    First focal plane or Second focal plane?

    All four of my ffp are Vortex PST. I have never used the reticle light up. I wanted the EBR MOA with numbered minutes of angle on the 4 to 16 power, and the EBR-2C on the 6 to 24 power. I really like the minute of angle EBR-2C

    First focal plane or Second focal plane?

    They both have their advantages. I think I have four first focal plane and maybe two dozen second focal plane. On my AR in 223 I like the second focal plane used with Strelok+. The reticle is bullet drop and I can change the yardage by changing the power setting. I wanted a new lightweight...

    High Standard

    SDMF my brother has a slab sided High Standard that looks just like that. It was made for only a couple years. I believe it was called the Victor. We both bought our High Standards in 1972. I still had the box and all the paper work when I traded mine at a gun show in 1986. The guy was a...

    High Standard

    I had the High Standard Trophy. It was more accurate than most of my 22 rifles. Now I have one of the lightweight threaded barrel Rugers. I also had the Ruger Mark IV Target. All good.

    Trespass Bill

    Those low life in Bismarck operate just like DC. We need a governor that is like Trump. This crap is clear evidence of the disaster we would have if the feds turned over public land.

    Log blocking the river...not a problem.

    I was out night lighting ducks at night to put radios on them. I was using a surplus airboat used as a gun boat in Vietnam. The hull was a foot thick and it had a 300 horse Lykomen engine. Heavy, heavy, heavy, and I made the mistake of slowing down on a 1/4 mile wide mud flat. One time...

    Question of Devils Lake elevation pits farming versus fishing

    Well if you consider my cousins field, right along channel A, blowing away in the wind while the lake floods it makes you scratch your head. This lake has been much higher before any drainage occurred. However what we consider high water in realits is nothing compared to high precipitation...

    Question of Devils Lake elevation pits farming versus fishing

    Yes out where East Devils Lake is you would have to drill for water in 1957. There were a number of gas station, even a Dairy Queen type store on the west side of the highway in 1957. My old brain can't remember right now the name of the old fellow who had a store where the casino is now. In...

    Log blocking the river...not a problem.

    My middle son moved to Montana for the hunting. He couldn't decide which to buy first, a house, a new car, a jet boat, lion hounds, a 4x4 side by side, or horses. He gave up making that tough decision and bought them all the first year. He helped me on that bear I shot last fall. I already...

    Question of Devils Lake elevation pits farming versus fishing

    I drove the road from Minnewaukan to Grahams Island most of the time. Actually when I started going out there you could not see water from that road. Then it flooded and everyone trolled along it and called it "The Golden Highway". Do you mean Devils Lake is it's own watershed? It is until...

    Question of Devils Lake elevation pits farming versus fishing

    Yes, and the liberals whine about global warming. Through many means we can look back in history and it tells us how variable "normal" can be. Likewise Devils Lake fluctuates. I remember watching the national guard do tank maneuvers where there is now East Devils Lake. The current rise is...

    Question of Devils Lake elevation pits farming versus fishing

    Dean maybe I got the year wrong. I searched for Boundary Waters Treaty and found this one of 1909. I remembered a publication by Farmes Union back in the 1970s when the debate on Garrison Diversion was going hot and heavy. I guess my memory back 40 years isn't that good...

    Question of Devils Lake elevation pits farming versus fishing

    It's been a long time since I have given this any attention. The original plan was to run Missouri water into Devils Lake, through to Stump Lake, and then dump into the Sheyenne River. It's the biota from a totally different watershed that Canada objected to. I believe there was a treaty...

    Odds on pelly

    In the past I liked it warm in the 50's for deer season. Now I want it cold so they shut off those pumps. I camp on the south side of the river and shoot 90% of my deer on the north side. The river isn't much up there and all during the 70's, 80's, and 90's I would just drive across the...

    Runnings Store in Moorhead

    Johnr I like Dickinson store too, but sometimes the service sucks. On my way to Montana last spring I wanted to buy a 1X6 Strike Eagle for my 300WSM that I could attach to the rail when I was hunting heavy timber. The wifes back was killing her so she was using the store for walking exercise...
