    Swiss K31 vs. Remington Model 700 for Deer Hunting

    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...

    Bear-Proof Hanging Deer Feeder Ideas?

    Tailgate Ramp for Large Deer

    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.

    Tailgate Ramp for Large Deer

    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! YouTube Link

    Large Hunting Blind for Handicap Person

    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...

    Hey everyone! I finally understand the difference between accuracy and precision after watching a fantastic video on Youtube.

    Springfield Model 1903- I Need One!!!

    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

    Springfield Model 1903- I Need One!!!

    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...
