    Thawing Processed Meat

    Unless its for actual hamburgers, microwave is fine. Otherwise I just thaw it in a bowl of hot water, takes about 30 min. Why would it being cooked a little on the edges hurt meat that will be seasoned and mashed up? It all gets cooked the same eventually...

    Fixing Western Hunting

    I just hope that we can ban NR from hunting and fishing in Alaska. You can even keep your money, we get enough from the feds.

    Teacher Concealed Carry Law in Idaho

    There is zero accountability fom kids actions. Most parents are absolutely worless at parenting and expect the school to make up for their short commings. Teacher retention is abysmal and good luck finding new teachers. Teachers get paid jack shit and have little control and a mountain of...

    Teacher Concealed Carry Law in Idaho

    My sister is a teacher in ID and is counting the days to retire. Guns for teachers is what we need for sure. The school system is about to implode nation wide IMO.

    .44 Mag Shotshells

    Interesting... Have you looked at 44 super mag brass? Seems like it's exactly the right size already? Not sure on availability though. A friend of mine had one a long time ago not sure if they even make it any more. I want to say the case length was the same as the cartridge length of a 44 mag...

    Leupold Warranty

    All those big stores offer some sort of stupid extended warranty. It's a money maker for them and they will tack it on to everything.

    Canyon Ferry Bozeman Water Pipeline

    I'm still baffled at the cost being 1.7-5.7B for a pipeline. I engineer and work on estimates in the $Bs and the complexity is 100 higher than a pipeline. I'd love to see the estimate. I'm guessing it includes purchasing easements/property, a capx and opx of a water treatment plant, plus...

    Grain bin questions?

    Are you originally from California? :D The ones I've seen are just curved plates bolted together. Lots and lots of bolts. They usually have a few tie rods crossing in the center to support the horizontal load from the grain, but as a shed, I don't think you'd need them, or move them to the roof...

    Bitterroot Goats

    I remember looking at this a few years ago, and read a couple studies done in the Midwest somewhere. They compared visual surveys to thermal drone surveys for deer. The visual surveys weren't far off with their corrections if I remember right.

    Bitterroot Goats

    I was wondering when drone surveys would become a thing. It seems like they would be more effective than visual surveys.

    Heavy Pack Loads

    I know a number of retired or ex military guys with bad backs and knees. I'd like to think there is a study of that out there. While I've packed heavy packs before, but I don't anymore. I like to keep it around 80-90lbs as a max or less. I don't mind making another trip as needed. Its not worth...

    How to mount scope farther back?

    The stock is too long for her. Unless you're super attached to the stock (if so find a used one), put a piece of blue tape across where you plan to cut, remove screws from butt pad and cut it off with a miter saw. Install a nice recoil pad (preferably sand to fit). You'll be worlds ahead of...

    Who all here has won a Sheep raffle?

    I've never looked at this, but was curious. I thought you may know, as I seem to remember you won a hunt? According to the IRS it looks like you pay 25% of the value unless the org covers tax as part of the prize. Winning a $100k stone sheep hunt isn't going to be a cheap hunt. I guess you'd...

    What The Hell is Science-Based Management?

    Its basically kill or save as many animals for what is socially acceptable. The fact that we try to "manage" wildlife is just weird. Other than not killing them, we believe we can play god and control species by killing this or that, manipulating populations, and habitat. While we succeed at...

    Can a CO resident....

    What ever you want. It's OTC. Some areas have different antler restrictions for NR, but it's still OTC.

    Can a CO resident....

    Oh, gotcha. I'm sure ewe tags are easier to get as well. You can come up to AK and hunt one from the road for the price of airfare and a rental vehicle, or drive up. Odds are lower than a fly-out, but still better than never drawing a tag in CO. :D
