    Montana Rifle Company Junction 308Win Field Evaluation

    Any issues with the "Wood stock = wandering zero" thing?

    Is a 30 cal big game rifle needed anymore?

    Well that is a heck of a thing to read.

    Painless load development (mine)

    That's a relief to hear, as I'm always concerned that someone is going to get grumpy-pants with these discussions. Glad we are on the same page. So your in own words: "...basically none of that reloading “procedure” stuff matters for hitting deer vitals at 500 yards" leads me to the question...

    That's a wicked group! Do you have a photo of the non-virgin, non-chamfered, no-ball loads to contrast against?

    Favorite Chest Binos when riding?

    Late to the party on this one, but wanted to add a comment. Horses are dumb for all sorts of reasons. If there's a rodeo, I want to have some gear with me (InReach) in case the horse disappears over the ridge and I need some help. Same with my optics - I'd rather not have my high-dollar binos...

    Painless load development (mine)

    So you said the magic words: "Feel the difference." But does that translate to any functional difference at 500m? Especially if the wind is blowing strong that day? Please don't get the impression I'm calling you out - I'm not. My life sucks right now in that I'm running a business, dealing...

    Painless load development (mine)

    So hear me out before flipping chairs, but: Have you tried doing none-of-that? I'm mostly dumb, but I'm smart enough to tell you know your stuff, and are squared away. To me it would be interesting to see the contrast between all of the things/steps you're doing here, and a "None-of-that"...

    Equipment versus practice posts and Rifle practice/shooting

    This. This is how it's supposed to be done. Full gear, as if you were hunting and spotted something. Shooting offhand, with the riflestock butted up against your packs shoulder strap is a new experience for some. (LOP changes.) Having your bino harness smack you in the face as you drop to...

    Dave Ramsey has a new podcast out-it's titled "Stay off the Rokslide gear deals forum"

    100%. He's the equivalent of AA, but for consumer finance/money management. "Well just pay your card off monthly, dummy." 100% correct, as is "Well, don't drink your face off, dummy." However, with addicts, well... The rules are different. Where Dave gets "Controversial" is when his methods...

    Q&A for Leupold Mark 5 Field Evals

    Just be careful. The last guy who tried this died. Or something. (I'm still quite worried for the dude... Not sure what happened.)

    I see a Rokslide Special there...? Details man!

    Masculinity and Caliber Choice

    Probably a dumb question, but "More shots miss" is because of what? My assumption is it's simply the recoil/flinch factor?

    Kids rifle manifesto

    @SLDMTN just was on the rokslide podcast talking about the Hobbit Rifle he built for his kids. Might be worth looking at a TC Encore or even a CVA Scout As a fellow dad, he made 2 comments that stood out: - these rifles aren't light. Which is good. Cause lightweight rifles recoil a lot. Recoil...

    Rifle scopes you'd love to see Form test

    I'm going to bump this. Did Apex Optics get tested yet? @Ryan Avery

    The New Leupold Mark 4HD?

    One of my favourite Rokslide threads was the one with the dude who was asking about his buddy's Nightforce scope. Apparently it sucked, wouldn't hold zero, etc. A guy on the forum here offered to meet Dude. Said bring the scope, and he'd test it out. So Dude and his Buddy drove a long ways to...

    Why do I suck at long range?

    I'm late to the party, but: my bro, you're shooting 700m across a canyon. That's freaking hard. I'd say you're doing well, considering the circumstances. Wind calls are tough. Wind calls in mountains... hope you like head games.

    I'm starting to worry. :(

    Lever gun scope mount

    That's why binos were invented. Right took for the job etc. But we all do what we can with what we have at the time. The real question is did you connect on that one?
