    Barrel threading

    That's good to hear, not much of a fan of the cigarette smoke. I would get a little jealous though because he was able to do what he wanted and be his own boss while doing work he enjoys.

    Barrel threading

    I’ve used straight shot gunsmithing from center a few times and he did great work also used Ackerman from Dickinson as well and been pleased with him as well

    suppressor help

    I know when I went through TAG a couple years ago it was before they had the kiosk and stuff. I paid around $100 extra for the trust at that time, but it seems to be a rock solid trust with easy addition or removal of responsible persons and additional NFA items onto the trust. I don't think...

    300 win mag ammo

    My main concern is the lead in the meat, not that i'm worried about lead poisoning or anything like that I just am picky with the quality of the meat so i tend to waste more meat around the bullet path than i do with the copper bullets. I am also wanting more penetration than what the berger's...

    300 win mag ammo

    Thanks for the reply, that makes sense then and i'm a lot more comfortable with them. I had one bad experience with barnes back in 2003 or 2004. I shot a whitetail with 30-06 150gr x-bullet, not sure if even called tsx at that time. I shot him 3 times at about 150 yards. He didn't even act like...

    300 win mag ammo

    The MT one and the one a little further to the right are what I’m concerned about. I can’t tell if they sheared petals off from close range which is ok but if they didn’t then I would be concerned with the amount of internal damage. Could you provide some more info on those two at all.

    300 win mag ammo

    I tried 190 Berger’s a few years ago in my 308. They didn’t tumble and shot ok in the factory 1:12 twist that I think the rifle had but hated that they wouldn’t fit in the magazine.

    suppressor help

    Not to derail the thread but have anyone had any trouble with light contour barrels and poi change as the barrel heats up with a suppressor on. My 257wby which is a remington 700 cdl in a McMillan stock. It has a light contour heavy fluted barrel but always shot sun moa. After putting the...

    suppressor help

    I’ve been looking at the dominus from thunderbeast. Close the the ultra 7 but a little fatter. The weight doesn’t bother me but the length of cans sucks especially the ultra 9’s on a 26” barrel. I’ve been happy with the TBAC cans, my two ultra 9’s are interchangeable on rifles with no poi change...

    suppressor help

    I went through TAG Firearms in Bismarck. He was awesome to work with, set up my trust for me and had thunderbeast suppressors in stock. I have two 30 cal ultra 9's from him that have been excellent and i went with the dead air mask 22lr from him. Great correspondence and help.

    300 win mag ammo

    That's mostly what i've been reading for minimum velocities as well. Most people say to add a couple hundred fps on to that to be safe. My concern is what barnes calls expansion. Will the tip just expand a little or will it go to the full 1.5-2x its diameter and how much shock will there be...

    300 win mag ammo

    Thanks for the feedback on the barnes. I'm seriously considering switching to something barnes in the 168-175gr for my 300wm. It was nice not having lead fragments and destroyed meat in my doe this year. It looks like I wouldn't be sacrificing much with the 168gr besides some energy and wind...

    300 win mag ammo

    Whats the furthest you've shot something with the 168's out of the win mag. I'm worried about them expanding at longer distances. I'm running 215 bergers out of mine right now and haven't been impressed on game. I don't think they exited on my deer this year at 300 yards and it was a mess. One...

    Hanging deer - head up or down?

    We always hang any of our animals head down, whether deer, elk, or pigs. I don’t have a way to hang them in my house so everything is quartered into a cooler with ice now.

    Crazy Hunter Harassment Duck Hunting In North Dakota (Game Warden Involved!)

    I am only going off my own experience where I’ve told pheasant hunters to stay way from the timber draw as that’s where I bowhunt. I would assume if I had trail camera pictures of them in there I could charge them for trespassing. That is what this reminds me of, cousin said to stay away from...

    Crazy Hunter Harassment Duck Hunting In North Dakota (Game Warden Involved!)

    I’m not a lawyer, but is it possible for the cousin/nephew to press charges a couple of days after. That could explain letting them hunt more until he found out the shitshow they caused for his family with this video and not listening to him originally.

    Crazy Hunter Harassment Duck Hunting In North Dakota (Game Warden Involved!)

    I haven't listened to the podcast yet so i may be way off on my information. The big part for me is if they hunters were actually allowed to be in that spot. If it is true that they were not supposed to be near the property line then I don't even know if hunter harassment can stick. I don't know...

    Crazy Hunter Harassment Duck Hunting In North Dakota (Game Warden Involved!)

    I am curious to know the full story still. Who knows if we will ever get the truth though. My main questions are if the bean field owner (cousin) did tell these hunters to stay away from Jeff's field and if they didn't listen are they really invited back anytime to hunt or was that before this...

    Crazy Hunter Harassment Duck Hunting In North Dakota (Game Warden Involved!)

    Unfortunately I don't see it getting any better. It just seems like people are more high strung lately. It's to bad for the youth that are trying to get into hunting and don't own land or have family that own land and these situations don't help. Glad your son and his group handled it well and I...

    Crazy Hunter Harassment Duck Hunting In North Dakota (Game Warden Involved!)

    I don’t necessarily agree that the video shouldn’t be out in the public as dealing with pissed off people is just a way of life and showing that the kids handled it pretty well is a good thing. It definitely won’t do any good for landowner/hunter relations. I got called an idiot from...
