    Phishing attempts…..show us what they have tried

    I have a cybersecurity business that works with companies to develop security programs and test them. Sadly, we get plenty of calls for help after the fact and the pain is real, both financially and emotionally. I can't overstate how proud I am to see this group talking about it and sharing what...

    Fixed blade for the field

    I got the Benchmade Hidden Canyon with an RMEF donation a year or two ago. I didn't really think to use it, but decided to try it out after some time in a drawer. It was surprisingly excellent. I was worried it was too small for elk, but it actually worked better than my other knives due to its...

    Unpopular Opinion on Brisket

    Just had some killer brisket this week, when its good, its real good! But I have had plenty that were just so-so especially from restaurants. I wouldn't completely discount it, but be prepared to have plenty that are just kinda meh.

    How much water do you carry in your pack?

    I generally bring 3 liters or so in my water bladder and keep an empty smart water bottle with a sawyer kit for emergencies. I don't always use it up, but when I get something on the ground that extra water to sip away at is heavenly come meat packing time.

    "Now it's my turn!" -Federal circa 2025

    I won't be buying one, but I do find it interesting. I'm sure there were plenty of detractors when the first lever guns came out, as well as smokeless powder and so on. Some of it will catch on, some won't, time will tell with all of the latest and greatest. It's exciting to see that companies...

    Dad Joke thread

    The other day while out in Maryland We were driving past Oakville, and they had some massive event going on. It's a little town, but it was packed, cars lined up down the country road on both ends of town. Apparently, they have a contest every year to see who can grow a russet potato to some...

    EOY '24 - What Worked, What Didn't

    Worked: - CGS Hyperion K. I put it on my 300 WM and absolutely love it. I screwed it on, sent a round downrange to see POI shift and was dead on. I can switch between brake and suppressor with no shift. - Exo K3 4800. I really don't know how I could justify switching to the k4. It hauls 90+...

    Retirement Gift Ideas?

    I second this. A memento of his most notable project would make for a nice gift.

    Favorite Leatherman Model

    I've carried the Signal for years and absolutely love it. It clips into my pocket nicely and has never missed a beat. I have some nice pocket knives but can't live without my screwdriver and pliers. Also, the little hammer surface on the end has been surprisingly useful!

    kenetrek vs crispi - more waterprooferer?

    So far my Kenetreks have been excellent in the water resistance department, the best of any boot I have owned. After going through many different brands, I've found that it's usually the seams or boot lace rivets that start to let water in regardless of the waterproofing material. The Kenetreks...

    Binos that work with glasses

    I just adjust my binoculars to be crisp without my glasses on and bump my glasses up onto my forehead to look. Not ideal, but it seems to work for the most part. I'll be interested to hear if anyone drops any comments about an alternative.

    Camo pant suggestions

    Two things come to mind: Redhead brand from Cabelas can get the job done for a lower price point, my Brother in Law has it and has had pretty good luck with it for the money. I have slowly upgraded my stuff to higher end so I can't give you any live preference there. The other thing I would...

    Recently hunted in South Africa. Anyone want a recap?

    Please do it. A lot of us will likely never end up doing it, but it's sure a treat to live vicariously through the tales told.

    .308 win bullet selection for new reloader

    I wasn't a big fan of the TTSX 168s for group sizes, even though my heart was set on them. I eventually gave up and tried the 155 ELD-M. They shoot really well out of my wife's sig cross. Lots of choices out there, best of luck finding your golden ticket!

    Maven, Leupold, Trijicon, NF

    I was going to go the 4-32 based on similar things i read online, but once I had them next to each other and considered them for hunting it was a pretty easy choice. I was concerned that a slightly smaller eyebox on the 2.5 would make it harder to get lined up in a hunting situation but it has...

    Maven, Leupold, Trijicon, NF

    I use the Nx8 2.5-20 on my hunting rifle. I absolutely love it. It is definitely heavy, but it Just. Flat. Works. I had the thought of using my scope to see farther but IMO it really doesn't work that well, on top of being unsafe. I went with slightly higher magnification binoculars and have a...

    Moving to the South?

    Just my .02 and worth what you paid for it... If you go, you will likely never be able to come back. I'd see if you cant leverage your contacts in Montana to find a more affordable area to live in state and keep good work. I have had a brother and a good friend move away and I really don't see...

    Sighting in a 7mm-08 for the first time

    Congrats on the deer! Reminds me a lot of getting started in my teens, just a few rounds of ammo to my name and a desperation to get outdoors. In a perfect world we would have plenty of ammo and time to perfect our shooting and have all the mentorship be an excellent woodsman but reality is...

    Stevens rifles

    I had a Stevens in .270 in my teenage years. It kicked harder than anything I have shot since (I shoot a 300 win mag now). I thought i was just gun shy but I traded it to my buddy and he went out, shot it and came back with a purple shoulder. He now shoots something else as well. I'm guessing...
