    Burris FF 3-9x40mm Drop Eval Q&A

    I believe you are thinking of ARC m10 rings. These are APA tru-loc rings. I did not have ring marks on my scope the last time i remounted my scope.

    Burris FF 3-9x40mm Drop Eval Q&A

    Impressed with this result, looking forward to the retest with the new rings. Does anyone remember when burris had the "zero lock" screw? it was a screw that you tighten on the errector housing that actually locked in the errector tube.

    AK Sheep Specific First Aid Kit

    To the guys carrying TQs it is critical to know how long a properly applied TQ can stay on before permanent damage occurs. 2-3 hours is okay; 6 hours is acceptable; beyond that not much is known. 16 hours is the longest I have heard of without permanent damage, sample size of one. Most bleeding...

    AK Sheep Specific First Aid Kit

    This is pretty much my exact kit. No percocet, I use benadryl (sleep aid) and ibuprofen. Anything overseas gets a few more altitude specific drugs and ondansetron.

    Group size evaluation

    Absolutely the accepted standard grows as the round count on groups gets larger. But you will notice the difference in multiple group sizes tends to be more consistent the more rounds are in a group. Example: If you look at five different 3 shot groups, one group might be 1", one group might...

    Medium Actions for hunting

    My work around to keep from losing mags on hunts- some extra guy line cord tied to the trigger guard. May be a useful hack for some.

    Got drunk and bought a rifle I don’t need

    Drinking beer is fun. Building guns are fun. You have found yourself in a win/win! Keep the browning just because. Build out the tikka, a 20” 6.5 prc would deliver a 147 eldm at around 2850 FPS out of mild recoiling set up. After market toys for the tikka are easy to find. Have fun with it!

    How bad I wish these would have worked for my feet! Perfect stiffness for steep terrain, great walkability for such a stiff boot, burly build quality, and I am a sucker for green. Unfortunately my supper low volume flipper feet just can’t make em work. Great pair of boots for anyone with medium...

    Resealing the Seams on a Kuiu Mt Star 2P

    I've used and abused this tent since 2016 and has served me quite well. A few episodes of high winds and lack of care on my end have stressed the seams enough they leak a little bit. What can I do to get them resealed to get me though a couple more season?

    Bleed control - personal program

    HAHAHAHA! HEY! I resemble that remark! I'm a medevac flight nurse and was a trauma nurse at a high volume/high acuity ED before that. I have seen hundreds if not thousands of traumas. My "med kit" is typically some duct tape and paracord. Maybe some meds. THIS.
