    44hunter45's 2024 backcountry Idaho Moose semi-live hunt thread.

    @44hunter45, sorry to hear you didn't get your moose. I to understand to struggle to stay in the field as I've gotten older. And well said about Randy's motto. As the old saying goes, I represent that remark.

    Barnes Original 190 gr. in .30-30

    Thanks for the reply Griz. That's what I would think too, but found some info to the contrary. But on data point - one guy, one rifle. The extra weight does slow it a bit but not as much as you'd think. Mason Outdoor did a Youtube video on the Barnes factory load and it was running averaged...

    AFRICA! Bucket List nears... September.

    While each one is special, and has its own unique memory, of the three shoulder mounts I had done after my trip the kudu is my favorite. It not only looks like Africa, but it is an impressive animal. But, as someone said, they are big. My shoulder mount is about 60" brisket to the top of the...

    44hunter45's 2024 backcountry Idaho Moose semi-live hunt thread.

    Great looking rifle. Never shot one, but always thought the .358 Norma was an underappreciated cartridge. Hunting moose vicariously thru you, 44hunter45!

    Lever Monday...post em up

    Nice shrapnel! Where do you get your brass for the .40-72? Or do you form it from other brass?

    7600 Makeover

    Nice looking rifle! I grew up seeing those and the 7400s a lot. They always remind me of thick country deer hunting and Larry Benoit.

    Rebounding Hammer on Lever Guns

    I'm not sure if that is the correct term or what, but that's what I've heard them called - after striking the firing pin the hammer bounces back to about what would be half-kock position. Yeah, I've also heard it called the solution to a problem that didn't exist.

    custom rifle suggestions

    OH, sounds like we are all saying a similar thing. If you have the desire and the tools go for it. If you want to let the guy who is installing the barrel give the rest his expert attention go for it too! While, at 61 yo I do question the younger generation :), but it's not over this issue.

    Rebounding Hammer on Lever Guns

    2024 Idaho Moose Thread

    You Sir are a hardcore, dedicated bowhunter. (y) A friend and I drew up that way in the late '90, I was using a recurve bow at the time. I took my 30-06 on our second trip. Bad fires that year...never saw a moose.
