    My Shorty-ish, Long Range-ish, Lightweight-ish Hunting Rifle

    I think I want one of those for the same reason. Care to share some build specs?

    Hybrid Hunting/Target Rifle - Best Barrel Contour?

    I’d vote sendero contour. Better eat your Wheaties to carry a long m24 contour all day or night several miles.

    Does anybody else use a rifle as a tool?

    Umm? Kind of the whole point of having a rifle, no? What if you have a $5000 heavy rifle built hell for stout to handle a rough living.

    recommendations on a truck med kit

    I’ve bought a few to keep in vehicles and home. Nothing expensive. Provides piece of mind mostly. Everything jam packed tight in a little case so you have to dig through all the shit to find what you want. Outside comes plastic wrapped. Boxes and shit inside also sealed. Then you have to unwrap...

    I kind of feel like a peasant - Fuck it, I bought another KAC

    So, long legged KAC broad was no go so you went home with some short squatty pistol AR thing. Sounds like the gun version of a Willie Nelson song. “Jeep gun”! Jeeps and guns together definitely not for the faint of heart in regards to the wallet. So I can empathize. As for the peasant life...

    Anyone shoot 22 WMR?

    Like Shakespearean poetry to my ears. Couldn’t have said it better myself.

    ? for the Toyota Tacoma owners

    I don’t own a tacoma but some hunting buddies use them. Since kids grow I would recommend the 4 door for daily life. The 4 door long beds are just as long as a full size truck with less room since they are more narrow. Bigger turn radius also and just a v6. Seems like just a little to much...

    Another Accuser Comes Forward Against Kavenaugh

    Fuck Dave Ramsey and his shit. Army Jerry is the real financial genius.

    Have any Hider’s met Army Jerry in person?

    Once I was eating my breakfast taco while perusing the local outfitters store. I thought I saw the image of Jesus on my tortilla but realized it was the spirit of AJ, reminding me to buy more ammo.

    New Arms Race, Hypersonic Weapons

    Makes me wonder if the Weatherby family is invested or making in roads to capitalize on this new segment. Seems like a logical next step. ?

    Rifle Scopes Advice on very durable Optic.

    I’ll give OP 1 style point for knowing how to jump right in and stir up the old shit pot. With teal season on the horizon waders should be in stock and I must recommend them before wading into the morass of this thread. Put some egg crate foam around a Tasco, makes it just as tough as other...

    Hunting & Fishing Helicopter Hog Hunts? Whose the best guide service?

    Might be hard finding territory where hogs and prairie dogs overlap. I’d like to do it once but every outfit I looked up charges a grand or more. Hard to justify that when one can hunt them from the ground for free.

    What's your favorite mass produced rifle?

    This place never disappoints! Gotta love it. Regarding the original course, the Ruger Hawkeye Predator I once owned felt like an extension of my hands. 2nd would be Weatherby Accumark for fit and balance. Always had a soft spot for Remington Sendero as well. Maybe I’m just behind the times.

    Gunwerks

    Why drink Crown when Old Crow will do the same thing for you. Different strokes... I kind of picture Gunwerks as the Weatherby business model with some different bells and whistles. They’ve been involved in some neat things supporting the industry it seems with the Revic scope and BR2500...

    Hunting & Fishing Nilgai in Texas

    That Ruger Hawkeye African in 9.3x62 seems like a good classic one for safari style hunting on foot for tough game. I’ve wondered how a 444 marlin would fare, maybe with heavy cast. I’ve never hunted nilgai but an old friend had stories from when he did as a kid when his dad was a crop duster...

    What's your favorite 22WMR bolt gun and why?

    Rabbit cartridge par excellence. Marauding raccoons and such, covered. Headshots on bigger stuff to 100 yards, check. CCI hollow points are pretty wicked medicine for a rimfire. I’ll take one hands down any day over 22 long rifle. But my only experience is with Marlin bolt actions. Like the XT...

    Hunting & Fishing 280ai or 284 win long range hunting rig

    Yes that’s an option but may yield a decrease in accuracy and thus effective range. Maybe not enough to worry. Hard to know until you try. For those trips, that’s why you keep ammo stashed every where in vehicles, gun cases, travel bags etc so you’ll always have some somewhere.

    Hunting & Fishing Ethical Hunting Range

    OP summed it up well. Effective/ethical range limit is dynamic and unique to the situation and person. That’s the biggest thing for people to gain the wisdom to realize in the real world. Atmospheric conditions. Available light. Terrain. Shot placement and terminal ballistics depending on size...

    Hunting & Fishing 280ai or 284 win long range hunting rig

    I think your on the right track. Especially if it’s a switchlug type rifle. More variety. Check out copper creeks 280ai and 6.5-284 loads. Not that they couldn’t do others for you just to try out a variety. Hornady precision hunter ammo also has 280 rem, and I think they’re adding 280ai. Nosler...

    IHOBidiocy

    After all the overly long waits, shitty service, bad food, and having to crap my way through the remainder of the day; I basically avoid any place that serves breakfast.
