So I shot the xdm, 10 mm. Its really snappy, even with the mild target ammo. I got a couple boxes of hsm bear load, but want to try the penetrators also. I haven’t tried the bear load yet. The trigger is terrible, and will need work. I’ll need a lot of practice, as I think it will be difficult to be stalwart with an angry bear charging. The 15 round mag is certainly comforting. I honestly think a slug gun would be more comforting, but it is a cumbersome thing to lug around.

Wow. Congrats!! just pick the one that is most comfortable to shoot, and that you can shoot most accurately. All three brands are solid.

I picked up some factory loads for my 300 win mag. I grabbed some 200 grain Honrady ELD-X. It seems some people love 'em, and some people hate 'em. What are your thoughts on them for large game? Elk, moose, etc.

interesting. looks like separation. how big was the bear?

Sounds exciting. Keep us posted on the details when you get back.

Just thinking ahead. Would like to fish and hunt up there in about 5 years.

I’m worried about target acquisition with a revolver, and double action accuracy. They say even a 44 mag won’t stop a grizzly attack unless it’s in the spine or brain. There’s a case where a guy was killed by a grizzly lately and it appeared he didn’t have a round in the pipe of his glock. That’s why I’m leaning xdm, you have the chamber indicator. a 12 gauge with slugs is also recommended, but can be cumbersome while fishing or dressing wild game. nothings perfect, I guess.

If glue Down vinyl planking then yes, you have to tear out the tile. If a waterproof style click lock vinyl planking (spc or wpc)then no,all you have to do is float the grout joints with floor patch. Let it set up. Make sure the floor is level and dry. And then you can install a floating floor right on top. If you want to do a glue down floor, you have to tear up all the way down to the concrete. And then Sand the concrete to make sure it is perfectly clean. i recommend paradigm flooring. Some of the best on the market. i have a showroom in Payson if your interested and in the neighborhood. i am a licensed flooring contractor.

i put a brake on my '06, and the wife and kid shoot it just fine. but wear earplugs.

Welp, we got locked out with bad weather on our recent trips to Missouri. Guide said birds were stale, and the weather was holding up the migration, but we were already in town visiting the in-laws and our time was limited. I canceled 2 days of the hunt, and gambled on the last day, just to give it an effort. Guide wanted us to hunt a week later for fresh birds, but we had to get home. Saw probably a couple hundred thousand geese, but they were not decoying as they had been there for a while. Still, we got off a few volleys. good times with the boy anyways.

We had hopes!!

Make it three. It’s an easy tag to get, yet a tough hunt. Ill take it, rather than a season on the couch.

I was looking for pie. But if you find one let me know. My iron rangers could use a new sole.

Who me?? Nooooo..... In all seriousness I just found out my FIL sold off some land, so my hunting ground just got smaller. 😢 but he did just build a lake so we could fish when we come out. So I’ll forgive him.

Dating a woman to gain access to a hunting lease can be tricky business if your wife finds out.

Yeah, some great hunting back east. I’d look at going in on a lease in Pennsylvania, Kentucky, Indiana, or Missouri. Cheap, good hunting if you are looking, in certain states. I was paying 225 for 4 tags in Missouri, 2 deer and 2 turkey, and additional tags were 25 each. if you’re single, you need to be dating a midwestern farmers daughter. Worked for me.

Through the Adventure Payson (city chamber of commerce) facebook page, i'm giving away this camp kitchen from bass pro, and a Cabela's grill. Follow the directions on the Adventure Payson facebook page to be entered. thx!!! https://m.facebook.com/adventurepayson/photos/a.1453628388183172/2196004167278920/?type=3&source=48

I’m not gonna hammer people with ads. You may get notifications from adventure Payson, but you can unfollow to get rid of those if you want. But the give aways are cool, my cousin just won specialized bikes for his kids on that page.

Unfortunately I can only give this to one person. Lol.

I’m for not taking your truck off road. Get an atv or a side by side for that. How bad do you want to beat up your truck? The sxs just takes it with ease. i drive an lbz duramax, no issues. Plenty of power if you need it. Solid Allison transmission. I just can’t afford the mechanic’s bill for a Ford.

It’s a dating app for narcissists and busybodies. duh.

Yeah but 97% of scientists say.... funny how In the northern hemisphere summer they always show pictures of the arctic melting and in the southern hemisphere summer they always show the pictures of the Antarctic ice melting. But they never show it during the climate winter. that, and little things, like the ice roads still freeze and melt at the same time each year.

Would be awesome for your elk or deer camp.

I hear ya, but not sure this is any where near the biggest in 100 years. I’ve heard locals say we got 6 feet in ‘67. I’ve lived here 22 years, and recall a couple of dumps that were at least close to this one. I remembered one year, around 01ish, sunrise was purported to have the deepest base in the lower 48, I think it was 108”.

They were on clearance last week. Not sure if they still are.
