    KOWA Flip Up Protective Spotting Scope Lens Covers/Custom Lens Covers

    Would like to find a set of flip up lens covers for my KOWA TSN 770 series spotter. Any options out there? Tony, at MK Machining asked to start a new thread on “custom spotting scope lens covers” . Maybe Tony’s company can produce them if he doesn’t already have a model that will fit.

I also got a pair for backup , the Salomon Quest 4 GTX that I also like the fit of . Been going on some shorter hikes...

    NWT Moose

    The Lancaster’s are good people and a experienced outfitter family. I have been in the Yukon hunting 5 times but the remoteness of the wilderness in the Mackenzie Mtns in the NWT is a whole different level. I spent nearly 4 weeks up there with the Lancaster’s, it’s a wild and special place...

    Some concerns about what a reputable gunsmith said about my rifle

    You lost me when you said 4+ ounces on a 10+ pound rifle makes a large difference to you.

    What is your single best piece of advise before I hunt the first time Longer distance

    Practice at 400-500 yds on both windy and calm days. Get to know your rifle and the load you will be hunting with.

    Some concerns about what a reputable gunsmith said about my rifle

    On a 10 LB. rifle you will never notice the difference in a few ounces of additional scope base/ring weight.

    Some concerns about what a reputable gunsmith said about my rifle

    What country are you in? Why not use Talley steel bases and rings? I have them on most of my rifles and they perform without issue.

    Tripod Recommendations?

    You might be able to do a little better price wise if you purchase a set. I bought one adapter plate for my spotter and two quick release adapters (tripod and window mount) so I can quickly detach the spotter from the tripod and install on my window mount. I feel the OD pkg was $$ well spent.

    Tripod Recommendations?

    I bought the tall with the center post extension. Was just glassing up 3 coyotes on the Mtn behind the house with the tripod extended to about 6’. I also got the Outdoorsman pan head. Outdoorsman has some new models out now, but I bought the Gen 1 tripod and pan head and saved a few bucks on the...

    Lexus GX-460 or Hyundai Palisade experience/reviews?

    Just sold my 2014 GX460 with only 65k. Trouble free! Good 4WD system , quiet interior, okay mpg, always did recommended maintenance. Interior a little cramped but solid vehicle. I would buy another if it fit my needs.

    Tripod Recommendations?

    I recently went through the same research/shopping for a high quality tripod that I could use for standing and glassing along with being stable in windy conditions out west. I am 6’4”. Many here recommended the Outdoorsman . I wasn’t sure I would need a tripod that expensive. Real glad I...

    Gunbroker Experiences

    🔝 What AXLROD said. Handguns are different than shipping long guns. Consignment at a higher end gun shop that does good volume may net you similar results but longer sale time.There are some great sellers and buyers on GB , but there is a percentage that hit the buy button but don’t have the...

    What Nosler bullet do you prefer?

    Never lost a animal shot with a Partition, although several required several rounds . One Yukon moose required 5 shots front on before giving up even though he never moved after the first shot. Most have been one and done. 340 Wea - 250 Par 300 H&H - 180 Par 7mm/08 - 140 Par 300 Wea - 200 Par...
