This B U? if so U, be fucked!
In the survey, how many had jobs, was in their education level and did that translate into related employment. I have a feeling this was a tainted survey its NBC after all but working public is on a quick down slide. Anybody run a business, hire, train, manage employees? Early 2000s good...- 45.308

Hunting & Fishing Best tripod for out west hunting?
Silk user here. Not sure where out west you are hunting but spotter with tripod is key for hunting in Alaska as you can spend hours looking through your spotter. Weight Vs performance but in my book, a little extra weight for a spotter / tripod is worth it.- 45.308

So you want to climb Mt Everest.
Because its there! 30 years ago I thought about it and mountaineering in the Himalayans. I got into more technical alpine climbing. The 1990s is where the guided pay to play really started. Today anybody with $40-50k to burn can attempted it. The problem is, like most things, drop that many...- 45.308

Maggie’s Talkeetna......Pretty cool vid.......
The slopes to the south east of the hut perfect skiing, well of course in the right conditions but awesome runs. Its worth the nuggets to fly in and crush some turns for a day trip. We never fly out that hungry, taking a hibachi with some coals and meat. Bacon, burger, pancake, sausage, eggs...- 45.308

Hunting & Fishing Kimber mountain assent
For long action go with Tikka, short action Kimber but harder to find accuracy with the Kimber even with hand rolled. Tikka shoots more accurate out of the box even with off the shelf factory loads. In 17 years never had a Tikka come back for warranty. Cant say that about any other...- 45.308

Maggie’s Talkeetna......Pretty cool vid.......
Kelli was an outstanding pilot, more of the traditional AKn women. Lived across the street from us. It was probably her partner Ann, if I remember. A buddy and I use to fly up and have lunch at the Lat and fly back on our lunch time. Pizza delivery use to be one of things. We flew in a...- 45.308

Its not the same Talkeetna as it once was. Known as the hippy village now its been cultured. Lat 62 I prefer. Flown with TAT not her though. My neighbors both females were owners of McKinley Air "Two Babes and a Bird" so its not new. Cool video though.- 45.308

I have cleared, handed the firearm to a customer, got it back, cleared it, he says let me look one more time, I clear it and hand it to him and they ask why do keep checking the...- 45.308

Why so many 6.5 CM for sale???
Being in the business for approx. 17 years, seen many things and the 6.5 was one of them. Around 5-6 years ago customers started asking on a regular basis for 6.5cm with limited availability on the shelve. Around 3 years ago it was every day asking, most times the only asking for rifles.

Hunting & Fishing Do-all boots
Never heard of Vitkos but I looked them up and then seem soft for a long hard wearing boot at least to me. And the sole looks like it would not perform across varied terrain. But I could be wrong. I hope they are successful though being a veteran company but its hard times for retailers. If...- 45.308

Vortex Viper Spotting Scope
I have a Bushnell w/ mil ret for just under $500 and it works just fine for me out to 1100. I am not a fan of Bushnell warranty, I only used it once and they wanted me to pay for the shipping and sent back a different model scope than I sent in. When contacting Bushnell, that was their warranty...- 45.308

Fieldcraft Hiking boot recommendation
A WP liner sewn into the boot has become a must have to sell. About 15 years ago those companies who did not offer a WP barrier boot were losing sales to those who did so, they had to offer them to keep up in sales. Marketing and advertising is a strong medicine to sell product to the masses...- 45.308
