    Public Lands Rule Rescinded

    Yep. Just underscores the need for all of us to speak up more and more. We can't just contact our elected officials.

    Public Lands Rule Rescinded

    Clear to me that there are only a handful of politicians left that actually care about public lands......or the public for that matter.

    If you thought prop 127 was bad….

    They can't define every hunt-able species as a keystone species. Even their desire to do so won't stand up. That said, all predators will be on the keystone list they make.....and yes, prairie dogs will be too. They have been identified for decades, if not longer, as a keystone grassland...

    They are gunning for The North American Model of Wildlife Management as well!

    If you thought prop 127 was bad….

    Sigh. I know it will never end but there are days I sure wish it would. This is the biggest fight the hunting/angling/ranching/recreation communities have ever faced. Yes, I included recreation....there's no way this won't stop anything other than passive recreation in wildlife corridors (not...

    Rebuilding a rig instead of buying new

    FWIW I would skip engine and trans rebuilds until there are signs that they are needed. They are the most reliable part of old Toyotas...well, the motors are. For the old 4Runner/Tacoma some generations had trans problems. My sister's 2001 Tacoma is on transmission 3 at 330,000 miles. I'm...

    Round In The Chamber

    Yea, I get why folks like to have one in the chamber. I always figured that if I miss an animal because I didn't have time to chamber a round then there really wasn't time to truly assess the situation anyway. I'm out there for the long haul....don't see a reason why a round needs to be in the...

    CCI no. 34 primers

    I've been using them in my Rem 700 30-06 and my son's Savage 110 6.5CM for 3 or so years. I started low and worked up my load and it has been fine. I have not had any failure to fire in either rifle. Like has been mentioned it was all that could be found for a while.

    6.5 CM as a hunting cartridge... why?

    Interesting. I had not thought of it that way. So, if I'm reading you correctly you are meaning that any mono that doesn't exit the muzzle north of 2,800 FPS will not expand?

    10x or 12x alpha glass

    I'm on year 2 of only using 12x. I can't see going back. That said, I can hand hold them fine.

    Wax, spary or gel case lube for sizing

    Alcohol and lanolin homebrew in a gallon ziplock for me. I'm not super experienced but it seems to work just fine and is affordable. The only time I've ever stuck a case was when I forgot to use it :(.

    Denver area bird hunters

    I've switched from hunting in CO to just making trips to South Dakota. A week on the grasslands is equal to years of hunting in Colorado.
