    Swarovski dS Riflescope Review

    The big difference is you can enter wind speed on the GEN 2. Some of the other settings like reticle and information displays are more customizable on the GEN 2 as well.

    Sitka Mid layer help

    The Heavyweight Hoody is definitely the most versatile out of the choices you have listed. That would be out top choice! The Apex Hoody is a great option if you are mostly bow hunting.

    Swarovski 95mm Objective Arca Plate Doesn’t Fit

    Is your RRS tripod head in ARCA or RRS mount? The RRS mount is slightly larger than a standard ARCA and will require the RRS specific place for your spotter. Unfortunately, the Swarovski base plate is about 0.07" to small to fit snugly in an RRS mount.

    What bag to get

    There are a ton of great options on the market, but we have been extremely impressed with Stone Glacier’s Chilkoot 15 degree bag. In our opinion, it’s the best down bag currently available.

    Should I up the bino budget for this deal?

    If you are going to stretch the budget on anything, it should be glass. A nice set of binoculars is arguably one of the most important pieces of equipment for western hunts!

    We will usually pack everything up and take it with us. One of the big benefits of trekking pole shelters is they are extremelly lightweight. Why not pack around a few extra pounds and be able to camp wherever you end up at the end of the day?

    How far have you jumped?

    They definitely can shoot well with a large jump! However, they are probably one of the pickiest bullets to seating depth out there. It’s all about finding the sweet spot. The VLDs are one of our favorite bullets!

    How far have you jumped?

    Factory guns are typically cut with very long throats because most bullets shoot fairly well with a large amount of jump. This is how factory rifles can be guaranteed to shoot 1 MOA with any high end factory ammo. However, if you are wanting to use projectiles with aggressive ogives that are...

    Boot questions first timer

    The only reason we would recommend going with a taller boot is if you will be hunting in the snow. Which state and season will you be hunting?

    Recommend a pack

    Take a look at the Stone Glacier Solo. It works great as a day pack but has enough room for overnight hunts.

    Spring Bear Montana

    You might get some hunting pressure out of Missoula, but in general hunting pressure during the spring bear season is relatively minimal. There are a pile of bears in that area of the state. A good spotting scope will be your best friend for spring bears; they can be very difficult to judge!
