    Bear protection handguns?

    Hey, just because there are full power loads doesn't mean you need to use them. Even comparing a generic reduced recoil load in the 500 S&W to the hottest load for the 44 mag. Buffalo bore 440gr at 1325fps for a little over 1650 lb/ft in the 500 S&W Buffalo bore 340gr +p+ load that is 1425fps...

    Smallish 375 cal Muzzle Brake?

    American Precision Arms Gen 3 Fat Bast**d self-timer, they too will open it up for your caliber choice. They actually said they'd open one up for a 500 Jeff, I'm contemplating having my 458 lott turned into an 18" barreled 500 jeff.

    Grizzly called in at 50 yards.

    Provoking a feeding frenzy... Ahh yes, the ole, you should've known and therefore you are culpable of inciting the result and of course then must accept it, routine. Your daughter shows her cleavage... she incited the feeding frenzy that was the sexual assault, so no charges are brought, she...

    Interesting article on bear spray vs. bear handgun defense

    Been tearing their "studies" apart for years discussing this. Herrero and Smith are trash, need to be hung. Another person who realized that what he had taken as gospel (Smith and Herrero's BS), was, just not so, and he also tears apart another "studies" BS...

    E-Caller

    To be honest, I'm someone who'd be happy seeing electronic calls gone. So, I was trying to note something that is certainly different and beneficial, without sounding like a shill for a company, as I have no affiliation with MFK, and while also really trying to stay out of this. Your other...

    E-Caller

    If I were to go ecall I'd grab a FoxPro from MFK calls because they load their sounds on them for you. They record their sounds from live coyotes and such, and seem to do it right, I'd find that worth it. Though I'm still running hand calls and can't see that changing, was just getting the...

    Best pack for mountain hunting

    Yea, Kifaru has a new frame as well, but cannot for the life of me understand why you'd have a max 25" height on the frame...

    Interior Alaska black bear hunt

    So are you thinking like the 13 units, 16, 20, type area, they are all like 3 + bears each, should be good hunting. No closed seasons. I'd call around to places that have planes and ask them about flying you in somewhere, ask them how far they'll go, if they have sea planes or tire planes, or...

    Best carry sling for heavy hunting rifle

    I did a similar thing to you, for coyotes, but my gun was about 16lbs. Backpack with scabbard was the answer, I bought an Eberlestock lodrag, was great for my big rifle with big scope. Now I have a Seek Outside Goshawk and I anchored the smaller Eberlestock scabbard to it as my rifle is an...

    MT Elk Regulations Should Change!

    So if I'm reading this correctly, you're mad that you can't just shoot your elk from the road. Got it, say that and stop blaming everyone else for your real or perceived lack of success. You could also start a movement, raise a ton of money, and pay to have elk brought to other states and...

    a compact shotgun for coyotes?

    Pistol or a single shot TC Encore, can be broken down to be real short. Rock Island Ultra HC 10mm is 16 +1, you can buy it straight from Skips guns with his work done to it, smoothening up the action, complete trigger workover including the shoe of your choice so if you want longer, shorter...

    PA archery bulls and some rut shots..

    You seen what come out of MN lately, MR. Pencil Vania? "The brother-sister duo have dreamed about hunting elk in Minnesota for years. In 2023, they drew once-in-a-lifetime licenses and in recent days, each of them shot a bull. Przekwas' elk was nontypical with 10-by-11 antlers and Peterson's...

    Glock 20 and Brown Bear

    I've got a 458 lott load using the Hornady DGX bonded coming from them, they note 2600fps for over 7k ft/lbs. Normal 500gr 458 lott load, like my Federal 500gr trophy bonded bearclaws, are 2250-2300 fps. I also ordered their 500 S&W 400gr CEB solid load to try. I bought a chrono as well to...

    Glock 20 and Brown Bear

    Aria ballistics has a 10mm load with the cutting edge ballistics all coper solid, it's 190 gr and I'm not generally one to recommend lower weight when it comes to a defensive round for bone busting and such. However, modern materials and designs, the cutting edge solids have a very solid...
