    35 Whelen

    The 35 Whelen is a glaring hole in my stable of #1. I am currently looking for one with just the right wood. I’ve a very good friend I guided with up in Alaska. He will start his 20th season hunting big bears on the Peninsula. He carries a 35 Whelen as his stopper. Said there has never been a...

    Oregon has a broad ranging assumption of risk law as well. We’ve got it posted by the gate. I also have a sign I liberated some decades ago. Reads Danger, do not enter, small arms fallout area.

    Your dog’s quirk?

    Grizzly shit. Particularly in August when the bears are on salmon and berries. Damn dog, on a daily basis almost, would head out from the lodge to the nearest pile and roll in it. Then she would head for the guests to share what she had found. Her registered name is Molly Damnit

    Shotguns

    Watch gun broker for shells. I find good deals there a couple times a year that beat Sportsman’s or Cabelas even with shipping and I don’t have to drive 3 hours to get them:)

    Spencer's double rifle from the 1923 TV Series

    I finally tuned in last night, didn’t bother to go back to previous episodes. Only a brief glimpse of the rifle last night, pretty dang sure it’s not a Rigby rifle. Kinda looks like a Sabatti but will continue to monitor the show see if I can figure out who’s rifle it is. A current production...

    Spencer's double rifle from the 1923 TV Series

    The better London houses were able to build doubles for the 416 rigby but, yes it was designed around a Mauser action originally. I’ve shot one elk with the 577 double I owned for a while. I learned that a700 grain lion tough soft point was designed to run north to south on a charging lion. It...

    Porqupine eating brake hoses and tires

    We would have porcupines, otters, squirrels, foxes and once a grizz spend the winter under our cabins in Alaska. Porcupines and otters were the worst.

    Cancer fight begins

    Good luck, Mayo did a great job for my younger brother and my Uncle. My uncle was struck with two different cancers about two years apart. He is in remission on both and getting ready for birthday 85. Those docs there are outstanding.

    Sunday Pic of the Day

    We hit a lot of those washes, kinda like walking in snow but not. Best thing about wintering down here, there is an awful lot of good accessible conditioning hikes. Your little pup did well on those short legs. :)

    Bullets for the "Raking Shot"?

    I used partitions for a long time, switched over to Accubonds in my 338 Jarrett and 375 HH. Two years ago I muffed a quarter away shot at a walking bull. Took him above the right knee, breaking the leg the bullet then entered just ahead of the last rib, cut the top off the heart and exited...
