    Long Range Accubond

    Midway and others are still saying coming soon and I haven't seen anyone taking pre-orders. Definitely looks like these will be worth trying!

    Eberlestock Team Elk Pack

    Do we ever have goup buys on the forum? I would think there would be 5-10 guys that would buy a pack at the same time if we could save a little money. Just curious, some sites have them ongoing all the time.

    Eberlestock Team Elk Pack

    I have the X1 which is basically the X3 minus the oversized scabbard. I think you will be wanting for more room, it is a great pack but I dont see being able to get much of an animal in it for packing out. The Team Elk also has the scabbard and an integrated bow holder which has to be added on the others, if you need one. No wrong choice just pointing out some of the differences.

    Who has the best steak in town?

    Azshtr. I haven't gotten a ticket there but I agree. I think they have 4 cameras now and it is a joke and annoys me every time I drive through.

    Calling Advice

    Good advice! You can turn the call down some if it is cranked up by I just let it go as well. A decoy can make a huge difference. Oh and missing is part f the game. They move a lot faster than they look and rarely in a straight line.

    Eberlestock Team Elk Pack

    I was looking at the X2 for a smaller pack and an archery pack but I think I like the Elk pack even better. I have a dragonfly and an X2 this would fit nicely right between them. It still has room for a big spotter and tripod which starts to limit the room left in the X1. Only downside it is a little on the heavy side like most Eberle packs.
  10. Just a card hit so D until I know what hunt then maybe E
  11. The better glass... Although the weaver scops are surprisingly good so look at them both. The one thing you did t mention was weight and Zeiss are some of the lightest available.

    Need a Good Hunting Boot

    The Salomon's have been getting great reviews the last few years and quite a few editor's choice awards. I will probably check them out at REI next time I get over there.
  14. Perfect! Can you imagine the statistics if this were to take off? Percentage of houses robbed that do not have guns... 100%!

    Need a Good Hunting Boot

    Figure out what features you want then find what fits the best. I have had Rock, Danner, Under Armour, Irish Setter, Asolo, Zamberlan, Cabaleas and some other cheap ones. For my foot (slightly narrow) the Asolo are still the best feeling boots regardless of price and the Zamberlan make a big difference if I am going to lug a heavy pack. A boot for heavy packing is a different creature from a regular hiking and hunting boot and your feet will thank you if you have a good pair. Insoles can help a great deal as well. Things to think of, Terrain, water-proofing, packing, shape of your foot such as arch & width, and insulation needed. A good place to start is to talk to the people at REI and try on a bunch of boots there, and at Sportsmans, and Bass Pro. Good luck!
  16. I wet through this with my daughter, we went on three separate visits to Sportsman's and a few to Bass Pro and she held everything in stock in a .243. She ended up going back to the Tikka T3 Light and the Winchester Feather-light. Neither of them technically a youth rifle, they were both lighter than most of the youth rifles. Well the Win cost 2x the Tikka so she has had a Tikka for a few years now and it shoots fantastic in stock form. Also, it is a really great little carry rifle if I do any walking varmint hunting or decide to do any big pack trips. If it were to be too long I would have had it cut and then bought an aftermarket stock down the road.

    Anyone want to take me and my kids Striper fishing???

    Okay I am not much of a striper fisherman but have a boat and I am in your neck of the woods.

    Anyone want to take me and my kids Striper fishing???

    Are you just looking to use a boat or help with fishing? What part of the valley are you in?

    Backpacks!!! Looking for some info

    You can pair the Kifaru gun bearer w the Kuiu. Going to be almost impossible to get lighter than that! You can also strap the rifle down if you are not hunting. For a very reasonable tipi check go lite. Lots of vids and write ups on how to add a stove pipe hole that is fire proof. Lightest stove I have seen is Ti Mountain Goat out of Utah.

    6.5x284

    I switched from the FED magnums to CCI primers due to the same reason and had much more consistent spreads as well. I have been using them with good results in magnum calipers. I am still using the fed's in a couple of calibers that don't seem to care which primer.
