I just wanted to let you Idaho guys know I posted a Knight Disc Extreme for sale here in the classifieds. I'd rather sell it locally so the powder can go to whoever buys it. I have a few additional pounds of 777 also that could be part of the deal. It's in excellent condition.

50. cal Knight Disc Extreme with Williams sight and both the Idaho legal western ignition and 209 ignition setups. Face to Face transactions will include some 777 powder and I have some additional 777 that can be negotiated into the deal. Everything shown in picture is included. If you want...

I'm looking at purchasing a Knight Muzzleloader that has a Williams FP rear sight and globe front sight on it. My eyes are not anywhere close to what they used to be. I can shoot my bow with peep sight and fiber optic pins just fine and was hoping I wouldn't have any issues with the...

I was going to ask Utah Division of Wildlife if there was anything I could do to donate my points to a program that would take a veteran hunting. I could not find a way to email them. Does anyone know what my options are with these points if any? Feel free to contact me privately if...

I'm looking for a factory rifle in 25-06. I've been looking at the X-Bolts and Vanguards with 24" barrels. I'm looking for 24" barrels so that leaves out the Savage rifles with their 22" barrels. Tikka has the same issue with short barrels. Remington is also an option but I'd rather buy a...

Does anyone know about the Hunters Ed class that is supposed to be held in April? I'll hopefully be attending to get that Hunters Ed point.

Does anyone have a Kilo 2000 rangefinder? It looks like there is a bit more range on the 2200 but I'm wondering what else it offers for 200.00 more? I'm wondering how well the angle compensation works and what is the minimum distance reading when it's in this mode? I'm hoping it ranges close...

I drew an Archery Pronghorn tag for this unit. I've seen plenty of Pronghorn along Hwy 20 in Fairfield and both west and east of there. For those of you who have hunted it, do these Pronghorn come of the private property? I've seen most of them right along the Hwy but very few on my trips...

I have a Rem 700 and a Leupold CDS scope that needs to be looked at. Luepold recommends I shim the rear base to get the elevation adj to work for the scope. Some have said not to shim and try new bases or mounts. I was hoping a good gunsmith could look at the rifle/scope and make a...

I finally drew my first Elk tag here after 10 years of applying. I drew the Unit 44 Elk tag for Sept 25-Oct 10. Has anyone hunted this unit before? I was wondering if anyone has been in the unit since it burned and how badly it was burned? What quality bulls will I likely be hunting? After...

HELP!!! Federals Speeds versus handloads 300 Win Mag I've been trying to find some RL22 or H4831sc for almost two years now. I can't seem to get any unless I want to pay the hazmat and shipping fees which makes it too expensive for working up a round. I have 180 gr Federal trophy copper to...

I have a new Rem 700 300 Win Mag and it has a Leupold VX3 CDS scope on it. I need to get the barrel broken in and get the muzzle velocity for it so I can send the info to Leupold to make the custom turret for it. Is this time of year a bad time to get it sighted in and muzzle readings or would...

LAST EDITED ON Jun-11-10 AT 11:10AM (MST)[p]Last night around 9:30 PM we just about drilled the biggest Bull I've seen in the short time I've lived here in Idaho. I swerved at the last second and somehow was able to miss him. I must have missed him by inches. It should have been a head on. All...

I have a new Rem 700 300 Win Mag and I'm not sure where to start with Factory ammo. I don't handload right now. Maybe in the future I don't know. I have always shot Federals but I was looking at some other loads. Federal loads the Accubond to 2900 FPS. Doubletap loads it to 3050. I was also...

What are you guys loading the 300 Win Mag with 180 grain Accubonds up to? I see the Federal factory loadings are 2960 FPS with the 180 grain Accubond. I was looking at Double Taps website and they load it to 3050 FPS. Is this a really hot load or is there still some room to go? I'm just...

I'm looking at the Zeiss Conquest 4.5x14x44 1" tube with the rapid Z 800 reticle and the Leupold VX3 4.5x14x40 Long Range 30 MM or 1" tube with a custom drop reticle. I looked at the Zeiss site and saw some info on how to set up range with the Rapid Z. Price vise the Zeiss is about a hundred...

I'm looking for a relatively inexpensive pair of ear muffs/ hearing protectors for the range. Is there such a thing? I've seen some for over $200.00 on up and some for under $50.00. What do you use?

I'm getting ready for some factory loads for my 300. I've always shot Federals for everything but I noticed everyone loads their 180 grain to around 2960 FPS including Federal. I see Double Tap offers the Accubond 180 grain in a loading that achieves 3050 FPS. I don't see a TTSX on their...

LAST EDITED ON Sep-29-09 AT 03:26PM (MST)[p]I was looking at some VX3's the other day. I was looking at the 4.5x14x40 and the guy behind the counter said " you would be better off jumping up to the long range model with the 30mm tube for only $60.00". He said it would be much better than the...

I'm in the market for a Gun. After reading tons of posts here I still can't decide. I'm looking for a caliber big enough for Elk and Shots out to 500 yards or so. Right now I have an older 30-06 but I want a 300 magnum of some kind. I've seen the ballistic charts and the 300 win mag, 300...

I'm not sure if any of you have seen this site. It's a great place to see what we are up against and how these people think. There are several people who are anti wolf who post there and it's fun until they run you off. Check it out. Give em hell. http://wolves.wordpress.com/

What's the difference in the glass on the Swarovski SLC's and their El binoculars. I thinking about getting a new pair of Bino's and was just wondering if anyone here knew the answer. Are the El's worth 500 dollars more?

Digital Camcorder for hunting I'm in the market for a digital camcorder for hunting and for shooting some wildlife movies and to have for just messing around. I thought it might be neat to shoot some elk footage while we hunt Elk. What do you guys use? I was looking at the Sony Mini dvd...

I was wondering if anyone could help me out here. I was just wondering how much recoil do you guys get from your Muzzleloaders. it seems like it would be pretty substantial because of the bullet weight and powder charge. What would you compare it to as far as a centerfire rifle goes.

This upcoming election is without a doubt the most important event that will happen for the rest of our lives. If the Democrats were to somehow wrestle the White House back here are some things that may very well happen. 1)Kerry has all but admited he will not pursue the Terrorists unless they...

After reading about posts on problems with the new Outback HP cam hitting the limb I checked my LX and it has the same problem. If you look at the cam it is leaning left into the Limb. There is a wear mark where the lower part of the cam has been hitting the limb. It seems either the cam is off...
