    Older 'New' SLC or spend a few extra and buy the EL?

    If he can get them in the $1400 ish range, that would be good. If the OP were to watch the classifieds here, he will likely find them in the $1400 ish range. ELs (SV versions) in the $1600 ish range.

    Older 'New' SLC or spend a few extra and buy the EL?

    $1200 is too much for a 15 year old SLC. And when you consider it is a magnification you don't really want, then that should tell you enough. Watch the classifieds here. 8.5 Els pop up regularly. I picked mine up this past fall, and they are wonderful. I don't see a lot of 8x SLCs here, but...

    Why not 7mm-08?

    We have killed muleys, antelope and a few elk with our 7mm-08s. When I built my first one, I transformed a Winchester Model 70 Westerner .243 into a 7mm-08. It is an absolute tack driver. Then my son earned a Browning ABolt in 7mm-08 by earning his Eagle Scout. It is also an absolute tack...

    I don't get any warm fuzzies that this situation is going to be resolved any time soon either.

    BH 209 Availability?

    I bought some 777 for $32/bottle the other day. About the best price I have seen in a while around here. Hard to swallow as I bought my last two bottles for $8/bottle at Walmart after the season ended and they were clearing it out. Those were the good "ol" days. By the way, Cabelas wanted...

    Crispi Colorado

    I wear a 9.5 in the Colorado, Nevada, Guide and Monaco, but the Summit in that size felt so HUGE. My foot was swimming in it. I totally figured I had the wrong size on accident, but the label said 9.5 and it was a regular, not wide. A year later I tried again. Same thing. So for me, the...

    Around town / everyday boots

    Crispi Monacos or Salomon X Ultras for me. Liked my Asolo Neutron's as well, but more boot than needed ever around town.

    What shooting position were you in for your last shot at an elk?

    Standing, but leaning into it with a good rest across a rimrock edge. 474 yards. Took a minute to find the right spot that was comfortable, but when I found it, I was rock solid. It was kind of like shooting from a bench.

    Eddie Bauer cirrusLite down jacket

    It would be nice if they would ship the ones we ordered in November before they put them up for sale again. I am still waiting, not a huge deal, but surprised that they have put them back up when they haven't been able to ship the ones from November. Several colors/sizes have been held up in a...

    CVA Accura MR-X Cluster Fudge

    I picked up an MR-X .50 caliber in Stainless/Black for Christmas. Fit and finish looks pretty good. Haven't been able to get it out shooting yet, but got the scope mounted and I am ready in that regard. The rail screws were pretty loose though. I did take them out, put a tiny bit of LocTite...

    Maven's CRS Riflescopes Jan2022 Release

    Excited to see how this scope performs. My experience with the C series from Maven is that they usually outperform their price range.

    BH 209 Availability?

    WOW!! That is crazy and interesting the chain of events you mention. I would agree that something fishy was going on there.

    BH 209 Availability?

    Natchez Shooting Supply has some on their site tonight. With Haz Mat and shipping it adds up in a hurry. But it is in stock.

    New .54 700ML owner looking for some advice

    It did kick hard on my TC Firehawk. 110 grains felt like my fillings were coming loose while at the bench. But 5 shot groups, all touching and making one large hole, with a peep sighted TC Firehawk at 100 yards, made me willing to deal with the pain. And who has ever noticed recoil in the...

    New .54 700ML owner looking for some advice

    Is that barrel a 1:28 twist? If it is in that neighborhood twist rate, I would definitely give the No Excuses conical bullets a try. They were extremely accurate in two .54 caliber rifles we had. Give them a try. https://www.muzzleloading-bullets.com/product/54-caliber-525-grains/ We lit...
