    There is a reason Vista was able to aquire CCI, Remington etc. just because you take CCI out from under the Vista Management doesn’t mean it continues to exist, or even remotely to the same current capacity. Vista been very smart on capitalizing on synergies and leverage profit in other areas...

    Why you need to Understand Vista Outdoors and What They Own

    They actually owned Savage for a long time. The CEO of Savage bought the company back from Vista I think in 2020. If you think they will stop at gun manufacturers… I don’t know what to tell you. They will go all the way to ammo and any supporting products. The example I gave about increasing...

    Why you need to Understand Vista Outdoors and What They Own

    Not real sure you want all those companies standing on their own as Liberals continue to open up litigation abilities against them. I for one am happy Vista is doing what they are doing. They are strengthening the individual companies. First thing they did with Remington ammo was hirer 60 more...

    Help with pack for moose Kifaru vs Eberlestock or Kuiu?

    If someone recommends elberstock over Kifaru, Stone Glacier, or EXO. They have never used a Kifaru, Stone glacier or exo to actually haul weight. It’s that simple. Elberstock are tough well built packs but frame system, shoulder straps and hip belt aren’t in the same league. EXO makes dry...

    Wanted - Mule deer hunt Texas - 2022

    It’s no longer available but both the services I gave earlier is who I would call. As far as leases unless the ranch is MLD it’s a two week pre rut season, which tends to help with age structure

    Wanted - Mule deer hunt Texas - 2022

    There are leases in Texas that produce 170-206” deer every year, for less then Alberta. I just got off one. Grant it Alberta isn’t as moisture dependent

    Non-resident license fees.

    Simple answer they use NR licenses to maximize the Pittman Robertson algorithm, it’s simply just getting enough NR to buy/apply with a cost threshold that is set to maximize application income, killing two birds one stone. Too high license cost then not enough NR apply to maximize both PR and...

    Bino Case opinions?

    I hunt fort stockton and like you can put 30-40 miles a day on a UTV pretty easy. I switch to enclosed marsupial and have been very pleased on how well it cuts dust. I have the AGC but its to bulky and i dont need the additional storage.

    Rifle for 10 year old.

    My 8 year old daughter uses 6.5 Creedmoor. Out side of hearing protection, next best investment is a tripod attachment system, reaper rest, deathgrip, hog saddle it. It beats a muzzle break in regards to recoil reduction.

    First time antelope hunt

    Texas or Cimmaron? Don't over look the OLAP land, but be respectful. I've been blessed to kill a few both rifle and bow over the years. I think I've only had to shoot over 250 yards once. Decoy will help in Rifle season but not archery. If you aren't hunting on large private swath don't get...
