    Freeze Dryed Meal Ideas

    Stew, Chowder (my favorite is Salmon, clam, crab with bacon), Breakfast Skillet would all be good meals to consider. So far, I haven't found any meal that has been a problem with freeze drying. I did a big batch of pulled pork barbacoa (lot of fat) that is delicious - I packed some corn...

    No More Peak Meals For Me After This Order

    Best price on Harvest Right freeze dryer

    I use my freeze drier (aka FreezeRay) a lot - we've got several apple & pear trees, raspberry, and blueberry plants so all of those have very low cost to justify the investment. However, making entrees likely still requires buying food - maybe your venison is free, but the rest of the stew...

    Zeiss "Lifetime" Warranty - refusal to stand behind its product

    Well, my hunting buddy has a new love for Zeiss. He chatted with a rep at the Portland Sportsman's show about the 2 sets of RF binos with the scratched coatings. Zeiss ended up replacing one of the sets with a brand new set. Great customer service!

    Need Suppressor Recommendation

    I called SilencerCo and asked about the SyctheTi for my AR-15. They said it will work, but not really recommended if stringing more than 12-15 shots a minute. The heat generated with that kind of use can break down the titanium. I asked about the Omega 300 and they said that would be a good...

    Arca Plate for a Swaro STC?

    I used the Outdoorsman's Arca Adapter Plate - just remove the 2 set screws - it has a smaller beveled top where it contacts the spotter... I did the blue loctite as well... https://outdoorsmans.com/collections/tripod-accessories/products/outdoorsmans-1-4-20-arca-style-adapter-plate

    Zeiss "Lifetime" Warranty - refusal to stand behind its product

    @Matt Cashell - maybe you misread my prior post? I did say the scratches were in the coating of the objectives... Zeiss said the coating scratches were due to improper lens care and therefore not covered under the 5 year no fault warranty. My buddy will be the first to admit he isn't the...

    Zeiss "Lifetime" Warranty - refusal to stand behind its product

    My hunting buddy had some Zeiss RF Binos that the objective coating developed scratches. Sent them in and Zeiss said "not covered by warranty and $700 to repair". The lens fix/replacement was going to take several months to complete, so he bought a second set for an upcoming hunt. One year of...

    Suppressor wait times

    Yes - I obtained digital fingerprints when I ordered the Scythe Ti (Trust) - Capital had everything on file so moving from the Trust to Individual was easy. I'll have to pay an additional $200 ATF tax to eventually transfer the Omega to my Trust...
