    Where did you end up on muzzleloaders anyway?

    Help me spend my bonus

    You seem like you’d put a pack raft to use. But guns are fun too.

    Would you eat a CWD-positive animal?

    CDC still recommends against eating it. I’m sure all of you will heed what the cdc says (yes sarcasm). These encephalopathies often take decades to develop. So…maybe I’ll consume meat from a positive animal in decades. Either because I’m old enough not to worry much, or we’ve reached a...

    Hornady ELX - No Good for Hunting Elk???

    Add full pass throughs on two deer inside 100 yards broadside and a full pass through on a cow quartered to (on leading edge of shoulder) at 415. None of those three went far at all. Cow dropped in place essentially.

    As they lay

    Simultaneously my longest shot and the shortest pack out I’ve ever had.

    Introduction to Muzzleloading

    Maybe too comprehensive for your needs, but a fun rabbit hole of a channel.

    Introduction to Muzzleloading

    No 209 primers. Primers must be exposed, etc.

    Introduction to Muzzleloading

    I know you’ve hunted units in Idaho with decent muzzleloader seasons as well. Could keep Idaho regs in mind as well. Muzzleloaders are fun and the more traditional style ones are even more fun. Their maintenance and reliability are a bit more of a hassle but not much. Sliding or adjusting...

    What do you call hot?

    I’ve always kinda thought past 10 below and past 105,humidity is irrelevant and it all just feels HOT/COLD as hell respectively.

    Trout Bum is the best starting place probably.

    Gierach Died

    Looks like Gierach died of a reported heart attack yesterday. Ive enjoyed a bunch of his books. I know some felt they were all the same or similar, but to me that was kind of the point.

    Hydration drinks?

    Cramp like crazy for seemingly no reason when out. I’ve had best results with liquid IV. 1 pack per 32 oz or so.

    Let’s see your historic skulls (bison, Dino, etc)

    Really cool. Best I can is a few blue vivianite bison teeth, etc.

    45 Colt & 45-70. What pressures to load to?

    I’ve seen 300 gr JHPs (Remington) shoot really well over 56 gr 3031 in Marlin .45-70s. They’ve been known to leave fist sized exits on whitetails too. Obviously follow your manuals and work up from the minimums etc etc.

    Did anyone see this?

    Yep. Monsters walk among us, and even the closest people to them don’t know. I had a particularly memorable experience with one at 13. Made it out alive, but for a minute I didn’t think anyone would see me again. He’s facing life in federal prison now, but it took decades and other survivors...

    Idaho Seeks to Limit Scope Turrets and Rangefinders

    Not necessarily in favor of regulating it, but the first 8 kinda sound like a good time.

    Idaho Seeks to Limit Scope Turrets and Rangefinders

    If it’s seized as evidence…would you even need to?
