    How heavy is your tripod?

    Leofoto Ranger LS325C+LH40 ball head combo: 4.25 lbs. (identical to the Revic Stabilizer Hunter tripod kit, which is a rebranded Leofoto setup) The extra pound over a lighter setup gets you big gains in stability. If I was buying all over again I’d probably get one of the 4-section tripods...

    Hard case for Sig Cross

    Just checked the iSeries lineup and sizes, you can’t get a perfect fit as far as a “folded gun sized case,” but they make several carry-on sized cases that would fit the Cross plus other accessories like binos, ammo, etc

    Hard case for Sig Cross

    Look at SKB iSeries cases, they have one of the most extensive size lineups of hard cases. Very comparable to Pelican as far as features and quality. Bet you could find a near perfect fit.

    Elk Rifle

    I believe Trijicon is also on Expert Voice. I would recommend checking out their Credo and Tenmile options.

    “Short” Barrels, why not?

    Planning to rebarrel a .308 to 18” because at the elevations and terrains I will hunt with it and the loads I will select, it’ll cover my bases just fine.

    Nightforce Mil-R Reticle

    I have extensive time behind the F2 Mil-R and more recently the F1 Mil-C, both with the inverted ranging T. It’s completely unobtrusive during use, so don’t let that scare you off if you otherwise like the reticles.

    AIWB Comfort w/ Glock 19 or PDP Compact

    Yes. However, I see that as a desired trait. I actually want my holster to be able to rock and shift with my movement as that makes it more comfortable for me, and therefore easier for me to wear it often and for lengthy periods. And I haven’t found it to be a hindrance on drawing. That’s one...

    AIWB Comfort w/ Glock 19 or PDP Compact

    If you shoot a G48 well, that would be about as ideal an AIWB gun as any. I carry a G19 AIWB and would carry a G48 if I didn’t have such XL hands (I am way more comfortable with normal size grips as opposed to slimline pistols). 4” barrel length is ideal for AIWB in my opinion. I have arrived at...

    RFI wind river range - mid September.

    Made two September trips to the Winds, Cirque and Deep Lake. Both trips were during that 2nd to 3rd week timeframe. Be prepared for shoulder season weather, as already stated. Usually it has already been cold enough to reduce the skeeters. You’ll likely experience a mix of sun, wind, rain, snow...

    What ammo to put in my 10mm for protection?

    G9 Defense 95 gr 10mm EHP (“External Hollow Point”) is what’s loaded in my primary mag in the woods. https://g9defense.com/g9-10mm-95-gr-external-hollow-point/ I can’t offer any stories of performance on beasts, but I did get a chance to be the shooter for a ballistic demo of G9’s pistol...
