I'm sort of in your camp but came across these 2 dozen+++ threads related to dialing after sliding my rifle down some metal stairs w/ my current VX6-HD quite hard, unscrewing wind knob and likely letting out purge gas and was looking for a replacement as it goes to service prison (anything to...
I've read several dozen threads and the common response is SWFA, Bushnell, NF, March, and Huskemaw.
How would people rank other manufacturers in for occasionally dialing up to 600 yards (~16MOA).
Zeiss, Swarovski, Leupold, Vortex, Steiner, Trijicon. I know there is a lot of scope differences...
So my gun with a VX-6HD scope mounted on it slid down about 20 steps of a metal stairway of a tower blind and the wind knob unscrewed several threads. I guess the zero lock button caught on each step and unscrewed the whole knob slightly from the scope body! Screwed it back on and went to the...
Don't want to share specifics but I was near the Loma Alta Store north of Del Rio. Had less than 1000 acres to hunt but half of it had the mountain terrain.
Hunted a new property, and would have been great to be able to set up a point to point camera or trail cam to serve as a remote spotter. Any suggestions on something i could carry to the field with me, setup and run for a few days?
Half a mile to a mile connection distance would be great, not...
I'm coming from Houston area. As others noted, I think it will be hunting Post Rut, for West / SW Texas will let you know how it goes. I'll be around the Devil's River (a few miles away) area on a private ranch. Haven't hunted much up north, I need to head that way!
Great thread, I’ll be an hour north of Del Rio looking for Auodad on Nov 21st. Practicing my 300-500 yard shots and doing MTI program.
saw a good video today from KUIU on you tube regarding spotting and binos. They talked a bit about sheep, not specific to west texas but I think it was a...
Any thoughts on the standard ballhead that comes with the Promaster Tripod?
About to order the tripod one and curious if the ballhead would "work" as a rifle mount from a seated position. I cant decide if i should get a VA5 or even a leveling head to shoot off of as well as for spotting...
Thanks for that feedback. How long did that bedding job take from Mesa. Everyone is so backed up right now! Do you know if there is a factory load or handload sold online for the 190 berger? Never got into reloading...
Got a 300 wsm ridgeline and do not reload. I have some property cross canyon shots at 600 yards, what factory ammo would you recommend in various scenarios?
1- Cross canyon ~500 yard shots on deer, axis, rams, and hogs.
2 - Closer shots on Nilgai, planning on a hunt this winter
3 - other...
Just bought a 300 wsm ridgeline, what would you suggest as my first upgrade on that rifle? Did the stock upgrade save any weight? Already wanting to tinker!
