    Firearms Thunderbeast TBAC .338 Ultra

    TBAC .338 Ultra with Area419 adapter. $1,650 shipped/insured. I’ve had this several years and put less than 50 combined rounds of .223 and 6.5 Grendel through it. I do not like recoil and don’t have access to long-range shooting locally, so have no plans for a large caliber rifle. Might...

    Hunting & Fishing First Western Elk Hunt…Essential Gear/Clothing Advice Needed

    With the idea that my son and I will be hunting and packing gear together for the foreseeable future, I have two 2 similar but separate questions: What should I purchase as 2-man gear? For example larger MSR/JetBoil vs individual, tent, etc… How might you prioritize purchases and share gear...

    Hunting & Fishing First Western Elk Hunt…Essential Gear/Clothing Advice Needed

    Buddy always packs a solid med kit and 2 tourniquets. He’s a mechanical engineer, former Army, shot in action in Afghanistan. Thanks a ton for the recommendations and advice. I’m building a spreadsheet to compare to his, and others on Rokslide etc. If you have any specific recommendations...

    Thanks. I’ll start researching warmer sleeping bags. I have an InReach Messenger and Sawyer water filter setup.

    Hunting & Fishing First Western Elk Hunt…Essential Gear/Clothing Advice Needed

    Thanks. I’m assuming he is aware of the regulations of camping/hunting there, but will confirm. Yeah Grizz is a concern in my mind! What’s the best option for a non-hunter? Bear spray? Glock17? Suppressed 6.5 Grendel SBR?

    Hunting & Fishing First Western Elk Hunt…Essential Gear/Clothing Advice Needed

    He has hunted solo in these 2 units for several years, has camp stove, jet stove/cooker, game bags, kill kit, spotting scope, tripods, etc. I think my 2 sleeping bags are 40deg. What do we need? He’s hoping for snow!

    Units 86 & 87. Buddy has an 8-man tent for base camp. Will camp beside the truck. Smaller tents if we need to sleep farther away. He has lightweight solar panels, small refrigerator, heater, even Starlink. will need to lock up that gear daily.

    Hunting & Fishing First Western Elk Hunt…Essential Gear/Clothing Advice Needed

    We spent last week hiking and fishing 9k-11k ft near Chama, NM. I haven’t been in the gym in a few months and that was all the motivation I needed to tighten up my diet and get back to it. Plan on rucking with our packs when they come in. Son plays HS football and is in decent shape too.

    Hunting & Fishing First Western Elk Hunt…Essential Gear/Clothing Advice Needed

    I’m a Louisiana native, and have wanted to hunt out West for decades. My son (14) is now physically capable enough and highly motivated, so we are tagging along with an experienced friend to Wyoming the week before Thanksgiving, as he tries to fill 2 cow tags. I started purchasing youth...

    Gulf Storm Ida

    4 big trees down (1 a 100 year old live oak), 1 busted window. It sounded rough last night, but we’re good, just a mess.

    Just lost power. Several trees down. Only 1 left in range of the house and it’s still upright. The real winds are just getting here now.

    She’s turning hard right. Track still shows north and west, but the radar shows moving East.

    Gulf Storm Ida

    Yeah @THEIS looks like it’s turning right towards us. Stay safe brother. Holler if you need something. Northshore was a freaking wreck after Katrina. Lost 150+ mature oak trees in my yard alone. Being such a rural area, our damage and disruption comes primarily from down trees. We got the...

    Moving to WVa?

    I lived in Fayetteville for a while. It’s right on the New River Gorge. Beautiful area. White water rafting, trout fishing, hiking, state parks, hunting, etc. It was a bit hipster though, man buns, craft beer, pizza, coffee; lots of Subarus lol. Wyoming county is the most remote place I’ve...

    Help on pure precision 6.5 Grendel

    Larue Stealth 2.0 Upper/Rail + JP BCG + JP SCS is a solid, smooth shooting setup. @bigjake83 built an upper for me using those. It hammers at distance, and is more than robust. I’ve had the Seekins, which is also nice, but prefer the LaRue.
