I went to the bars instead.

I'm tired of this Matthew Shepard crap. He was a druggie who was killed over a bad deal.... until the sensationalist media got a hold of the story at least. After all,...

Ahhh now I get it. They're ferruginous hawks.

What's a squab? Never heard that term before.



Like Joey said, I don't think it's that noticeable unless maybe you're trying to cut one hole with multiple shots. I prefer the look and feel of...

Wood stocks shrink and swell with changes in humidity, which can have an impact on accuracy. Synthetic stocks don't. Synthetic stocks will take a lot of abuse without showing it. Wood laminate stocks...

I thought that comment might excite a few people here. I like skiing, but for me it's not quite as fun as archery hunting for elk. The sound of a bull screaming 20 feet from you will make the hair on...

Pay no attention to whoever said the 7mm Rem Mag isn't a versatile cartridge- they have no idea what they're talking about. The 7mm Rem Mag will handle 100-175gr bullets, which makes it perfectly...

McMillan TAC-338 would be a nice 338 Lapua too. If you reload, I'd take a look at the 338 Edge. Slight performance gains over the 338 Lapua (maybe 100fps, so negligible really) but cheaper brass....

I was actually referring to cougars- lion is just short for mountain lion. I think Rhodesian Ridgebacks are similar to redbones, blue ticks, and black and tans though. Just a little bigger and...

No one has mentioned lion hounds yet. Mountain lion hunting dogs will run a cat all day, and those things cover a lot of ground. Blue ticks, Redbones and Black and tans are probably the most commonly...

Don't think you want to eat badger- just being within 50 feet of one will make you gag they smell so bad.

Rock River Arms Coyote? Good looking gun- I just about bought one the other day. Ignore the comment about using iron sights- you're not going to realize the capabilities of a 3/4 MOA rifle without...

I'm sure you can find some methaners in Pinedale who'll help you piss them off.

I'd get the 243 or 308. The 243 is nothing more than the 308 necked down to fit a 6mm bullet. Both burn less powder than the 270 and consequently have less recoil and muzzle blast. If you're wanting...

The ones that get educated are the ones that get shot at but not hit. So if someone shoots a wolf out of a pack and the rest of the pack members run off, they're now more educated. Just like coyotes....

If you're going with the M&P it's too bad you didn't decide a little sooner. M&P's purchased on or before April 30th qualified for a $50 cash rebate and two free mags (worth $82).

Why is it that people have a hard time accepting Wyoming's management plan? Because wolves resemble their family pets too closely? Many wolf experts have reviewed the plan and said there is no reason...

What make is your 45LC? If it's a Ruger Blackhawk, Redhawk, pre-2005 Vaquero, or Bisley I'd suggest shooting the heavy +P loads instead of buying a new gun. Buffalo Bore and Corbon both have...

The Giggling Grizzly has cheap drinks at the end of the night.

My vote goes to the Titan. I've driven them quite a bit, and the things have great power, roomy cabs, and a smooth ride. The older style of Tundra just doesn't have enough room or power (especially...

Everyone who keeps insinuating that this will turn into a massacre is an idiot. For the number of hunters out looking for wolves in the predator area, 13 kills is a really low number, and the kill...

Only 13?

There are elk in all of the mountain ranges. It's just a matter of going and finding them. Keep in mind that if you go in the western part of WY you'll have to deal with grizz and wolves. I'd stay...

Someone stole my Ruger M77 MKII Sporter 7mm Rem Mag with a Burris Fullfield II. You're right- it sucks.

I built this last July. I still need to cut plugs for the holes in the posts.

This is the only gun picture I have on my computer right now.

Howa 1500 .243 with a Nikon Monarch 5.5-16X44.

I never said what it was that I shot, but if you really must know I was shooting prairie dogs using frangible varmint bullets. FYI that means regardless of where you hit the prairie dogs the bullet...

I've hit stuff running at 200+ yards as well, on more than one occasion, but I shoot over 1000 rounds a year so it's to be expected. That's doesn't mean one should attempt to do it on a deer and risk...

You've got me scratching my head on this one. How is that someone who claims to like animals is saying that it is "cool" to attempt to shoot a deer on the run at 200 yards? There is a very high...

So according to your reasoning, I'm trophy hunting every time I shoot prairie dogs, coyotes, foxes, skunks and raccoons? That's a a new one to me. All along I thought I was controlling the prairie...

It appears I've touched a nerve.



Not outside of the trophy zone. There are only an estimated 30-35 wolves outside of the zone. The G&F has yet to determine how to run hunts within the zone and...

This will probably offend some of you, but I really don't care. I'm an avid hunter (I've lived off of wild game my entire life), and I'm stoked to be able to hunt wolves here in Wyoming. They are...

If people haven't noticed the trend yet it's because they don't want to. The only thing that will open their eyes is if they are ever in a shooting themselves and feel what it's like to be unarmed...

You have my condolences. I know a kid who was killed in Iraq this past spring (though not nearly as well as you knew Nate), and it really hits home. His sacrifice will not soon be forgotten.

What pisses me off is that some jerk-off like Heath Ledger or Anna Nicole Smith dies and they get more media coverage than the fallen soldiers in Iraq who actually die for a cause. What's even worse...

Diesel engines run at high pressures with high air to fuel ratios, so they don't burn as much fuel as gasoline engines.

The Nissan Titans get 18-20 mpg on the highway, and they have over 300 HP....

Last one.

Here you go Beaver. I saved the pics on my HD so that I could send them to a friend. It's not every day you see a Christmas fisting.

Rawlins is the asshole of Wyoming. If it weren't for the prison, there probably wouldn't much there. I know a few people from Rawlins, and they hate having to go back for break. And they really hate...

I never even consider responding to second chance offers. That's how most people get ripped off on Ebay.

Currency trading.

yep, i've seen several of those in "you know you're from Wyoming when.... " emails.

Yes, they are a joke- they're free. But they'll keep a little kid from putting a round in the chamber. Which is exactly what they were designed to do.

One way you could keep you shotgun ready for use but inoperable for children is to use one of those free cable locks that gun companies and the government give away. Load your magazine then slide the...

I don't need to join a frat to make friends.

you get what you pay for;) unless you by used, that is. and at close ranges your pattern is extremely tight- the shot doesn't start spreading out until it gets out there a little ways. might as well...

You're right, 00 buckshot wouldn't be a good choice with kids in the house. My bad, not a good recommendation, didn't realize you had kids. 2 3/4" game loads with 6 shot might be a better choice....
