    Montana vs South Dakota State

    SDSU alum here so gotta root for the Jacks. I'm sure SDSU's special teams have been prepping the entire time for Montana's return game. I'd be shocked if Junior sees a kick or punt even close to his zip code. SDSU has had an elite run defense the past couple of seasons. If they make Montana one...

    Trail cam

    One knock on the Brownings I use is they do not like it when you mix battery brands (eg. Duracell, Energizer). First time I used mine I put in mixed battery brands and they basically didn't work. Browning customer service told me to make sure the battery brands was all the same, preferably their...

    Trail cam

    I'm with ya, Reconyx are awesome. But for what you spend on one, I wouldn't sleep at night leaving it unattended on public land.

    Trail cam

    I use Brownings for work and play with good results. However, I'm wondering what you guys use that are getting good night photos? My night photos with Brownings leave something to be desired. I feel I'm missing some cool stuff....

    Tree Planting Tips

    This is a good tip and goes along with what I've observed during reforestation assessments following fires in the west. The areas of heavy blow down from fire killed trees provide better protection (micro climate) for seed germination and seedling establishment than areas with much less ground...

    Sold

    I'm currently carrying a Franchi LX 20 gauge for quail. They're really nice guns. Someone will be happy with this one.

    2023 Hunt Talk Fantasy Football League

    Let the record show I paid $30.03 back in early September. That extra $0.03 was a bribe for when I needed to call in a favor in the future. After last night's loss, I'm calling in that favor now. I want a do over.

    1874 sharps

    I can only muddy the waters more at this point but if you find something close that needs a professional touch, Curt Hardcastle can work wonders on those older single shots. I had the pleasure of being in his shop once when he had the door open to one of his safes. I had to pinch myself more...

    Classic western Lever gun?

    Those early 1940's era model 94s clean up quite nicely.

    Classic western Lever gun?

    Finally some love for the Win model 88. My dad has one in .308 and .243, both are very nice guns. Interestingly, he bought his .308 in the early 60's to replace his Win model 94. I had a Savage model 99 in .308 when I was a teen. Yes, it was ugly. But what does a 16 yr old know about gun...

    First time refinishing a gun stock

    Some of you are probably thinking that doesn't look like the typical Remington 600s with the 18" vent rib barrel. Here's a thread on the other work I've done to the gun: https://www.hunttalk.com/threads/something-old-something-new.296343/

    Did you shoot your first deer with open sights?

    Like so many before me in the PA deer woods, first deer was with my dad's Win model 94 30-30 with open sights.

    First time refinishing a gun stock

    Thanks for posting these. I've been wanting to replace the plastic bottom with a metal one. I found a replacement last year that was metal. The finish was terribly rough and I returned it.

    First time refinishing a gun stock

    The end result. It's almost criminal they covered it with lacquer originally. Of course it's not the only questionable fashion the 1970's produced.

    First time refinishing a gun stock

    95% came off using the edge of a metal ruler as a scraper. For the checkering I used Citristrip.

    First time refinishing a gun stock

    I have a Remington 600 that was my grandmother's gun. While the gun shoots incredibly well, the stock isn't much to look at. I've thought about refinishing it for awhile and yesterday I jumped in. Other than a few hours of YouTube videos I don't have any experience or knowledge on stock...
