    Idaho Seeks to Limit Scope Turrets and Rangefinders

    Yeah. or the fixed 4x scopes on a bunch of ww2 snipers. It reinforces the idea that magnification doesn’t limit as much as i think a lot people think it does.

    Idaho Seeks to Limit Scope Turrets and Rangefinders

    Thanks. I’ve never broken 10 so it’s not something I’ve payed close attention to.

    Idaho Seeks to Limit Scope Turrets and Rangefinders

    I’d wager shooting to 500 with 4x and a dialing turret isn’t too terrible on elk. 300 hasn’t been.

    Idaho Seeks to Limit Scope Turrets and Rangefinders

    I always thought it was interesting there was some kind of 12lb rule for rifles but people can still essentially lock their rifle in a heavy tripod and shoot.

    A lot of bowhunting range finders don't, or are pretty unreliable at that range.

    Idaho Seeks to Limit Scope Turrets and Rangefinders

    Interesting. Wouldn't effect me much. I guess the question is would it reduce take enough if only the law abiding folks are following the rule? I agree enforcement is ridiculous. I'd rather see an increase in fines for motorized stuff. Compared to non-resident tag prices I think its laughable.

    Marlin guide gun

    With options out now, I probably wouldn't buy a Remington unless I could really look through it.

    Any self-surgeons out there?

    I was just telling the wife how I did this several times as a tween/teen. Kept getting infected and wasn’t resolved until an actual podiatrist removed the root from both sides of both great toes.

    Random news stories thread. (No politics or i will find where you live and light a bag of dog crap on fire on your porch ring the doorbell and run)

    I agree, but also think the superintendent is making a moral appeal in hopes of discouraging cumulative increased mortality of wolves outside the park. It feels kinda disingenuous or like a red herring.

    Met a teenager whose mom told him to open fire on people in a similar situation. He got 6 new holes from LEOs. Went from impulsive teen to special needs. Mom lost custody big surprise.

    G Bear fatality in Yellowstone ( one year ago ) yesterday.

    After knowing they’d be fine, rewatching the kid get left behind makes me laugh. I might be a horrible person. My favorite hydrothermal fact I learned after the explosion today: “Ear Spring, near Old Faithful, exploded in 2018, sending not only rocks fly ing but garbage dating back to the...

    What are you currently reading?

    Westward Into Kentucky has been a pretty great insight into early settlement during the rev war and explains a number of their techniques for living/surviving back then. It’s worth a look if you can handle the phonetic spelling and other old time vernacular. My favorite part language wise is...

    Do you own a scout rifle? Is it worth getting one?

    I think with relatively light magazine fed semi autos and red dots/LPVOs, the traditional scout rifle is obsolete for its original use case. The closest thing I’m interested in buying (outside of a handy lever action or pretty standard t3x) is a Shuff’s Mini-G in .35 whelen.

    Elk Hunting Knives........

    I have one I inherited from somehwere as well. It’s ridden in various vehicles as a backup for a couple decades. I’ve had some trouble getting it to keep an edge. Maybe I should take a closer look again if it’s served you that well.

    The Rinella Effect

    I read his Buffalo book when it first came out and was pretty excited about it and his ability to communicate from a hunters perspective. Then I caught the first audio of him speaking on “BookTV” on CSPAN and was crestfallen. I was sure this guy wasn’t going anywhere in visual/audio media...

    School Me on Hunting In Grizz Country

    Of what you have I’d carry (and have carried) the .357 with hard cast bullets second to bear spray. One thing to consider ammo wise are Lehigh defens extreme penetrator bullets. They’re lighter, penetrate almost as much as hard cast, and create some soft tissue damage. But using different...
