HuntHarder

Thanks man, If I do not find one for a deal, I will buy one new by the end of July to have in time for hunting season.

I have a duplex with 3 different bags and love it. It is a 26" frame but I am considering getting a new hunter frame in 24". CJL2010- Do you notice any difference in comfort with old duplex vs. the new hunter frame? I have been keeping my eye on the Rokslide Classifieds for a 24" but I am not in a hurry because my duplex is pretty dang comfortable as is. On my nomad pack, I attached the badlands buttstock carrier to the bottom and use a lash kit up top to secure my rifle will packing in. I thought about doing the eberlestock scabbord, but I did not want to pick up all the extra weight associated with it. If you want your gun completely protected I like the scabbord idea, if not, a simply buttstock carrier attachment like the badlands or gun bearer works great.

I am looking for a Tikka in a WSM. I only need the action, figured I would start here and if no one has one, I will buy a new one. Thanks

That is good news. I always wondered why .277 never really had a large selection of long range bullets.

Nice looking bear, is that Point of Pines?

Running 12-2 romex instead of 14-2 gives you the ability to put the circuit on 20 amp breakers. This can be beneficial in some areas, but is completely over kill in others. Rather than having larger wire, simply add more circuits to each room. The biggest problem in most houses is to many outlets on one circuit. Lots of houses have both bathrooms on 1 20 amp breaker with a Single GFI protecting both. It is much better to have separate circuits for each bathroom to avoid overloading the circuit when a blow dryer is used in both bathrooms at the same time. Another huge problem with most houses is the lack of pig-tailing wires in each device box. Outlets give you the ability to feed in and out of them. This in turn, runs all the amperage of said circuit thru the actual device closest to the panel. It is a much better practice to pig tail the in and out runs in each box and have a single lead (i.e. hot leg, neutral and ground) going to the outlet this puts the outlet in parallel rather than series. Wiring a house in 10-2 IMO would be a complete waste of money and also make terminating to each device much more difficult if not impossible. Devices are rated for certain amperage, either 15a or 20a for most common receptacles. Using 10 gauge wire would mean you may not have enough screw left on the side of the outlet to fit 10 gauge wire behind it. Solid connections, limit the number of devices on each circuit, pig tail each device, avoid sharing neutrals and ensure you have a solid ground system at your panel (25 ohms or less) and your electrical system will be fine.

Do yourself a favor and do not use rigid at 6" deep. When/if the pipe corrodes or gets damaged, you will have to run new conduit again to re-pull new wire. Use EMT above ground and transition to schedule 40 PVC underground and bury it at 18" deep.

I had Wilhelm install mine. If I remember right, it was 400$ +/-. I bought the kit from he'll bent steel and upgraded all shocks to Bilstein 5100's. Big improvement on the ride on my 2500

Good deal if a guy needs some good quality 22lr.

That wasn't smart Prdtr

Great Video as usual. Congrats on a great bull.

I had it going 3220, but it was showing a little sign of pressure and I was going to shoot in a PRS competition that had a MV max of 3200. I backed it down 3140 and the accuracy stayed. My gun shoots the eld-x accurate thru a bunch of different charge weights of 4831sc.

Talk about an expensive tag..... Their worth it most of the time.

I worked up a great load in my 270 wsm using the 145 eld-x.

Traeger here as well. Pellet grills might be the best thing invented in the the last little while concerning cooking. It is ALMOST impossible to burn something or get a flame up. I meal prep quite a bit and can throw on 10 chicken thighs and 10 drumsticks and not have to worry about the grill catching fire. I love it.

Nice looking trout, was the tiger trout of any size?

Victory VAP 300's with the 92 gr stainless outserts. Overall weight with a 100gr Wacem' broadhead is around 440 gr.

Depending on how much snow is left up there, it can be pretty challenging. I have done that hunt twice, one year was quick and easy, the other was polar opposite. Most roads had snow too deep to drive on and the birds were not calling. Water holes are always a good option. I prefer to wake up early or stay out after the sun goes down and shock gobble or just listen for birds. I will then concentrate on those areas in the morning and evenings.

Lance- how do you feel Bell and Carlson has slipped up on their QC? I am in need of a new stock here shortly, and I really prefer the BC stock over HS, but if their is serious quality issues, I may reconsider. I had to bed my last BC, but I plan on bedding most guns anyway.

Build a bridge....

Fantastic video, that really shows how much of an impact donating your tag can have. Thanks again

I think Flatlander has a crush on BC777. Seems to always want to try and push his buttons. Mancrush ?

I am jealous! Looks like an awesome trip. Puerto Lobos?

Straight.

Good call PRDTR, no one on here likes a badass glock. That sure was a big broad brush you just painted all of CWT.com with. I love the gun, just do not have the funds for it. Good luck with the sale, that thing is pretty sweet.
