    What's the riskiest stunt you've ever pulled?

    Not even close to being dangerous compared to some, but a buddy and I took my canoe to Lake Superior intending to explore the Pictured Rocks area of the UP. We got there early Saturday morning and the waves looked like the ocean. The tourist/sightseeing boats were not going out. Of course we...

    Montana Rifle Company TSAVO in .375 H&H - Shooting!!!

    What knife are you carrying everyday right now?

    I also carry a Victorinox Tinker for years. Once in a while I forget to put it in my checked bag and have lost a couple to airlines. Once going into a Red Wings game at Joe Louis arena, I had to go back outside and bury it in a snowbank!!

    Athlon Rangecraft Chronograph - Due In April! $349.99

    That's a good price. I have one and I really like it. I tried it out before I took it to the rifle range. Checked it out swinging golf club past it. I only did it once, I'm too shaky and thought I would hit it!!!

    375 flanged magnum ammo needed

    As of right now he is looking for loaded ammo. He doesn't reload but I do and I have him saving his cases. If we get that far I will need dies. I have lots of bullets. Thanks

    375 flanged magnum ammo needed

    My friend who I hunted in Zimbabwe in 2019 is heading back soon. He has a 375 flanged magnum double and needs some ammo. Anybody know where he can get some? He has some but would prefer a couple more boxes, soft points, as he has enough solids.. Thanks

    Spring bears anyone?

    Huge black bears. I am trying to get a tag here in Michigan and will bait on my property if I get one. Probably won't get anything that size but it will be satisfying to get a decent size one!!

    Question on shipping ammo

    Pre printed labels is the way to go. As Newboomer stated, drop off is easiest. I drop off at a local independent shipper that UPS, Fedex and USPS picks up every day.

    Is 5-6 days hunting enough time?

    I agree with most here, 10 would be my minimum as it was on my one trip there. A long time to get there and a longer time to get back!!!
