  7. Re- read the OP question. He is asking why buy or build a custom rifle when you can spend 400 dollars and get a rifle that shoots really well. There was lots of post why people prefer to build a custom over a factory rifle.

    White Mtns. Fishing?

    Worst fishing I ever have up there is end of july and Aug. But a bad day of fishing is still better then being home
  9. Bruce I am in complete agreement with you. These guys don't believe in science and can't give you a valid argument or an explanation, All they are going to do is make silly comments and say your question isn't worth answering or their 6.5 super just improves with distance. lot of poppycock on here. Dan Looks like a couple guys gave some pretty good feedback to his question. As always, your sh!t comments bring no value to the conversation. Instead of picking fights maybe try contributing something useful. BUT he clicked liked on his own comment thought
  10. My point exactly. If I was building a race car that could run a 9 sec quarter mile, and do it "consistently" for 10 grand. why would I pay 100,000 grand to build a custom car that did a 9 sec quarter mile consistently. I get the Coach purse mentality.... but why???? have yet to hear a good reason... the work truck compared to the new ford work truck? nope. "because I want to...…" nope, does not change my mind at all. I have 4 different rifles (6.5 cm, 270 wsm, 300 wsm, and 300 win) that I have had for years that shoot 1/2 moa at 100-1000, and have for many years... not once but ever time I shoot them IF I DO MY JOB.. No, I don't want to bet you and no I don't want to go to competitions…. I am just saying, other than impressing someone who doesn't care what you paid.... why? And yet your camo is top of the line out of control expensive!! But there you are wearing them! Why??? I thought you weren't there to impress people how much money you spent when you can buy something for lot cheaper and do the job!!! ------hmmmm------oh wait maybe you like the design, the feel, the light weight, a hand down, a gift etc etc etc. Or maybe--------you just wanted it. Why do you say why??? People just like to have it because they can!! There is your answer its been said in all 5 pages so far! If you can't come to grips that they want it and you don't, there is no explaining this any further. Zeke, that is a heck of a lot of exclamation marks! Are you ok? NO!!! Im trying to figure out why you even asked the question because you clearly don't want to know that people have different taste then you. Sounds like you wanted to complain about a pet peeve you have and wanted to see how many people agree with you. Should of started off with, how many people see it my way? And left it at that

    Keto

    For the 98% of people it is calories. Those thyroid or hormone problems are not the norm. Lots of studies compared all the diet fabs together in a 3-6 month period and they all end up almost identical. The one thing they all had in common................yep.......calories deficit. Lots of people do just fine with keto and get used to it but all athletes say the same thing or have this in common is that once they get off keto they notice an increase in strength and recovery. So why lose full potential of strength, recovery, lose weight the same, give up on pizza, bread, pasta is crazy to me!! But in the end if you like it go for it.

    Youth rifle for my daughter

    I hope you find something! One more year until my daughter turns 10 I can't wait
  19. If your building a rifle and its your only way out if life slaps your around you shouldn't be buying or building a rifle. Just like you shouldnt buy a house that is 40% of your income, or you have cars that are worth 50% of your annual take home pay. It will catch up to you fast if life slaps you around. Custom's are a luxury item and should be treated as such. If you have the money and you don't care for a custom well do what you want

    Archery lessons?

    At least your hunting!!! Start shooting everyday. Once you get your sights set up practice practice! If your shooting and your shots end up being off don't touch your sights. Rest and shoot the next day and see what happens
  21. Ive only seen one blue grouse in my life
  22. For Most hunters a Tikka, Rem, Rugur, Savage it will do the job done deal! If you can't understand Lances descriptions then you will never understand why people put the money into it. If you understand but refuse to live like that life style nothing wrong with it. As what Lance has posted I preferred the 35ft 5th wheel over a tent every time. If you want to sleep on the ground or in a tent go ahead im not judging.
  23. Method of finding nice bucks in 24B. Pull out a 24B map. Point your finger east and central on the map. Hike to it. Glass, glass, glass you will find bucks
