    Wow. another scammer offered me a scout scope. What's up with the classifieds here? Sheesh. No longer interested here.

    Thanks. I guess it was bound to happen and I finally had my turn. I'm usually pretty cautious and I did smell something "off" but didn't catch the photoshop job until a few days later. Now I've not heard a thing from Venmo, if they can even do anything about it. The question I keep asking is...

    Howa Alpine Mountain Rifle

    2 years ago I knew a shop that had two on the shelf, one in .243 and the other in .308. They wanted $1100 for each, even though they had been sitting there collecting dust for several years. Might still have the .308. They sold the .243 right before I left that area. Great rifles. Wish I...

    Welp, after years and years of buying and selling online, I finally got scammed. Clever SOB too, as they put what appeared to be a sticky note with hand-written dates and email address in one of the photos of the scope. Pretty good photoshop job. But now I'm out $120 unless Venmo can recover...

    trying to make muzzleloader shooting experience more enjoyable/hard to seat bullets

    Didn't read all the replies but I'm guessing you need to try different sabots because the combo you're using now is oversized for your bore. The right sabot/bullet combo will load easily, I promise. T/C's are notorious for tight bores. My CVA Optima bore measures at .502" and I use a...

    Found one. Thanks everyone. I would buy another if there is one more still out there. Would also consider a Burris 2.75x Scout scope. Thank you!

    Leupold VX-Freedom 3-9x40 Matte Duplex

    For what ridiculous prices that most scopes are going for these days, this is a steal of a deal. VX-Freedom scopes are very good scopes that adopted all the VX-2 tech before them. You won't do better for $175 these days. GLWS

    6.5 CM Savage barrel, dies, brass and 420+ bullets

    Back up. Sale didn't go through. I don't mind keeping the barrel and dies, but I have no practical use for the bullets. Nambaster, the box of 15 has 120 grain CX bullets and the box of 72 has 143 grain ELD-X bullets. Make me an offer.

    Dan Ashe: former USFWS director, “useful idiot” for the anti-hunting movement

    Unless there are former directors of the premier wildlife conservation agency in the world on here, I am pretty confident with what I said. I've studied the "North American Model" since the 80's. Have you? Predator threads on hunting forums are rife with misinformation. This one is no...

    Dan Ashe: former USFWS director, “useful idiot” for the anti-hunting movement

    Nobody's opinion elevates them above others. Their education and experience does. Nobody here can match credentials with Ashe. Just because someone wants to limit hunting in one specific area doesn't make them anti-hunting. Even Aldo Leopold advocated for restrictions on hunting where they...

    Dan Ashe: former USFWS director, “useful idiot” for the anti-hunting movement

    Lots of googling, cutting and pasting and you still didn't answer my question. Lots of money for CWD research. We all know that. My question was how much do you expect to be available for research specifically on the effect of limiting mountain lion hunting on CWD prevalence. My guess is...

    Dan Ashe: former USFWS director, “useful idiot” for the anti-hunting movement

    Exactly how much $ do you think is available for research showing the effects of prohibitions on Mountain lion hunting on CWD prevalence? Surely not enough to draw definitive conclusions. But this is predators so of course there will be controversy. Everyone will point to the study that...

    He is a wildlife professional. More so than anyone commenting on this thread.

    Dan Ashe: former USFWS director, “useful idiot” for the anti-hunting movement

    Dan Ashe is a smart guy. I know him personally. His intentions are good and he is a sportsman himself. If you have an issue with his position, it might be because you lack information or have a biased agenda. But it's probably not because he is poorly informed. He is a lifelong wildlife...
