    Hay Creek Dispute

    We used to tie fishing lines w/bare hooks to the train bridge on Hay Creek just S of '94. At the beginning of summer we'd ride our bikes to K-mart and buy a biggish spool of cheap curly-Q blue-clear mono that needed about 3/4oz to straighten out. We'd bait them with backyard worms and catch...

    Custom AR/Sporting Rifle Builder

    Are you planning to buy the parts anyone can buy and assemble them or do you have or have a plan to obtain the machinery that allows you to do things that the average person cannot? If you have the equipment to custom-cut chambers into aftermarket precision barrels, or the knowhow to make...

    Hunting Clothing

    There’s some pretty nice hiking gear that crosses over to hunting well. Good moisture management, less expensive than Sitka/Kuiu. Mountain Hardware “Piero” pants are fantastic. They’re between Sitka ascent and Timberline, have great DWR, 4-way stretch, manage moisture very well, and wear like...

    Im in the market for a new rifle.....

    6.5 Creedmoor offers shooters the opportunity to shoot all available 6.5mm bullets due to proper twist. Can be loaded at a COAL that'll allow land engagement if one so desires, while remaining within the confines of a magazine box. Forethought is firing the fad.

    Trouble with Pentax Binocular Warranty

    Never with Pentax (never owned any), but in your search for a replacement set, avoid Nikon or you'll be sitting in the same boat regarding customer service/warrantee issues. I realized I didn't answer your original question, just trying to save you a similar headache in the future.

    Im in the market for a new rifle.....

    $1K budget is going to buy you a very nice package. Ruger, Browning, Howa/Wby Vanguard, Remington, and I think even the newer Bergara rifles are in your budget and you won't really have to skimp on a scope with any of them. Might even be able to get into the Kimber Hunter if you can find one...

    Im in the market for a new rifle.....

    If Rem could cypher proper twist, COAL, and mag-box length they'd fare better in the longevity of their in-house developed chamberings. - - - Updated - - - His McMillan stock is worth more than the $$ difference between the 2.

    Hunting Clothing

    More info needed. Do you need clothing for sitting in a tree-stand? What month? Sept 1 clothing is much different than Oct 15 clothing, Nov 15 clothing is differenter, and Dec 15 clothing probably doesn't include anything from your Sept 1 outfit. Maybe you're in an enclosed blind. Heater or...

    Best O/U for the money

    1st thing I'd do with the triple nickel would be to pull the stock and clean up the mechanism well. Just a wild guess, but, I suspect double fires are likely the result of factory packing goo getting gummier and gooier after a few shots. If you shoot both bbl of a 20ga is it a 10ga or a 40ga?

    I’ve owned 3 sets of elk-hide Nocona’s that have all been extremely comfortable.

    Im in the market for a new rifle.....

    Most will get exponentially more use out of the 6.5 Creedmoor than they will a 7Mag simply because the 6.5 is a whole lot more pleasant to shoot. You'd never hear be argue against the 7-08 either. That said, if you're buying factory ammo, right now the 6.5Creedmoor has a whole lot more options...

    sugar beet season

    There was a Semi from Ponsford MN eastbound on '94 near Jamestown yesterday afternoon hauling either grain or beans that was doing his level best to piss off every driver within 1-mi of him. Drove in the left lane not quite passing another semi for 2mi. Put all his left-side tires off the...

    Weird food combinations that work

    Once had lunch with a family that put peanut butter and mayo on their BLT's, it was edible. Cold days mom would make us grilled cheese and hot chocolate and we'd dunk the GC in the HC, matter of fact I still do that. I've also seen grilled cheese dunked in tomato soup, but I typically don't...

    Direct Payments to farmers/ranchers

    Nightmare scenario. Big influx of cash which will be taxed to the hilt, grazing land that will only produce whatever $$ he can rent it for, and hay land that may or may not turn any $$ next year unless it too is rented out. That's just the dollars and cents of it, there is of course a personal...

    I'm here to give a hoot...and to try and catch walleye

    Welcome, Here's a Crestliner review for you: I owned a 2006 1850 Crestliner Fishhawk with a factory pre-rigged 150HP Suzuki 4-stroke from brand new in May of '06 until last Saturday 6/20/15. Late last summer (Mid-August) I noticed a couple of cracks in the welds along the transom. That was the...
