    Talk me into a deer rifle

    I think with 30 cal you can't cut 1/2 x 28, and 5/8 x 24 there isn't enough to make a shoulder to contact for stop. You may have to cut an odd thread and purchase an adapter. I know many adapters are available through Dakota Silencer, and I would guess other places. I know AD Arms (now in...

    Talk me into a deer rifle

    Bed Wetter I thought about the Montana because me son liked his. The only reason I didn't mention it was I was not sure the barrel in 308 had enough metal thickness for threading and shooting safely. Edit: They do thread the hmmmm Adirondack I think. They also shoot very nice. I sighted one...

    Fish house on Pipestem goes down

    I went out to watch for coyote this morning. The guy evidently dropped in about 150 yards from where I usually sit. They were about 40 yards from shore. Goofy they set up in the channel, but I guess they had to because ten yards either direction put them in about three feet of water. The...

    Boonie Packer Safari Sling

    I have been using those slings since the 1990's and like them like you do. If your ever in REI pick up a can of ?????? I don't know what they call it, but it's a rubberized material that you spray on your air mattress to keep your sleeping bag from sliding all over. Spray it on about 18 inches...

    Talk me into a deer rifle

    I bought the Ruger Predaror in 308 with the 18 inch barrel. I bought it as a beater to have fun with and shoot subsonics with. What a surprise. The trigger is terrible, but it does shoot a five shot group of .55 inch at 100 yards. I shoot the 200 gr ELD-X at 2459 fps. It was a surprise, but...

    Who shoots copper?

    I shot copper from the late 1980's, when most people had never heard of it, all through the 1990's. I switched back because they didn't perform at long range, and the bonded bullets rarely fragment. Even the Burger VLD rarely fragments beyond 1000 yards. I think the lead poison is real, but...

    ATV ramps for pickup

    When I was still working and using 4x4 I liked to use the wench to load when I was alone. I had an eye bolt put in the front of the box, with reinforcement of course.

    AR 10 for deer hunting or just fun

    Thanks 1833, I would have thought more. I'll have to store that in the old memory bank. A nice light moderate caliber for a walking rifle would be nice. I was going to get a light 22 inch, but the guy at Northland talked me out of it.

    Trigger Swap and Accuracy

    Labhunter66 is spot on. I use a ft/inch torque wrench and that eliminates the biggest problem with change in POI. At my age I really need zero stop on all of my scopes, but don't have the coins to do that. I tried a laser bore sighter and that was crap. A couple years ago I bought a better...

    Fish house on Pipestem goes down

    I knew him when I seen him at wildlife events etc, and I knee his last name at one time, but I can't remember his name now. He went through up by the old boat club bay. Edit: Yes I think his name was Darin. The few times I talked with him he was reasonable about most things, but he sure liked...

    AR 10 for deer hunting or just fun

    Downrigger I don't know what brands people are buying for their Creedmoors for ARs. When I was purchasing a bolt barrel the fellow I ordered from had half a dozen 6.5 Creedmoors and he said performance drops with less than 24 inches. Both my bolt Creedmoors are 24 inch. In am AR I might give...

    Fish house on Pipestem goes down

    There is always a group of guys bragging about who gets on the ice first. Not that many years ago a fellow I know drown on the Jamestown reservoir.

    The Great Escape

    Kurtr stick with the backpack the law you quote from the Bible has nothing to do with the laws of men. Also, judging doesn't mean what you evidently think it does. Now as for the laws of man should we just drop all laws? Are laws made by man judging? Without new laws to control things we...

    I hope your not talking to me. I didn't give you a neg rep. Someone gave me one, but I don't cry about it.

    The Great Escape

    It's no more sporting than shooting deer out the window of a moving truck. These people are not sportsmen so it isn't separating sportsmen it's separating sportsmen from slob shooters. That sounds good on the surface, but we have taken out market hunters, we have taken out spot lighters, we...

    The Great Escape

    He is simply admitting the things he doesn't know. I find that refreshing. Since you think that's lack of credibility why don't you clue us in then. Since they pay thousands for a straw of sperm I would guess it is genetics. What's your guess?

    AR 10 for deer hunting or just fun

    There is also the 300 Blackout that will work in your AR15, but none of the options come close to the 6.5 Grendel in performance.

    AR 10 for deer hunting or just fun

    Good thoughts by ItemB, but let me add one more option. If like me you maybe stuck $250 into the trigger of your AR15 and more money into other options you could purchase another upper for your rifle in 6.5 Grendel. It doesn't have the smack down that some of the AR10s do, but it's sufficient...

    That was an excellent and informative article. I hope people actually read it.

    There must be a mistake I have been told over and over they don't escape.
