    Let's stir the pot here

    Quote: What happened to understanding where your opponent came from to work towards a common compromise? Compromise is great......unless it’s always the same side that is compromising. When this happens one side surrenders it’s values while the other side marches to victory! memtb

    How's the weather where you are?

    Much warmer than usual and very dry. We’ve only had a few days below zero! We need some good cold winters, to help keep the “riff raff” out! memtb

    A thing of beauty!

    That’s a beautiful rifle, far too pretty for me to own. It wouldn’t be that pretty very long! If it kills as pretty as it looks......it will be deadly! :) memtb

    Any comments on 300 Weatherby Mag?

    rjthehunter, I had the opportunity to shoot a friend’s Ruger #1 in a 416 Rigby. I didn’t find the recoil offensive at all....however, that was from a standing position. Shooting it from the bench may have been a different experience! ;) I should’ve had my wife shoot it.....but she was...

    Reloading the 375 H&H

    I’ve only loaded 270 Hornady SP’s in my H&H, and was using WW 760. I was several grains above the suggested book loads of the day, but, it was a listed load in an ancient Hornady Loading Manual. I don’t know the velocities, as I didn’t have a chronograph at that time. But, it was very, very...

    If you have a .308, and want to move up, consider a .338 WM. The ammo is more readily available and less expensive than the Weatherby cartridge family. The .338 WM is a great little “all around cartridge”. Once you get comfortable with it.....it may become your only hunting cartridge. memtb

    Anyone live in or purchase a modular home?

    We have a Cape Cod Modular Home. And, just like a mobile home, there are vast differences in quality. Another thing to consider, is the onsite quality of your contractors. Piss poor local contractors can make a “quality” modular into a less than desirable home! Ask me how I know this!:mad: memtb

    Tell us about your elk failures

    Mark, We’ve suffered more than a few disappointments, the majority were self-imposed. The most notable being, for the previous 3 hunting seasons, passing on multiple easy kills on small bulls or cows, only to go home empty handed a couple of weeks later. This year, we decided to take the first...

    Always wanted one

    I’ve never been “bitten” by the Python bug! It offers nothing that you couldn’t get from a “Smith” with a few extra minutes of work (fitting/ polishing) during assembly and a little “richer” blueing. IMO, it’s merely a “status symbol”.....much like some other firearms and a motorcycle brand...
