    Need a good, solid spotting tripod

    RRS 34L is the only tripod that has met my expectations for stability standing with a straight spotter. I have not tried their smaller series in all fairness, just went with the big boy. It's a little chunky though...

    Truck Batteries

    Deka/ East Penn. Be sure to look at cold cranking amp ratings on the AGM's in comparison. In some cases, flooded batteries are best suited for cranking. For instance in my boat, I have 3 AGM's and a single flooded with the flooded isolated as a cranking only battery and the AGM's to run the...

    Puffy jacket

    I also like the nano puff jacket and vest. The First Lite Brooks Sweater is great with a little more insulation and not too bulky to layer a shell over. Fit is pretty similar to a nano. I find myself wearing it a lot as a stand-alone jacket as well.

    Revic BLR10b Rangefinding Binoculars

    Anyone else find the focus wheel to be unusually stiff on their Revic's? I was hoping mine would break in a little with use, but it's still stiffer than a dead cat.

    Dog wont eat dry food well

    Natural Balance Duck & Potato. My dog is prone to allergies and full-on allergic to corn and wheat -the limited ingredient food has been working well for him. He pounds it whereas he turned others away. However, I do know people have varying opinions on limited ingredient food. The above is what...

    Revic BLR10b Rangefinding Binoculars

    Also in the underwhelmed camp with the glass after spending some time with them. If you are used to Swaro quality glass, I cannot see anyone being happy with them as a glassing tool, but they are the cat's ass for a killing tool. Like @huntnful , my NL's or STX still tag along.

    Swaro 95 on tricer or mini pan head?

    Are you looking at a straight or an angled spotter, and do you want to use it standing? Those 2 questions will include and or eliminate a lot of options. IME you can get away with less tripod with an angled than a straight, but I prefer a straight, and I like to glass standing.

    Rain pants

    I'm on year 2 with the SG M5 set and they have seen some heavy brush busting. So far, they are holding up well.

    Exo Mountain K4?

    I cut the elastic rim off of mine in a moment of frustration with a pocket knife- looks janky, but works well.

    September Truck must haves

    A simple item I always keep in my toolbox that hasn't been mentioned is a cheap 6' x 8' tarp. Nice to have something to throw down changing a tire in the rain and mud- nice to throw down in the snow when tossing chains on. Throw it away and get another for 10 bucks. I like a good tapered wood...

    I Pushed SOS and Got Rescued: Lessons Learned

    First- Glad the OP is alright, and I hope they figure out what's causing your symptoms. Second- I too am curious of the ultimate price tag for pushing the button. Not that it really matters when you need it. Maybe others who have can chime in on a rough order of magnitude.

    6 creed load dev, what would you do?

    Interesting you mention this. I started load dev for my 6 creed with Alpha and H4350 and a 108. It didn't impress in the speed department before pressure, switched to N-555 and got a significant speed bump with accuracy to go along with it.
