    Spotting Scope Recommendations

    When I started hunting CO for elk and mule deer, I always had a spotter. After a few years I realized how much more useful good quality binoculars on a tripod mount were to me than the spotter. Eventually I stopped carrying the spotter and just went with the bins on a tripod setup. Spotters...

    Land management agency impact stories...

    Reorganization and RIF plans from each agency were due yesterday. Competitive areas are being identified. Rubber is about to meet the road. Buckle up. Gonna be a bumpy next few months.

    7MM-08, max range for deer/elk?

    I've hunted with the 7mm-08 for about 10 years now, and the 7x57 for a few years before that. I've seen spectacular results on whitetails and mule deer, and a few results that didn't impress me (all from the 120 TTSX). When I chased elk, I had the 162 ELD-X at around 2600 fps and was confident...

    Howa Superlite - my experience

    It was very affordable. Just call LSI and ask them to mail you one. They were easy to deal with.

    Corner Crossing latest

    Depends on what you mean when you say "Their." The public is entitled to access their property (public land) through a legal means. Private citizens do not have the right to interfere, although all across the west, they routinely do because of their greed and sense of entitlement. Every...

    Agency RIF guidance is coming out

    That's what I see as well. I was told the agencies have been given targets but I'm not sure where to find those. I figured some folks would want to see the guidance related to "ranking" or status in the event of a RIF, or the timeline for notification. If I find the actual agency plans, I'll...

    Land management agency impact stories...

    So here's the deal with the probies right now - any of them who made news like this, or who exercised their 1A rights while they were "fired" are now potential targets for the re-boot of the valentine's massacre. Handing the authority to OPM to fire other agency's employees subverts the...

    Land management agency impact stories...

    We're seeing things our country has never seen before, but I agree with you that we will have elections. Even Russia and Iran have "elections." I mean, why not have an event that transfers hundreds of millions if not billions of dollars to carefully chosen candidates so they can claim to have...

    Corner Crossing latest

    Sure could have used this when I was hunting CO every year, and NM years before then. There were a number of honey holes I couldn't reach without crossing a corner. All I could do was watch from afar. Crossing one corner I know near a county road in SE NM would have made over 8k acres of BLM...

    Here we go again. I'm afraid all those probationary employees are about to be re-fired. https://www.govexec.com/workforce/2025/03/trump-memo-grants-government-wide-firing-power-opm/403968/?oref=ge-home-top-story This will be wildly unpopular. So much so that if they re-fire all the...

    SOLD - Nikon ED 50 w/13-40 eyepiece w/phone skope adapter

    That's a great price. These are fantastic little scopes. Hard to believe how small and light they are, and that is the best eyepiece ever made for the ED50. I've seen those eyepieces sell for $250 by themselves. GLWS

    Water Bottles or Water Bladder

    Smartwater bottles are all I use anymore. VERY lightweight, no crinkle sound, and slip into most pockets with ease. Plus they are the same thread as the Sawyer filters.

    EMERGENCY!!! Returning to the dream of one hunting rifle…

    The more I shoot and load for my .300 WSM, the more I wonder why it took me so long to find this cartridge. It has very quickly become one of my all time favorite rifles.

    Camas wildlife refuge

    The assumption is that state wildlife areas are any better managed. In most cases, they have less funding and are much more subject to political influence. Randy has explained the phenomenon of defunding public lands and then pointing the finger at them for being poorly managed as a specific...

    Colorado SB 25-003 gun ban defunds CPW

    "but your username..." May you never look at another bird during a hunt without thinking of that one random guy on the internet. 😘

    Colorado SB 25-003 gun ban defunds CPW

    True. I didn't see anyone praising it though. I did see bayoublaster mischaracterize my apathy as praise however. Weird.
