I totally like the idea of using a military surplus firearm for deer hunting. I was thinking about a Swiss K31 based on its reputation, but currently have a Remington Model 700. I don't see a lot of deer, so every moment counts. What would people do? I did see a cool video on this topic...
Hello everyone! Deer season is coming fast. I have gone through 4 hanging feeders in the past several years. Where I hunt, bears literally climb the tree and destroy the feeder and tree. I am curious to get peoples' ideas on how to protect your feeder. I saw this ingenious approach on...
Thanks, my issue is I have a bad back and hunt alone. The bear I am targeting this year is like 300 pounds. I was thinking if I built this and put it the truck bed, I could use for the bear. I had the hitch one you describe (Sportsman''s guide) and it failed with my last bear.
I was curious to get peoples' thoughts on a portable ramp that you can build to help get big game into the truck bed. I have tried a bunch of different things, but this one looks really interesting. It uses pvc pipe as rollers and some rebar. I actually think I can build this!

Hello Everyone! I am trying to expand my 8x8 hunting blind to accommodate a handicap hunter, and saw this great video where they expanded the blind using 8x8 sections to create a 8x16 blind. This would be perfect. My question is do you think 1 person could carry the wall sections they...
Hello Everyone! I was interested on getting peoples' thoughts on cheap and functional gun rests. Commercial ones seem too stiff and expensive. I saw this great YouTube video demonstrating a DIY one using rice and an old t-shirt. Curious to get peoples thoughts. Thanks!

Thanks to everyone's thoughts and comments! Super interesting discussion. I still think I am going to calculate my own 95% probability rectangle, just for fun. See you all at the range!
Hey everyone! I finally understand the difference between accuracy and precision after watching a fantastic video on Youtube. I really love the idea of calculating accuracy and precision for both Elevation and Windage using real math to create this 95% probability rectangle. I am curious what...
Thanks, that is what I was thinking. In the video it looks like he has an original 16 inch Bayonette which would likely take it to mid 2000s I guess. The scabbard in the video is not original I know because they had cloth/leather
I have been wanting to get as close to 'as issued' Springfield Model 1903 for the longest time. I really want War time (1917-18) production. There are a ton of mismatched guns out there that are in really rough shape. I saw this near mint version on YouTube and now I am all fired up! How much...
Hello Everyone, I have struggled with getting good target holders that don't get ruined or all shot up. I saw this on YouTube and thought it was pretty cool. I could probably build something like that. Do people have ideas about good DIY target holders? Thanks!
