    Working the bolt

    Yes. To all of these. But as @Mekaniks said, its all about practice. Both on the range and real experience in the field. Practicing on the range is great, but there is no replacement for the adrenaline rush and nerves that come with actual hunting experience. I saw a video recently of a guy on...

    tariff refunds are coming

    I added the Bold for clarity, this money isn't being returned to Us. How does everyone not realize that this is the largest corporate well fare scheme in the history of Humanity. They passed theses costs along to us when they paid them, now they're getting that money a 2nd time, paid with Tax...

    "Plus Peak" ammunition by Federal

    It was only a matter of time. It makes sense, modern metallurgy also means that actions now can probably handle pressures much higher than the actions they used to approve SAAMI specs for a lot of the older cartridges. (30-06 and 270 immediately come to mind) I would imagine the titanium actions...

    Sako 375 H&H

    I can't disagree with this more. I (and both my brothers) have major mixed dominance. I play Hockey, Golf and Lacrosse left handed, batted switch in Baseball and Softball, but write and throw right handed. I'm also very much a right handed shooter. One brother is almost completely lefty, but...

    Things to do in Anchorage end of June?

    Stay up all Night and Enjoy the Sunshine!! Haha Seriously though, Anchorage in the Summer is beautiful. I've never had a bad meal at Glacier Brewhouse: http://glacierbrewhouse.com The Crow's Nest, at the top of the Captain Cook Hotel, is pricey, but the views alone are worth it. The food and...

    AIRFARE ROBBERY

    Agreed. As are Turkish, Qatar, Etihad, maybe even Ethiopian. Flying those airlines may require slightly longer travel time and less optimal routing, but if the tickets are half the price, or less, begin flexible makes a lot of sense.

    AIRFARE ROBBERY

    That wouldn't make any sense. At all. Delta own there own refinery, which processes a WTI/Venezuelan Sour mix. WTI was trading 4 bucks a barrel cheaper than Brent at the end of the week and the gap has been much larger over the last couple months. Delta (and every other airline to some...

    Would you like a Cigar?

    Its Very Bad. The country doesn't have electricity. They don't have fuel to run tractors, trucks, etc. No bus service to get workers to/from the factories. They don't have fertilizer, they don't have the material to make boxes or the money to buy more. They don't have international flights to...

    Hello From Colorado

    Awesome! Have you figured out which Species yet? Do you know which lodge you'll be hunting from? Please post a hunt report when you get back, there are a couple on the forum already, but all from a few years back.

    Hey, Nice to meet you. I'm in the Tech Center, Around I-25 and 225. Are you talking about Golden Gun Club? No I don't have a membership there, I usually head up to Colorado Clays or down to Dragon Man's to shoot outside. I'm also pretty close Centennial Gun Club and the Firing Line, so I go to...

    Kudu hunting v Elk hunting - comparisons?

    I wont hunt my first Kudu for another 11 months, but I have hunted Elk every year for the last 10 and a handful of times before that. I will keep hunting Elk every year that I can get a tag. I do live in Colorado though, so the cost for me is the Tag (less than $100), my vacation time and the...

    Delta One is absurd

    I guess I'm in the minority, but I just dont see the need or value. Everything you guys mentioned in the last few posts can be handled yourself, often quite quickly and easily. I don't currently travel much for work, but I spent just over 10 years flying 30-40 Segments a year and I ran into...

    Delta One is absurd

    Flying on Tuesdays and Wednesdays is often the cheapest as well. Sometimes Thursday and Saturdays. Mondays and Fridays are often the most expensive because people flying for business of Fly Monday and/or Friday. Vacationers often Travel on Fridays and Sundays too. I don't understand how using...

    I'm loving the look of the Rhodesian Teak. You said brass for the guard, but that mock up appeared to be steel. Optical Illusion? Is it cheaper to make a couple mock ups from steel first?
