    Trad hunting story

    I won't bore you with the details, but my panda hunt outside of Wuhan in early 2020 was my best traditional hunt yet.

    AR15 Upgrade priority for precision

    Fun question. Before answering, I need to know more: 1. What level of precision are you after? 2. How well is the gun performing as-is? 3. Is it factory new, used with unknown history, or something you assembled at home?

    Sold Ruger Red Label 28 gauge

    Good price on likely the last US-made double barrel scattergun. A friend worked on this design. I wish I were rich so I could surprise him with this. Good luck on sale!

    Ultralight Ultralight Rifles

    I tried to resist the urge, but the temptation to install the IMI Defense folding stock was too much, so I folded. While the folder adds weight compared to other stock options, the reduced size sure is nice. It's well built, too. As this sits with optic and magazine, total weight is just below...

    Which mini spotter would you pick?

    If you're dead set on a mini spotter, the best I've found is Nikon's ED50. However, it's critical to use the fixed 27X wide angle eyepiece. Together, this is a magical setup that weighs right at a pound. I've had mine since 2009, and to this day, it's the only spotter I use, and I've had high...

    Aoudad Ft Davis

    Congrats on a wild hunt. That video is nuts! Aoudad are tough sumbitches.

    Sold SWFA 6x MOA

    Buying used 6X SWFAs on here is like trying to snag an Idaho elk tag. Competition is fierce, and timing is everything.

    I'll take this, OP. PM coming.

    Ultralight Ultralight Rifles

    Never done one, Robtattoo, but a 6.8 SPC straight-pull should work out. Assuming case diameter correlates to ease of extraction, it could offer advantages over Grendel-based rounds. With a 12.5-inch 6.8 barrel and can, it would be a fantastic general purpose ultralight AR.

    WTS/WTT Schmidt & Bender 4-16x50mm Precision Hunter

    I'm surprised to have no takers on a S&B. This scope is amazing.

    For more information on this dainty beauty, I posted a for sale ad with pictures.

    WTS/WTT Maybe I'm a foola, but it's time to sell my NULA in 6mm ARC

    For sale is my dream 6mm ARC NULA Model 20 Short, one of the last built by Melvin Forbes before he sold to Bill Wilson. I took ownership in mid 2022. This has a 20-inch barrel and the traditional NULA paint scheme. I'd guess that it has 70 rounds through it. Shoots great and weighs little. The...

    Dream rifle (NULA in 6mm ARC) needs an optic

    This is the Model 20 Short, so it's the the .223-length action.

    Dream rifle (NULA in 6mm ARC) needs an optic

    I kept the Trijicon and added Talley bases and rings to the NULA 6mm ARC. Speaking of this dream rifle, PM me if anyone is interested in buying it. I recently got my FFL/SOT and have been going crazy with suppressors. I mention that because I can't bring myself to chop and thread the barrel...

    Which youth rifle?

    The problem with the Encore route is threefold. 1. Receivers are discontinued and pricey. 2. Custom barrels cost as much as complete rifles. 3. You can't upgrade the design. It was and is a clever firearm, but unless you’re already an owner, buying a TC single-shot now makes little sense.

    Pinning and welding…a bolt action?

    I just got my SOT, so I may do this with a .308. A 12.5 would be fun, and an SBR ain't gonna cost me anything.

    Argentina dove hunting

    I've been twice and am always amazed at how old the Argentinian's camo clothing is. I'd suggest bringing a few sets of clothing and leaving it with them. They will wear it. As for knives, the blades they use for butchering are the size of large steak knives. It's impressive.

    WTS Proof Research Glacier Titanium 6.5 Creedmoor

    Good luck with the sale. I owned a Glacier Ti in 6.5 Creedmoor once. It was the most accurate rifle I've ever fired. Holy shit.

    I got a new trijicon accupoint- cool pic.

    That is the green reticle. I edited my post above to reflect that.

    I got a new trijicon accupoint- cool pic.

    AccuPoints are suberb. For most of my hunting, the post reticle is a handicap, but when I went after Alaskan brownies last year, the 3-9x40 Accupoint with green illumination got the nod. (FYI: I did not shoot this small bear, but I couldn't resist the photo op.)
