    experience with Leupold firedot

    Just a quick count off the top of my head, I believe I have seven of them mounted on various rifles in both red and green. For what it’s worth, I had the scope on dangerous game rifle chambered in 416 Rigby modified with a circle reticle and green firedot. The Leupold custom shop tech said it...

    I'll trade you one used but well cared for left nut straight across for that vehicle. PM me if interested. :D

    DCS guide jacket or Peleton 240?

    The windproofness of the 240 has been discussed a few times. Here is my response/opinion which hasn't changed. (http://www.rokslide.com/forums/clothing/39559-lowest-temp-kuiu-system.html#post434561) "I will confirm as well that the Peloton 240 is more windproof than the DCS guide jacket. For...

    KUIU Super Down Ultra

    If you block the wind (if necessary), you will be surprised how warm that little lightweight sucker will be. If it's cold, I don't leave camp without it. It's too light and compressible not to bring along.

    Tires

    Man, I second that x 100. Having delt with retreads myself on farm equipment (always dual wheel), I wouldnt dare run them as a single tire on anything I care about. Especially while pulling a trailer. Ever wonder where all of those "road alligators" come from littered along the side of the...

    Great read about accuracy

    Glad that resurfaced. Don Geraci is my gunsmith and friend. Il have to ask him about this next time I see him. Great guy.

    Tent options

    I am the same height and weight and also have the copper spur UL2. I think it's a great tent. Easy to set up, yet stronger than their very slightly lighter and less roomy fly creek model. If you're looking for a balls to the wall four season tent, then look at the Hilleberg tents...

    Ship gear or fly with it?

    That's just weird. Never had this happen on dozens of flights with weapons.

    Is it just me?

    So I'm going to take a different spin on this one… First off, having 2 young daughters myself, I found the video inspiring overall. Any father who watches the video can certainly appreciate a father's pride in raising a daughter like her. With regards to the scenes where they are glassing...

    Tires

    I agree with the above. I switched over to Toyo Open Country MT from BFG Goodrich mud terrains which I ran for years. I only made the switch because they didn't offer the size I wanted (285/75R18... tall and skinny, just like my women :cool:). It has been 25,000 miles so far and I think the...

    Non big four or five name brand hunting pants?

    Prana Zion for $75 on the web. Have Kuhl Renegades as well and prefer the Prana Zion pants for the quieter material and better fit. Both dry super fast. You can definitely wear them for more than just hunting too. I know I do.

    Lowest Temp for this Kuiu system

    I will confirm as well that the Peloton 240 is more windproof than the DCS guide jacket. For those of you that own both, place your mouth tight against the material and try blowing through it with your hand on the backside. You will see that the Peloton 240 blocks 99% of the air, whereas The...

    Another which puff thread

    Mine has been sitting in a wish list for over a year. It finally went on sale and I got it in last week. My only regret is that I didn't get it last year! I've only worn it twice, but it is super warm. I'm really happy with my purchase. Looking forward to wearing it again soon on a hunt later...
