1 hour 47 minutes

Please welcome Tyler Freel on the podcast for a Camp Chat. In this episode we talked with Tyler about mountain rifles, specifically breaking down how to build a mountain rifle with a limited budget. We also touch on the 6.5 Creedmoor and Tyler killing a grizzly bear with it. After that we close the podcast talking about his experience dall sheep hunting in Alaska, and future hunting plans for him and his son.

Tyler lives in Fairbanks, Alaska and has been DIY hunting sheep and other alaskan game for nearly 20 years. His knowledge and experience includes hunting Alaskan game (mountain sheep and goats, bears, moose, and caribou), trapping, recreational and competitive shooting, rifles, handguns, and traditional archery.
