Berghaus military backpack for hunting
I finally decided to move to a smaller backpack for 1-2 day hunts. A 30 liters one will be perfect. I looked at various similar models, from Savotta Jaakari M to tasmanian tiger mil ops 30 and finally i discovered the military side of Berghaus, which i didn't know. The heros 35, which seems to... -

Thanks man. Couldn't ask a more accurate answer -
Quad sticks vs tripod, prone-like accuracy from standing with a 1.5 lbs setup?
I have seen them, yes. It looks a bit overkill for my applications. But at this point i am considering quad sticks (plus a separate lighteright tripod for camera) since people on a uk forum claim prone-like stability from standing.. i still can't believe this honestly -
Quad sticks vs tripod, prone-like accuracy from standing with a 1.5 lbs setup?
Hi everyone, i was asking a couple informations about a vanguard tripod on a british hunting forum and basically everyone suggested me quad sticks (especially the ones from Blaser or Viper flex) over any kind of bipod, claiming that these quad sticks (which weight less than 2 lbs) can give... -
Hunting tripod for shooting with the possibility to swap the head for a camera rest?
I have also a bipod, wouldn't the arca system interfere with it? Also, i think that, since the rifle would be zhot from the tripod for max 200 yards shots, maybe a faster shooting head like a rest (without the necessity to do anything other than restino the rifle over it) could be a more... -
Hunting tripod for shooting with the possibility to swap the head for a camera rest?
Probably i didn't explain myself well.. i want a tripod i can swap heads of, going from a hunting-shooting head (which i would keep as the main one) to a camera mounting head -
Hunting tripod for shooting with the possibility to swap the head for a camera rest?
The ascent looks like a good choice, it's also pretty lightweight but there are no saddle heads, only clamps with their (proprietary?) system. Maybe i can use a head of a different brand? -
Hunting tripod for shooting with the possibility to swap the head for a camera rest?
Hi everyone, i always kept 2 different tripods: one for shooting (bog havoc, which is very simple but worked well for me) and one for camera selfshots (a very light and small amazon one, it folds in and i keep it in the backpack). Now i decided to buy a single tripod with the possibility to use... -
New rifle recommendations
Yeah, someone says it takes a lot of rounds to really break in a barrel but actually i didn't mean that for me the only mechanical break in takes 200 rounds. After 100-200 rounds you usually get a little more velocity and you have the greater accuracy the rifle can deliver but, in this case... -
So, how light can a Kimber Hunter be? A build thread.
How light can it be? Definitely too light -
New rifle recommendations
I think barrel life is something to consider. If you have a 1000 rnds barrel life when the barrel is broke in you are already at 20% of its optimal life. If you practice a bit at the range with your hunting rifle or if you do some load developement, zero check after hunts and after your rifle... -
the best 243 win bullet
It depends on what younare looking for. Thougher bullet gives you more margin with quartering shots, when you have to pierce a shoulder blade. You will have runners with traditional shots (usually not more than 50 yards with a good shot) but there should be a decent blood trail to follow. With...- ssimo
