    Shooting from a tripod

    Shooting off tripods can work really well with a little practice. It does come down to your budget. The more you pay the lighter the setup you can get. There are may quality products out there from a few hundred to well over $1,500. I was able to find my tripod used and spent very little on...

    Guess the tow bill

    Glad everyone was OK and able to come away from that alive and safe. We had one camper that was always a challenge to pull due to sway no matter how I loaded it. One day I took it to the scales unloaded and loaded weighed each axel and the hitch. I found that the unloaded weight put the...

    2024 Turkey Season!

    Our first period opened yesterday. It was very windy and rainy. All I saw was one hen who came into my decoys three times about 30 min apart and she would cluck like crazy like she was wondering what are these other birds doing out in the field when the weather is so poor, trying to tell them...

    WI Hunts

    Good luck, like you said the weather will be perfect. The birds around here just started breaking up last week, and are starting to change patterns a little. If you don't get a chance to pattern that new shot, consider sticking with what you know. I know that our guns shoot the various turkey...

    I have had pretty good luck with this one: https://forloh.com/collections/mens-outdoor-shirts/products/insect-shield-hooded-long-sleeve-shirt I found they run a little big but it seems to really keep the mosquitos and ticks away.

    Winchester Super X 4 shot for turkey?

    For me, the best patter in my Winchester were from the longbeard xr 3.5" #4 with a carlson longbeard choke. I tried several different combinations and that is what worked best for this particular configuration.

    Cell Service Outage

    So is the media blowing this out of proportion? If we use Wiki https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mobile_network_operators_in_the_United_States Between the big three there are 506 about million lines. If we say that 100K are down. That is less than 0.002% of the lines. If a major storm rolls...

    WI end tomorrow, not a Togie hunt.(public)

    I thought I was at a rifle range on Saturday morning. I heard tons of gun fire from 6:30 am till a little after 9am. I don't think 5 min went by where I didn't hear a shot. It was crazy, and very few single shots. When I went back out in the afternoon I bumped 10 deer at 3pm within 20 yards...

    6.5 CM Question

    Yes, I have and they shot well for me, but the Bergers shot better so that I where I have landed. I am using it this particular rifle on deer and antelope and for that applications within 600 yards just about any bullet meets the criteria. Many folks like the ELD-X and the Hammer bullets as...

    6.5 CM Question

    The 135 elite hunter have worked great for me. I also use it as a long range target bullet. I hand load, but Berger does offer it in a factory loading. I have taken deer and antelope from 50 yards to 550 without any issues. I am shooting it at 2,735 fps out of a 24" barrel with a 1:7 twist.
