    NPS going cashless

    As an employer, the employees have a harder time stealing from you. As a customer, it's easier for them to copy my credit card number than take the rest of the cash from my wallet after I've left.

    Central Idaho Grizzly Restoration

    Yeah but if it comes down to it, I could probably beat up a wolf enough to make it leave me alone. Not so much with a grizzly bear. And while black bears are already out there and could beat me up, they're usually too scared to prove it.

    Direct Thread Suppressor: How Tight to Stay Tight?

    Grabbing and twisting bare-handed to 1.5 ft-lbs is how direct thread silencers got the reputation of coming loose. If you put any torque onto it with a wrench, it should be good.

    Tire chains on newer 1/2 ton trucks

    Don't grizzlies live right next door? If they wanted to be there, wouldn't they walk over?

    Why cant people accept the fact that some people dont need a drop tested scope?

    Burying it in the long range forum instead of the optics forum probably doesn't help

    Why cant people accept the fact that some people dont need a drop tested scope?

    At this point I'm pretty sure the entire drop test saga was a guerilla marketing campaign to help SWFA blow out all of their inventory of 1990s scopes before they close up and coast off into the sunset.

    The New Leupold Mark 4HD?

    I had never looked before today, but the rest of that site where it says "Plenty more at Leeks" looks to be VERY unsafe for work, so tread carefully.

    The New Leupold Mark 4HD?

    Even before that: fire one 10 shot group, take your rifle on a bumpy ride, and see what shot #11 does.

    Drop Test Pass/Fail

    Fixed There's also a Trijicon Credo 3-9 that partially passed, that might be where I got messed up. Agreed. I did "The drop test" with an ACOG TA31 and had no shift on the 3x18" and 3x36" drops, then shifted 7" on the 9x36" drop. That might count as a Fail, but I'm not exactly running to the...

    Mental Stability in the Field.

    That's why I hunt down in canyons. "Food, water and shelter are all at the top of this ridge? Quitting is going to be a lot of work, I'll just sit here a little longer and maybe something will walk by."

    The New Leupold Mark 4HD?

    I'm pretty sure the new Leopold will pass all of the reliability tests with flying colors just because I bought an NXS 2.5-10 two weeks ago.
