    What was your first big game rifle, and do you still have it?

    Ruger M77 Mark II .308. Got it 24 years ago as a graduation gift from my parents. Still my favorite gun to hunt with.

    JULY TRIP TO CODY WYOMING - what to do?

    I had my family in Cody area last year and really enjoyed it. We did a rafting trip on the Shoshone right out of Cody. The Outlaw Trail's N/E of Cody at Newton Lakes was a decent hike with some nice views. Not far from town if you don't want to venture far.

    Montana Tag Issue

    I opted for the e-tag. I hope I don’t regret that one since It’s not in the app yet.

    Potential Scope Defect?

    I Have the talley base and ring combo (horizontal). After finding that impression on the scope, they definitely need to be lapped.

    Potential Scope Defect?

    Ok. I’ll try this. Thanks for taking the time to reply. I haven’t had this happen before and really want to get it figured out.

    Potential Scope Defect?

    And just to add a visual to what I’m talking about. When I go to the range, with gun cleaned or not, this is where the gun groups. Upon making my adjustment, it hits center of target as seen in the lower left target. Everytime I’ve left the range, I had it zeroed in the bullseye.

    Potential Scope Defect?

    I like Talley as well. I should’ve had them lapped. And it’s probably not the issue. I’ll get this mess sorted out eventually.

    Potential Scope Defect?

    Thanks for the tips. I do have the Talley vertical rings on it. I just removed the scope from the gun and noticed there is a circular indentation on the scope tube from one of the mounting holes. I thought they were no lap rings but there’s apparently an uneven spot. I did shoot the gun without...

    Potential Scope Defect?

    I’m going to send it in first. Hoping they’ll help. If it comes to pitching it…..well I’ll have to keep that from the wife after what I spent on it 😬

    Potential Scope Defect?

    Thanks. I tried doing everything I could to make sure I wouldn’t run into an over torque issue. Heck I can’t believe i didn’t damage more scopes years ago when I didn’t use proper tools.

    Potential Scope Defect?

    I’m having an issue and I’d like to see if anyone else has had something similar happen. This is a first for me and I’m really scratching my head. I have a Browning Hells Canyon 300 mag that is topped with a Zeiss Conquest V4 4-16x44. It was mounted using the weaver leveling system and rings...

    Deer - lets see em

    My middle son (8yoa) insists on tagging along with me on as many hunts as he can. We finally connected on an old IL public land buck after many hunts together. He can’t wait to get a few years older so he can do the shooting himself!

    Marital Advice

    I’ve gotta say…about 20 years ago I didn’t go to a friends wedding because I didn’t want to miss a 3 day muzzleloader season…..I regret not going to the wedding and I was even single at the time. The hunt was not as important as I thought it was at the time. Go to the wedding.

    4 season tent

    I believe the outback lodge is rated as a 3 season tent. I looked at that one previously and it is a single wall tent but seems to have decent reviews. I have no personal knowledge or experience with that tent. One budget tent that surprised the sh*# out of me last year was a buddy’s Ozark Trail...
