If you have the option, go to the UPS distribution center to ship items. Employees at the UPS stores aren’t knowledgable on the shipping rules but typically the workers at the center are pretty good.
I know the UPS stores near me won’t accept any packages gun or ammo related, I have to ship at...
Go to the KS outdoors website and check out their online hunting atlas. Fall 2024 isn’t out yet but the atlas will give you an idea of how much public land is in each zone.
Had this problem several years ago with two boxes of 300 wsm Federal 180’s, they were manufactured before the demand skyrocketed. Like std7 indicated, just because the factory loaded it doesn’t mean its always right.
Started hunting with a Remington 760 in 270 when I was 14. Had the see thru scope rings which were horrible actually trying to see thru the scope. Still in the back of the safe 30+ years later, changed out the rings but I’ve never killed anything with it. May need to change that this year.
I typically wear either a pair of unlined deerskin gloves or a pair of uninsulated Mechanix workwear gloves. Both are thin enough for good trigger feel and plenty warm when walking. Never seen the need for insulated gloves during bird hunting.
Have you looked at moving to a 275/60 tire, minimal height increase but there‘s a ton of choices in that size.

Does seem like the cutoff for a lot of hunting clothing manufacturers is around 42/32 or 42/34 on their pants.
Kuiu does make 3xl tops and jackets in some of their lines, and some of their pants go up to 42x37 in their tall inseam. Looks like Skre makes up to 4x in their tops.
As many on this...
Figure it's a long shot with how ammo supplies have been but I'm looking for 140 or 150 grain 270 WSM ammo, seems the ammo companies are only loading 130 gr lately.
If they do their pheasant stocking similar to PA there will be multiple days over the course of the season when they will put birds out. PA publishes their schedule on the website so all the "hunters" can follow the stocking truck to the field and hunt, IL may do the same, or provide a range of...
The Wilderness Ridge is threaded 5/8x24 and the brake comes off. I'm assuming the Ridge is threaded with the same pitch but I couldn't find that on the website.
I have a Bergara Hunter in 300 Win Mag and I like it so far. Some people aren't fans of it but I like their soft touch stock...
