. I do a combo of dialing...

    Triggers

    1lb Jewells for me, hunting or target. Also have a Rifle Basix on a rifle which is decent. Probably around 2lbs. Got a new build in the works and trying out my first Trigger Tech. This one adjusts from 1-3. Been so used to my 1lb Jewells I tried shooting a factory Rem 700 300wm and it felt...

    Pork butt injection

    I've never injected a butt, although I'm rarely against adding more liquid and flavor to a big piece of meat. I think a finishing sauce is about the most important thing you can "add" to a pork butt cook. Also, I don't like the hard burnt bark like Guy's azteroid turds. I wrap in butcher paper...

    beer and horns

    SSGs, aka Soft Shoulder Goldies, aka Miller High Life in a bottle, have sure been tasting wonderful lately. And Hamms (not the Special Light crap) is better than most other mass produced domestics. That said, I believe I've only ever dumped out a couple beers in my life. Ranier, and Lift...

    Sleeping bag

    You're a tougher man than I. Pack in a full size feather pillow too? ;) Reminds me of a time when I went over to my old neighbors garage as he was preparing for a CO backpack hunt. Some of the shit he was packing up the mountain was beyond heavy, and in a pack that belonged in a museum (along...
