    HOWA questions here

    I swear I saw a post regarding this... made me go down the rabbit hole. Has anyone purchased a rifle package only to find that the scope box serial number didn't match the serial number on the scope? I haven't called Leupold to make sure the scope on the gun is the same model. I am also...

    7.62 in Howa .308

    Yeah - 7.62 x 51. It was the white box of winchester rounds so not even some odd off-brand import!

    7.62 in Howa .308

    In the ammo shortage of '21 I thought I was getting a good deal when I found a package of 7.62 on the shelf at a reasonable price! I brought these along with a box of .308 shells for my first sight-in session. Well, that didn't turn out very well. Started out with the 7.62 shell and found that I...

    Help me pick a new pack

    I really like how this convo went full circle. Excellent follow up! I'll echo the comments on buying multiple and sending them back. That is how business works these days, if you treat the stuff well there is no loss to the business and they get a happier customer eventually.

    SOLD-First Lite X Nemo Kodiak 2P Tent

    It looks like an awesome tent! I am sure someone will pick it up. I am in the same camp trying to find a jack of all trades - only finding master of none!

    HOWA questions here

    I am happy to say I should be picking up my .308 shortly from Sportsman's Warehouse. Looks like they found the last one on the shelves. Looking at the new Howa catalog there is no indication that this rifle is still in production... probably hard enough to keep any rifle in production with such...

    HOWA questions here

    I stopped by Sportsman's Warehouse this past weekend to take a look at the Randy Newberg - Howa rifle. They indicated that this line was no longer being produced and they are selling out the remaining stock. What's up with that? I was ready to "pull the trigger" on this rifle only to find it is...

    What’s in your pack and your rifle?

    This topic never gets old and I always take away a item or two! Thank you everyone for sharing - the question I have... what do you put your stuff in? I was really interested in getting a backcountry organizer from Outdoor Research, but it looks like they stopped making them. I would like to...

    Video Idea - Gear Care and Storage

    I agree! I don't think there is a video out there that Randy completed I haven't watched but I am very interested in learning more about storage and care. To be selfish - I am moving into an apartment so storage space is limited and I would like to see what strategies are available to those...

    Public lands trash packout

    Good on you for pulling all that stuff out of the woods, though I don't know if I would have the nerve to say that to a warden! During LEO training for Natural Resources the officers are often asked to consider what a judge is going to say about the citation or arrest. Unfortunately, at that...

    First Euro Attempt- Sous Vide

    Never thought of using a sous vide, that's a pretty smart idea. Though I think I may get some funny looks from the better half, maybe do that when she's out of town. When I did my euro I was surprised how the bone firmed up after so it may not be ruined.

    Midwest Greenhorn - Hello!

    It's hard enough to think of a username, don't really know the legacy behind Greenhorn being mentioned previously.

    Do-it-all freezer filling rifle

    Many of these posts mention the Tikka, when I was checking them out at the local store it seemed to me that the actions were tight, took effort to cycle the action, more so than other brands. Does that just wear down eventually or is it something to do with the smaller angle? I am really on...

    Midwest Greenhorn - Hello!

    Hello! I have been a casual viewer of the forum and finally stepped up to participate. I've primarily hunted deer with a rifle every fall and turkeys every spring, in WI. Big fan of turkey hunting as the weather is typically more conducive to a nice mid-morning nap. A few years ago I...

    Another box is checked

    This was a great story and video to watch. Thank you for all you share with this community. I do have a question, how do you determine which rifle you are going to take / use on each hunt? This one you used your .300 Win Mag, that shot worked out that many of your rifles would have been able to...
