LAST EDITED ON Jun-08-10 AT 02:02PM (MST)[p]LAST EDITED ON Jun-08-10 AT 01:55?PM (MST) I know what your saying but all they have to prove is that the predator was harassing or threatening livestock to be justified. I know you support the fish and game departments but your education and...

I agree that the majority of west side votes seem to overpower common sense in a lot cases when it comes to game management decisions but why whine about it? After all this is a democratic nation and as such the majority rules. Unfortunately that's not helping our game herds especially when it...

Cut BS some slack, at least he is getting to hear both sides of the situation. I'm not a wolf fan so to answer the original poster's question I'm pleading the 5th...

I think you guys have it all wrong. It's not just the NR's or the Res's that are getting screwed it's both. The ODFW is laughing all the way to the bank as they fill the parking lot of their new headquarters. I have never hunted outside of OR however after this unjustified increase I will be...

It's actually somewhat amazing to see how many people are getting worked up over this since OR is not known for the trophy status of anything. I have lived here all my life I can assure you that the residents are just as displeased with the ODFW rate increases. We are looking at declining deer...

Well I'm not sure but I think that it should at least be the same as the West side, Forked horn or better and in some eastern units it should even be 3 point or better. IMO

LAST EDITED ON Nov-12-09 AT 11:41PM (MST)[p]Here in OR things are bad, I got laid off after 11 years with a company, It seems I worked myself out of a job. Started low on the totem and prior to being let go I reported only to the CEO. Part of my job was to help others become more self...

Although the field photo does lead one to believe the buck is laying on private ground the fact is that whitetails have been roaming around the Blue Mt's for quite awhile. We saw a very nice 140 - 150 inch whitey this season on public land. Would have been nice if my buck tag had been for that unit.

Well... Sportsman's here in OR is terrible for keeping ammo on the shelf anymore! No .243, .270, .300 WM, or 10mm. I understand the 10mm being out but the other mainstream cartridges? I spoke with a worker there and they said they cut way back on orders during the buy out and since the election...

That's a great way to end a family camping trip. Congrats! Which part of OR were you "Camping" in?

returned your PM!

Both my .270 Win and .300 Win Mag Abolt Medallions shoot under and inch at 100 yards with factory loads. I would but another one in heartbeat!

I have a set on my Browning Abolt but I'm using them with Leupold Std. Bases though. This combo looks great and seems to holding up very well.

RE: Browning A-bolt, 30-06, looking to change bullets, looking for similar gun owners opinions Well, I'm not sure about the .30-06's but both of my A-bolt Medallions shoot the Federal Factory loads with Accubonds very well. .270 Win - 140gr .5"moa .300 Win Mag 180gr .725moa The .300 also...

I shot and lost a lead cow a couple years ago. I looked for blood for 30 minutes and saw none. Even though I recovered my arrow which had shown that penetrated only 8-10 inches acording to the blood and hair. Being inexperienced at tracking and knowing it I backed out went to camp and came back...

LAST EDITED ON Jul-30-08 AT 12:59PM (MST)[p]I'm not a rocket scientist or a brain surgen but it does not make since that if your going to post a video about bowhunters wounding game and loosing animals that you would show so many successful hunts? I mean to me I look at those pictures and with...

LAST EDITED ON Jun-04-08 AT 09:46AM (MST)[p]I think it comes down to personal priorities. One group of guys is concerned about whether or not they'll have a thophy to show off, good lighting for filming and ultimatley selling product. The other group is concerned about the quality of the table...

The application deadline was Monday 5/19. So if you haven't applied yet you probably won't be getting in the pool.

This last fall I took a large black bear (460lbs). I shot it at 70 yards. Upon shooting him he immediatley turned and charged my 10 year old son and I. There was a small draw between us filled with heavy cover. That bear covered 35 yards and disappeared into the brush coming right at us in the...

Dang his neck sure looks puffy, I would have thought it to be much later in Oct. Either way it's a nice buck! From the sounds of it I might want to check out the crewcab model for myself.

LAST EDITED ON May-12-08 AT 04:35PM (MST)[p]I have heard good things about the Mystery Ranch line too. They seem to be getting a lot of positive press lately. Although I've never had one on they certainly look like they would fit the bill if your wanting a double duty pack for hauling goods in...

I have gone through several different types. I have come to the conclusion that there is no PERFECT pack. I used a multi-pocket fanny pack for bow hunting along with a small camel bak when on extended hikes. I've also used medium sized back packs and what I find is that everytime I step up in...

LAST EDITED ON May-09-08 AT 03:47PM (MST)[p]LAST EDITED ON May-09-08 AT 03:46?PM (MST) BuzzH - With that reply, I can only assume that while you were out on one of those long hikes that you take that you slipped, fell and hit your head... HARD! You talk a great game but you have no clue how...

So what I'm hearing is that they do seem to work with most applications. In reading through the posts I didn't see where someone bought one and then took it off. So the only negitive is that some forum members think they are ugly? So What? If it works, buy it and use it. My rifle shoots very...

The problem isn't you and I that go over and hunt Eastern Oregon. For the most part I think hunters thoughts seem align with the thought of E. Oregonians. The main issue I'm hearing is all the laws and mandates coming out of Salem that are drawn up and designed for life west of the cascades. The...

I'll echo that! I bought a used set of Swaro pocket bino's that had seen some internal fogging issues. I sent them in saying that I understood that I would have to pay for repairs since I wasn't the original purchaser and they said NOPE. We'll take care of them and they turned them around in...

LAST EDITED ON Feb-11-08 AT 04:52PM (MST)[p]Well I finally got my skull back and had it offically measured. It ended up at 19-7/16 inches which means it shrunk 9/16" total. Still, It's big enough that it will be entered in the Oregon Record Book and I even won a gold medal at Pacific NW...

Here we are ready to go, Unfortunatley there were no antlers sticking out of the bed when we got back either.

Thanks guys, for the good info! I decided to pass on it and hold out for a Browning Micro Hunter. I have had only good luck with the Browning line.

I understand where your coming from. What I should have said was that a sub MOA isn't a requirement in a first rifle for my wife and son. Certainly as they shoot more and become more acustom to the recoil and such a more refined piece of equipment would be in order. I will try to talk him down a...

I'm not really looking for a tack driver as much as I am sommething that will produce consistent results. If my wife or son could shoot sub MOA groups then I would be a little more finicky. As it is I think anything that will produce 2" or less groups consitently at 100 yards is probably going...
