I use a Leupold 3-9x40, and it is always on 3x. I hunt in grizzly country, and you need to be able to acquire your target quickly, if I see a game animal and have time, I turn up to 9x, if I don;t have time, I shoot on 3x.

After watching the first 2 minutes ----- sorry you're not gonna survive ----- a bear IS NOT going to give you that much time to aim and fire. In the time you pulled you pistol out of the holster a bear 30 yards away would be on top of you before you took your first shot. You're underestimating just how quick they are.
@TheWaytoNativeChronicles2 күн бұрын
Heh. Actually, I'm not underestimating. In this video I'm just trying to pass a government-mandated test is all. 20 seconds to put 6 rounds on the target from 3 distances and 2 shooting positions. Thanks for your comment anyway.

Thank you for this! What size is your tent? Mine is a 10x12 and looks smaller from the outside but similar from the inside. I may look for a similar frame set up, but right now I am using a steel frame from a tarp shelter (Canadian tire tarp garage). The steel frame works great but it is heavy and bulky. For years, I used a frame made from saplings. Thanks again for posting this.

Well that was easy…. I have a 9x11.5 Snowtrekker basecamp, it’s surprisingly similar to your tent albeit smaller and uses an A frame to hold up the ridge pole, and my frame is all Easton made aluminum poles…. The sidewall supports tho are awesome for keeping the walls from flapping and bowing in after it’s been setup for a few days.

The hand holding the head steady so close to the saw made me wince. The saw tip hitting the dirt really made me wince! Silly question, maybe. Did you change the bar oil to veg oil prior to using it on the moose? I enjoy the cultural references in your filming. Thanks for the video.
@TheWaytoNativeChronicles3 күн бұрын
Yeah, I didn't like the tip touching the dirt either (actually, I think it only skimmed the surface), but I sharpen my own blades, so I can fix that. As for chain oil, the brains removed are for the purpose of smearing on moose hide for tanning, so not for human consumption; hence no need for avoiding a tiny bit of oil. Thanks for the comment and letting me know you enjoy these aspects of our videos!

How long did it take you to get your trapper license? And are you allowed to own any glocks for protection against wild life when checking your trap line
@TheWaytoNativeChronicles9 күн бұрын
Here in Alberta, getting a trapping license is a 3 or 4 day course. A Glock can be used if it's powerful enough to be deemed suitable for protection. That usually means a minimum of 10mm though. I don't think the CFO would approve a 9mm.

@@TheWaytoNativeChronicles It was at very close range, and not a glancing shot, but perpendicular to the skull, which makes her feat even more incredible. Ive seen pictures of the skull with the holes from some museum, but she shot those to put it out of any misery after the initial shot. Those holes looked like they were made at the base of the skull where it meets the spine. Maybe the first one was to the ear or eye socket. The woman had knowledge of bear anatomy that few possess.

Thanks for the video. I’ve got a Ruger no.1 tropical in 458 win mag. Mine ejects which helps. I also use my left hand to feed the bullets straight in from my fingers. So my rear hand stays in place and my left hand goes back and forth from the fore end. I think my way is quicker but it’s also a bit fiddly. I was listening to a great podcast called “the big game hunting podcast”. One of the episodes they had on an old South African PH. He said they had a guy once doing the PH coarse using a Ruger no.1. He was faster at shorting 4 shots than the guys using double rifles was! Apparently his wife had sowed on some horizontal loops on his breast pocket. From what I could make out the guy would shoot, then his shooting hand would grab one while the rifles was still shouldered and then slide the bullet straight in from the breast pocket area. Anyway, thanks again for the video. I enjoy your channel all the way from Australia.

Thank you for your kind words. I'm not sure what to say for a solution for you. It might be best to just start again from scratch from the sound of what you are describing. Perhaps first make a pair using just felt, until you get the pattern and sizes that give you a good result before making one using leather. That's what I often do for new project designs.
