My Wyoming Pronghorn
I love pronghorn and that is a nice one. But I absolutely hate snakes and I mean hate in the worst way possible. Congrats on your buck. -

Late summer bluegill
They are my favorite. My dad and I started out catching them when I was just little. I still take my boys. Pound for pound the best fighting fish out there, besides maybe smallmouth.- Tikka06

nosler accubond question
I use the factory loaded 165gr accubonds exclusively in my 30-06. It’s the Nosler Trophy Grade 165’s. I fully intended to handload a 165 or 150 accubond for this rifle but these are more than adequate as far as accuracy goes. Most grouping under .75 and they have been superb on game. The...- Tikka06

Need pointers on muzzleloaders please
I shoot the Barnes 290 TMZ with 110gr of B/H 209 and a Winchester primer in my Knight. It’s a lethal and reliable combo. I’ve killed several whitetails with it and not had any of the issues I have had in the past with muzzleloaders, missfires, unreliable bullet performance, etc. I’m probably... -

Need pointers on muzzleloaders please
I shoot a knight Mountaineer and love it. I have had a T/C omega and it was an ok rifle too. I believe knight makes youth model called a little horn or something. My knight is heavy but with a scope it’s a 300 yard weapon. The scope is coming off next year and I’m taking it to Colorado. -

New Rifle / Range Day
It was a quartering away shot and hit a rib. It penetrated about 1-2 inches and that was it. Knocked her down but I had to finish her off with a follow up shot. The front side lung had all kinds of projectile shards in it. While skinning I never found a piece of the bullet big enough to see what... -

New Rifle / Range Day
I’ve killed deer with both 165gr accubonds and fusions out of my 30-06. I was fond of the fusions until I had one blow up on a whitetail doe at about 200yds. They have always grouped excellent in all my rifles but after that I shoot the accubonds at game. Could be a fluke but I’m not taking any... -

Gauze or No Gauze
First off, I’m an EMT and spent 8 years on an ambulance in a rural county with lots of national forest. Carry the gauze. Get the sealed sterile kind that you can pack a wound with. Carry more than you think you need. Get a tourniquet while you are at it. I’m not sure what my backcountry med kit...- Tikka06

14' Gator Caught in Georgia
I don’t think people realize how big something like that looks in the wild. Years ago on a canoe trip in the Okefenokee swamp in Southern Georgia, I paddled a 12ft canoe up next to what so thought was around an 8 footer, it surfaced and was a foot longer than the boat. My partner quickly took...- Tikka06
