    Enclosed Trailer Conversion

    I bought a 6 1/2 wide by 16 long v front, 6 1/2 foot tall and made it into a hunting trailer also. I had a Ice castle fish house, but after talking to the ice castle dealer....they are not made to be pulled that far he said. I insulated with 1" in the walls and ceiling and put 2 layers of...

    Fitting Chains on Front

    I have a 2018 f 150 that won't take chains on the front. Decided I really wanted to have the option of chains. So I purchased some after market wheels with a different offset than the factory wheels. With factory wheels its was really tight (275/65/18 tires) with chains. New rims with different...

    WY Unit 21 Antelope Quality

    I just came back from their. Did not see any buck that I would consider "trophy" quality at all. Was a large ranch that had lots of antelope on it, glassed it just to see what was out there, nothing special at all. If you are looking for a book antelope good luck finding it in 21

    Is there any thing

    Bullet didn't expand, blew up and did what I call a body splash, not much penetration at all. Same with the other 6 elk/deer I mentioned. Took multiple rounds to do the job where one SHOULD have been enough. Without snow we would not have found the 1 bull elk.

    Is there any thing

    after seeing how a 162 ELDX did on an elk there is no way I would trust a 175 grain ELDX. And I personally know of 6 other deer and elk that also had bad results. You need a better bullet

    My Two-year HOWA Experiment

    Yup you are probably right on the targeted audience, but why wouldn't you give a caliber the best barrel length to help it preform to its potential. Can't cost that much more to add 2" barrel length. But I suppose 2" cost adds up on thousands of rifles. Oh well I wish them well on their builds!!

    My Two-year HOWA Experiment

    I for one will not buy a gun/scope package. That is not enough scope for me. Its a nice short range scope but if it was a 4-14 or 3-15 I'd consider it for sure. A 24" barrel on the 7mm is NOT enough barrel length in my opinion. 26" would be a minimum for the 7mm and probably the 300 mag but I'm...

    Day at the Range

    How deep are you seating bullets off the lands?? I had a rifle that would show really bad pressure signs when seating barnes bullets close to the lands. But was fine with a .070 jump or more

    Accubound LR

    For the life of me I can't get accubonds to shoot in any of my rifles, 4 7mm rem mags, a 338 win mag, a 260 Remington and a 25/06. I have tried so many different powders and seating depths and boxes of bullets its not even funny. Yet I can put in a Barnes TTSX and get great groups. And the...

    Honest opinion on taking the month off work for elk season? Please help!!

    They told you that you could expect to be there 12-16 months. What happens after that?? I would finish where I'm at with that great job and hunt next season. You are only 21 and have many years of hunting ahead of you and possibly only a few months to make this kind of money?? What are your...

    What is the 1 rifle you regretted buying or wished you never had bought?

    browning x bolt stainless stalker, POS, never did get it to group. 7 rem mag caliber, but maybe a Tikka t 3 lite in 25/06, never got it to shoot better than a 3 inch group at 100 yards, gun got sent back to factory, they replaced it with another that did 2" at 100 yards, down the road they all went
