    going smokeless

    The kicker is the scope. I've been playing with long range shooting for quite a few years and have never had a burris or vortex fail to track or fail in any way for that matter. I'm not sure what top end magnification I'm going to want 12× minimum. I'm really not planning on stretching this...

    going smokeless

    if you can find a stock 45-70 barrel it is a little cheaper. They Offer a brux barrel already set up with the breach in 26 and 28 inch lengths. it will handle hotter loads than a modified stock barrel. between the barrel, forearm fit, breach, sizing dies, bullets and powder you are going to be...

    going smokeless

    got the ball rolling this morning. going to convert one of my encores and maybe look for a bolt gun down the road to play with. thanks alot for the help. it's pricey but it should be worth it in the long run. luckily I have a scope sitting in my gun room that should be more than adequate for...

    going smokeless

    I think I'm just going to have my encore converted. That's my plan atleast. my gun shoots lights out now with blackhorn but smokless just seems so much more consistent and hassle free

    going smokeless

    thanks fellas. I was hoping there was someone close. I'll get ahold of him and see what he thinks the best route is and we will go from there.

    going smokeless

    it's been quite a while since I've been on here. The app completely quit working on my phone. I'm looking to have a smokless gun by next october. tons of options, from smokless barrels for my encore to complete custom builds. looking for some insight from someone who has already been down this...

    Elite bows

    I used to be the new bow every year guy. I've been shooting the same elite since the spring of 2011. best shooting bow I've ever owned. have gotten alot of friends to make the switch and have zero complaints from anyone. I shoot all the new ones every year and can't find anything that feels...

    Looks like a warm November Hunting Strategies

    look fellas, over the age of consent and all that stuff. if you could only be "active" maybe 3-4 times a year and that activity only happen in say roughly a months time period would you really care when, where or how. they are going to breed no matter what the moon, temperature, barometric...

    An IW first??

    I was very serious about trapping for a number of years and never caught one and I've only seen one in the state of iowa, around 10 years ago. Even running alot of cameras for the last 10 years I have zero pics of a gray fox. They are a neat little critter

    Iowa Landowner/Tenant Tags... SCAM?!?!?!?

    The fella in question was a member on here at one time. Maybe he can answer your questions. I'm sure as much as he posts and advertises if he was breaking the law it would have been caught onto by now.

    Flathead vs. Whitetail

    The 1st few weeks of may have produced the best for us over the years. Plus you can pull double duty and get in some turkey hunting and mushrooms in between running lines or Rod and reeling.

    Whitetail vs. Flathead

    Has to be 10× as many 40+ lb flatheads as 160" deer. Just my observation for the last 20+ years

    The Mount of Patches

    That's a once in a lifetime animal and a mind blowing mount. Who did the taxidermy work on that?

    Kisser buttons

    I don't use an actual kisser button but instead a small knot tied with d-loop material and served above and below. Same principle without the actual big round button

    Tactacam

    I have some great deer footage with a go pro set on the "narrow"setting. Along with some wings hooting with a headmount using the same settings. Go pro would be my second choice over the tactacam. The go pro does provide a great second angle in a treestand or mounted on your bow aimed back at...
