    Help me pick a scope please

    This. Nightforce all the things. The Trijicon Credo HX 2.5-15x42 also a solid option.

    Optic Price Negotiation

    Call Doug at Cameraland (post #2 above). He WILL hook you up. I have bought several multi-thousand dollar optics from Cameraland and always got an exceptional price. They rarely can be beat.

    Anything I can do? Hunter Harassment?

    A fence made out of fallen timber and brush sounds mighty flammable. Be a shame if it spontaneously ignited after all that hard work.

    Anyway to deactivate leupold cds turret?

    I get that your season is coming up soon, but you are admitting to using a scope that is broken. You have no idea where your bullet is going to end up. If you can't afford a scope that works you should switch to irons or not hunt at all.

    Anyway to deactivate leupold cds turret?

    I would be more worried about a Leupold losing zero from the ride to hunting camp in the backseat of the truck. You have already proven your scope is broken because it won’t dial and return to zero. Why keep it?

    Aram Von Benedikt

    One archery season, about 10 years ago, I finished off a good sized (for California) buck that had been grazed in the neck by a teenager. When this buck came in front of my ground blind it was bleeding from the neck, but feeding calmly, and clearly was not lethally wounded. I double-lunged the...

    Middle Fork Salmon raft set up for float hunt

    What size tubes is that Star? The raised floor will definitely help. I too am contemplating a low water, late season MFS deer hunt/float some year. I was inspired by stumbling on this video a couple years ago. It's a suffer-fest for sure, and you need special skill set to survive the...

    Middle Fork Salmon raft set up for float hunt

    For low water MFS that frame/floor system appears heavy (and suboptimal for a multi-day hunting trip). However, for a day-tripping fishing rig, it looks baller!!! At low water, you want to be able to run the tubes and floor on the soft side of soft to grease over the thousands of rocks that...

    Garmin Xero C1: new chronograph

    I've skimmed this thread, and also read the online manual... does anyone know which velocity is reported? Is it muzzle velocity, average velocity over first 20 yards, or 20 yard velocity? The manual indicates a projectile must be able to travel at least 20 meters/yards for the system to work...

    Radios for the back country?

    2m or 70cm amateur radios are what we use... 100 mile + range if you are up high and using a good antenna to hit remote repeater. In deep canyons, it doesn’t matter what radio or antenna you have, you need to be more or less line of sight. Over rolling terrain with our 5 watt handhelds we...

    Scope adjustment lag

    Also, don't overheat the laser between two-shot groups.

    Scope adjustment lag

    I'd try a second laser and make sure it is calibrated against the first laser and squared up with the rectile. Shooting only one laser, you have no idea if that laser is correct. Coherent light can be tricky sometimes.

    Scope adjustment lag

    Can we get back to whether or not the hat brim is flat or curved? I think the hat may be the reason the rectile overheats after the first two shots are touching, but only on weekdays.

    Scope adjustment lag

    My rectile gets hot when I shoot two-shot groups so I let my hat cool for 30 minutes instead of the standard 15 minutes between skeet shots. It helps with my rectile dysfunction.

    Scope adjustment lag

    It's been a few pages since the rectiles have been mentioned. How were the rectiles today? Were the rectiles obstructed by the hat brim? I hate it when that happens.
