    RMEF national auction

    It's an auction to benefit the Rocky Mountain "ELK" Foundation. Not the Rocky Mountain "BISON" Foundation. That's another auction altogether.

    Soooo I did a dumb thing

    My reply was a little "tongue in cheek". Any quality brand rings and bases are better than any Chinese knock-offs of the same product. I have found lots of accesories on Ebay are designed for air soft applications, and not the real world of hunting or serious competition.

    Soooo I did a dumb thing

    I guess you are lucky you discovered how crappy they were now, instead of half-way through a match when your scope falls to the ground in front of all the spectators. Go for the Murphy Titanium Rail and Farrell steel rings, or somewhere between that and what you bought.

    Help! I can't get my lab to stop digging!

    I read somewhere about sprinkling cayenne pepper (powder) in the soil where they like to dig. When they get a whiff of that, they won't go to that spot anymore. Not sure if that cures them or just makes them go to another spot. Worth a try.

    Wilderness Athlete Discount code

    Understood. I couldn't find anything on any of the containers about where they are manufactured. Looking at the "About us" on the website, it states" ...our products are manufactured exclusively in the United States in NSF certified facilities.... assuring that every product you purchase from us...

    Wilderness Athlete Discount code

    No problem RemingtonRules, I've been using it for several years, and it seems to help. Might be psychological, but hey I've got to spend my mad money on something.

    New 30-06. Thinking about trying copper.

    Yes, I also remember hearing that the 168 is designed to open at a lower velocity than the 165. It was on Barnes' website, and also on a Youtube video about Barnes bullets where Ms. Barnes (??) or another female person from Barnes explained the rationale of lower velocities in the .308 Win and...

    Bear skull open mouth euro

    Fortunately I never experienced that. The gunsafe is in the corner, and the ceiling light is in the center of the room.

    Proposed Big Game Season Structure (BGSS) 2025-2029 - Colorado

    I read a while back it was coming, and Colorado asked for input by having us register on the "Engage CPW" website. Draw only for archery??? Whose idea was that?? As a non-resident I would expect it for me, but not for residents.

    Broken drill bit removal in rifle stock

    Use a pin punch to drive it in another 1/8", then fill the hole up with filler. Touch up paint to finish it. Probably be undetectable after. Drill the needed hole for riser in a different spot with a quality drill bit so you don't have a dejavu. Good luck !! Pics before and after to let us know...

    Jicarilla and Mescalero Cow Hunts

    The casino has been closed since covid. We go to Chama every year (since 1990) for my annual elk hunt, and made a trip to Dulce for the casino once or twice each time just for something to do before and after the hunt. The hotel used to be a Best Western, but has since changed it's name...

    Reloading manual

    Also, never substitute any component for another without reducing the load and slowly working up. Changing a primer, and substituting IMR-4350 for H-4350, and adding a Barnes Mono instead of a cup and core might not cause a serious problem if each is done separately, but do all three at once and...

    Reloading manual

    With a manual, you have an established reliable source for reloading data. Never accept anyone's reloading recipe off of the internet regardless of what they say it does, unless you can confirm it is within safe guidelines of data in your manual. It's too easy for someone to mis-type a number...

    Costco gas

    Do you know who refines it for them? Or do they just buy gas from any refinery that makes it to their specs?

    Most definitive way to determine scope failure

    Maybe this rifle doesn't like the ammunition?? Try another brand with a different bullet type, weight, etc? If you get similar results, I would blame it on the scope.
