    Christensen Mesa FFT off to a bad start.

    Same reason they continue to buy Ruger and Smith and Wesson.

    IPhone 15 or In reach ....

    I would be reluctant to have the confidence in the waterproofness of an I phone at this point. I interviewed the survivors of this case. https://www.fox10tv.com/2024/05/27/stranded-boaters-describe-treading-water-hours-before-rescue-off-dauphin-island/ They all had waterproof phones. Only...

    My rifle scope saga continues…

    Yep. Unless you want to roll the dice on the used market.

    Ouray County Colorado wolves?

    I have seen 3 black bears in that area. Their color was very much like a grizzly. I can see how people can think they are at a quick glance.

    Would you buy this scope?

    It's always nice when deer will pose for you long enough to switch back and forth between sighting implements.

    Would you buy this scope?

    I would want to know how well it performs between 25-30 minutes after sunset, under cloudy skies, under a canopy. I'd almost certainly want light in the reticle.

    Eye relief is appreciably better on the Credo.

    New Hunter, Looking for Scope recommendations below $500

    Very slightly over budget, but: https://www.eurooptic.com/Trijicon-Credo-3-9x40-SFP-w-Green-MOA-Precision-Hunter-1-in-Matte-Black-Riflesco.aspx If you go with the Huron, be sure to read the eye relief specs...

    Any of you have a list of your Firearms?

    Check out Gun and Trophy Insurance. They have good prices and a good reputation. No inventory or SN required. I do have both of my guns listed by serial number.

    Should you carry a firearm while bowhunting in Wyoming

    55 bear attacks in the USA each year. On the relative risk scale, that's insignificant. How many that insist on carrying a gun in bear country: Boat without wearing a life jacket? Allow themselves to drive distracted? Speed while driving? Use a tree stand without a harness? That's just...

    .223 for bear, mountain goat, deer, elk, and moose.

    While we are sharing anecdotes, I'll add this. I have been involved in far more protracted searches because of poorly placed shots than ineffective tissue damage from a smaller bore rifle. In all cases the poorly placed shots came from heavier recoiling rounds. The cool thing about this...

    22 scope - illuminated

    $500 and below for a budget? Do you want adjustable parallax?

    Burris Optics Overall Impressions/Reliability

    I have 5 Burris Scopes. 2 Droptine 4.4-14x42s, both on rimfires, 2 Veracity SFP and this pictured XTRIII 3-18. The XTR is unimpressive given the price. The reticle is useless below about 7-8X. Eye box is tight. It's meh in low light. Glass is good and it adjusts as it should. The Droptines...

    Non-chinese scope recommendation

    Why even concern yourself with MSRP? It's meaningless.

    Has anyone done a drop test on Leupold Vx5hd?

    If someone puts a scope on their gun for the purpose of killing game, and they kill game, the scope worked.

    Trijicon warranty

    If I could go back in time, most of my scopes would be Trijicon.

    Advice on a used truck 25-30k

    They seem to be as good as the others. I only have 75K on mine, but no problems at all. Just wear items. Tires, brakes and fluids.

    Advice on a used truck 25-30k

    If you shopped around you could likely find a brand new Ram Classic 5.7 for 30K after applying their current rebates.

    What caused the Rokslide shift to smallest caliber and cartridges?

    What load are you shooting to generate that kind of recoil energy?
