    Varmint hunters question

    They're easier to skin with two people.
  2. When you didn't think twice about being two miles from camp as the sun went down way before anyone knew what GPS stood for.

    I sure would like to know the PPM levels from a few hundred years ago. In the HVAC world ASHRAE gives us guidelines for Demand Ventilation levels in schools and businesses.

    A signed over tag....

    Congrats. 33 is a great unit but is getting a lot of pressure. I hope I can find a spot to camp when I go there in four weeks as there is a hunt going on right up to the day before mine starts.

    Lack of deer. The fire hasn't helped any.

    Any HAM (mainly 'h') hunters?

    Why 10" and not the distance you expect the shot to be?

    My first blue grouse!

    They are pretty much limited to the high Alpine Forests of 8'000 feet or higher.

    My first scouting trip......

    I would say a deer can easily get your scent at 250 yards. I know I can smell someone smoking a cigarette at 100 yards and deer have a much better sniffer than I do.

    Who uses external frame packs?

    That is all I have ever used for close to 30 years. The current one I have is a Kelty (I believe) with a BOYDS pack attached to it. I don't think i'd ever use any other type of pack. I like to have some air between my back and the pack to keep the sweating down. On occasion I will hang my rifle sling over a corner if I need both hands free so I used some wire ties and attached a piece of foam pipe insulation to one side to beep the rifle from contacting the frame. This is the third frame I have had, it is aluminum and the lightest of the three. The only problem is the cloth screen that stretches across the back to keep the frame from contacting you is wearing out and they seem impossible to find. The BOYDS is at least 10 years old and the zippers are getting hard to move but after looking at new packs for the last year I still have not found anything I like and forget about finding one the is made in the USA.
  16. Does Hodgdon list the pressure for that load?

    I would go 7Mag just it has a slight ballistic advantage over the 30 cal.

    Problem with rifle

    Sounds like excessive headspace. Have someone with Go-No Go gauges check it. You could also be setting the Shoulder too far back if you are resizing the cases, try backing off on the locking ring one full turn.
  20. Thanks for offer Amanda. We are having a family reunion in the south in a couple of weeks so I may take it with me and give it to my sister to take back with her. I can't believe it's almost November.
  21. So over the last month or so I bought a rifle here from a CWT member and a stock from another for a family member who lives in Monument and wanted to get into big game hunting. I added a newer scope I had taking up space, some new Burris rings and a Limbsaver pad. The rifle is almost 50 years old and is a real shooter and I'm pretty happy to have been able to do this for him. I'd rather get it to him this way then to look for a box to ship it to him and have it get lost or damaged. I'll also toss some money your way for your trouble and gas.
