    6.5 Sherman

    I decided to go with a semi-custom rifle and thought I'd go for something a little different while I was at it - I ended up going with a cartridge known as the 6.5 Sherman. It's similar to the 6.5 Gibbs, but has a longer neck and less case taper. Cases are made from 270 or 280 brass necked down...

    Which Sheep Species To Apply For?

    I'm a UT non-res now for at least the next 4-8 years (Going to med school out in VA). There's one nice thing to being a NR and that is being able to apply to multiple LE and OIL hunts - That being said, I've got Mt. Goat points building, but thought it'd be a good time to add Sheep as well. I...

    How To Choose A Gunsmith?

    Hopefully this isn't too stupid of a question...I'm definitely not a stranger to firearms, but this will be my first go around with a rifle build. I've already decided on caliber, barrel, contour, stock, etc., but I need help finding the right person to do the job. For those who have worked...

    SE Idaho Outfitters For Deer

    My 14 year old brother has recently taken an interest in hunting... we went on a bear hunt in WY this spring and he toughed it out for 5 days without seeing a bear. The only one he saw was the sow I took at different site my first evening... The outfitter was great and even offered to take my...

    First Bear Hunt

    Well I finally got around to posting about my first black bear hunt! This took place over Memorial Day Weekend. My brother is heading to Mexico on a mission for two years, so my brothers and stepdad and I thought it'd be fun to do an out of state hunt together. We ended up going to Star Valley...

    Cache, Richards Hollow (Millville Face) Cow Hunt

    I drew out on a late season cow elk hunt on the Cache, Richard Hollow (Millville Face) and I'm really excited to have a chance to take a cow elk. I've never done this hunt before and I've heard that a lot of success depends on the amount of snow that we get. Would anyone mind offering any tips...

    Antlerless Elk Help - Cache Richards Hollow

    I drew out a tag for the Cache, Richards Hollow unit. This basically takes place on the Millville face. I don't have much experience with this area, but I've heard that the hunt really depends on the amount of snow we get. Has anyone else had this tag? I'm not afraid to hike up to them, but are...

    30-06 or 300 wsm??

    I've been looking at my rifles lately and I've been thinking that a .30 cal needs to round out the collection. I've got a B-day coming up and have been thinking that a rifle would be a fun gift to myself. I think I'm torn between a 30-06 and 300 WSM. I should also mention that I'm only 160...

    Remington Sendero

    I was at Al's Sports in town the other day and noticed they had a Sendero in 7mm Rem Mag and I was drooling the whole time. It's a slick looking rifle for sure!... I'm curious to hear if anyone has experience with these rifles and how practical the Sendero works as a hunting rifle? The concern...

    Utah Muzzy Deer Advice

    This upcoming season will be my first muzzleloader hunt ever... I've always just hunted the general season rifle hunts which are usually later in the the month of October. Can anyone offer some advice about what it's like to hunt deer in late Sept/early Oct? I imagine that I would most likely...

    Varmint Rifle

    This past weekend, there was a shooting expo at the Cache Valley Shooting Range and I finally had the chance to shoot a 22-250... Long story short, I'm hooked! I took a rock chuck a couple of weeks ago at a friends property with a .222 and I'm thinking it would be a blast to get into the varmint...
